This forum is a perfect example of how LSU/A&M aren't rivals

yea, thats why there are all those A&M topics started by LSU fans.
That's actually because there aren't any threads started by aggy when aggy loses. LSU fans at least try to keep you in the room since aggy tucks tail and runs. All the heavy mouth breathing towards LSU before the game and crickets after the game. aggy should be grateful.

I suppose this forum is a perfect example of how UCF Sad knight made UCF a rival of Alabama too, right?



Get it? Probably not. >>>>>>downvote over there.

If Okie St. decides to stop playing Oklahoma (which would be suicide for them but people make stupid decisions when they are pissed off) than that clears the boards for LSU vs Oklahoma to be the rivalry weekend game which would be a ratings bonanza. Nationally you'd have to think it would dwarf whatever ratings Oklahoma vs Okie Lite gets.

The fact that you're comparing these two scenarios is laughable

the fact that you’re comparing LSU program to Aggy program and putting them in as end of season rivals is pure comedy.

LSU
3 national titles in 20 years.
Sec champions
8 wins vs aggy.


Texas aNm
None of that up there.





You’re right. It’s laughable. But keep spamming up the board with LSU OPs, y’all.

The real issue for LSU is you haven't had a true rival since Tulane was a good program. You have history with A&M. You have history with Bama. You have history with Ole Miss. You have history with Florida. You have history with Auburn. None of those schools would consider you their primary rival though. For most you aren't even their 2nd rival. It's just not something LSU has in their culture the same way other schools do for a variety of reasons.

A&M and Texas are rivals. Our fight songs are about each other. They have a mascot named Bevo because we branded it 13-0 and they had to do a quick fix with a running iron. We have Bonfire and they have a Hex Rally in response. We are 90 miles apart and started playing in 1894. The links between the schools are endless.

Texas tries to act like OU is their real rival yet look at threads here. OU and Texas fans defend each other but you get regular threads here about how annoyed tRant is with A&M and Texas fans ruining threads with our hate.

For A&M in the near future it will be Texas as the main rival followed closely by LSU and Arkansas. We actually have more history with Arkansas and they freaking hate us as evidenced by the sig bets and vitriol when that game was played this year. Arkie also HATES Texas. The DFW area has a TON of Arkie folks.

A&M and LSU will always have somewhat of a rivalry because we overlap the same recruiting territory. Traditionally A&M has poached Louisiana and LSU has poached East Texas and Houston. In some years one school dominates the other. We have a lot of shared culture in terms of Ag and Engineering focused schools with a lot of folks in the oil business and the Houston area has a TON of LSU folks.

TLDR with Texas coming the LSU rivalry will take a backseat for A&M even if a lot of Aggies hate Texas so much they don't want to admit it. Same with Texas and OU.

Back up.

One UCF fan trolling Bama fans here does not constitute what complete fan bases would call a rival.


Now


Powers well beyond us, to include every fan here, decided to dump the Arkansas/LSU game played on rivalry weekend for a A&M/LSU game. You don't even have the balls to admit, why they did!!!

THEN you have this place, where every LSU fan says Aggies are obsessed with them and then Aggies state the opposite. Both fan bases seem be correct the majority of the time.

I wake up every morning, look at tRant, and here lately its been nothing but Tigers making threads about A&M. 3 or 4 threads each morning on the first page!

Lol this is so many words to convince yourself that we're eachother's biggest rivals. I'm sorry, but we're not. OU is the bigger rival, and just about any student on campus or anyone in Austin would tell you the same (hence why the conference move has Texas and OU attached while we just let y'all run away in 2012 without a second glance).

Looking forward to the game coming back though

Wow you’re dumb.

No one even remotely mentioned anything about Arky LSU rivalry.

THEN you have this place, where every LSU fan says Aggies are obsessed with them and then Aggies state the opposite.

But only one is a worthwhile program. And most….hey back up……the overwhelming majority of them are started by Aggy fans on an LSU/sec from. That =sessed
quote:

I wake up every morning, look at tRant

Did you really just admit that in a post talking about obsession. That=sessed.

Not smart.



Basically I am still keeping aggy-to-LSU at the UCF-anklebiting-at-bama scenario until you can adequately separate yourself from…..

LSU.
-national Championships
-8-2 record vs aggy since you bolted from Texas rivalry (we know why).
-sec championships.
-division championships


Aggy
None of that up there.

"Texas Fight" was literally a response to "Farmer's Fight". Hell you even took your name "Longhorns" from our original Yearbook.

It does crack me up how you try so hard to act like OU is your rival as you blow each other on this site on a daily basis.

Lol I guess I'm missing that part on this site. If the two are ever in agreement, I think it's typically the result of collective laughter at A&M's arrogance despite A&M not accomplishing literally any top 4 finish in any of the big 3 sports for over 80 years. And yet aggies act like they're some powerhouse that demands respect from those who actually have achieved something before. It's comical, really.

We're each other's biggest rivals because the two teams have had a lot riding on the result of that game in the past. Texas A&M was honestly hurting our strength of schedule by the time they were finished in the Big 12. As a student, that game in October was a much more enjoyable experience and bigger game than our respective late November match ups against our reject schools Texas a&m and Oklahoma State.

Sorry you're upset about it, but that's just the flat truth.
