How could they leave off Texas A&M vs University of Texas?The Texas/Texas A&M rivalry has given rise to several stereotypes on both sides: Aggies are generally portrayed as ignorant and dumb farmers, while Longhorns are portrayed as highbrow and arrogant city-slickers. The annual football game with Texas A&M takes place the day after Thanksgiving each year. In an attempt to generate more attention for the rivalry in sports other than football, in 2004 the two schools started the Lone Star Showdown, a trial two-year program. Essentially, each time the two schools meet in a sport, the winner of the match up gets a point. At the end of the year, the school with the most points wins the series and receives a trophy.Aspects of the rivalry include: * Each school mentions the other in their fight song (Texas with "and it's goodbye to A&M" in Texas Fight, and the Aggies singing about Texas for essentially the entire second verse of the Aggie War Hymn) * The football series between the two universities is the third longest running rivalry in all of college football. Since 1900, the last regular season football game is usually reserved for their match up.[ * Each school has elaborate pre-game preparations for the annual football clash, including the Aggie Bonfire and the Hex Rally * Texas has a unique lighting scheme for the UT Tower after wins over Texas A&M. * In the past, mischief has preceded the annual game, such as "kidnapping" each others mascots.That should be enough to put it on the list.

Despite the fact that it's really only local, the Cincinnati vs. Miami (Oxford), is a great rivalry and one of the oldest in the country.

Another lesson learned by dumb UCLA fans...Don't compare your football history to USC...stick to basketball and leave the football history to the school with a football history.

Oregon vs Oregon St. End of the season, every year. So important of a game, that when one (or both) of the teams has a chance to finish in the top five, the entire state will look at that season as a failure if they don't win the Civil War. It may not look like it a first glance since Oregon doesn't have an NFL team, but this is a huge football state. To this day, Ducks and Beavers will instantly look down on last years winner. Even if a team looses every other game in the season, if that team can win the Civil War, its a successfully year. On a side note, Portland should really get an NFL team, College football is not enough, we need Pro football too! (We are tired of cheering for the Seahawks or the 49ers)
