Except in that time, even though OSU has been dominating it, Michigan has still come in ranked, still had chances at B10 titles, national titles ect. and some of the games have been some of the best CFB games ever. So it's just not comparable to a boring Navy/Army game every year with no meaning.
Im calling B.S. The skunk weasels never had a chance at a Natty.

Iowa vs Iowa State is an unique rivalry

No other state can say BOTH of these
- Only 2 FBS team in the state
- Both teams in different P5 conferences

South Carolina was until Coastal Carolina moved to FBS. I believe Pennsylvania would be if Temple wasn't there. Arkansas has P5 and G5.

What about S Carolina-Clemson?

The Army/Navy is the best because of everything besides the game. It is national in nature much more than any conference game. Both teams could be winless and the pageantry would not be diminished.

There is some homer bias in my pick, but Michigan/ohio state extends way past football and started before football Toledo War - Wikipedia ... I think 1-5 could be interchangeable ...

Leave it to a Michigan fan to bring up shit that happened before most of our grandparents were born.

USC-Notre Dame has been going down in the last few years. Notre Dame and Michigan is actually bigger, if they play each other.

Army/Navy should be on top.

Nah. It may have been in the 1940's, but its importance (and watch-ability) has faded over the years.

The top two rivalries are Alabama/Auburn & Oklahoma/Texas.

I stand by my guns. The Alabama/Auburn game was suspended for several years because of the mutual dislike of the two schools. It took an act of the legislature to get them back together.

Same thing happened at the beginning of Army/Navy.

Hell, I can remember when Misissippi/Mississsippi state was a huge rivalry telecast every year.
