Colorado and Colorado St. seem to have wars in their series. Colorado has pretty consistantly got the best athletes in Colorado. Colorado State picks up the pieces and gets a lot of good football players that are not necessarily great athletes. Put this with a good coach and you got a chance.
Texas Tech basically does the same thing in Texas. The let Texas, Texas ATM, and Oklahoma take the cream of the crop. Then they pick up all the kids that are good football players but not superior athletes. And they have a chip on their shoulder for not being picked so they will knock of 1 or more of the aforementioned almost every year.
Good coaches put with real players can do some pretty amazing things. Its a lot tougher in the pros to get away with this. This is why college football is so full of extra incentive for players and excitement for the fans. A lot of very good football players get bypassed by the perennial powers because they dont run 4.4 40's.
