I'm of the opinion that all this author did was list WVU vs. another team in these rankings. Obviously, there's not a lot of long history to be had to make bitter rivalries in the Big East such as those in, say, the SEC. But I kinda thought USF-Rutgers should have been in there. I think we hate each other more than WVU hates them or Louisville.

I would think USF-Louisville has the makings of a rivalry, because it began when we were both in CDOA.  The home team has always won in the series, until this year I hope.

UCF-Cincy is more a rivalry in my opinion.  They've had our card more times than we've had theirs.  They were also the reason we were denied a bowl in our 9-2 season before joing CUSA.

I agree. USF x L'ville would be our best rivalry thus far, as there is the CDOA history and the fact that L'ville has a big fan showing when they visit Tampa. It's hard to take a look at the conference as a whole and say - yeah, that one team right there, is head and shoulders above the rest as far as our 'rivalry' is concerned, but L'ville would be the closest.

L'ville is hated most by the coaching staff, but for some reason I haaaaaaate Rutgers!

I think that was truer before, when Petrino was their coach and ran up the scores on us. Today, I think the coaching staff would have more hatred for Rutgers with Schiano.
