RE: top rivals
1. Ole Miss
2. Cincinnati
3. Houston
4. Louisville
5. Tennessee (would rise if we played them in fb and or bb)
6. Kentucky (cal)
Ole Miss feels like they are a instate rival. Only two hours away, and we play them frequently in multiple sports. Ole Miss has a bunch of ties to Memphis as well. Come across any Tiger fan and just about all of them will say they hate the ye ye rebel black bears... yikes
Cincinnati was a dead rivalry that has personally arose from the ashes due to the AAC. Didn't care about them for years after we parted, now it feels like the old days. When there is a Cincy game I hear about it almost just as much as an Ole Miss game.
Houston might be a surprise considering they've been in our conference for so long and no one recognized them as a rival. Recently its has got chippy. In basketball and football we have had some truly amazing games. Ones that could have gone any way. Houston vs Memphis has become a very competitive series regardless if its basketball or football.

hell yeah
louisville used to be a good rivalry. most uc fans are jealous of the program me included. we'd give up our left ball, scandals and all, to be where they are.
even though memphis sucks right now, i always get a bit jittery about those games. lots of good and not so good memories. keep ya head up son
xavier obviously. i love when they make a deep run in the tournament and get their heart broken. still not bad shoes to be in
uconn basketball. legendary games. it'd be cool if calhoun wouldn't have playa hated (allegedly) us. i know it's silly, but i'm easily in awe, but his name could have helped legitimize us. it was pretty intimidating playing in the big east with the rosters mick cobbled together
usf football
not just because of the history, but some gutsy games
i'm willing to accept your rivalry

jimmy wasn't the nicest guy on the planet lol, i love our rivalry, its really taken off in AAC. Cincy is alway the team i am most pumped to play in AAC
make no mistake cuse has a special place in my heart, it made my day knowing that we were probably the reason that they missed the tourney. We will beat them again next year. They may be in a better conference but that doesn't stop us from kicking their ass..

Then like darth vader did to the emperor, you throw shere down the csnbbs reactor core shaft. Where Shere then proceeds to explode in an awesome display of trolling brilliance.

The Tulane-LSU rivalry may as well be considered as a historic and peaceful one. Both schools are hosting a joint recruiting event this spring, amd Tulane actually dropped Michigan to do one with LSU.

Pretty certain Wichita will find plenty rivals... I can think of others who will be waiting when basketball season begins.
UConn
Memphis
SMU

Be careful thou dost not invoke the name of kensucky in vain lest swarms of fans empty out of thy nearest Walmart and descend upon thy helpless campus in a swarm of blue, wheezing and gasping and saying racist things about Tubby.
