State and LSU don't play this weekend bro.
Just about everyone in college baseball would disagree with you. But I'll let Aaron Fitt's quote speak for itself:
https://www.greenvilleonline.com/story/sports/college/clemson/2014/03/04/clemson-usc-nations-best-baseball-rivalry/6001723/
quote:
“This is the premier rivalry in college baseball,” Fitt pronounced with no reservation late Sunday evening. “Most people who follow the sport nationally would probably agree with that.
“The intensity, the fan support, the facilities, the tension, the emotions – all of it is just fantastic.”
“No rivalry has the history or the whole package or the competitiveness year after year,” Fitt said. “Even though South Carolina has dominated in the won-loss column lately, it seems like the games are always close. It’s not like we’re watching a bunch of 10-1 games here.”
quote:
SEBaseball.com's Mark Etheridge has called it "college baseball's most heated rivalry,"[70] and Baseball America's Aaron Fitt has called it "far and away the most compelling rivalry college baseball has to offer." LINK

I'll disagree. The State/LSU history is fantastic and literally built SEC baseball, which led to NCAA baseball as we know it. There isn't a more heated rivalry. If you find an LSU fan who loves Polk and Cohen, or a State fan who loves Maneiri and Bertman, I'll suck your dick personally.

Quoting anything by Aaron Fitt should be a criminal offense. This is the same guy that says LSU-Tulane is a top 5 rivalry. There are plenty of fans who have been around longer than 20 years that will call bullshite on this.
FSU-Miami
Long Beach State-Cal St Fullerton
USC-UCLA
Rice-Texas
Are all examples of rivalry games, depending where you live, are considered better than USC-Clemson. Baseball is more territorial than football and basketball. People ain't just going to sit down and watch two college baseball teams because of a heated rival(There are exceptions to every rule, die hard fans for example).
Hell, back in the early days OU and Withcita St. was nasty.
