Bring back the Bones Rivalry

Glad to see someone else misses The Battle for the Bones as much as I do.

I guess it has been too long ago, but I would have put Bama vs Georgia Tech somewhere on that list. I remember the furor over the Darwin Holt smashing of Chick Granning's face resulting in thrown bottles and Bryant walking onto Grant Field wearing a football helmet. Tech's Bobby Dodd blamed that incident for ending the rivalry and exiting the SEC (along with Tulane) shortly after. It was about that time that Furman Bisher (of the AJC paper) wrote the story for the Saturday Evening Post of Bryant and Butts talking on a phone about "fixing" the Bama vs UGA game. Between the two, there was enough poison to kill any rivalry.

Don’t Michigan-Ohio St and Alabama-Tennessee play every year?

It is a dig that they are now so one-sided that only one of the teams shows up. I guess they missed the blue font lol

I'd love another trip to West Point!

Hopefully this will resume as a conference game. Memphis v UAB as the final game of the season for both teams...with the Bones & a division title on the line.

I'd love the trip to Annapolis that was scheduled before the shut down! FRW!

I always loved Auburn vs Tenn. Traditionally the 2nd game of the season and set the tone for the winner.

Where is Oklahoma - Nebraska on this list?

I didn’t see Pitt vs Pedophile State

That guy tweets a lot of worthless graphic crap. He thinks he's way funnier than he is.
