Schedule our bye week before each other EVERY SINGLE YEAR? I think this is the biggest matchup and rivalry in college football every year, Gumps just like to deny it. Guaranteed this game has the most ratings in the regular season this year. Oh and Gumps, LSU is coming to kick that arse, and yall know it. Yall scared...

biggest matchup does not equal rivalry - if we continue this trend for another 15-20 years then yes it could become one

Just because it is typically the most physical and important game in deciding the division does not make it a rivalry. That requires some kind of tradition.

Rivalry, maybe. Biggest rivalry, hell no.

Gumps don't want formidable rivals. They like the cupcakes.

Alabama hates Auburn more. Just get over it. Alabama is just LSU's new flavor of the month.

we aren't rivals, we are just constantly good teams.

I fricking hate Tulane, if they were still worth playing I wouldn't want a bye week before playing them

If you like being a rival that 0-4 in the last 4 games.

LSU is about to get doubled up this year. Auburn and Tennessee are Bama's rivals because they have respectable records against Bama. LSU has 25 wins and soon to be 50 losses Bama.

The fan bases don't really interact outside of all of the Louisiana oil field trash that vacation in Gulfshores. Bama and Auburn fans live amongst each other. There are tons Bama fans in Middle Tennessee and lots of Tennessee fans in North Alabama.

LSU would have to be more competitive over a longer period of time.

The game with LSU recently has become back and forth, but that doesn't mean it's a rivalry. I don't wish anything bad on the LSU football program, and I don't mind it when LSU wins games so long as it doesn't negatively impact us.

I want Auburn and Tennessee to lose every game, even if it's a volleyball game. I don't really care about what LSU does in other sports other than experiencing the glory of a Tiger Rant melt.

Saban had four options based on the SEC schedule he was given by the SEC office. Those would have been week 2, 4, 9, 12. Saban isn't going to take a bye after only three games and he isn't going to wait until he's played 11 so really the week before LSU was the only logical choice. We could be playing vandy in two weeks and Bama is still taking the bye next week.

Because it's the perfect time of the year for a bye week.
