Actually, some fans seem to think that too many of our games are considered rivalries. (Ole Miss, Auburn, Bama, Arkansas, Tulane)
The Arkansas game was forced rivalry.

Of course it was forced. Someone had to play for a boot!

I pretty much want every team not named LSU to lose every game. I realize that's highly unlikely.

The LSU student section started a Gueax to Hell Ole Miss Geaux to Hell chant at the Basketball game.
All 35 of them at least.

I root for Michigan every game. Then, I hope we beat them by 100. The rivalry/games are a lot more fun when both teams are good. Plus, getting to crush their NC/Big 10 title hopes is a lot more satisfying than just beating them when they're pathetic.

Of course, it's not like I shed a tear when they didn't make a bowl the past two years.

It always feels better to win when they are having a good season. I like for OU to have a good season so it feels better when we win, but I hope TAMU, TT, and Baylor lose every game.

Not true at all, just too good to have one with Ole Miss or Arkansas.

I think Ole Miss and LSU is a pretty strong rivalry at this point. Take out the Orgeron years and it's not a total wash. I know you guys lead but its not like 100-6 like Bama's record against us is.

I love to see them lose but it feels so much better when you beat them when they are on top.

Do you want your rival to be good only if your team is also doing well?

Always, Always, Always lose!!! What's your opinion MedDawg?

You're just not a big enough program and you haven't won anything of consequence in almost 50 years. It's a fun little game but only because it's funny that you hate us so much.

I just enjoy beating them, whether they are good or not is of no concern to me. No one cared that Bama was horrible when they beat them and shouldnt have. When a power is down you have to stay on top of them or they will eventually gain the upper hand on you. Bama needs to beat LSu and Auburn at everything they can related to football.

Your arrogance is amusing. A fun little game? You wish. Ole Miss-LSU is a big deal to both fanbases.

It's the 4th biggest SEC game (Behind Bama, Auburn and Florida) for LSU fans under the age of 65 and sometimes the 5th if we play either UGA or Tennessee.

So no, it's not that big of a deal for us.

It's bigger than the Arkansas game for us though so you have that.

I know a lot more LSU fans than you. None of us think about the Ole Miss game until the week of.
