You’re right, but, in my opinion, that’s not reason enough to continue the annual farce. Please recall that, following the Staubach-led team’s win in ‘63, there followed 40 years of losses. That doesn’t meet my definition of a rivalry, or a tradition . Truth to tell, I’m a USNA grad and it has irked me no end to see the pigheaded persistence to engage in the farce as well as the phony hype.
Secure the soapbox; carry on.
Have a very happy Thanksgiving, may fam to yours.
You are right also. It is mostly hype and a farcical.
Have a blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours, also.
