We will have a new rival. It always happens.This is funny to me bc the biggest game of the regular season for us is Miami/FSU. Do we really want that game to become akin to playing Duke? In your heart of hearts, do you want this rivalry to die forever?
Many of us can never forgive FSU for the way they treated UM in the mid/late 90’s. Coaches like Chuck Amato using the death of Marlin Barnes to negatively recruit against us. Bowden himself saying there was no rivalry.
I know it’s odd to hold a sports grudge for 30 years, but we do. We hope that FSU and UF (letting us score and taking us off the schedule) are forever destroyed and left on the ash heap of history. And then we hope for the same to ND (Catholics v convicts and the Cleveland Gary fumble) and finally OSU (2002 Fiesta Bowl).
The order may change for some but these 4 are always at or near the top. And then we will have new rivals to hate. And the circle of life continues. Hakuna Matata
