Bobby Carpenter likened the Minnesota HC job to playing Zelda, where you just go around trying to collect obscure little trinkets the whole time.

Which programs, if any, have basically no rivals (P5)?

Maryland?  Rutgers?  Might be a program that has switched conferences in the past 20 years or so.  Louisville? 
UL - Kentucky


Rutgers might consider someone a rival, but that team looks at Rutgers like shit on their shoe.
.
Hell, Rutgers' rival are the NYC pro sports teams.

a trophy does not a rival make

Huskers had trophy with Missery, for example

I'd guess if they ever schedule a non-con game, the trophy would be on the line

The final Battle for the Bell?
That looks like something you could buy for $40 at a random antique store.

I'd like to see them in the AAC so they could play their true rivals.

Temple beckons.

I definitely consider NU a rival. UW has played more games against the nerds than any other team not called Minnie.


The logic is compelling, though I still don't like it for some gut reason.
