I'm not looking for best... just the oldest.
I believe that number 1 on that list is Yale vs Harvard... Number 2 may be Army vs Navy.

Top 25? Calm down, Gungadin. Harvard-Yale is very old, I believe Lehigh-Lafayette is the oldest rivalry in Division I, Arizona-Arizona St. is the oldest in I-A, but Wisconsin-Minnesota is the oldest continuous rivalry in I-A. Notre Dame-Michigan dates back to the 1800s when UM supposedly taught the game to ND, and then beat them 8-0.
Try looking on Wikipedia.

Wrong. The oldest college football rivalry is Rutgers-Princeton. The most frequently played college football rivalry is Lehigh-Lafayette. The oldest continuously played football rivalry I am told is also Lehigh-Lafayette, although I'm trying to confirm that.

I know the oldest trophy for a rivalry football game is the Territorial Cup that goes to the winner of the ASU vs. UofA football game.
Go Wildcats!!!

The longest actually is Wisconsin and Minnesota, over 100 years they've been hating each other. The best is Army Navy, that game is the most insignificant game with the most hype!

Any answer that doesn't include Oregon/ Oregon State is just plain wrong.
UO/OSU is like the 5th or 6th oldest rivalry around. And the oldest west of the mississippi river.
