Unfortunately yes. I always hoped we would see the Black Friday showdown have a winner take-all trip to the playoffs. We haven’t been in that galaxy yet.To both sides?
Actual question. And of course I’m talking about major sports.

Will be an awesome game Thursday!
You have young kids, which makes you relatively young. Assuming 30s. You’re too young to even know Nebraska’s old rivalries. Lots of YouTube watching, I’m sure.well, if this is ever going to become an actual rivalry (today we are nothing more than business associates), games like this are a good place to start

Neither have they in football.Unfortunately yes. I always hoped we would see the Black Friday showdown have a winner take-all trip to the playoffs. We haven’t been in that galaxy yet.

I recall an important baseball series in April a few years back.You should already know the question to that answer
yep.Im in my late 30's and I know our old rivalries.
Was in high school during the late 90s, went to numerous games. Two degrees from UNL during the Solich and Callahan years. I’ve been to pretty much every old Big 8 school (never made it to Okie St), didn’t make it to the Texas schools in Big 12. Been to conference championship games. You can kindly f$ck off with your nonsense. You were wearing diapers during the glory run.tread lightly here, rory.
this water is much to deep for an ignorant casual like you.
Clearly an entitled douche who’s living off his family’s success. Seems about right.yep.
@RoryMurray doesn't and will never understand what it's like to breathe NU athletics from birth and be raised in a die hard Husker household.
generations of my family are woven through the history of NU athletics. several played for Bob & Tom. I ate at the training table before we beat #5 CU (an actual rival) at home in 1996.
if I had to guess Rory isn't even a Nebraskan and likely did not attend UNL. he's just a butthurt dweeb.
so now playing for NU = generational wealth?Clearly an entitled douche who’s living off his family’s success. Seems about right.
on the contraryIowa is a rivalry - as much as it pains us. My first bout with Kong was on this very topic my first week on the board. Unfortunately neither team has played for much which makes it less exciting than our old traditional rivalries. But in terms of the extra juice that comes from playing the Hawkeyes and the back and forth between fans - there is zero doubt in my mind that it’s a rivalry. Hopefully we can make it mean something in football.
Sorry, I forgot you’re not too smart. You’re bragging about family members playing for Nebraska in yesteryear, like it’s a birthright that makes you a superior fan. Hence, living off your family’s success. Did you play for Nebraska? No, they did. You can continue riding their coattails, the ones who actually achieved somethingso now playing for NU = generational wealth?
sure thing, little fella.
well, if this is ever going to become an actual rivalry (today we are nothing more than business associates), games like this are a good place to start
Yep.on the contrary
we are desperate to have an actual rival
we haven't had one in more than a decade after enjoying our spot among the best rivalries in all of sports for 50+ years

my post was simply much needed context for you after this:Sorry, I forgot you’re not too smart.

having a real rivalry makes everything betterWe’re not desperate to have an actual rivalry.
You make it sound like waiting for a date that your desperate that they call
Backing down. Thank you, little boy clown.my post was simply much needed context for you after this:
but, okay, Rory. I'm sure this line of posting made sense in your feelings.
So we continue to beat our chest and say that Mizzou, Oklahoma and Colorado are Our rivalries? Can’t wait to play them … someday, maybe?It’s not a rivalry and never has been. It’s manufactured by the pro B1G crowd in an attempt to justify the move to the B1G and the subsequent spiral that we’ve done since then. One basketball game will not change that but I guess it’s something. For the first time in 15 years, they have something.
Backing down from what? The unintelligible butthurt nonsense you posted?Backing down. Thank you, little boy clown.
I’ve never insinuated that it wasn’t a rivalry, because it is but according to Kong, we’re desperate for one that’s a joke.If it isn't a real rivalry its only because they always beat us.
Yes, its a rivalry. Record be damned. Its a rivalry
Like clockwork, this is your response when you have nothing to come back with.Backing down from what? The unintelligible butthurt nonsense you posted?
Nah. Just waiting for an actual volley.
“you’re not worth the time!” she says before doing nothing but thinking about/posting in response to me for multiple consecutive days
*chef’s kiss*
never change, Rory. So precious.
“Called out”Like clockwork, this is your response when you have nothing to come back with.
You had nothing when you were clearly wrong about this year’s CFP and the B1G, SEC, and Big 12 conference representation and results.
You can’t provide any rebuttals regarding the B1G’s success so far in this year’s men’s tournament.
And now, you tried to use your family’s history with the football program as some justification as why your opinion on a rivalry is somehow superior, yet you probably weren’t old enough to actually remember playing in the Big 8. It’s cool your family played for the program, but it doesn’t make your opinions any more valid.
You’ve got nothing when you get called out.
Time to grow up, little Kong. Resorting to childish name-calling now. And the bolded statement is so hilarious and cringy at the same time.“Called out”
A favorite phrase of the dipshit
I said in Oct the B1G would be a 3 bid league and the SEC 5+. You keep saying I was wrong - wrong about what? post the quotes.
You (a moron) also continue to conflate the words “hate” and “suck”. This is yet another attempted argument that completely misses the mark - i never once predicted any outcome regarding the B1G and the tourney, just that I and every other right thinking red blooded American hates this conference and its non-NU members for infinite reasons.
and I am a superior fan to you with much more valid opinions. You don’t post any opinions
Since you followed me over here like a little puppy I will post it for my free board friends who won’t have access:Time to grow up, little Kong. Resorting to childish name-calling now. And the bolded statement is so hilarious and cringy at the same time.
From the Inside Nebraska board after the CFP:
![]()
You were on the warpath all fall claiming the SEC and even the Big 12 were superior conferences to the B1G. Then the CFP happened and the one Big 12 team that made it scored a ZERO points. The same Tech team you were touting all season. And the SEC didn’t make it to the championship game, again. You also claimed throughout the season that Indiana was a nobody because they hadn’t beaten anyone dating back to their loss to ND in the previous year’s playoff.Since you followed me over here like a little puppy I will post it for my free board friends who won’t have access:
(spoiler: it’s the usual refrain you see on this board quarterly from the witless/brainless)
Title: Kong Is Wrong Again (super original!)
The B1G dominated the bowl season
The SEC was horrible in bowl season
The Big 12’s only team Texas Tech scored zero points in the CFP.
Indiana won the natty. The same team you said beat nobody and was a joke all season, going back to losing to ND in last year’s playoff.
B1G has won the last three championships, with three different teams.
Just admit you’re wrong. For once.
Yawn.
