You really should compare it to Joe McKnight
How so? Joe didn't go to a school LSU fans notoriously hate. He never had to play LSU, let alone annually. Only similarities I see is position and going to the dominant football power of the time.

I guess you would have had to have experienced the uproar surrounding his commitment. Landon Collins isn't in the same hemisphere.

You kidding? USC might have been the most hated team in Baton Rouge for the couple of years post-2003.

Eh, LSU fans were not very fond of USC around that time. But, I agree, LSU fans have a greater hate for Bama. As others have said, Collins' snarky comments after committing to bama had more to do with it than anything else. If LF is nothing else, he is humble. I don't think you would see the same reaction. It would have been a huge loss though.

Ehhhhh, short term memory here for you.
It could be argued before Saban got to Alabama there wasn't a school LSU fans hated MORE than USC over the 2003 "co-national title" fiasco. I remember those days and it wasn't pretty when USC was ever brought up. Joe McKnight going to USC pissed a ton of people off big time. It was way worse than when Landon Collins chose Bama.
