The Battle Line Rivalry works for me.

ArMogeddon sounds like somebody tried a little too hard.

All of the attempts at naming this game sound like somebody's  12 year old daughter talking about her boyfriend.

If it's going to be a true rivalry then the name will come from something of significance that happened during or around the time of one of the games.

Melodrama on TV is bad enough so why let it infect this game?

Why does it need a name? I watched LSU and AM last night, they didn't have some cheesy name for their game.

It doesn't need a name or trophy. It's just a silly marketing ploy.

I know it is all geographical but for us folks in northern Arkansas, this is going to be a really fun game. There are a lot of Mizzou fans in northern AR and a lot of Hog fans in southern MO. We are all super excited that we get to play MO every year.

Battle of the Ozarks seems appropriate

For now it is just another game. Over time I'm sure some good names will develop. Borderline Rivalry is just not one of them. Dang, "Hillbilly Hoedown" beats Borderline Rivalry!

It is not a rivalry game, and may never be.  Why bother calling it anything?

I don't think naming it is necessary, but this probably makes more sense than any of the others.

Or something similar (but probably won't happen since hillbilly is a derogatory term in much of the nation, especially urban areas--but doesn't bother me at all)


  • The Ozarks Fued
  • Showdown in the Ozarks
  • The Bootlegger Bowl

But its not Borderline Rivalry it's Battle Line Rivalry.  Borderline Rivalry, altho not very good either, makes way more sense.  What does Battle Line Rivalry even mean--it's nothing any of us can relate to really.

Probably because they didn't let Shelter Insurance come up with some stupid name.

Where's the choice for "Frito Chili Pie Bowl"?

Because, why do we have to name it?

let the games (in all sports) play out, and when/if a "real" rivalry ensues, then the name will come naturally.

It seems like We're just as eager to manufacture this rivalry, as We complain about the SEC is/was when they changed our schedule & perm East opponent?

IMO, our rival depends on who we play on any given week.

Just another Conf Game is best

But if you really want to start selling it - the ARMO-geddon is a good start

The Battle Line is a marketing Laugh'er

Sums it up. it will never rise to the level of Hogs Vs LSU, Aggies, OM, State, AU or Bama. SEC office screwed us in this whole deal, just another reason to hate LSU and Aggies. Columbia is just a half way point between STL and KC. Place to get gas rivalry?

I like the Bible Bowl, in honor of the former Big 12 referee who determined the inaugural game.

I voted something else.

We should call it, "Missouri @ Arkansas" in odd numbered years and "Arkansas @ Missouri" in even numbered years.

This.  Missouri is no rival game.  Never has been and probably never will be. Arkansas will dominate this series and there will be no rivalry to it. 

Try as they might rivalry games just can't be dictated by the media and a conference office.

I think it should be called the ARKANSAS RAZORBACK vs THE MISSOURI TIGERS!  Then if it deserves to be a rivalry then it will be!
