Crazy game. This is what I love about college football and why it will always be better than the pros in my book.

Used to think that, but sorry. My pro team is never in danger of not playing its biggest rivals just because someone else decided it would make them more money.

Rivalries in the NFL feel so manufactured.

With college, the rivalries don't stop with football and I think that's what gives them more weight and makes them more special.

Well, I'm a Commanders fan, and I hate the Cowboys, Giants, and Eagles as much as I hate Carolina, Duke, Wake, Clemson, FSU, and Maryland.

But in 5 years the Commanders will still be playing Dallas, New York, and Philly, but State won't be playing anyone on that list anymore.
