Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 4741425, member: 27"] This rivalry predates cars and highways. Back when [USER=381]All4SU[/USER] was a boy, the Colgate team and fans would take a train from Hamilton to Syracuse and major parties would ensue at the Hotel Syracuse and all the other hotels in town. This was the biggest event of the sporting year. It was a huge rivalry that captured all of upstate NY. Syracuse has never had a rivalry in football since remotely close to it. Hard to believe. Even harder to believe: the win Saturday will finally give Syracuse an advantage in the all time series between the schools. Colgate loved playing the game when they would win regularly. I don't blame them for not wanting to play Syracuse very often any longer. [/QUOTE]
