It's more the stuff they forget, than that which they rationalize, in my opinion.
Ask any husker fan (not on this site, because we tend to batter these guys with it ceaselessly) about the "Sal" incident (documented in Sports Illustrated) or about the "oooooh, you mean that gun, yeah it's locked up in my office--didn't think you'd be interested in something like that during your felony investigation" event and they will simply have never heard of it, nor will they acknowledge it until you show them the article. And then they go right for the "when they cleared the student section of that game, it was the most awful thing I've ever seen in my life defense..."
**** corn aggie. **** the huskers forever.

Oh, yeah, the hidden gun article. We won't be needing this anymore.

Just checking in:
I see the "Hate" for Huskers still runs deep!
One thing for sure, Utah will never replace the Huskers. Not until they consistantly put an ass whipping on the Buffs for a few years then the Buffs find a way to come out of the funk brought on by losing. And we all know that isn't going to happen. Colorado is going to pretty much own Utah.

To start with Sacky is right, Utah will never focus their primary attention on CU as long as BYU exist in the same state as they do. The arrogance of BYU fans comes close and in some ways is worse than that of the corn fans, amazingly since the corn have actually won something at times while BYU only has one bogus NC in their history.
Utah instead will simply have a lot of envy for CU and will be an irritation with their "Look at us." pleading, reminiscent of a little brother trying to get attention from the older, more successful, and more popular sibling.
In the end CU will find someone in the PAC to truly dislike, most likey U$C, and the Utah matchup will take on a different sense. Nobody can ever be quite as obnoxious, quite as overbearing, quite as singlemindedly (and simplemindly) focused on a bunch of 18-23 year olds (90% of whom are from other places and can't wait to get the hell out) as Nebraska.
As time passes we will develop our rivalries within the PAC but they will never be the same as our Big 8/12 rivalries. Some of those took well over 1/2 a century to build. Others were built on the dramatic separation both geographically but moreso culturally between us as the other schools. As we talked about when we switched confences we have a lot more in common with the other schools and fans in the PAC (even to a degree with Utah.) Outside of a couple of decent kNU posters that we picked up over the years and we tolerated we never even found any common ground for discussion with our old conference mates. In the short time we have been here we have already added flukes and CannedDuck to our boards (granted he bought his way in photos) and a couple of others who are interesting to say the least.
Best bet, don't try to force rivalries, don't try to make up some kind of hatred or even dislike, just let it come naturally in time and accept it for what it is and becomes. We will thankfully never have to deal with another Nebraska, although it would be nice to figure out a way to get most of them out of our state. We won't even have to deal with anybody as dumb and newfound arrogant as the KjSU fans. Our new conference doesn't include a Texas.
Let's just enjoy it for what it is.

My experiences with Mormons have been typically positive. In fact, positive enough to make me suspect that it's more than coincidental.
Always feels like they're trying to recruit me.
with hookers and blow?
That would be a hell of a lot more effective.
I almost feel sorry for Utah fans. BYU fans come out of the woodwork on the scale of holier than thou Nub fans when Utah loses. So glad we only have to deal with CSU's 3 fans annually.

Well, I never said I didn't feel sorry for them. That's really another thread.
I don't need to look for a reason to hate puppies.

There are plenty of good reasons to visit Utah. And the best part is that most of them give you huge amounts of room to avoid the folks who live there.... :nod:
Moab is definitely a place to go spend a long weekend
Welcome to the board not-so-cleverly-disguised Husker @$$ Hat...
I think half the smack attributed to Buff Fans on their board is from BYU d!ck hedz...

Great win. It could have easily been more lopsided the way you guys came out. I'm still not feeling the rivalry. I'm pissed that we lost obviously considering what was at stake but all I'm feeling is disappointment in the Utes play, particularly in the first half, and admiration for the Buffs effort. This may or may not become a true rivalry but I certainly don't think it's close yet. The smack talk from both sides is relatively tame.
Someone posted earlier that Utah has 2 schools that think they're God's gift to the universe. It's obvious who one of those schools is but the other certainly can't be Utah, Weber St, or USU. None of those fan bases are like that. I can't vouch for UVSU or SUU though. I don't remember ever meeting anyone from those schools.

Was in Moab in the 70's, loved it. Hate to go there, place is crawling with a bunch of buy the latest model fleece and spandex wannabe cool, would be yuppies. Moab was great without the people, now it sucks unfortunately. Still some great places in that region though to go and get away from the a**holes.
Everything Ed Abbey warned about in Desert Solitaire seems to have come true.
Probably.
I've been surprised with BYU fans. I had no idea they were such douchebags. Before, if I thought of them at all it was in terms of "Koy's brother seems nice."

Most likely. They do that all the time. They usually slip up and give themselves away. Most of them are too stupid to pull it off.

Ooooooh, SUSU. It's probably those assholes. I remember them back when they were an NAIA school playing in the RMAC. And that wasn't nearly as long ago and they'd like you to think. Never liked those guys.... :lol:
But were those BYU fans pretending to be CU fans, or UU fans pretending to be BYU fans pretending to be CU fans? You can never tell with these crazy Utahans.... :wow:

Try living among them for a couple decades. No, on second thought don't. I wouldn't wish that on anybody. There coaches and players aren't any better than the fan base. They almost never give credit to the other team no matter how bad they lose. Coaches and players talk national championships in August. They say when they win it's because they're "living right on and off the field". They fabricate stories of players and families being drenched with cups of beer after the game (as if anyone is going to still have a full cup of beer left after a 4 hour game and then waste it on one of them).

How else are they going to explain to each other why they smell of beer when they leave the stadium?

I think a couple were CU fans pretending to be Nebraska fans pretending to be UU fans pretending to be BYU fans pretending to be CU fans. OK, I have a headache now!

A BYU LB actually said that after the 2008 game. Someone supposedly had a full cup of beer intact and made the drop to the field and made it through the celebration without spilling it and then threw it in his face. Cameras were all over the whole post game celebration and of course showed him making it off the field with no such drenching.
And then of course there was Max Hall's bull sh*t which he incidentally copied and pasted from comments he made about Arizona back before he transferred from ASU.
