I traveled to CR and QC at least 2 times a month for 15+ years
Definitely deep jealousy there as well. maybe not quite the "hatred" as Western Iowa
DIfferent types of jealousy IMO
In Texas- where I spent a huge amount of time for 7-8 years and 2-3 times a year now- they dislike NU because we won National Titles without cheating- no population base, not huge amount of $$ compared to them. They would bring up a lot of silly stuff to bring NU down- Cheapen the National Titles- mostly made up stuff. They have an embarrassment of riches down there with very little to show for it in last 40+ years. I guess I would be embarrassed too if I was them.
Iowans have a much different deal going on.
Making fun of how serious NU takes its football
Revelling in any slip up an NU team makes
