Mrs. Steelman

Such a great rivalry!

Jake Van Lent

Good potential rival. Many families, like mine, exist on both sides of this game. You can get together for Thanksgiving, talk some smack, and attend a road game, all in the same weekend!

Jim Jarvis

Natural rival being next door.Usually good and division will be at stake many years

Angie Greer

Border state rivalry is just fun!

Robert Lloyd

It is already a budding tradition and they are a border state. Besides, we just don't like them! <g>

Michael McKain

Next door, so seems the natural rival.

jerry williams

They are right next door.

Valerie Gilmore

there's just a certain amount of venom in this game, border schools, some competed against one another in years past, just a good family brew ha over a ditch bird leg.....

Jeff Wagner

The tradition can continue to build. Both schools are easy to get to, as opposed to Wisconsin or Minnesota. The honoring of a hero is nice, but do away with it as a trophy. Something organic.

Jeff Wagner

I ran out of space. We need a non-sponsored trophy!.. The sponsorship of any trophy makes it seem less traditional. What happens when HyVee backs out? The "Hustler Club Heroes Trophy"?

Jeff Wagner

The Broken Chair is a great example. If I played, that would be what I would like to play for.

Jeff Browne

Who else wears black? Maybe Purdue would work as well. (Smiley-face emoji goes here.)

Wisconsin would be my top choice but if not them then Iowa for sure.

Trevor Pinegar

Iowa has too many other traditional rivalries. Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa State, etc. NU should play Penn State every year on black Friday.

Wade Williams

Iowa does not, never has and never will do anything for me. I think it has been kind of pointless to even continue playing a game on that Friday once the OU and subsequently CU games ceased.

William R. Mangiameli

Wisconsin is and will be our biggest adversary in the B1G

Danny Baker

I would like Wisconsin also, a much better rival.

Elbert C Phillips

Wisconsin is the team for us to beat. Iowa is average and at times slightly better than average at best. We wanted to beat Oklahoma because they was good, same with Wisconsin. Iowa is blah!!

Patrick Keefe

I believe that in a few years Wisconsin will be our new Oklahoma and I would rather play them every black Friday to see who wins the west.

Joel Hug

While I would accept this, I still think Colorado is the perfect Black Friday opponent.

Jeff Barker

Oklahoma should be our permanent Black Friday or Thanksgiving Day game. One or the other but ONLY Oklahoma.

Joe

I would enjoy Wisconsin as that will likely decide the division most years

Katie Hobson

Needs To Be Against The Best.

Richard Stevens

I would prefer either Wisconsin or Penn St over Iowa!

Scott Vadnais

I wish it were Oklahoma, but I'm old school. If not Sooners, then Wisconsin.

Daniel Revas

Wisconsin is the true obstacle in the way of a title.

Rob Kroll

If you can't bring back OU then Wisconsin! That game needs to mean something, Iowa means nothing!

Jess Hansen

Iowa isn't a rival and never will be, because they have NEVER beaten us in a meaningful game. Sign me up for Wisconsin or Penn State.

Nathan Birr

Oklahoma is my top choice. That failing, Iowa makes the most sense.

Rik Hale

I would like a rotation with Oklahoma, Iowa and another strong rival.

Anthony Asta

wisconsin then iowa

Chris Murphy

Would like to see Wisconsin

Larry Solfermoser

Many teams I would rather see like Wisconsin , Michigan State. Iowa has no class

Johnny Joyce

Wisconsin would be my 1st choice but Iowa would be 2nd choice.

Greg Conradt

Wisconsin seems like our prey. They are the Alpha we want to replace!

Michael Bonsall

I would rather have Wisconsin. I believe we have more in common with them.

Johnny Key

Wisconsin gets my vote

Don Scott

Wisconsin!

Nehemia Volquardsen

Wisconsin... Big Red vs. The Other Big Red plus it will probably have B1G West implications most years

the big programs will thrive while the rest survive, with no limit its all about Money then

Steve Walker

If open, rich schools like Ohio State and Texas would have 300 players on their rooster, which would impact the recruit pool. Of course those who don't play would end up in transfer portal. The scholarship limits helps all schools access to good players. Even with NIL, the scholarship limit helps

Seems fair for the number of kids that actually play in games.

Most players don't get to go pro. As a former college walkon, being an athlete and having the $ to pay for college and other things is a huge burden. There is too much as a full time student and athlete to work as well. Opening more scholarships give more kids as much opportunity as possible.

Baseball, hotdogs, popcorn, pretzels 🍺 beer

Clark Huenink

Fan friendly environment.

Scott Ferguson

All things in moderation. A cold beer and a hotdog are part of baseball fandom. And yes, revenue.

Kent Haynes

It's everywhere else, plus the revenue

I don't like what alcohol does to Husker fans.

Ralph J. Williams

Outcome is only negative.

Linda Ogren

NOT GOING TO ATTEND ANYMORE, YOU ARE ASKING FOR BIG TROUBLE

Roy VanPelt

Alcohol will ruin the family environment. I love my Huskers, but may have to give up our season tickets if they ever start selling beer at Memorial Stadium.

James Wyatt

People sometimes are not responsible enough and over drink then get into a vehicle!

Roy Katskee

Underage college students have enough access to beer. Absolutely no need for it.
