You're probably pretty young.... There's a lotta hate you surely know nothing about,
and it has EVERY INGREDIENT for a huge and growing rivalry in future.
Much bad blood, border state, recruiting battles, history, culture...when A&M wins a few more, it's full on.
There's no "try" to it!
Nope not young
Been in the stands for plenty of A&M - LSU sporting events Before A&M' joined the SEC
Was in stands at Olsen Field as LSU double dipped the Ags in 1989 in the regional finals
Was at Kyle for football games vs LSU in 1989,1991,1993 and 1995
Was in stands in Omaha as LSU beat the Ags in the 1993 college World Series
Was in Baton Rouge for the 2004 baseball super regional
Went to an A&M - LSU baseball game in the SuperDome in 1995
Was at the 2010 Cotton bowl
Remember very well as LSU beat the Ags in the 2nd round of the 2005 NCAA basketball tournament on a heartbreaking 3 pointer late in the game
So again I've seen my share of A&M - LSU sporting events and yes it's a regional interest.
But it is not a big rivarly
Most in here won't admit it but not the same as the A&M - Texas game was
That is evident because we couldn't even sell out football games at Kyle vs LSU and neither A&M or LSU fans wanted to travel on thanksgiving for football game.
Neither of those wouldn't happen for A&M vs Texas
