Will Bedlam end? TU/Tech? TU/TCU?

We aren’t rivals with tech. And expecially not with TCU.

"Rivalry" in the same sense Ole Miss and Alabama are "rivals"

I'd say Bedlam is the only "true" rivalry. It would make sense for Oklahoma State to keep it going if they can... I fear they may have a major dearth of high profile games soon... but they have been enraged about this move. I could OSU cutting off their own nose to spite their face.

Yeah no way TCU considers Texas a rival. Texas doesn't beat them enough

Texas leads the series with TCU 63–26–1 through the 2019 season.

Texas leads the all-time series with Tech 52–17 through the 2019 season. And this one has a dumb trophy.

Seems like a rivalry.

This is really the only reason I’ve been pushing a P6 of 10 teams with revenue sharing. The hate, shite talking and camaraderie is what makes college football better than the NFL and we are going to lose all that for sanitized plastic bullshite.

Original Expansion (Arkie, USC): Auburn Lost Tennessee
Next Expansion (TAMU, Mizzou); Auburn Lost Florida
This Expansion (UT, Oklahoma): possible we lose Georgia, or if I get my way, we pick them up.

Makes sense. TCU is 7-2 against y’all since joining the Big 12. Not much of a rivalry at all.

We stopped playing each other annually after the 02 season.

I would be against losing either the Tennessee or LSU game unless we could get Auburn back on the schedule. We have lost Auburn and Miami due to expansion. Auburn was our oldest rival even pre-dating the rivalry with Georgia, and Florida/Miami was a great rivalry pre-dating our rivalry with FSU. As a matter of fact the trophy for that game was the Seminole war canoe.

Miami won the last game of the series in 1987 (Emmitt Smith's 1st game as a Gator) and has it on display in their sports hall of fame. I don't think we ask for it back the next time we won.
