I'm fairly certain that all the pairs, from KK to 22, have an equal chance of drawing you out.

some of my party poker opponets think that 7-2 is the best hand against A-A, twice I have had opponets call monster preflop raises with 7-2 when I had A-A

n4cer1 is correct, the answer is the other aces.

but if your question was about what non AA hand has the best chance, it's 76s or 65s, i can't remember which, but it's so close i doubt it matters. offhand i would say 65s

ANSWER
 
The best hands versus your black Aces are:

1) red Aces (pick'em)
2) 65 suited in a red suit (about a 3-1 dog; couldn't get to
two dimes.net!)

I couldn't believe it when I saw it but twodimes agrees... 65s (red) stands the best chance against black Aces besides red Aces.

My question: how the heck?

You can catch a straight, flush (+ 2 pair, trips, etc.), and making your hand is much less likely to make his hand (for example jts could make 2 pair and lose to a str8).
