husker_99 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Looks like Iowa but the Big Ten did say they would change the divisions around to keep it competitive. I don't like that. Quote Link to comment
kyle sibert Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Well I live in Ohio and most Ohio State fans root for the huskers. Kinda similar teams really. I think Penn State will be. I know a few Penn State fans and they all hate us from 1994... Could someone explain to me the Iowa thing? Quote Link to comment
papersun87 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 We're going to be in a division with Michigan and playing a regular annual game with Penn State, two of the winningest programs in college football. Add in Iowa for them being our annoying next door neighbors and we've got three natural rivals right there. I'd expect any rivalry with Michigan and Penn State to be more of a "gentleman's rivalry" and one with Iowa to be a "I hate your friggin' guts, go die" type of rivalry. Quote Link to comment

WYHusk Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Iowa! Farmageddon, baby! Quote Link to comment
n.e.husker Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Id like to have it be wisconson, but having Iowa after thanksgiving and also the fact that they look up to us will probably develop into a rivalry. Cant wait for the skers to roll into Happy Valley next year. Ill be there fer sure. Quote Link to comment
papersun87 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 A friend I have from Indianola, IA, says that part of why he and his fellow Iowa fans hate Nebraska is that we . . . expect to win. Quote Link to comment
Stuntz 2 Crouch Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Iowa! Farmageddon, baby! Bonus points and some award for "Farmageddon"! I say Iowa is a given for the new "border war rival". Then the others listed here, Ohio St, Penn St, Michigan, basically whoever else is fighting for top-dog. Insert those mentioned in the place of Tex-ass, Okie-homa, Okie-State. Quote Link to comment

I find it hard not to want to beat the absolute holy $&!@ out of Ohio State every year though. I'm just tired of constantly hearing about the Buckeyes despite how good they are. They have to be beat.

dergibog Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Here's another vote for Northwestern. There will be two teams wearing an "N" on their helmets, and those in Evanston lay claim to the "real" NU. "Why," they ask, "is the University of Nebraska 'NU'? Northwestern University is the real NU." The battle for the N every year. Loser has to take the N off the helmet for the following year's game. And they're purple Wildcats, so there will be a little nostalgia for those missing the Big 12. Quote Link to comment
