	I can not help but lol at the hatred for Nebraska leaving. Missouri tried to do the exact same thing that Nebraska did, but failed; I can not wait to crush those petty little Tigers in Arrowhead this Novemeber. As far as Nebraska goes, good bye, your basketball program will not be missed; same goes to you colorado. -----signature----- Basur - 50 Jedi Shadow - Alduras - 30 Jedi Knight - Infinite Empire Brienna - 50 Sith Sorc - The Crucible Pits Kansas University Class of 2013! 2008 National Champions!! 2008 Orange Bowl Champions!!

	Not really any Nebraska hate here.. Just more like dislike for the media who have anointed them 'back' and assume that there is no one in the north that can beat them. Hearing the Neb posters on all the Mizzou boards talk about how they are going to win a national championship this year is just laughable. They were several plays away from being 11-1 and playing in a BCS bowl - I get that - but they were also several plays away from being 6-6. Thats how sports seasons go for all teams! I don't really care about this being their last year in the Big 12, I want them to lose because their fans are obnoxious and the sports media is lazy. I'd feel the same even if Mizzou was going with them to the Big 10. Nebraska fans were always obnoxious but since Mizzou was so bad they never bothered to discuss us. They were too busy poking OU, then Colorado, even K State for a bit.. But since ~2003 they actually view Mizzou as a threat and have been venting their uneasiness towards us. This is both flattering (actually being good enough to stir up anger from the Neb fans) and annoying (we really only have time to argue/hate on Kansas... Mizzou is going to not only win the north this year, but the entire Big 12. Bookmark that!* *Disclaimer: I am free to amend any predictions at any time due to injury to key players... As to Kansas.. Is history still waiting? -----signature----- 61% of all hits on the internet are on sex sites.. .. .... ...... So.. what are you doing here?

	At Kansas history is always waiting for basketball season to start. Refresh my memory though Juzam, whens the last time Mizzou won a BCS Bowl game..........I guess history must still be waiting on that huh? Honestly I think Nebraska has to be the favorites to win the Big 12 north going into the season, but I would not be surprised if the North title comes down to Arrowhead just like it did four years ago. Nebraska could go either way in football, but the same can be said for most of the north; I mean honestly I have very little faith in all the teams from the north. But I will agree Nebraska has the worst fans in the north, I can not stand them either. -----signature----- Basur - 50 Jedi Shadow - Alduras - 30 Jedi Knight - Infinite Empire Brienna - 50 Sith Sorc - The Crucible Pits Kansas University Class of 2013! 2008 National Champions!! 2008 Orange Bowl Champions!!

	Amendial posted: Honestly I think Nebraska has to be the favorites to win the Big 12 north going into the season.. I really wish someone could please explain why that is to me. That is the commonly held belief amongst the media, but they never say why. This is a team that lost probably the best player of the decade in Suh along with 5 other starters off a pretty good defense and as camps open today, they have no idea who their starting QB is going to be this year. My honest guess is that there is just no one else in the north except Mizzou that will contend with them and their game is in Neb this year. Their schedules are really that similar. If schedules really are the deciding factor then they shouldn't be the favorites by much. also, Amendial, make all the BCS comments you want, but Mizzou never made 'History Awaits' their team slogan - printing T shirts and all! Only to crash and burn their last 7 games and not even reach a bowl game! But I can see how you might mistake that for the basketball team's slogan since they often tend to crash and burn in May! Well, in seasons where they aren't on NCAA probation! -----signature----- 61% of all hits on the internet are on sex sites.. .. .... ...... So.. what are you doing here?

	Thats why I think they are the favorites, they play there toughest games at home, which could be the push they need. But as I said, really I could see anyone from the North other than Colorado and Iowa State winning the north. I really do not think any team from the north is going to be all that great this season, but Nebraska might just be the best out of the bunch. It sure is funny hearing a school that is famous for having never played in the final four, laughing at a school who has won five National Championships. Give me a call when Mizzou makes it to 13 final fours and then we can talk. As far as the football season goes last year, yep it was horrible, but I would gladly take a season like that coupled with an orange bowl victory as well as another bowl victory the seasons before. I would ask you Tiger fans how it feels to win a BCS bowl game but you will probably never know. -----signature----- Basur - 50 Jedi Shadow - Alduras - 30 Jedi Knight - Infinite Empire Brienna - 50 Sith Sorc - The Crucible Pits Kansas University Class of 2013! 2008 National Champions!! 2008 Orange Bowl Champions!!

	You might want to stick with 3 NCAA championships when arguing with Mizzou fans. If you actually wish to claim the 2 non-NCAA championships, then you have to admit that Mizzou also has 2 national championships. Stick to the final four smack or at least don't intermix the two. the more you know! -----signature----- 61% of all hits on the internet are on sex sites.. .. .... ......

	Hey I am just going off the number of banners hanging from the rafters in the Phog. If Missouri wants to claim national championships from before the NCAA tournament, they have that right. I will not dispute their claim to pre NCAA tournament championships. In this case does it really matter, I mean either way we still have you beat by Three National Championships and 13 final fours. All I am saying is, if you want to talk about failed tournaments, Missouri is way above Kansas. notice I never stated that Missouri has no National Championships, just simply they have never played in a final four -----signature----- Basur - 50 Jedi Shadow - Alduras - 30 Jedi Knight - Infinite Empire Brienna - 50 Sith Sorc - The Crucible Pits Kansas University Class of 2013! 2008 National Champions!! 2008 Orange Bowl Champions!!

My girlfriends entire family is from there and they're takin me to the Nebraska Texas game in October. Since I dont follow college football AT ALL are there any smart-assey remarks I can throw out to pretend like I have some semblance of knowledge of their way of life?

	Honestly I would inquire about their record prior to the game. This will mean a lot to your sanity when dealing with Nebraska fans. The fan base in general thinks their team walks on water and this is the year they are supposed to be 'back' (aka competing for national championships)... This is being fed by the national media because Nebraska fans are rabid about their team and will buy up anything that deals with football. It is entirely possible that Nebraska is undefeated when Texas comes to town, or they could have a couple of losses. If they are undefeated then feel free to jab about whatever you want (Texas won last years championship game at the last second over Nebraska, Texas chased Nebraska from the Big 12 to the Big 10 cause Nebraska was scared of them, or just say "13-12"). If they have losses then I would tread carefully about your jabs as the entire ego of the fan base will be fragile. If they have lost, then just mention the record, or the names of the teams that beat them.. This should send the die-hard nubbers to suicide watch. Under scenario 1 you will have a good time if Neb wins, and a mediocre time if they lose, and a horrible time if they lose badly. Under scenario 2 you will have a good time if Nebraska wins, or loses closely, and a mediocre time if they lose badly. Always keep in mind that Nebraska fans have nothing else to cheer for so they take their football.. um very seriously. Either way you go, you should be impressed by the stadium and the atmosphere at the game (unless they are getting blown out by Texas, then you will be impressed until halftime). -----signature----- 61% of all hits on the internet are on sex sites.. .. .... ......
