never say never. the fusker hate is grounded in many years of actual bad behavior on their part. it is impossible to replicate that level of hatred quickly. the wrong-doing has to be long term and significant.
sure, on one level, it is easy to "hate" oregon, for example, because of their noveau riche attitude in football glory. but, that "hate" won't have "sal is dead, go big red" or warden tom voting us down in the coaches poll to keep us from winning the nc outright. it won't have the hometown **** jobs by fusker alum refs (which still astounds me to this day that this is allowed). it won't have all the other slights and wrongs, large and small, that take a rivalry from good fun, on the field, "hate" to actual real hatred.
in time, anything can happen. but, part of me hopes that we never have to deal with things like that again.
Oregon is easy to hate because of their endless supply of stupid-looking uniforms, the fact that about the only reason for their success is because they happen to have Phil Knight in their back pocket, and Chip Kelly just comes across as extremely dislikeable.
I've always liked USC because they're a rival of ND, and well, that seals it.
Other than that the rest of the conference is just "meh" to me.
Stanford is my P12 most hated team.
They smoked CU in football, on the field and on the recruiting trail.
They smoked us in basketball. Twice.
They are red. (Those old habits die hard).
They are a private school (like Baylor) who are full of themselves. With all that money, you'd think they could buy some fans. They like to think of themeselves as elite. I'm not falling for it. Screw the trees, their non-smack talking fans, their ugly cheerleaders, and that BS better than you attitude.
When a loyal and dedicated Buff fan like Sacky has a hard time advising some kid to take a CU scholly over an offer from Stanford, then it becomes clear that tree is evil and is worthy of scorn.
I hate those guys.

Total smoke screen. The real reason: Petroleum Donors.
Liver, I haven't spent a whole lot of time in Oregon. However, in my brief time there, I came to the conclusion that it wouldn't be very hard to get them start ****ing their sisters while doing rails of meth off their backs.
This thread is the most entertaining one fro me since the Buffs joined the 12-Pac! Great reading!
I just have to respond to Liver's post though.
Not sure what games you been watching? Sober anyway! You said "the fusker hate is grounded in many years of actual bad behavior on their part."
I can't see your entire point, aside from the "Sal is Dead" thing. Castration is order for all those involved with that. There are bad fans of both teams. But I would have to day CU fans took the overall cake. They rivaled some of the worst in the country, aside from some of those drunken Penn State idiots.
It's all in fun, but let's properly call a turd a turd and not rewrite history. LOL!

Problem: It's very hard to hate a team with no fans.
Yes, we know all about the husker "myths" concerning cu fans. Throwing grandmothers down flights of stairs, piss bombs etc....More BS from the children of the corn.
The movie There Will Be Blood is pretty much based on Leland Stanford...except you'd have to replace the oil story with a robber barron railroad tycoon. FACT.
No one has ever been able to define for me "the worst fans in the country."
What do the worst fans in the country do? What do those drunken Penn State idiots do worse than the Nebraskan drunken idiots?

i'm talking about their program, its leaders, and associated institutions, not their fans, for the most part. the sal is dead thing was bad fans in action, but was never condemned by the institution either.
the warden tom coaches' poll vote was institutional bad behavior. the fusker alum ref jobbing CU in a conf. game is institutional bad behavior. the nebraska state police stopping several hundred caravaning CU students at the border to shake them down is institutional bad behavior. i could go on and on.
**** them. they are yesterday's news.
I mean I was doing 90 in a 75 zone on I-80 near Ogallala.
yeah, but the hookers, blow, grass, meth, and 10 cases of budweiser in the car were what really pissed them off.
Rep. This has to be a picture of Buff Surveyor. The image is exactly as I pictured him.
Now that would be believable except everyone knows that Jews don't drink Budweiser.
