That rivalry should’ve been continued too. I’d rather get them than Vanderbilt.

This is a really good rivalry that probably was on the verge of returning to old heights with Kelly and Freeze.

They could’ve swapped A&M with lsu to keep it going. Quite strange.

It’s lucky for Auburn but a shame for college football fans nationally.

I’m going to miss playing you shite heads.

LSU Auburn in the 2000s was THE series in the SEC. So many memories.

I was a student 2001-2006, LSU AUBURN in those teams was as hard hitting as it gets.

Throw Tubberville trolling LSU non stop and it was incredible.

Since 1992, Auburn has been LSU’s most balanced rival. We had some really epic games won by both sides.

I would trade any of our opponents outside of Bama/UGA to play LSU.

Would rather play the traditional games than get an easy schedule

Just feels like a normal schedule. We were scheduled for Norman anyway in our OOC and the rest of the schedule just looks like business as normal.

All this crapola on the rant and I just don't see how 8 games should be so frightening.

2006 was the hardest hitting game i have ever witness in JHS. BOTH sides were popping pads so loud the crowd would go BOOOM after every hit. It was amazing.

I’d rather compete against great teams than have a stroll in the park like Saban was demanding.

The AU/LSU game has been fantastic from '88 onwards but let's not forget that expansion in '92 made the rivalry possible.

LSU and AU played only 8 times over a nearly 50 year period from 1943 to 1991.

There was no rivalry until divisional play (and one magical earthquake game) made it into one.

Perhaps this expansion will lead to some new fun matchups. Add a 9th game in and we'll see Auburn every other year.

Something has to give when you add more teams. Auburn and Florida were historic rivals. That rivalry was initial preserved despite expansion in '92 but eventually got scrapped when we slimmed from two permanent cross division opponents down to 1.

That 9th game with no divisions would allow Auburn to play Florida or LSU every year, right?

How do we not get Florida??? We’re supposed to play them in 2012 and that got taken away. Now we were supposed to play them in 2024 and that got taken away too. Why do they hate this matchup?!?
