Best College Rivalry

<p>My favorite has got to be Michigan-Ohio State</p>

<p>Michigan vs OSU is pretty special. But there are many other good rivalries. Auburn vs Alabama, Oklahoma vs Texas, USC vs Notre Dame, Michigan vs Notre Dame among many others.</p>

<p>The Duke/UNC rivalry is fairly unique in that both institutions are in the same state. In fact, they’re less than 20 minutes apart. </p>

<p>People in the state either passionately love or venomously hate each school – there is absolutely no in-between, and everyone has an opinion. </p>

<p>Army/Navy is pretty big too.</p>

<p>UAA vs UAF is obviously big up here, but I don’t think anything can beat BC vs BU.</p>

<p>Stanford vs Berkeley</p>

<p>UCLA vs USC</p>

<p>Harvard vs Yale</p>

<p>For football, Forbes ranked the price of tickets as follows:</p>

<ol>
<li>USC-Notre Dame</li>
<li>UGA (all home games!)</li>
<li>UCLA-USC</li>
<li>Alabama-Auburn</li>
<li>Florida-LSU</li>
<li>Oklahoma-Nebraska</li>
<li>USC-Ohio State</li>
<li>Texas-Oklahoma</li>
<li>Florida-Georgia</li>
<li>Ohio State-Michigan</li>
</ol>

<p>MIT-CalTech for the geeks among us…</p>

<p>Having lived all around the country I have to say Auburn Alabama is the best. Michigan also compete with Mich State so for “that state up North” the OSU game is not as big a deal. OU UT is big but OU also play OSU and UT plays A&M and Tech. When I lived in AL my roommate and I were asked if we were for Auburn or AL regularly.</p>

<p>South Carolina-Clemson is pretty interesting… Clemson was founded because the founder thought that South Carolina was only for “elites” and didn’t want to educated the farmers.</p>

<p>I’m partial to Michigan Ohio State. NC Duke is up there too. Also Harvard Yale.</p>

<p>Cal-Stanford is huge in CA and goes way back</p>

<p>this is ridiculous.</p>

<p>USC vs. UCLA</p>

<p>BU versus BC</p>

<p>Top 3 Wine & Cheese Rivalries</p>

<ol>
<li>Amherst-Williams</li>
<li>Stanford-California</li>
<li>Harvard-Yale</li>
</ol>

<p>Amherst vs. Williams is so cute. Haha.</p>

<p>But seriously people, the real best rivalry is UCLA vs. USC. No question.</p>

<p>UNC Duke no question</p>

<p>I think Bowdoin vs Bates vs Colby is also very intense as all three are NESCAC</p>

<p>It is there in Wikipedia also :smiley:

<p>It’s a shame people dont realize how intense the BU/BC rivalry is. Simply because college football is much, much more popular than college hockey. Many people of note have stated that the rivalry is up there with Duke/UNC, Mich/tOSU, etc.</p>

<p>They’re making a movie about the rivalry for a reason: [Rival</a> Films :: Sports Movies | Documentaries | Stock Footage](<a href=“http://www.rivalfilms.net/]Rival”>http://www.rivalfilms.net/)</p>

<p>unc / duke</p>

<p>TOSU vs. Michigan with authority!!! :)</p>

<p>Most buckeye fans would refrain (more like forbidden due to enormous distaste) themselves from the use of the word - “Michigan” in everyday life. Now that’s an intense rivalry!!</p>
