Well at least around here, Aggy, Arkansas, and Ole Miss sure seem to rate you as important rivals.
Aggie and Arkansas were forced on us when they came into the league. The Ole Miss rivalry died years ago to everyone but the grey haired fans. Our biggest "rival" is whichever team presents the biggest obstacle to get to Atlanta. Obviously, in recent years that has been Alabama. Prior to Saban it was Auburn. And Florida was a huge thorn in our side during the Spurrier and Meyer eras.

How old are you? Both of these schools had played LSU a significant amount of times before joining the SEC. Arkansas around 35 times and A&M around 50. They’re your 6th and 7th most played teams all-time. There’s nothing forced about those games at all.

Arkansas and Ole Miss hated each to the point that they refused to play each other for 20 years.
