The Chelsea Dagger All-American

I know a lot of Wisconsin grads. They hate Michigan and Ohio State just like all B1G fans do. But their rivals are clearly Minnesota and Iowa.

What is the biggest football program that doesn’t have a real rival?

CrimWalCoug All-American in practice

5/26/22 10:52pm

Notre Dame

Pete

5/26/22 10:52pm

USC

Kavorka

5/26/22 10:57pm

USC is Notre Dame’s biggest rival, and Notre Dame is USC’s biggest rival

JOPE

and Michigan. ND may not have a UCLA or tOSU, but they definitely have rivals.

Diablo and Doc

5/27/22 5:46am

Minnesota is their main rival isn’t it?

DrBYU

5/26/22 10:53pm

You ask Wisconsin fans, and they’ll mention multiple teams including Minnesota, Michigan, and Indiana.

CrimWalCoug

5/26/22 10:54pm

Their yearly game with Minnesota has been going on longer than any other matchup in college football

Magathis

5/26/22 10:58pm

Indiana? There’s no way they say Indiana

CommodoreCoug

5/26/22 10:59pm

Iowa is high on that list too

moknowssports

5/27/22 10:28am

Iowa State.

BlooCoog

5/27/22 12:40pm

Everyone in the B1G hates Michigan. The Bucky fans I know consider Minnesota and

I went to a Wisconsin - Minnesota game at Camp Randall stadium once.

BlueMark

5/27/22 2:32pm

LSU?

Medute

5/26/22 10:54pm

Ole Miss hates them. Kind of like the relationship between BYU vs. USU.

Diablo and Doc

5/27/22 5:47am

Bama is their biggest rival.

ordinary tri guy

5/27/22 6:17am

But Bama would claim Auburn as rival #1

Medute

5/27/22 6:27am

For a true rival each team has to list the other team as their #1 rival.

CrimWalCoug

5/27/22 6:59am

This is a bad metric of 'rival'.

Hotlanta

5/27/22 7:06am

I guess the question might be #1 rival

Medute

5/27/22 7:49am

Except I think Georgia hates Georgia Tech more

Magathis

5/27/22 8:27am

No way, not even close. Tech is the #3 rival for UGA

Hotlanta

5/27/22 9:16am

Auburn is probably number one and not just in sports In Attracting students,

Nat Gas Man

5/27/22 11:52am

Once upon a time maybe... but now Tech isn't worth their hate

krindorr

5/27/22 12:52pm

No they don't. BSU would say BYU is their biggest. But it's not ours.

ordinary tri guy

5/27/22 8:54am

Fresno is Boise's biggest rival, BYU is Utah's

Hotlanta

5/27/22 9:16am

I don't know a single BSU fan that says Fresno is their Rival.

ordinary tri guy

5/27/22 9:43am

Interestingly, Wikipedia lists 3 rivals for Boise St...none of which is BYU

krindorr

5/27/22 5:23pm

When was the last time that was updated?

Magathis

5/27/22 5:26pm

March 4, 2022

krindorr

5/27/22 5:44pm

Weird

Magathis

5/27/22 5:54pm

Again, never spoken to a BSU fan that said (now) any of those 3 teams are rivals

ordinary tri guy

STL

5/26/22 10:54pm

Miami? It’s FSU.

LakeshowCougs

5/27/22 12:15am

FSU hates Florida more

-C9-

5/27/22 8:23am

I’m well aware. I went to Florida. But to say Miami doesn’t have a rival is not

LakeshowCougs

5/27/22 9:55am

Penn State prior to the Big 10

Captain Stubing

5/26/22 10:54pm

Pitt

Magathis

5/26/22 10:57pm

Pitt's biggest rival is WVU.

HiLife

5/27/22 9:54am

Another team they haven’t played in a decade

Magathis

5/27/22 10:07am

Penn State is the correct answer

Hotlanta

5/27/22 6:56am

Penn St before B1G might have considered Pitt their rival. It still remains

The Chelsea Dagger

5/27/22 6:01pm

Nebraska, away from Oklahoma now.

Samsonite

5/26/22 10:57pm

The B1G is trying to force a rivalry with Iowa though

Magathis

5/26/22 10:59pm

Good call

Captain Stubing

5/26/22 11:02pm

And no Colorado either

LakeshowCougs

5/27/22 12:16am

What qualifies as a real rival? Minnesota is definitely Wisconsin’s rival, even

Kavorka

5/26/22 10:57pm

LSU and Arkansas is a pretty big rivalry.

dfudge

5/27/22 12:18am

Nebraska for sure. And I guess Texas A&M right now

YIsForBrigham

5/26/22 11:01pm

Hawaii.

Have you seen the size of some of those lineman? Two words. Thicc Boi.

notaboy

5/27/22 5:08am

B1G - Penn St, Sec - LSU, ACC - Syracuse, Big 12 - Cincinnati, PAC - Colorado.

The biggest ones I can think of you could make an argument for are:

cougarfan84

5/26/22 11:16pm

If you ask a Tennessee fan they would probably say one of the following:

LakeshowCougs

5/27/22 12:19am

It’s sad to see Nebraska on that list, growing up Oklahoma vs Nebraska was

RC Vikings

5/27/22 2:39am

Right, usually w/ an Orange Bowl berth on the line. Bigger OU/OSU or OU/TX

Captain Stubing

5/27/22 6:41am

All of you people saying ND are crazy. ND has more rivals than any other program

Hotlanta

5/27/22 6:55am

Correct.

HiLife

5/27/22 9:53am

True rivals, or just teams that can't stand ND?

BlooCoog

5/27/22 12:39pm

USC, Michigan, Navy, Stanford, even Boston College to an extent

Hotlanta

5/27/22 12:43pm

Wisconsin fans see Michigan and Ohio State as their biggest rivals, I think

HoustonBYUCoug

5/27/22 12:28pm

Iowa and Minnesota are, by far, Wisconsin's biggest rivals, no question

Hotlanta

5/27/22 12:33pm

This is correct

royalwalrus

5/27/22 1:35pm

No. Definitely Minnesota and Iowa. Splitting my time between St Paul and Chicago

The Chelsea Dagger

5/27/22 5:54pm

Colorado. They used to have a great rivalry with Nebraska but that died. They

BlooCoog

5/27/22 12:39pm

Colorado State would like to think that they are CU's rival, but they aren't.

HiLife

5/27/22 1:04pm

EVERY Colorado and Nebraska fan I know still consider each other biggest rivals

moknowssports

5/27/22 2:57pm

They haven't played for years though; hard to call that a rivalry.

BlooCoog

5/27/22 3:43pm

this is dumb. We still have a rivalry with Utah, even if we won't play till 2025

Hotlanta

5/27/22 3:51pm

They have played twice in the last 5 years and play again this year…

moknowssports

5/27/22 6:15pm

Strongly disagree. It isn't a rivalry unless you play Every Year

Definitely Minnesota. Then Iowa. It’s the Upper Midwest hate triangle.
