You’re wrong. The Egg Bowl is ALWAYS more entertaining than the NFL night game on Thanksgiving.


We aren’t talking about the NFL.

Sure. Just not the entire nation. There are quite a few “hate filled” regional rivalries across the country that are just like the egg bowl.

5. Texas A&M vs Winning
This rivalry has been too one-sided to be considered a real rivalry.

WLOCP and it ain't even close. Just too bad the monied elite at both UF and UGA think it beneath them to any longer rub shoulders with the common folk. They want the game on campus because they can better control who actually gets into the stadium on game day.

When a player cosplays as a dog and faux pisses in the end zone during the game, this makes it a top rivalry.


Also the egg bowl is the only game in history to have unsportsmanlike conduct called on every player on both sides

Oldest, fiercest, and most lopsided rivalry to be sure.

I don’t know how Bama vs Auburn is number 1. Kinda overrated to be honest. I see more auburn dick riding Bama than I do hate


I don't know, the fact that Auburn has managed to keep their record against Bama respectable under Saban (through 5 different head coaches of their own) shows that the Iron Bowl still has juice.

Hell, Auburn could have beaten them last year.

I mean it’s usually a good game and I enjoy watching it but I don’t feel the hate between the 2 teams like I do others

Nope, neither is top of their game
SC vs Notre Dame maybe, but staying in the SEC, WLoCP

Egg Bowl does not get media love but Top 5

No one outside of MS gives a shite about the egg bowl.

Don't be upset that LSU didn't make the list because A&M's new rival is winning.

If Ole Miss and Miss State played with the hate and passion of the Egg Bowl vs other teams we would both get an extra win every year.

I’m an LSU grad, and I live in Mississippi, but the Egg Bowl is very entertaining. In terms of intensity of feeling, yeah, it’s probably in the top 5. For entertainment value, definitely in the top 5; in terms of significance to the overall college football landscape, not so much.
