don't have time to read all the reponses, and i don't know if someone has mentioned this, but...
I think UT/Bama is just as big a rivalry as OSU/Michigan...
but obviously, the media doesn't think that's the case because OSU/Michigan is broadcast EVERY year, regardless of the record of either school, without question... and we all know that the national networks didn't give a damn about broadcasting UT/Bama for the first time in 20 years.
On a side note, I think Bama/Auburn is a bigger rivalry than UT/Bama, Michigan/OSU, UF/FSU, FSU/Miami, Texas/A&M, Okla/Nebraska, UCLA/USC, etc...
But WITHOUT QUESTION.... THE biggest rivalry in the history of football, hands down, is Army-Navy. Period.
That's my opinion and I'm stickin' to it.
