It's a shitty rivalry. NOBODY outside UT and Bama care about it. And that's the problem.

Only commenting because an apparent Bama fan started this thread. And I can't speak for all LSU fans. I don't like it because everyone has to have a permanent opposite division opponent just to protect Bama/Tenn and Auburn/UGA. All the other cross division games are forced rivalries. LSU/Florida is exciting and usually has a lot at steak but still has not materialized into a real rivalry. It wasn't as big a deal when you played three opposite league opponents a year but now it's just dumb that you play in the same league as teams that you only meet head to head once every six years.

Because you clowns try and act like the bama v ut game is worth a damn every year. And since no one gives a shite about or even watches it except bama and ut fans people get tired of gumps always trying to hype it up and manufacture some give a damn, from themselves or anyone else.

I understand the argument that the game screws up scheduling. I can go along with that. I just see a lot of comments over the last couple years trying to ridicule the idea that it's a rivalry.

I don't see why anyone would care who our rivals are, but I understand why people are annoyed that it causes scheduling problems.

As for the 9 game SEC schedule mentioned earlier, Saban has been more outspoken in favor of that than any other coach I have heard.

And please don't overlook my not-so-subtle jab at Ole Miss.

A lot of LSU fans (and others) don't know how serious your rivalry is with TN. Until I stayed in a B&B off campus at Bama and learned from one of your devout fans how much you hate each other, I had no clue either.



I get a down vote for my comment?! Really?

Whatever the reasons, we all play in the best conference in College Football, which is saddled with a laughable schedule structure at present. 9 conference games can't come fast enough.

Prior to bamas current streak, didn't UT get the series to within a couple 3/4 games?

And I don't even care if y'all play those schools every year but why is everyone else locked into this? It's not even about Florida being better than UT or UGA either. LSU has won 5 of 6 against Florida. Hell Les was 3 and 3 against Urban.

I doubt many people here care about the game, beyond a few jabs here and there. It is all about the scheduling bullshite.

I believe Miles is in favor of the 9 game schedule, as well. I would imaging that UGA, UF, USC, and UK would resist more, since they have yearly home and home OOC rivalries. One less easy home game puts a squeeze on them.
