Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 2723356, member: 26"] Why is it sad? That's what makes rivalries exciting - dislike between coaches, players, fan bases, etc etc. Perhaps the next generation who didn't live thru the 39 page complaint to the NCAA's, Pat's not-so-subtle attempt to take down Geno, Geno's constant tweaking of Pat and Tennessee, Tenn fans feeling UCONN cheated to get Maya (and used Pat's sexual orientation against Tennessee), UCONN surpassing Tennessee as the best program ever in WCBB, etc etc... Plus the fact that when the 2 teams met over 20 times, it was usually #1 vs. #2 - a truly gargantuan heavyweight battle that almost always had huge implications for the WCBB landcscape... Perhaps that next generation will not remember as strongly and "move on" as you say... [/QUOTE]
