Biggest Rivalry?

So, now that Ohio State and Michigan are going into their game this weekend undefeated they are suddenly the biggest rilvalry in the land. At least, that’s what fans of those two teams would like you to believe. These fans use the reasoning that if this game has such massive national title implications then it must be the biggest rivalry. Um… Sorry. That’s not the case. In fact, I doubt if it’s in the top 3.

When is the last time anybody said anything about the ‘rivalry’ when one or both of the teams wasn’t undefeated? If both teams limped into the game with an average record would it still be the biggest game of the year to their own fans? I doubt it. The idea that the Michigan - Ohio State game is the biggest rivalry is general poppycock.

Alabama - Auburn. Now THAT’S a rivalry.

    The tension is building for tomarrow’s college football show down between No.1 Ohio State and No.2 Michigan…and I mean tension. Q: Why did Ohio State switch from artifical turf to grass? A: So the cheerleaders would have somewhere to graze. Ouch! It is predicted by many polls that if Ohio State loses to Michigan they will fall in the rankings to No.3 or worse. Tomarrow, Ohio State not only needs to win; they must defend their chances at a the National Title.

    […] I love stumbling across blogs that have no idea what they are talking about. Take a second and hop on over to sportsmaniax.com to read a short, yet absurd post which states that the Michigan/Ohio state rivalry is “poppycock” and doesn’t even belong in the top three. […]
