What is the better rivalry?
Did anyone see these two clowns on Classic Sports last night saying that FSU/Miami was a better rivalry than OSU/UM?
Their reason was because the winner of the game either went on to win the NC or at least be somewhere in the thick of things, and the number of players from each school that are now in the league.

Who cares. People in Florida will say Miami/FSU/UF. People in the Alabama will say Bama/Auburn.
It goes on and on with Oklahoma/Texas/Nebraska, Washington/WSU, USC/UCLA.... blah blah blah. We know which game is bigger. Isn't that what matters? sports writers say that [censored] just to get a rise out of people and it works everytime.

It never fails.... every season someone starts one of these threads. I bet if we go back just here at BP we could find at least 3 "which is the best rivalry" threads. Enough is enough people!

I think the rivalry between the South Central Upper Ohio College of Medical Accountants and the Portsmouth University of Jamaican Studies, Zanesville Campus is the biggest in all of sports. Sure, the SCUOCMA White Coats haven't beaten the PUJSZ Reefers in a dozen years, but they've played some really close games. Look at the scores of the last ten years: 10-7, 19-7, 44-7, 44-39, 39-37, 100-4, 7-4, 4-3, 10-3, and 10-8. 7 of the 10 games were pretty close. And, of course, it made the local newspapers (page 4) when "Stethy," the Stethoscope, the mascot for SCUOCMA sucker-punched the Reefer mascot, Dave. The next year, the Reefers almost got their entire team disqualified for unsportsman-like conduct for stomping on the White Coat logo at the 50-yard line. These two teams absolutely hate each other, and have for at least 80 years.
The two teams started playing each other in 1924. The PUJSZ Reefers, who were still located in Portsmouth (until 1933), won 3-0. The White Coats bitched about the Reefers running up the score. The Reefers won the next 6 meetings by an average score of 17-2. The White Coats finally won in 1938, 19-6, with the White Coats' hero, Reggie "The Otter" Triffit scoring three touchdowns. The White Coats then won throughout the '40's, but the Reefers refuse to admit any of those losses, citing that their team was destroyed by the military draft. Throughout the '50's, they traded wins, with the visiting team winning every game. Tensions rose another notch in 1957 when the Reefers won with a last-second field goal 33-31, and the Reefers' fans sat back and relaxed. The White Coats' fans were disgusted, thinking the Reefers should tear down the goal posts, and act like assholes. The worst the rivalry got was in 1992, the last time the White Coats beat the Reefers. The Reefers were so [censored]ed about the 29-3 game that the players went into the White Coats' locker room and gave them all titty twisters. That's my vote for best rivalry in all of sports.

Their is one constant in every one of those lesser rivalries claims. Every one of them compare themselves to Ohio State-Michigan. FSU-Miami never tries to compare themselves to Auburn-Alabama, USC-UCLA, or any of the other fine rivalries in college football. They all try be better than Ohio State-Michigan. That, in and of itself, proves who number one really is. No other proof is needed.

Rivaled only by the number of players from each school that are now in the state penitentiary.
