The Bulldogs are LSU’s longest rival and only Ole Miss has played the Bulldogs more times than LSU. The 2016 game marks the 110th time the two teams have played each other. And thanks to a stretch between 1934 and 1970 in which every game in the series but three was played in Baton Rouge, there is no place outside the state of Mississippi where the Bulldogs have played football more often than Baton Rouge.
With so much history, there are many games to choose from when picking a subject for this week’s history article. Older MSU fans fondly remember that five year period in 1980-1984 when MSU dominated LSU, including a pair of wins at Tiger Stadium during that stretch.
