StPaulHusker Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 How about if you don't think Iowa is a rival, stop trying to convince people to share your sentiment and vice versa. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

RedSavage Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Lets say we are win less going into this game, would beating a team like Iowa make you feel better about the season? Would your answer be the same if it were a team like MSU? For me, the answer would not be the same. I always want to win and wouldn't trade the wins we have just to beat Iowa but beating those smelly bastards to our east just makes me feel warm inside. That has the makings of a rivalry for me, personally. God I hate Iowa. 1 Quote Link to comment

TGHusker Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 No rival. We haven't had any meaningful games to really establish a rivalry. Once we battle Wisc every year for a Div championship and then battle OSU or Mich for the Conf Championship then we will have a rival. Unfortunately, NU hasn't lived up to its end of the bargain - we've been subpar for too long for anyone to consider us a true rival. I think rivalry is something that develops over a long period of time. KSU and KU are still rivals even though KU has stunk for the past 10 years or so. But my KSU friend circles KU on his calendar in spite of KU's record. If OU moves to the Big 10 - then I think we can start talking about a rival - but so much time has past, many have not experienced that kind of rivalry. So sad. Quote Link to comment

Then, they proceeded to beat us three times in a row. However, it was a fairly short lived rivalry when Dick Nudeweasel wussified them. Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 People getting fired up for a game, especially ones between two schools with a shared border, makes sense. People getting fired up at people because of that and calling them dumb makes no sense 1 Quote Link to comment
