this may have been a rivalries in the 50s but it wasnt in modern college football. If either side truly cared about this game, it would still be played

And I still hold that rivalries aren't that important. If you were to ask me if I'd rather be in the SEC or stuck in the big 12 playing the schools we've played forever, I'd choose the SEC every time

I'll give you that the old Nebraska/OU Big 8 games were great.

Much as most board fans don't want it to happen, the A&M/Texas game will probably resume in 7 years or so.

I still think "realignment as an enemy of great rivalries" is overrated. The handful you listed would be easy to get back on -- and as far as ND is concerned, I think they are about to dump Stanford the next time Stanford has a lull.
