I like a good rivalry but some of them have turned into hatred. Florida/Georgia is a good example. Others which seem to have gotten out of hand are Alabama/Auburn, South Carolina/Clemson, Oklahoma/Okie State, and I am sure there are a lot more.
You just do not understand.
I’m not sure the OU/OSU game really qualifies as a great rivalry. While it is true that the series has evened somewhat in the last few years. Still, OU leads the series something like 75-15 over the last hundred years. A game should have more balance to qualify as a great rivalry.
BTW, that’s from an OU perspective. Most OSU fans would consider the game to be their greatest rivalry. OU would probably rank Texas, Nebraska, and Notre Dame above OSU.
