Most one-sided Rant rivalries:
Arkansas-Texas: the Hogs consistently ranked Texas as #1, the three Texas posters responded all ranked Arkansas third.
Arkansas-Missouri: 6 out of 10 Mizzou posters included Arkansas, generally as a mid-tier or lower tier rival, but no Arkansas fans actually ranked Mizzou as a rival. I do wonder if some if this is Arkansas simply not wanting to acknowledge Mizzou.
LSU-Texas A&M: seems that the Aggies want to replace Texas with LSU, all three rated LSU very highly. LSU did include them in response, but typically behind several other lukewarm rivals.

Curious why you guys feel so strong about Illinois when you guys are really only rivals for the bragging rights game and maybe wrestling? Outside of that there’s really no drama or consistency between the two programs.

The Arkansas/Texas series from 1958 to 1991 had 20 games decided by 7 points or less.

We don't really dislike you is the "problem." Yes, we are annoyed at our lopsided record against you but we don't dislike Mizzou like we actively despise Texas.
That may change as the years go by. Right now, for a large chunk of Arkansas, Missouri is mostly notable for Branson and vacations. To be fair, I suspect Arkansas is mostly notable for most of Missouri for duck hunting.
