That's a doozy, but he didn't imply that Vandy-Miss. St. has as much pressure as THE GAME in that post. They really should make idiot-proof keyboards.

True, but nothing beats bringing all the ESPN coverage of LSU games then quoting no good football has been played between Michigan or Ohio State in the past 4 or 5 years. There was a countdown clock on the ticker for ESPN, ESPN 2, and ABC (when they were showing college football) for the entire week leading up the the game last year.

I agree that the Iron Bowl is the closest thing in the SEC.

OSU and Michigan do not have the exclusive understanding of rivalry in College football... OSU/Michigan is a great game, but there has not been any real good football played in that game for 4 or 5 years. OSU rolls over Michigan, no big deal...

Sure, to be the "greatest rivalry" you need several.
The Game is called The Game for a reason. Look at it like this.. you know how you feel about an SEC Championship - like it's all that matters and a NC is just icing? That's The Game.

Based on the results of the year, neither team should have been ranked higher than #5.
