Northwestern Rivalry?

The first three games have been dog fights decided by 3,1,3. Every year it seems this game will be a toss up, could Northwestern turn into our first real rival in the Big Ten? Or is there not enough animosity between the two teams.

 
knapplc called it when we joined the conference.

And I hate him for it.

I brough this up a few weeks ago and got scolded that the purples only see Illinois as a rivalry.

Screw that! Were gonna force it on em whether they like it or not.

 
While northwestern could be a good rivalry with us, I think our main rival in the future will be Wisconson. The way our games with them have gone the past couple years, there is no other team I would rather beat next year and I think a lot of nebraska fans feel the same way

 
I think Northwestern could be more like Colorado and Wisconsin could be more like Oklahoma when it comes to our rivalries.

 
I'll say this: they are scrappy and the games are fun! But do they have enough show up at home to hate us?
