Talking with u/SpreaditOnnn33 in another thread earlier today, the idea of Notre Dame creating an entire schedule out of only teams that considered them a rival came up, and it turns out it’s extremely possible:
Notre Dame All-Rivals Schedule
- Week 1: Navy Navy
- Week 2: Boston College Boston College
- Week 3: Northwestern Northwestern
- Week 4: Michigan Michigan
- Week 5: BYE
- Week 6: Stanford Stanford
- Week 7: Army Army
- Week 8: Michigan State Michigan State
- Week 9: BYE
- Week 10: Pittsburgh Pitt
- Week 11: Penn State Penn State
- Week 12: Purdue Purdue
- Week 13: Air Force Air Force
- Week 14: USC USC
The only team on there I added that wasn’t from an existing rivalry of Notre Dame’s is Air Force, because if you’re already gonna play Navy and Army…
Regardless, the 12-team All-Rivals schedule is possible, at least for one team. Is it possible for another?
Well, I happen to be a fan of one Oklahoma Sooners, who also happen to have quite a few teams that claim to hate them, so I figured, why not try?
Oklahoma Sooners All-Rivals Schedule
(I stuck some of the more controversial ones up front, so bear with me)
- Week 1: Tulsa Tulsa
- Week 2: Kansas State Kansas State
- Week 3: Iowa State Iowa State
- Week 4: BYE
- Week 5: Arkansas Arkansas
- Week 6: SMU SMU
- Week 7: Texas Texsa
- Week 8: North Texas North Texsa
- Week 9: Nebraska Nebraska
- Week 10: BYE
- Week 11: Texas A&M Texsa A&M
- Week 12: Missouri Mizzou
- Week 13: Texas Tech Texas Tech
- Week 14: Oklahoma State oSu
There’s no question that we’ve got some stretches in there, but I do think that every team on that list feels some type of way about Oklahoma (I know I do about them).
But what about your team? Do you have enough teams that have beef with you that you could create an entire schedule out of “rivals”?
Edit: Mods, can we please just change Pitt’s flair designator to Pitt? No one on earth refers to them as Pittsburgh.
