It’s complicated.

Florida dominated us in the 90’s. Bama dominated us from 2011-2018 (and before my time), so we are less than fond of both of your respective programs.

Bama represents the single biggest obstacle for LSU to overcome in order to play for a championship in a given year.

The LSU-UF series has been very competitive the last 20 years or so. Add to the the fact that Foley is a prick and Alleva is an incompetent buffoon (the hurricane fiasco), and that series is as heated as any.

Both are great rivalries IMO. Playing UF every year is one thing I like about the current division structures and permanent opponents. It’s much harder for LSU to get to the playoffs having to go through Florida every year, but the competitive games make for better entertainment.

I hope LSU can have similar success against Bama in the next decade or so.
