I didn't even know Ole Miss - Arkansas was a rivalry, much less a top ranked rivalry.

Pretty poor list, Michigan - tOSU should be higher too.

Definite garbage list to leave off Mich-OSU; Bama' and Auburn; The UW-WSU comments though were pretty entertaining, however to not even mention the Civil War remarks of the writers ignorance or definitive slant;...He tries to qualify it by relevance to the present which makes ignoring the civil war even a greater ommission...if that is the case UCLA-USC should not be on the list due to the fact the Bruins have not been relevent for a while.

I like how he has OSU and USC as Honorable Mention... I am so sure Trojan players go to USC so they can play the hated Queefers! What a joke.

Maybe GD meant Mich-Oregon State, or Mich-Oklahoma State...both timeless classics. Afterall, he didn't say tOSU.

Still should be higher IMO.

Does anyone even watch Washington-Wazzu? Even when they are decent? :roll:
