The Dan Le Batard Show · Draft Night in Pittsburgh: Ty Simpson's Triumph & Rivalries That Died · 24 Apr 2026 podcast

Obviously, I thought NFL when you brought up this topic, but it's so hard to find new rivalries in the NFL.

Seahawks-Niners is really the only one you can think of, and then you can go to the newer teams in the NFC and the AFC South, like the Panthers, whoever.

But even then, those haven't been established as real rivalries because those teams haven't been successful.

So then I started to branch out in the other sports, and the biggest one, which might be one of the top five most intense rivalries in all of sports right now, the first one that jumped to mind is Panthers-Lightning.

Because the Panthers are finally successful, and that was always the Florida team's...

It's supposed to be the Florida rivalry, but it's not actually a rivalry until you play each other in the playoffs.

And really specifically until each team has beaten each other in the playoffs, I think.

It's like the thing that you have to do there.

So the Lightning had gotten the Panthers a couple times, and then finally in 2024, the Panthers got the Lightning.

And it was already intense, it was already heated, and those two teams really hated each other.

But once the Panthers finally got over the hump against the Lightning, it felt like that took off.

And I think that's such a big thing about rivalries that we don't talk about enough, is you gotta play in the playoffs, and you gotta beat each other in the playoffs.

Because...

But so many of those NFL rivalries are like legacy rivalries because the divisions have been around for a long time and the teams have always played each other.

So you have to like kind of branch out to the other sports.

And like like I said, like I could.

Well, Florida did play Florida State in the 1996 Sugar Bowl.

That was the only one.

Yeah, but we showed them in the national championship game who the better team was.

We beat their ass in the national championship.
