fro daddy Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I can't speak for all fan bases but I haven't seen a single thread or statement from a MU fan regarding this particular dilemma. Tiger fans are more concerned as to who is going to replace Nebraska as the most anticipated football matchup. Nebraska will do well this year. The Wisconsin game is going to be one of the highlights of the 2011 CFB season. Martinez will be a lot more fun to watch now that he is in a different conference. Oklahoma will replace us. The past five or so years Missouri and Oklahoma have played good games. i dont think so. Maybe on the MU side, but not at all for OU. They will always have TX and OSU first. MU and NE were not true 'rivals' to all husker fans, but given the two years inbeween OU games, MU was about the closest thing NE had to a 'rival' the last 7 years or so. games were back and forth and their seemed to be some dislike and importance put on that game from both players/coaches and the fans. It also helps that the north was decided by that game in 06,08,09 & 10. yeah MU has KU, and we hate KU, but Nebraska always felt like there was something important riding on that game. I think most MU fans really want to beat OU, but its just not the same yet...we have yet to really upset the 'apple cart' by winning somewhat consistantly against them. But who really knows at this point, things are just going to be wierd for me for a while with the new schedules. 1 Quote Link to comment

All OU cares about is talking crap about UT and when they are done talking about them, then they will talk about OSU (which they think it is belittling themselves for even talking about OSU). MU will be what CU was to us if anything for OU. Just what Nebraska warned could happen is happening. The Texas network is causing all kinds of problems. And here’s the kicker. It’s not even Texas’ doing. All I can do is pick myself up off the floor from laughing so hard. Quote Link to comment

Machine from 8MM Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Nebraska had 1 win in ten tries against Texas in the Big 12. Even is Nebraska wins only 2 games out of their first ten against every Big Ten school, Texas still looks good. Not much of a dilemma....... Quote Link to comment

badger79 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 How about this dilemma? http://blog.newsok.com/berrytramel/2011/07/07/big-12-football-espn-fox-collusion-troubling/ Texas causing trouble for the rest of the conference? GEE, NOBODY SAW THIS COMING. Just like I predicted when the Longhorn Network was announced...the serfs will pay the lord for the privilege of watching their team. Not the serfs' team, the lord's team. Quote Link to comment

Even is Nebraska wins only 2 games out of their first ten against every Big Ten school, Texas still looks good. Not much of a dilemma....... You know what's funny? This thread is about the Big 12 conference and the only school you reference is Texas, cite something that has zero bearing on the topic at hand, and then finish up with "Texas still looks good. Not much of a dilemma......." Your post is a perfect example of what the real dilemma is for the Big 12. 3 Quote Link to comment
