1. Memphis- Kind of the silent Rivalry. The teams have refused to schedule each other since the 1980's and their meeting in the 2008 NCAA tournament in which #1 Memphis came back to squeeze past Mississippi State is why they are #1 on my list.
You've played once in 30+ years and that's somehow a rivlary?

We've always sucked in basketball so our rivals are the other teams that historically suck too like MSU, Auburn, and LSU.


The only rival you could say we have outside of them is Memphis and that's strictly because of how close we are to them. They beat our asses Cal's first 4 years there then we beat them once in the Pyramid and Cal cancelled the rest of the scheduled series

Our rivals are the same in all sports.

1. Ourselves
2. Auburn
3. Tennessee.

All other claimants are wannabes.

Yeah, I don’t think any of those except Bama would be considered a basketball rival. Just because we played them in the NCAA Tourney and maybe a few regular season game doesn’t make them a rival.

USC cause we usually play them twice in the regular season plus meet them in the SEC tourney semi-regularly

It would be Kentucky but we took a big step back after Nolan got canned.

LSU is probably up there, more so in basketball then football. Missouri is the best SEC answer but both schools have really underachieved recently.

Texas is the big rival in everything from basketball to football to beer pong.

Not that we actually pose a real threat to anyone but in Bball our only real rival is Georgia Tech.

I think Arkansas’s rivals out of conference in basketball for the last 25 years or so have been OU and Oklahoma State. In conference it’s been LSU, the Mississippi schools and KY (in the good years)
