I just think it is terrible that a long-term rivalry has been thrown in the trash like this.
Dayton and
Xavier have been playing each other off and on since 1920, they played every year from 1945-2013.
This rivalry predates WWII, the MCC years, the A10 years, and the BE years.
No one respects tradition anymore.
Some things in life should not ever change with the passing of time/whatever else is going on in the surrounding world.
Several other longtime rivalries around the country have also died because of realignment.
All of it is terrible.
