I guess Tennessee isn't what we call decent anymore following Alabama's 14 year winning streak.
I believe Alabama's winning percentage over Tennessee is still smaller than every series that was listed in the OP.

Has Sarkisian started to beg to play us again yet? If not how much longer do we think he goes until he does? Got kinda embarrassing how often Herman and CDC did

LSU just can’t handle Bama. It’s some kind of bizarre mental/psychological effect, as they are usually on par athletically and talent wise. LSU can be 10x better on paper and they would still either lose or barely win. And I’m an LSU fan. There needs to be a psychology case study on the rivalry. Georgia vs Bama is the same way but they play less frequently.

Oklahoma v Okie State - the Sooners lead 90-18-7. I’m not comparing the programs directly from a historical standpoint, but that’s pathetic. Gundy is 2-14 against OU and is 1-4 when the Pokes are the higher ranked team.

This is just sad. Bedlam is a usually a great game but you always go into it knowing OU will win in the end

The big 8 was a fricking joke. It was truly just OU and nebraska beating up on the little plains schools by 70 year in and out

Kinda the same same as the SWC with Texas and Arkansas. Pac 12 with USC and Washington.

Both A&M and arkansas won over 15 conference titles in the SWC and both were competitive in the relative modern era of football. Mizzou was the only other big 8 team to win more than 10 and basically all of their wins were in pre war America

The SWC at least had A&M and arkansas to challenge UT

So then...UT-A&M is a lopsided rivalry? You earlier post indicates the Aggies were a smaller school and couldn’t field the team that Texas could. But here you’re indicating they were a challenger, which I insinuated.

So I was wrong about Aggy being an also-ran. That in turn makes their series with Texas decidedly lopsided without much of an excuse.

Nebraska is 78-15-2 vs. Kansas State, 91-23-3 vs. Kansas, 37-5-1 vs. Oklahoma State.

They beat Kansas 36 straight times, KSU 29 straight times, Oklahoma State 24 straight times, and Missouri 24 straight times.

Yeah we were real bad at football for about 35 years. I still can’t tell if you’re disagreeing with me or not. But comparing the Big 8 and SWC is real dumb

Younglings may not appreciate the heat of WVU’s past rivalries. Terps, Cuse, Pitt, Hokies, UL. shite, Miami. PSU was the outlier record-wise.

Yep.

Still have a chunk of goalpost from the Major Harris win.

The only reason Georgia-Georgia Tech’s all-time record is even remotely respectable is because of the 50’s. Since Georgia snapped a long losing streak in the 50’s, they lead 42-17. Tech hasn’t won a home game against Georgia since the 90’s.

This one is wild. I mean, even 80-28 wouldn't completely shock me. But damn.


I also laugh at Minnesota and Michigan State claiming all those titles.
