The best college football rivalry going

Postby Big10Ponyfan » Fri Nov 17, 2006 3:17 pm

I don't believe in polls. Just fire off what you think. Here are my favorites in order.

1. SMU-TCU

2. Army-Navy

3. Texas-Oklahoma

4. Minnesota-Iowa

5. Michigan-Ohio State

I really think Texas/OU is the most unique rivalry in college football and the Best Ticket because of the neutral site. Two Top 5 programs.

Since I know your list, minus the typos, was supposed to read:

1. SMU-TCU
2. Army-Navy
3. Oklahoma-Texas
4. Auburn-Alabama
5. USC-Neutered Dame
6. Michigan-Ohio State
7. Nebraska-Oklahoma
8. Tennesse-Florida
9. Florida State-Miami
10. Oregon-Oregon State

.... put me down for Auburn-Alabama. Well, SMU-Anybody is always the most important game of any given football weekend, but Auburn-Alabama is one game I'm dying to see.

I have made it a life goal to see a list of college rivalry games, most of them on the above discussed lists. There are two though that I would highly recommend attending:

Florida/Georgia
Michigan/Michigan State

Stanford/Cal is like nothing I've ever seen. Amazing atmosphere.

Next on my wish list is Oregon/Oregon State. Heard that gets UGLY.

I've got to go with VMI-Citadel. Look closely at this video from last week. A VMI CHEERLEADER (female) puts a male Citadel cadet in a headlock and pummels him, Nolan Ryan/Robin Ventura style. That's commitment.

USC/Notre Dame
In my opinion, this rivalry is the best (of course, nothing compares to SMU/TCU)!

Clemson - South Carolina is a good one. Most of the others (obvious exception aub.-ala) do not involve in state rivals.

There is something a bout a state having its allegiance split evenly like Clemson versus SC.
