Rivalry week after Thanksgiving is up there among the best traditions in sports. You can throw out the records when your favorite team takes on your most hated team.

I know it sounds like a cliché but a two-win Arizona Wildcats team defeated the heavily-favored Arizona State Sun Devils in 2011 and 2016. So at least it’s not an empty cliché.

There are many ways a rivalry game can be memorable, but nothing tops missing the last second field goal. It guarantees a close, exciting game and you laugh at the other team for missing it.
