    Behind VTech BC and the Apple Cup? Forde can do better than that.

    There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

        He lists us with that longstanding Boise St-Hawaii rivalry. I don't know how we compete with that.

          When I lived in Mesa, I was surprised at the lack of caring by so many for the Arizona/Arizona State games. I rarely ran into anyone who was absolutely passionate about it while living there.

          That rivalry falls under the overated category for me.

            That rivalry must have cooled because when I was a kid it was a nasty fight. Maybe so many people moving to Phoenix not being from there cooled it.

              But no rivalry compares with Carbon-Emery!

                Not only are Spartans a lame mascot, but Emery is a shitty mineral. If you've ever wondered why Il Padrino is such a dork, just know that he has Ferron roots.

                  Ole Miss-Arkansas and Texas Tech-Texas A&M are ranked when Utah-BYU and Alabama-Auburn aren't? Heck, I'd take Florida-Florida St over Georgia-Florida.

                  A bad article.

                    This coming from a school that has a mascot named after a 3rd rate pimp from Yonkers?

                    Please.

                      Better than a 1st rate pimp from Orangeville

                        I'll second this comment. I was always surprised with how passive that rivalry seemed.

                          Wow Texas A&M vs. Texas Tech at #6 is pretty bad. What is worse is the reasoning as to why it is there at the moment. Not sure if I agree with BC Va Tech being in there either. No mention of the Iron Bowl is pretty bad.

                            I missed the Iron bowl not being on the list. That pretty much invalidates the whole list to me.

                              The way he is judging these rivalies, Utah/Wyoming would have made it a few years ago and BYU/Air Force would have made it when Crowton and DeBerry were coaching.

                              It's more of a coaches bad blood ranking than a rivalry ranking.
