I admit that when the A&M-LSU game was added to rivalry weekend, I thought it seemed a little forced. Kind of an “oh, these schools are from border states, we’ll match them up because they ought to hate each other” sort of thing. And though there was a little back-and-forth on the board here, and both sides paid some lip service to how the game used to mean something a long time ago, it was nothing particularly noteworthy.

But you know, after this weekend I think this thing may have some legs. I’m glad to see such a heartfelt, bona fide hatred developing between the two fanbases. It really warms my heart. Hate on, haters!

I dont consider aTm a rival. I dont really care too much when we play them. LSU has no rivals. No matter how many fake arse times the SEC tries to invent one.

So not a rivalry.

A tight, seven overtime game can certainly help jumpstart it.

The LSU/Arky game was forced when they joined. Back in the late 80’s and early 90’s, LSU playing A&M was a big deal and a great way to start the season. If you live in the Houston area, there is a rivalry between the two and it’s funny that many don’t won’t to admit it.

I never have been around aggies. My brother in law lived in League City for a time and he said they are obnoxious like Ole Miss, but I dont think that makes for a rivalry.

LSU has no rivals because as soon as one develops, y’all run away.

If you wont call it a rivalry, it's definitely a blood feud because we know swamp kitties will be seething for the rest of their lives about it

A&M has no rivals because we have no equals.

Aggies by and large seem to be decent people. But, no, LSU is not their rival. Texas is, and always will be, A&M's rival. Leaving big brothers shadow doesn't change that.
