….Alabama doesn't consider Tennessee… their biggest rival.
Classic - Alabama fan tells you “I hate Tennessee.”

Bama. They just won’t admit it.
Yea, for a VERY distant 3rd. There is no way LSU would ever in any universe ever top the Iron Bowl or 3rd saturday. Why would Bama admit little brother is a rival and not LSU if it wasn't true? The last thing any Bama fan wants to do is give Aubie any creedence but the facts are the facts. Auburn is numero uno forever.
To answer the question I don't think LSU has one. Not where the hate is reciprocated both ways.

Tennessee and LSU both consider Alabama their biggest rival, but Alabama doesn't consider Tennessee and LSU their biggest rival. Pretty impressive on Alabama's part!
I've talked to many a gray haired Alabama fan who definitely consider Tennessee to be their biggest rival.

One fun side story, in the film of the Cannon punt return, there appears to be a ref running down the sideline as Cannon is making his way down field. But he was no official. Instead, he was an Ole Miss fan who didn’t have a ticket to the game, and couldn’t find one, so he went back to his car, put on a ref’s jersey which he had because he was a high school ref, and proceeded to walk unchallenged into the stadium through the gate where the officials entered.. He watched the game from the sidelines, and is immortalized in the film of one of the most famous and iconic plays in college football history, as he is seen running down the sideline next to Cannon. True story.

I have attended multiple games at Arkie, OMiss, and A&M in multiple sports. A larger percentage of their fans seem to hate LSU than any other team we play.
LSU does not have a main rivalry mutually agreed on. Just happened that way.

Only because of Saban is that a heated game for the fan base.
Once he retires, they will become an afterthought.
Especially when they struggle to stay relevant post Saban

“Refs hate LSU”
“ LSU hates the REFs”
It’s either that or
LSU is their own biggest rival

I might be in the minority on this but I don’t think Saban’s LSU connection has been the direct cause for hate in the rivalry for years now. I remember it mattering way more when Les was around during my time at LSU. And obviously it mattered a ton in the late 00s when the wounds were fresh. But I think a lot of that was purged in 2019 (at least for me it was) when LSU beat Saban en route to the greatest season ever.
I do think it’s going to drop off as they inevitably decline from the peak Saban years, and especially that it’ll drop off if they aren’t a permanent opponent and thus a potential roadblock to titles every year.

Two things are likely to happen before ole piss wins a natty.... LSU winning ANOTHER National Championship and Bigfoot walking into my front yard, then dropping a deuce.

However, the next week, LSU lost its next SEC game against Tennessee at Knoxville, 14–13, when Cannon's attempt at a 2 pt conversion failed.
All the old timers and a grainy film says he scored.

In this order:
1-Bama (have always hated the Gumps even when growing up in OH and a Buckeye fan)
2-Ole Miss (hate them too but also have a soft spot deep in my heart for the Rebs. PS, my cardio doc told me he found my heart butty wife disagrees)
3-aTm (can't stand the arrogant assholes that have never won anything but the goat-frick contest)
