With all the recent conference shuffling we’re entering a whole new era of college football. Traditional rivalries are being put on ice (RIP Bedlam), but realignment also creates opportunities for new matchups to grow into heated showdowns.
Some of the most iconic rivalries weren’t always legendary. They became that way over decades of high stakes, close games, and bitter fan bases.
So here’s the question:
Which new matchups have the best potential to turn into real, passionate rivalries given enough time?
Colorado and Texas Tech have lost their main rivals, and they’re not too far away for fans to travel.
Will Mizzu and Arkansas ever care enough about the other to make this a rivalry?
What new blood feuds do you think could actually stick for your program?
