Are Oxford and Cambridge rivals?

Question

Just wondering if they are rival colleges or if they were in the late 70s-early 80s.

Answer 1

Yes, they are rival Universities. Cambridge and Oxford are the best two Universities in the UK, and come at number 2 and 3 in the world. A little rivalry is normal: see the boat race.

Answer 2

Yes, as the universities are fighting for the number one spot! But is not as bad, as it seems they do have many people that mingle between both of the universities!
