Not just in sports, but admissions and loyalty and devotion to the school. There's no "Penn State/Penn" rivalry. And the Pitt/Penn State rivalry pretty much died when PSU entered the Big XII. It's still around, but not nearly what it used to be (i.e. when you couldn't wear the other school's shirts on campus).
This is what a lot of people in PA are meaning when they say they think that it's different.

Then you have Arkansas, Tennessee and LSU. Those are the flagship schools. People go to Vanderbilt but not for sports.
