Yes. KSU and NU is a strecth. More like KU and NU. The last 3 games have been heated!!
OK, neither one is really a rivalry. Have I mentioned how much I dislike KSU??
However this is what feeds into the 'rivalry' status. Look how many people's sigs are 'KSUcks' or 'Freeman Sucks', etc. If it wasn't a rivalry.....people wouldn't be so ademant about saying that. For instance Baylor...we know they suck...however nobody makes a point to tell how much they hate Baylor or want to beat the crap out of them...because they aren't a rival.
Analysts, magazines wouldn't consider it a rivalry if BOTH sides were so intent on voicing their dislike for the other one.....therefore, rivalry status.
aggy considers Baylor a rival sometimes and that one has heated up even moreso in the past couple of years.
Baylor has never beat us though. The reason most Husker fans hate Ksucks is because They have beaten us, and there fans are intolerable (spelling) about it. I mean Texas tech beat us by 60 points a few years ago, but they don't go around talking about it and trying to start stuff with Husker fans about it. Kitty fans football legacy consists of 6 gamesNU(98) NU (00) NU (02) NU (03) NU (04), and OU (03) That's what they base there football program on That's the only 6 games they ever want to talk about.
