The Rumble in the Rockies is an American college football rivalry between the Colorado Buffaloes football team of the University of Colorado and Utah Utes football team of the University of Utah. After nearly five decades of dormancy, the rivalry was revived in 2011. From 1903 until 1962, Utah and Colorado played each other nearly every year. By 1962, they had played 57 games.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Colorado vs Utah )〕 At that time, it was the second-most played rivalry for both teams (Utah had played Utah State 62 times;〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Utah vs Utah St. )〕 Colorado had played Colorado State 61 times〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Colorado vs Colorado St. )〕). After the 1962 meeting, however, Colorado and Utah stopped playing each other in football. As part of the 2010–13 NCAA conference realignment, both Utah and Colorado were placed in the Pacific-12 Conference's new South Division. The first game since the realignment was played on Black Friday. The second game since the realignment was the first Black Friday college football game to be telecast by the Fox Broadcasting Company, which holds the exclusive over-the-air television rights to Pacific-12 Conference football (with the exceptions of road games against the Southeastern Conference (CBS) and Notre Dame (NBC)). Prior to the resumption of the rivalry, Colorado played Nebraska on Thanksgiving weekend since the formation of the Big 12 Conference in 1996 in front of a national television audience. Utah had traditionally played against BYU on Thanksgiving weekend, who the Utes had played every year since 1946, and all but 2 years since 1922. The Colorado–Nebraska football rivalry was discontinued due to realignment when Nebraska joined the Big Ten Conference, while the fierce Holy War rivalry game with BYU was moved to earlier in the season. Coincidentally, BYU also was part of the 2011 realigning of conferences as they left the Mountain West Conference to become a football independent. Despite the near half-century hiatus, the Colorado–Utah rivalry remains the fifth-most played rivalry in Utah's history, and the eighth-most played rivalry in Colorado's history.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Utah Opponents )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Colorado Opponents )〕 ==History== ''Colorado's history shaded █ black.
