You can do it with most teams. There would be an annual game between a "rival" between an NFC and AFC team at neutral or college field. Most teams could be matched pretty easily. Others would be a challenge or a bit of misfit. For example:

Steelers/Eagles - Beaver Stadium in State College
Cowboys/Texans - U of Texas - Austin
Bears/Colts - Notre Dame
Redskins/Ravens - Univ of Maryland or UVA
Niners/Raiders - Cal or Stanford
Lions/Browns - Ohio St or Michigan
Chiefs/Rams - Univ of Missouri



Others you would have to force feed, but it could be made to work.




I think you mean geographical proximity to a university day.

None of the pairing you've proposed represent rivalries of any real significance.
Even geographical proximity doesn't hold water given the moves of the Rams and Raiders.


Unless you hate Eagles and Steelers fans, why would you
