Football rivalries

Posted by Michael.

Here’s the ESPN list, not just rivalries but other games of significance, etc.  This is where you the blog-people object strenuously to this list and argue for your own personal favorite. For example mine would be Whenever-Penn-State-beats-Florida-State-and-Paterno-makes-Bowden-run-from-town-with-his-tail-between-his-legs.

    some of my favorite descriptions:

    TCU at Texas, Sept. 8
    The Horned Frogs haven’t played the Longhorns since 1995. Both teams have national championship aspirations. Only one school has a mascot known for shooting blood out of its eyes.

    Oregon at Michigan, Sept. 8
    College football’s coolest helmets vs. the sport’s worst uniforms?

    Southern California at Nebraska, Sept. 15
    Believe it or not, one of the reasons Sam Keller chose to transfer to Nebraska over Colorado and Oklahoma is because the Trojans were coming to Lincoln. Keller didn’t get enough of the Trojans while he was playing at Arizona State? Keller threw for 347 yards and two touchdowns against USC in 2005, but the Trojans also intercepted five of his passes in their 38-28 victory. Keller went 0-3 against the Trojans while playing with the Sun Devils.

    I’m sure Nick will like that last one. not?
