Hmm. Odd that a regional rivalry that no one outside the SEC cares about would be ranked so high consistently by national sites.
Reading through those lists, it's obvious that Bama/Auburn, Michigan/OSU, and Army/Navy are widely considered the top 3. A person could make a reasonable case for any of three depending on the criteria chosen. Iron Bowl is probably getting the nod in most right now because every year it's had huge NCG implications, but it's a top 3 rivalry regardless

So the conclusion I made is that LSU and Alabama is the biggest rivalry in College Football today. Auburn is relevant and competes with Bama every 3 or 4 years. Same can be said about Michigan. LSU competes with Bama every year and it goes down to the wire when they meet. Thanks Bama fans for finally admitting that we are your true rival

You need to find the Big 10 jack off board if you want people to buy the shite you are trying to sell here.

Why, are you incapable of doing it yourself?
Do your own research to defend your points. I'm not going to assist your incompetence nor your laziness.

If Bama - Auburn was so freaking big, then Bama fans would not give a damn about preserving the UT rivalry so much.
Either you have one huge rivalry or two average ones. Bama has two average ones in UT and Auburn.

Meh I didn't know shite about OSU/MU until about 2008 when we finally had fans from opposing teams in my platoon. Had a Michigan fan the whole time. Actually a good buddy of mine. But I didn't know anything about their rivalris other than MSU.
Now on the other hand everyone in the platoon knew what team I hated.

I was at the 2013 Iron Bowl and the 2014 edition of The Game. The Iron Bowl tailgating stared easily before the sun was up. It was 9:00 before I saw anyone on Ohio State's campus and the game started at noon. Take that how you will.
2013 Iron Bowl winner played for the national title. 2014 Michigan was 5-6 and OSU was 5th or 6th at the time
If you had told me you went to the 2006 game and then the 2013 iron bowl I'd be much more understanding

Well, now we know you're lying. Whether you loved or hated tB1G(or even as a casual fan), you certainly would have heard about The Game in 2006.

The 2006 version of "The Game" was another one of my favorite all time games. I forget y'all's running back that year, but that spin move run up the middle for a 50 yard touchdown was freaking awesome.

And to you Nebraska fan, I absolutely knew that right off the bat. But Michigan and Ohio State both suffered embarrassing blowouts at the hands of the Crimson Tide. The same can't be said for either team from the north.

How many fricking times must Harbaugh shoot down these rumors? He is in for the long haul.
Your trashy arse was on the coaching board the entire month of december laughing at anyone who used Harbaugh and Michigan in the same sentence.
Once your candy arse was humiliated with that bull shite, you move the goal post and say "well, he won't be there long".
Really? Cuz I'm not sure I've posted on the coaching changes board more than 3 times regarding the UM job. But, please, keep making up stuff to make yourself look like a message board bad arse.
What the frick do you think Harbaugh's gonna say, "Yeah, I really want to get back to the NFL. I'm just here til a pro job I want opens up." That would do wonders for recruiting.
Idiot...
ETA: I just checked my history for the entire month of December. Yup, only three references to Harbaugh/UM. Two of those were concerning the Dolphins' owner's interest in hiring Harbaugh. The other was about Urban negatively recruiting JH.
So, apparently you are even more stupid than you are arrogant - quite an achievement for a "Michigan Man".

All the "big" rivalries are the same. People think there is something a little more special about their neck of the woods, but there really isn't.
actually the michigan-ohio(state) rivalry goes back like 300 years. thats why its such a bitter rivalry, its about more than football.
Stuff that happened 300 years ago isn't relevant. It's a rivalry between two neighbors. OU/texas, Florida/Georgia, it's all the same.

Michigan/Ohio State. 
How well did Beanie do in the Champ. game against LSU?

Y'all have lost 4 in a row to Bama. Y'all probably won't beat them ever again.

Tennessee has a better chance of beating Alabama this season than LSU does.
