Just like last offseaon's thread...who do you consider our biggest rival or closest thing to a rival? Why?

Voted Mizzou solely on the past 10 years or so, trophy involved, and general dislike between the majority of the fanbases.

Edit: Plus we play them every year, for now.

this year our offense was our biggest rival :sarcasm Don't quite get while some are quick to throw out NU does not have a rival. Are we too cool of a fan base to have a rival? I like to think rivals are great, and I would think all North teams are rivals if they are in NU's way of the North title. Except KSU of course <_<

 
OK, with the change in question, I voted Oklahoma based on our history of rivalry (none existed before with any of the other Big 8 teams) and because they are the most contemporaneous team to Nebraska in the Big XII.

 
I said OU with a lot of it based on history, and with this years game being entertaining.

With that being said, I do feel like especially these next two years for sure playing Texas each season, and with what happened I agree with you guys that Us and Texas are gunna start to provide some very memorable games.

 
Guess who I voted for... <_<

Mainly because after the fun we had this year, we have decided to make embarrasing you on national TV a tradition... :box

We don't seem to have a real rival since the Big 12 stole the annual OU game. Texas is probably who I most want to see us beat, but a year to year rival right now seems to be Mizzou. I think it changes based on who is playing best and winning the division. It was KSU in the beginning of the Big 12, then it was CU for a while. So, right now I have to say Mizzou.

But I really, really wanna whale the crap outta Texass.

 
i voted Missouri because i believe there offensive approach vs our defensive approach will make for some very interesting games for years to come!! and last year that was a very entertaining game to watch...also there fan base is very much douchebag like

I can see a real rivalry developing with Missouri if they keep improving. It would be nice if they'd make a national splash with some key major victories and some BCS wins. That would spice things up nicely.

 
I voted "Other" because the team I want to beat most each year is the team that I see as the best in the Big 12 North. Last year it was Missouri. Other years it has been CU or KSU. Traditionally our rival is Okalahoma, of course. However, since we don't play them every year I think some of the luster is gone. (not to mention that Texas is a much bigger rival for them.)
