re: LSU Fans Still Talking About Arkansas Rivalry

Most of the Arkansas/LSU games were played before 1956. At that time, LSU had played Arkansas 12 times more then they had played Texas A&M. I believe Jack Mitchell, who only coached Arkansas for 2 years, refused to renew the series after the last game. From 1957-1991, which were the best years in Arkansas football history, the teams only met once, with LSU winning and denying Arkansas the 1965 national championship by doing so.

I'm not young, but I'm too young to remember any of that. When we joined the SEC, I didn't realize we had ever played LSU and thought they were a basketball school. I can remember thinking how humiliating it must have been for Texas A&M to lose to LSU in the eighties, because the Tigers seemed so beneath them.

So, I don't really care if LSU fans consider it a rivalry or not, because I, too, think the whole setup is odd. I know Bazzel meant well, but LSU fans are kidding themselves if they don't think he has a personal stake in his ridiculous boot trophy.

However, I do think many Arkansas fans felt a need for a rival after joining the SEC, so we'd have something to replace our yearly hate-fest with Texas, and I've never minded watching that displaced hate being taken out on LSU every year.

LSU's rival is Tulane.

Arkansas' rival is Texas.

Fact.

Tell the truth, you saved the text messages from your ex, didn't you?

You should be mad and making excuses, your program has been consistently battling for the worst in the west for how many years now? Last time you were in a SECCG you were coached by Houston Nutt

Super Bowl

Speaking of Super Bowls- we play you next season right after yours against Alabama again. Will y'all will be curled up the fetal position crying then too? Silly question, of course you will.

I can only imagine.

With the downward trend of lsu football I'm not even sure I dislike them all that much anymore. It used to be fun to dislike them but when you consider the fact that they're just an 8 win ball club and likely to finish last in the West next year, just not sure I can get up for it like I used to.

We might have considered it more of a rivalry than LSU in years past, but this downward trend of which you speak will change that. Seriously. I'm bored with LSU, Miles and the stupid fricking coonass fans.

Go back to the mountains and cook you some more crystal meth you inbreaded piece of trash. Enjoy your two sec wins in the past 3 years, because even the sun shines on a dogs arse every once in a while! Next year order will be restored in the west! Lsu will be back on top and not coming down anytime soon!!!! Believe that little piggy!!! LSU Tigers 2015 NC!!!!
