DKW 86 7,437 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Personally think it is Auburn by a mile but interested in the LSU folks answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleDrill 178 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Honestly, I think for both schools it is just about the most important regular season game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUHansel 0 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 This has been a great rivalry. A lot of heat between the two teams and fans. Big game every year, the biggest in the conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKW 86 7,437 Posted September 11, 2006 Author Share Posted September 11, 2006 AU BY A MILE!!!!! Glad YOU said that. This is one of those strange, only Auburn can get into it situations. We have the: 1) Iron Bowl, bitterest rivalry you can imagine. 2) Oldest and really the best Rivalry I know. 3) Fiercest Rivalry we used to have. 4) Now, , a team that considers us MAYBE their biggest rival. That makes Four games you have to be ready to play in a season. I guess you just have to get ready for them all and play your best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up until the division split, the Vols were one of our biggest rivals -- and most enjoyable games. The 42-0 shellacking by UT at newly renovated JHS was the final straw in Doug Barfield's tenure.

geauxscott 0 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 AU BY A MILE!!!!! Glad YOU said that. I think most LSU fans will agree with me, but i also have AU ties and its the MUST WIN game for ME every year. Its become a rivalry because of the importance it has on getting to ATL. The loser has to count on the other to lose 2 more games in order to make it to ATL, which with the talent both teams have its not very likely. (but it is possible) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimlim 0 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Recently, yeah Auburn is LSU's biggest rival. Mostly because the winner usually goes to the SECCG, but also we've had some close games, and some blowouts in the past. However, historically Ole Miss and Tulane have been LSU's biggest rivals. But Tulane has dropped off and hasn't beaten LSU since 1982. In the 50s, 60s, and 70s LSU and Ole Miss had plenty of close games/blow outs with lots at stake similiar to LSU-AU now. In the 80s and 90s the Ole Miss rivalry died down due to both teams not playing very well. Since Ole Miss is playing poorly, yeah we hate them, but we dont consider them rivals anymore because they aren't on the same level as LSU. Auburn is on the same level and so much is at stake which is why AU is our biggest rival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For toughness sake, I'm glad we don't have to play Florida and Tennesee every year, because you are right. That would be 5 rival games a year. Which is tough for any team to get through. It makes me feel a little bit for Georgia. They have a bunch of teams that get 'up' for their game each year. 1. Georgia Tech 2. Florida 3. Auburn 4. Tennesee 5. South Carolina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltyone 0 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I grew up hating Ole Piss, but recent years have turned you guys into the game I circle in red each year. I came down in '04, and hope the outcome is a little more favorable for us this time around. The way I see it, winner takes the West. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
