Most overrated college football rivalry

[jwolt92]

I really feel like my contribution to this thread is going underappreciated

Y'all don't know quality content when you see it

Another great name...

Farmageddon. KState and Iowa State

Close series too! Even with the Purple Vampire dominating for the past quarter of a century, Iowa State still leads 50-48-4. It is Iowa State's most played remaining annual series and closest too.

Considering 12 straight wins didn’t even make the series total respectable, I’m pretty sure they still say it.

Winsipedia - Oregon Ducks vs. Washington Huskies football series history

Seems similar to OSU Michigan...

Ohio State vs Michigan.

Sure it's a big deal to those two teams, but for the rest of us in the college football world, this is an overrated rivalry. Even the "big" games turn out to be duds, or just boring Big Ten football type football.

Anyone remember the real big game between the two in like 2005? Where it was a night game #1 vs #2. I was asleep by halftime.

Let's try to keep this rivalry regional to those this means a lot. Please stop trying to tell us how great of a rivalry this is.

Someone seems to be upset never coming in 1st.

Minnesota-Crookston vs. Minnesota State Moorhead

I don't think the KU vs KSU, is a very big deal

That's probably cause KU's biggest rivalry was always Mizzou. KSU never really had anybody...

They were there to break records on.
They need to know where their place is and get back down to it.

Iowa State finally stuck a dagger in their heart to end an era! Hopefully, they stay down for a while. Bummer they didn't end up with Little Snyder as their new coach.

That would have been fun to watch.

Yeah, can’t really call tOSU/UM a great rivalry anymore whennone team has won 13 out of the last 14 times. Fuck that’s pathetic.....

 

[HOGGZ1LLA]

Interstate rivalries are just better IMHO

 

[UGADawg1988]

The same could be said for the Worlds Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party back in the 90's and 00's. Back then UGA rarely beat Florida. Between 1990 and 2010, the Gators won 18 and lost only 3. This decade we're in now is more even, with UGA winning 5 of the last 8 games since 2011.

I don't see an end to Tennessee's misery as far as Alabama goes. Tennessee is bringing in top 20 recruiting classes, while Alabama is bringing in top 5 classes, year after year. The Vols are waiting on Saban to retire.

Michigan will eventually get more competitive with Ohio State. Maybe this upcoming coaching change in Columbus will help Michigan out some? Who knows? Harbaugh has been a slight disappointment.

It seems like all of the great nationally meaningful rivalries have gone sideways lately. I wonder what is the current most meaningful EVEN national rivalry out there? I cannot think of a single one.

Alabama vs Auburn. Yeah, it's not exactly "even" because Alabama still has the edge...but if you look at the last 15 years or so it's pretty comparable wins & losses and whoever wins usually wins the National Championship...or at least plays for it!

Tennessee’s misery is like a fine wine.

It gets better with age...

The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party is truly a unique event. It’s like the funniest bowl game you’ve ever been to but right in the middle of the season. I can remember the bitter experience of the 80’s so the 90’s and 00’s when the Gators started whooping poodle butt were mighty sweet. This decade has been back and forth. Hopefully the trend of the last two years gets turned around soon.

Then there are the squaws from Tally we’re not too fond of. We like them about as much as the guido wiggers of scUM who are perpetually screaming “look at me!” between various crimes against civilization.

Best name of a rivalry game: The Moonshine Throwdown

Marshall-Western Kentucky

I used to love it when Tennessee and Kentucky played for the Old Beer Barrel, but sadly UK players fucked that up.

The one thing I will miss about Rivals is the unbridled UF/FSU hate. I often said ANY thread over there could turn into a Nole/Gator hate thread in 2 posts.
