There is no argument. LSU and OM have hated one another for decades, far beyond the normal flow of grudging respect for conference foes. For much of the past 3 decades, it was rare for both teams to be contenders, largely due to the decline of Rebel football after the 70's, though LSU had a couple of dry spells along the line. If OM sustains several years of being a contender along with LSU, we may well see the national public ranting about the rivalry once again.



Am also under 50 and also didn't even know Ole Miss and LSU was a "rivalry". Both teams are pretty mediocre historically, so maybe that has something to do with it. There is never really anything at stake.

I didn't know OM and LSU were rivals either. I thought MSU was their rivalry?

Historically, Ole Miss is the SEC's a-hole. They suck dick for decades and then manage a good season or two. Rinse and repeat.

Um, check the record books. LSU can't compete with Bama or a handful of others historically, but they are a top 10-12 program all time.

Are you like 11 years old? LSU is far from mediocre historically. Try #9 all time according to CFB Data Warehouse. Way to show your homerism bigtime.

Someone else stated it, but it does bear repeating, that LSU, like UT UGA and 'Bama is "Historically" one of the winningest FBS schools ever. Around 11th last time I looked. Only 'Bama has won more wire-service national titles than LSU(tied with UF)in SEC history. I believe they currently have the 2nd longest bowl-eligible streak in the nation among power 5 conferences. Therefore, your statement may be factually mediocre but LSU football certainly is not. Hell, historically speaking, OM football is better than average so you're wrong about them too.
