How about the big southeast Oklahoma high school rivalry between the Idabel Warriors and the Broken Bow Savages? If football isn’t your thing...rent a cano from Ambush Adventures and take a trip down the Little River

The lawyers think they can get money from the settlement with Washington. (The Seminole tribe is happy with Florida State and to many lawyers do protect their Alma Mater, Stanford, from the petty law suits they dish out).

I followed your lead about the Stanford Indians but Stanford still protects their own.
