It starts out with Michigan-Ohio State.
Then goes to Duke-UNC.
The third rivalry they show is Memphis-Louisville.

Then it goes to (I think) Georgetown-Syracuse.
It ends with (I think) USC-UCLA.

Funny considering Memphis-Louisville haven't played in a few years.

it's been awhile since i've seen it and i could be wrong but i thought it was kentucky/louisville?

Haven't seen it, but uk and UM both wear blue, so that could be the confusion. And yes, UL and Memphis should play each other every single year. In both sports as far as I'm concerned.

It was Memphis and UL, I laughed when I saw it. Same with Georgetown and Syracuse.

I figured, UL should be matched up with UK, and if you are going to go in conference then UC. And everyone knows that Syracuse should be matched up with UConn.

Yes, it was Memphis/UL. In conference would have been nice if it was UL/UC. But if it had to be ooc, I would have thought it would have been UK/UL.
Regarding Syracuse/Georgetown, most Syracuse fans still regard Georgetown as their biggest rivalry. The fact that some of the congress folks in DC were struggling and scheming to get Georgetown/Syracuse game tickets, because they sold out very quickly tells me that Georgetown fans still feel the same way. Syracuse Uconn has certainly developed over the years, but if your old school like myself, you still get most excited for the Georgetown game.
You will also not that the BE office scheduled Georgetown and Syracuse to play twice this season, as opposed to Uconn and Syracuse. It could very well be Uconn and Syracuse playing twice next season, I dont know. But if I had my way, I would like to see Georgetown and Uconn and Nova as mirror opponents.

Yeah, if you ask Syracuse fans who is their biggest rival, 95% will still say Georgetown.

OK... I guess not everyone knows that Syracuse and Georgetown is the biggest rivalry :)

Did anyone else think it looked a little.....queer.....that he was essentially licking sauce out of another guys beard??

only if you are a homophobe

Not sure if it is 95%...Georgetown has come back en vogue as the huge rival.

Older fans...>GT
Fans under 30 might lean to UConn

Bottomline: Both great rivals. My take is GT fans loath Cuse more than the other way. GT thinks they are superior despite the facts otherwise. For many years Cuse kept the rivalry relevant...and we usually filled their arena for them. GT Bandwagoners has made it tougher for Cuse fans to buy their normal 8,000 tickets to their place anymore.

SU/UConn is a rivalry that is intense but I think there is more respect by the opposing fans towards their rival.

Yeah, Syracuse and Georgetown fans can't stand each other.
