Biggest Rival?

[husker249]

I would have to go with the barfaloes because their fans are really mouthy and stupid

[tattooedhusker]

Being mouthy and stupid doesn't make them our rival. I'm stuck with Oklahoma

[Spartness]

I don't know if we have a true rival since we don't play OU every year. You can say CU, KSU or MU are kind of but not like it was with OU. It seems like we lack that big rivalry. NU and OU need to play every year. Perhaps we should play Iowa every year -- that could be a natural rivalry.

There are rivalry games, Like NE vr. OU in the great Big 8 days. MU and OSU in the Big Ten. Alab. and Aub.

Then there are the Love to win/Hate to lose games. NE Vr. CU

...and then there are the teams you hate because they play so good, USC (now) and at times Miami, Florida, Penn State, Alabama.

 

For a rival to be a rival there just has to be the down in your gut feeling that if you get beat you'll die and if you win you'll cry. Its what makes college football, all college sports for that matter, King of the Hill.

I agree with OU being a big rival (I live in Oklahoma), but to be a really big rival i think you need to play every year like we do with Colorado. I just think that they are classless like when their drunk fans were throwing whisky bottles and everything on the field in Boulder in 05. Its very satisfying to watch us beat the crap out of them year in and year out. Also Dan Hawkins saying" Our worst days as a buffolo are better than the best days as a cornhusker." The guy is an idiot.

Oklahoma always has been always will be. IMO

We don't have a real rival.

"beating them year in and year out"...really? dont you have to actually beat them year in and out to make that claim. Dan Hawkins is right, Nebraska is a dump

And you're a tool....coincidence?

To me though OU is our traditional rival that has been taken away, and even though the Puffs and the media are trying to make them our rival, they will never be our rival. a rivalry has to be somewhat of a give and take, when one side holds a greater than 70% winning percentage over the other it is not a rivalry.

 

 

To me our rival is whichever team is currently "up" in the conference in a given year. NU has always been a top team traditionally, the conference just rotates which other team(s) are as well. - I'm speaking historically, the past 10 years or so have been an anomaly to this statement but the statement as a whole has held true in the past and will hold true in the future.

I voted mizzou, because for the last few years we've been alternating win/loss with them the most (who ever has home field wins) and both teams bring their "A" games whenever we play each other. I'm only 19 so the OU rivalry was practically dead when i started watching football (well, they sucked we were dominant... not much of a rivalry imo, then the big 12 was formed and the rivalry went down the drain).

 

Rivalry raking.... IMO

1. Mizzou

2. K-St. (I live on the boarder of Kansas)

3. sCUm

4. OU

5. Texas, and their not a rival I just hate them

[hack]

OU is our rival. now whether nebraska is oklahoma's rival you'd have to ask them.

 

they lead the series...

 

Nebraksa 37 wins

Oklahoma 43 wins

and three ties just to keep it interesting.

 

the universe will never be right until nebraska and oklahoma play EVERY thanksgiving.

[mwj98]

Ralphie looks good....right between the potatoes and gravy! Cu sucks! always has, always will. They don't even qualify as a rival.

[husker249]
