I don't see any blowouts either way. I give the Big 10 respect, they are not as weak a confrence as people think. If you are a husker, you should know that our program has been built on Big 10 plays for the most part since 1964. That is why we belong in the Big 10 and it sure beats watching Bevo shit on TV every week! I look forward to the Buckeyes comming to Lincoln, they have never met before. And Penn State? Even womans volleyball is exiting, there ALL mean bitches! GO BIG RED!
Wow Nebraska fans---------1st Big 10 game is AT WISCONSIN. Maybe the toughest environment in college football to play in (and yes before some dumb ass asks---- Ive been to most of the SEC stadiums). 2nd Big 10 game-----OHIO STATE. Not a very nice introduction to our new brothers.
@hvillio22 We're OK with it. We know what we are getting ourselves into. We know the Big 10 is a rugged grind and even if we were to succeed there we'd probably have to go against an SEC team in the postseason and like them or not the SEC is king of the mountain.
But, trust us when we say it's better than being stuck in a league with the Horns and the rest of their stooges. All we ever ask for is a fair opportunity.
@hvillio22 I agree 100%. We might see Nebraska start Big 10 play off with an 0-2 record. Especially if Russell Wilson transfers from NC State to play for the Badgers
@hvillio22 yeah hopefully OSU gets their starters back before they meet though Nebraska has a QB thats faster than pryor was, but OSU is not that bad at containing fast Qbs for example Denard Robinson.
just keep in mind, theres no such thing as a high powered offence here. Thats only in conferences where theres no defence. Believe me, its some real defence here. The days of playing against spread offences are gone, lol except for michigan, but then again they dont play well anymore anyways.
@eddieisfiction Is everybody serious thats typing these comments?? The big 10 defense is the best out of all conferences? The big 12 is way above the lowely big 10. Nebraska is stepping down in compitition. I see Nebraska taking the spotlight in the big 10 and all other teams taking 4-5 years to catch up. I think that all the media will freak when they found out their "beauty conference" is actually way over rated. . keep dreaming people.reality will come into play soon.
That's the problem, the BIG 12 doesn't revolve around Texas. The fact that people thought it did led to the dissolution of the conference. And now you have to go begging to the PAC-10.
KU, K-State, Missouri, Iowa State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Baylor, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech, I have something to say from the bottom of my heart. I'm sorry you are continueing to get screwed by Texas. Their greed drove us away. I know Dr. Tom always takes the high road and the classy path, so something big was happening here. I wish you the best of luck in the new "Texas Conference" from here on out, you will need it to win Big XII Champs. If I were you, I would get out while you still can!!!
Theres only two things that matter in nebraska , football and research . so yes the big ten is a perfect fit . Football football football , research research research .Even sick inhumane human research . They both generate lots of money and thats what its all about .
Nebraska isnt going to be a dominant team in the Big Ten for awhile. The Great teams in the Big Ten are Ohio State, Iowa and Penn State. If Nebraska can beat one of them then they might have a chance.
@Nizoahx23 I think maybe next year depending on what they do this year Michigan could step up an be a dominant team in the Big Ten. Ohio State and some of the other Big Ten teams are not the best at defending the spread. So It could be possible that Mighigan could get a winning season and a good bowl bid this year.

@walleye2416 lol no offence, big 12 is a joke. Theres no defence in the big 12. Texas high powered offence only looks high powered. Theres no defence in the big 12. Alabama proved that last season. Just get over yourselves. Big 12 is a joke that has no defence. When nebraska moves conferences they will find out soon enough.
-dont bother saying anything differently, no one in their right mind that knows anything about sports will agree with you. Texas is a joke. Proven last year.
@eddieisfiction texas wasn't the only school in the past few years to show how big a joke the big 12 seems to be. its like the ACC and Big East. but the Big 12 is terrible against other conferences in bowl games. look at oklahoma vs florida for the 2008-09 national championship. Oklahoma was a joke in that game. nebraska truly is stepping up their opponents
@SUPERWITCHCRAFT: The Big XII has had more reps at the National Title Game this past decade. It's just as competitive as the Big XII. The boys might just be a little bit faster too. No disrespect to the new conference. I'm glad we're coming to the Big Ten and I appreciate the well-wishes from current Big Teners. But Cosgrove ran the same defense at NU that he did in the Big Ten. 2007 was his final year and we had record lows in D.
@SUPERWITCHCRAFT yeah that sounds intelligent. . .Check NU score against ARKANSAS STATE last year . . then check the Iowa score against the same team. . .i'll explain for ya.. Nebraska(the REAL powerhouse) played Arkansas state like they were a junior high team. . .Iowa played them like they were USC in top form or something. . .
glad to be in the new Big 12! finally got rid of texas. hey texas have fun in the Pac-10. warning to the Pac-10...Texas will try to take over the conference, dont let it happen. go big red!
Gotta laugh when they say it isn't about jealousy with other teams: it is about MONEY. Nothing more, nothing less. Happy to have Big Red in the Big Ten. Question is if the PAC-10 and Big-10 will become the PAC-16 & Big-16.
the best conference is coming to an end nebraska is going to a bad and over rated conference and soon the pac whatever will be the best confrence dominated by Oklahoma
@WHO9ER Oklahoma is good year in and year out in the toughest confrence well to bad that conference is being destroyed but Oklahoma,texas,oklahomastate,and texas tech will destroy the oringinal pac10 did you whatch the pacific life holiday bowl nebraska33 Arizona 0 nebraska will do the same thing to over rated ohio state and the rest of the big ten.
Is Nebraska a speed team? Hell no. So Ohio State wont struggle with them cuz they are not a speed team or conference like the SEC. Nebraska is a smashmouth tradition, northern football just like Ohio State. If Notre Dame can prove they have a decent coach (with all the 4 and 5 star recruits they get), they are the ones I am worried about joining, not Nebraska.
@jyoung6661 you realy shouldnt be woried about ND because they have hired another offensive coach. they couldnt stop anybody last year and endded up with 6 wins brian kellys team will be no different last year almost all of there a games were very close and they cave up over 30 points a game. Nebraska will be better than them and we will kill ohio state
@woolybeast9 I highly doubt they will dominate... They're gonna go 9-3 and 8-4 most years... but hey maybe once or twice every decade they might make a run at the NC

I got some other ideas for rivalries:
NU-Minnesota: Battle for the Dakotas
NU-Wisconsin: Alvarez Cup (Barry is a proud ex-Husker)
NU-Iowa: Carter Lake (trailer trash IA village on NE side of Missouri River) Custody Battle (loser claims it)
NU-Illinois: Corn Bowl
NU-Northwestern: Gary Barnett Trophy (he obsessed over us while at Colorado)
