ABC was always Michigan vs somebody in the morning..
Pac-10 in the 80s had the Pac-10 game of the week...

USC or UCLA vs somebody...that was it. If you wanted to get on TV, you had to be playing them that week.

After that game ESPN would always show one night SEC game...so if you scheduled night games, you got on TV.

After 1971 (Game of the Century), I always made sure to watch this one. Almost always top 10, usually top 5, always with national implications, always loaded with future NFL talent.

Also, Penn State/Pitt when they were both good.

Tennessee vs Florida. Loved watching Spurrier and Fulmer go at it on those CBS Saturday afternoon games

As a kid, I always enjoyed LSU/Tulane games.

I'm sorry I like watching one of my team's top 2 rivalries. And at least one of the two teams is usually ranked, so you aren't watching shitty football.

FSU/Miami is what first got me to start loving CFB. ND/UM would be my #2.

Born in '84... FSU/Miami was my favorite easily. Loved the years they would play on labor day. OU/Texas is one I watch every year no matter what (and I hate both teams with a passion).

A lot of people don't realize just how big of a rivalry that used to be.
