For LSU, it depends on age/when you went to school.
Older LSU fans -->Tulane/Ole Miss
Early 40s to early 30s --> Auburn
Early 30s and below -->Alabama/Florida

2. Texas A&M
This is a fair and honest assessment, although I'd probably place Arkansas ahead of A&M at this point.

Agreed.

This is an incorrect assessment...when did Auburn all of a sudden vanish? Florida? Why is A&M thrown in the mix. Da fuq?

You're full of shite. I didn't grow up in Alabama. I don't like Auburn but I have far more disdain for Tennessee. I'm sure fans from the state hate Aubie more but not all of us.
Furthermore I made a thread one time recently on the Bama board asking which series a poster would choose to keep if forced between IB and TSIO. The replies were very close.

It's true. If it wasn't for me, Patton would nuke the state of Tennessee.

Sadly, I included Alabama in my assessment. I see you firmly have your papa at number one...

I actually don't agree with you here. I think in terms of all rivals it matters where you're from and where you live. Some Auburn fans or students from West Ga, or the Atlanta area probably hate UGA more because they have to deal with UGA fans more often. I know that's the case for UGA.
Atlantans hate Tech, West Ga hate Auburn, south Ga hate UF, North Ga hates UT, and Augusta area probably hates SC. Obviously that isn't an absolute, but I think it's pretty accurate in general. It also depends a lot on age.

Really it depends on the fan; half the fanbase hates MSU more while the other half hates LSU more a lot of it depends on family.

That is true

but you're an Ole Miss fan now

A&M doesn't have a rival

Do you not know how many LSU & A&M Alumni work together in Houston? Both are huge players in the oil industry. We've played them nearly the same amount of times as Arkansas & Florida without ever being in the same conference until 2012.
Florida is nearly 600 miles from Baton Rouge. We've had a great series but they're 3 damn states away. I wouldn't consider them a true rival, you never hear students/alumni/fans say they HATE Florida. Overall, our two fanbases aren't that intertwined. Again, great games but losing to Florida doesn't hurt as bad as a loss to Ole Miss or Alabama.

Auburn's 3 rivals historically are Alabama, Georgia, and Florida. The SEC putting Auburn in opposite divisions from both Georgia and Florida has basically killed the Florida rivalry
I wouldn't say the rivalry with Florida is dead. It's on hiatus. It's going to be an intense atmosphere in 2019.
