Obligatory "Is Iowa a Rival" Thread

[beorach]

That’s right. It’s not cut and dried and fit into a nice little definition  like some want to make it out to be. 

What color is the sky in your world?  You're the one who was telling me I was wrong (highlighting what I posted and providing a negative, monosyllabic response).  You're playing victim now?  Please...

I don't understand how "everyone" thinks they're making the joke I was making.  BRB didn't put a period after his "No" response to me so I insinuated he was on it.  It's one thing to not get a joke but getting it just enough to think you were set up for a zinger...is funny in and of itself, I guess?

as Frost said, rivals are for fans.........i dont see any.

I just wanted an excuse to post a Departed gif.

What’s the weather outside?  It could be blue, grey, white....or many other colors.

Even though neither of us can even get 2nd in the West (kind of sad) it is hilarious that Frost's worst team he will ever have and Nebraska's worst start in school history would still be enough to beat Iowa AND be ahead of them in the B10 standings. Not too confident we win, but that would be epic to let the delusional Hawk fans know.

I voted yes because it seems like both fan bases treat it as such, generally speaking.  Which is really all it takes.  Admitting it isn't important.

I can understand.  I watched the Korean movie it's based on forever ago, too.  That's some good stuff.  Have you seen the Raid movies?  The plots aren't as good but the action...  Those guys clearly weren't insured.

Hehe, there's some similarity to the IA-NE one in that I'd guess at least one of us doesn't think it exists.  I'm cool with people having their own definitions for what a rivalry is but I'll argue with them or explain my side if they ask for it, directly or indirectly.

beorach vs. bigredbuster is bigger because I have something he wants.

The last game of the regular season will always be more meaningful, even if it's just the last taste in your mouth until next year.

They manufactured it with Iowa the way they did with Colorado.

But it works.

I want Iowa to pay for the sins of the previous 11 games.

Iowa smells like dead fish and hot garbage.

I have not. I'll check them out.

After listening to the Iowa guy on KFAB I've decided our relationship with Iowa in the Big Ten is about the same as our relationship was with Iowa State in the Big 12. It's another game.

Don't let him decide.
