Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

College football has some of the most rabid fans, and lunatic emotions, in sports.

 

In Football Feuds, longtime sportswriters Ken Rappoport and Barry Wilner detail the greatest rivalries of all time and rank them in a Top 25. Their evaluation is based on a number of criteria: historical impact, traditions, pageantry, familiarity, and intensity. The intensity generated by these rivalries remains at the highest level possible in such longtime competitions as Army and Navy, Michigan and Ohio State, Texas and Texas A&M, California and Stanford, and Florida State and Miami. Here also are Texas and Oklahoma, Alabama and Auburn, Notre Dame and USC, Pitt and West Virginia—and many, many more.
