ACC may not need TCU, but does the ACC NEED spirited rivalries and more
of them? In terms of college rivalries, I believe the SMU-TCU rivalry may be one of the more spirited and more competitive rivalries out there. I'm not just thinking in terms of football, but all sports. If we just want to focus on the "Battle for the Iron Skillet," then TCU currently leads the rivalry (53-43-7).
