Even if Coach Hawkins is saying this is "just another game" and totally making every CU fan mad by not approaching this game like Bill McCartney did, we at the Ralphie Report will try and make sure you a) are pumped, even if the players aren't and b) still hate the Huskers. So we like the guys over at Corn Nation, the Nebraska blog on SBNation, but they have quietly ridiculed the Buffs for most of the year. Are they correct in most of the things they say? Yes. I still hate it coming from the Nebraska camp. So in case you are feeling a little down this season and it is somehow impacting your undying hate of every little single thing Nebraska (except for you Buffs fans who live in Nebraska, you're cool), here is some little jabs that have been thrown by Corn Nation. Now don't go over there and flame. That is not cool and we don't condone it, but you are more than welcome to express your feelings here! I hate Nebraska. Ever since I was 10 years old and some bastard Nebraska fan broke my dad's back window and stole a bunch of stuff when we went out there to watch CU play the Fuskers. Well, huck'em all.
- Corn Blight: It's in Boulder! Can the Hawk survive? This season can't get over fast enough for the few Buffs fans that care. Cowboys 42, Buffs 13
- Big 12 Corn Cob of the Week: Colorado: Your best weapon in defeating Iowa State at home? Having the clock run out with Iowa State on your one yard line.
- Colorado: F No offense, no defense. How's that contract extension for Dan Hawkins working out for you?
- Colorado: C- Kudos to Dan Hawkins for finally accepting what the rest of college football knows about your son.
- Corn Blight: Colorado State at Colorado in Denver.
Husker Mike: I have no Hawk love
Corn Blight: This game is interesting because of the high probabiity of riot.
Husker Mike: What will that field look like after being covered for Obama the last week or so.That's half the fun of this game.
Corn Blight: Made even worse because you know there will still be tons of anarchists who have discovered Boulder for the first time. The hippies will be more stoned, the punksters more enthused. Could be wild.
Corn Blight: Colorado 31, CSU 24
Corn Blight: 15 Arrests, 3 people hospitalized.
Husker Mike: Rams 23, Buffies 21, Denver Police 38
Corn Blight: We're assuming that they can scoop that much bullshit out of Denver before the game. Maybe it'll be postponed on account of a flash crap flood - My choice is Cody Hawkins. After yet another horrible start against the #105 defense in college football, your dad had to pull the redshirt off of Tyler Hansen to try and salvage the Buffaloes season. He'll probably be in trouble with your mom for doing it, but he had no choice.
- Dan Hawkins
....whom I think is a good coach, but it's his third year, and Colorado is showing improvement? Where is it? He's in danger of being heated up, and it isn't helping matters that his son is mixed up in all of this. If this isn't a reason for the coaches kid to go somewhere else besides where daddy is coaching what is?

Hard for me to answer this one
because the NU game is still the sporting event of the year for me. If we win it will be huge, I will feel great about it, and going to a bowl game will no doubt help the team get better and help with recruiting. However… it will not make this season a success, not even close. Last year I felt different because the NU win and going to a bowl seemed like a step forward.
(maybe if we smoke NU and then win our bowl game I would feel different, but thats kind of a big if)

Nebraska Fans
I have never personally had problems with Nebraska fans. I have been to games in Lincoln etc. with no trouble (I am 6’4 so that may have something to do with it) and the fans that I have dealt with in Boulder seem fairly decent.
One thing I have noticed is that on all online message boards, their fans seem to be real jackasses. They act like they are god’s gift to heaven and like everyone in the world cares about the state of Nebraska’s program. The fact is outside of that miserable state with no redeeming qualities, people could care less about the Huskers. The fans in Lincoln do a great job of supporting their team, but so do many other cities where there is no other option. CU would have way more fans at every game if they didn’t have CSU, Air Force, the Denver Broncos, the Colorado Rockies, the Colorado Avalanche, DU Hockey, CC Hockey etc…
I hate Nebraska, no other way to say it. I hope we shock them and the stupid spread.

Tough Q
I’m with nebraskasux on this one, I want us to win super bad, I want to go to a bowl, it will make the season of all kinds of injuries fall into a category of ‘not terrible’ for me, and I think if we win you could put the game in there with some of the more unlikely underdog cagey performances against NU, but I still wouldn’t dub it a success. The fact we go to a bowl after all the injuries would be awesome, but success before the season to me would have been showing something more than last year (improvement, , winning record, whatever) and I just haven’t seen it this year. Maybe if we beat NU and win the bowl game I could say success, but not strictly on NU, because if we beat them then get creamed by a mediocre ACC or Big 10 team or something that would not be good.

Won't make the season a success
but will be a step in the right direction. We had too many games the team either should have won or just didn’t show up that I can’t consider this year a success even if we win out. Agree with what has been said above in regards to NU fans, some of the nicest people you will ever meet. That being said I really wish Hawk would embrace this rivalry but can understand why he just wants to see this season end.

Have to beat the cornsuckers
Nothing better than seeing the dissappointment in the eys of cornsucker fans when they get whipped. Why do I hate the cornsuckers, let me explain:
1) The Sal Aunese is dead, go Big Red painted on I-80 on the Colorado/Nebraska border, enuff said for general Cornsucker fan class.
2) The only time that program was relevent in the past 20 years was when they started recruiting criminals becuase Tom Osborne realized he couldn’t compete with Miami, FSU, CU, Oklahoma, and Norte Dame, and when they had the criminals Osborne would cover up and ignore these thugs yet pretend he was some god fearing, awe schucks coach, no your prescious Osborne was just a scum bagging recruiting coward like Switzer, Erickson, Bowden, and that worthless rat Holtz.
3) I understand the passion of the Nebraska fans, hell what else is there to do in that excuse of a state, but when you want to act like Colorado doesn’t matter, is what gripes me, heres a news flash cornsuckers, you need us way more then we need you. If Colorado and Missouri bolted from the Big 12 to the Pac-10 and Big 10 respectivelly, there would be no reason to every watch or go to a Nebraska game. Oklahoma could care less about you and then what do you have, a big rivalry with Kansas, think about that one Cornsuckers.
4) Quit stealing our water, Nebraska would be Wyoming if they didn’t get water from us, nothing but high plains and antelope, so say thank you instead of acting like it is yours. I personnally wish we put up the Big Thompson Dam and divert any water we have left over to Kansas or New Mexico where they would thank us for the water.
5) If I get one more cornsucker telling me they have acedemically a better university, please, just because you can get a degeree in PE from Nebraska and get honors in it, doesn’t make you acedemically better, taking easy classes and getting good grades just means you have collectively lowered your standards, not enrolled smarter students.
SO by good, yes, beat Nebraska and I will forgive this season.

And the
only time your team has been relevent is when you have beaten NU. Not very often either by the way. Its funny listening to you guys ramble on and on about how much you hate us. Most NU fans dont hate CU fans we just find you annoying and irrelevent. Have fun in Lincoln. Go to Sidetracks while you are there you will love it. Great little bar. Corn Blight will have it listed in his “things to do in Lincoln” if you want the address.

oh yeah?? I find you annoying and irrelevent! the only time your team has been relevent is when you have beaten us!!
think about it dude!! and I would only go to your lame bar to take a crap on the floor and then I would get the hell out of your god-forsaken state!

Oh
I would love to be there to see that. Nothing better then to see some ass get his ass kicked. Why all the hostility man??? Oh yeah you hate all Nebraskans. This is probably the biggest reason we dont consider you guys our rival. We had a great rivalry with OU and it was done out of respect not hatred. Maybe if you tried a different approach to the whole rivalry deal it may work out but damaging our vehicles and printing a bunch of hatred on some blog just doesnt do it man. Just makes us shake our heads and mutter “dumbass”.

Ok serious question.
I have been to almost every state in the USA but have never stepped foot in Nebraska, what is Lincoln like?
Buff fans, I know how you feel about it, I want to hear a Husker describe it please.

Corn Blight
went to school there for so long they almost named the place after him. He has a great piece on his blog of where to go and what to do. As for me I love to go to Sidetracks and Mistys. Sidetracks is a great sing-a-long bar where the do old songs and parodies of others. There is a small band that plays and the whole place sings along. Mistys is just your regular bar.

Nebraska? academics? Reminds me of the N is for Knowledge joke.....
by NYCskibum on Nov 24, 2008 4:00 PM MST reply actions 0 recs
no one actually thinks NU has better academics
it’s just they’re always bragging about the huge number of academic all-americans they have who have joke majors and are treated like gods by the faculty. Maybe I’m naive, but I never really noticed any special treatment for athletes at CU (in fact it seems most faculty kind of resent athletics) and there really aren’t any super-easy majors at CU (easy, but not jock super-easy).
I think I posted this link before, but as I recently discovered it I’ll do it again as this site has plenty of venomous anti-husker stuff to get us fired up for this week: http://ajthoughts.blogspot.com/

Great article
I second many of those thoughts, one other thing cornsuckers, I derided your program for years by scheduling non-conference cream puffs, then you finally grew some nades and actually scheduled the likes of USC and got your bell rung, now it looks like the corn will go back to the Osborne approach and schedule SW Missouri States and such so they can have a winnning record, yes I know CU has scheduled some “cream puffs” but we also schedule heavy hitters year in and year out like FSU, WVU, Miami, Michigan, and are willing to travel. You know cornsuckers they have things called airplanes so you can get off your John Deere tractor and go fly out of that wasteland of a state to actually see a good game, but knowing the Cornsucker nation, they have no stomach for having an early season loss and I am sure they won’t leave that state unless they have to.
Man I hate the cornsuckers, water stealers!

Actually, I have had many ignorant Nebraska and Texas fans tell me Nebraska is better acedemically than CU
When I actually point out you have to attend class and get real grades at CU they get mad.

If only we could offer ...
Banjo class at Nebraska:
http://conted.colorado.edu/course-index/program/AM/banjo/1297/applied-music/?department_id=0
The pathetic attempt by most of CO, this site included, to induce such a “hated” rivalry between our teams and states makes me weep tears of CO water for you. If CO bolted for the Pac-10, the only thing that would happen would be for Washington and Washington State to be excited to have someone worse than them in the conference. The Good luck on Friday!

Oh if only...
the university of Colorado offered a class in reading comprehension you may have a shot at running a successful blog, however, they don’t. As I stated, I was commenting on the pathetic “attempt” to create a rivalry, the fact of the matter is we don’t care about your program, you are insignificant, outside of one year you have always been insignificant, and the truth of the matter is you will always be insignificant. Go hang your hat on one of your other impressive schools or professional sports teams because, well, lets face it, the buffs will never be seen as a college football powerhouse.

oh man, you got us there
I think NU needs to start teaching a class on sarcasam because you definitely are having some “comprehension” issues there yourself.
Get off your high horse you jackass, Nebraska hasn’t been nationally siginificant since 2001 and that was only because of the outcry after you guys snuck into the national championship game after getting your salad tossed by CU and not even winning your division. Have fun living in the past, because I hate to tell you but NU will never be seen as a college football powerhouse again.
by nebraskasux on Nov 26, 2008 6:46 PM MST up reply actions 0 recs
And you
were last nationally signigicant WHEN?? about 89 or so? Oh yeah there was the whole rape charge investigation a few years ago that made you that way. But on the field???
You are the only one on a high horse here pal and that is including the rest of the Buff fans on here.
