Recently Bama but I won't care when Saban leaves

I'm glad to see LSU fans finally admitting this. We had a couple "big" games but it was never a rivalry. LSU to Bama is Ole Miss and State. LSU didn't see Bama as a rival either until Saban and the fallout from that.
Bama's rivals are AU and UT and have been so ingrained over decades as so that it'snot possible to change.

Before the game in 2011, Eli Gold was on ESPN and was asked about the rivalry with LSU. He said there isn't one. Big game, yes, most hated team on the schedule, not even in the same stratosphere as AU and UT.
