What makes the rivalry great to those in the state of Alabama likely doesn't have the same effect in Wisconsin.
Which goes back to my point. The Southeast is traditionally a college sports region. Hell, for years everyone in this part of the country cheered for the Braves because that was the only MLB team. Pretty much still is. And only 2 states had NFL teams.

Good stuff.
