sure. Like ive said so many times in this thread. I think rivalris are fun and i dont think they are stupid. But in this context, id rather win the division or the WS than win the season series against them




OK, here is the flaw. Absolutely no one is saying they would rather beat their rival than win the division or conference or NC. I guranatee you absolutely no one is saying this. If you are saying that is the mindset of those who love a rivalry then you are very very mistaken.

I'm not. Like I've said many times, my argument is not against rivalries, just the idea that they are the single most important aspect of sport or college football. I'm not saying everyone has that idea, just that it is definitely one that is on this board and is also in this thread

I will also throw in there that rivalry week being at the end of the year does indeed make those rivalry games that much more impotant as you have a final shot to stop your hated rival from making it to Atlanta if the circumstances are there.
