to the South's Oldest Rivalry. Right now, Virginia and North Carolina call their rivalry the South's Oldest Rivarly. UGA and Auburn have now played 122 games. This ties the Virginia - North Carolina rivalry. Let's take their name and tell them to go frick themselves.

I don’t think ‘oldest’ means longest running. If they started their rivalry earlier, then it is still older.

How did they pull even?

Did UNC vs UVA stop for a year or more?

This would be akin to celebrating ISIS vs the Taliban suicide bombers with a self serving congratulatory name. Unnecessary, unwanted, and banal.

You could take it and they wouldn't even notice.


They don't even care.

Virginia isn't even in the south.

You can change the name to kick off Auburn's move to the East. "Still the Deep South's Oldest Rivalry". Get some eyeballs looking Aubie's way.

Technically oldest has nothing to do with number of games

Only "continual" rivalries are important ... as in uninterrupted.

I do love the history of the UGA-Auburb rivalry though. It's one of my favorites.
