ISU holds a special place with most Husker fans because we saw ISU as one of NU's baby brothers. Like all little brothers ISU was a real pain in the butt sometimes. However mostly pretty good guys.

I always rooted for you guys except when you played NU and that won't change going forward. Unfortunately NU wasn't strong enough to take care of you guys a little better, make sure you guys get to schedule the Texas teams to visit Ames in November a few times. Let them experience playing in JackTrice in windy November. It's quite the battle.

Gonna miss you Clones.

If ISU is NU's little brother then NU is Bevo's turd.

It wasn't lost on Lincoln last week when Nebraska became the first school stripped of its membership in the prestigious, research-based 62-school Association of American Universities, a position it had held since 1909, and that the AAU review committee was chaired by Larry Faulkner. And that the current AAU president is Bob Berdahl.

Both are former University of Texas presidents.

That raised eyebrows, but Nebraska athletic director Tom Osborne isn't pointing fingers.

"I don't think that's had any legs as far as we're concerned," he said. "Harvey Perlman (Nebraska's chancellor) is more plugged in than I am, and he didn't feel it was any Big 12 or University of Texas move to oust us. It (losing the status) does hurt, though. It was sort of a blow to our perception and pride."

Nebraska, which had been a member for more than 100 years, lost its good standing in part because agricultural research grants aren't counted among the criteria for admission.

The AAU was founded in 1900 and includes 60 of the top research institutions in the country, as well as two in Canada. Every Big Ten school is a member. In the Big 12, Texas, Texas A&M, Kansas, Missouri and Iowa State are in.

So you're saying Nebraska is worse than Canada?

Yeah, Canada has oil and excellent fishing. More than I can say about Nebraska.

Think we've played you more then Iowa has anyways. My strength comment was regarding that if NU had enough power, like Texas, we coulda pulled you guys along to the Big 10 like Texas tried pulling with the Pac 10. Did Iowa even attempt to lobby for ISU? No.

For the longest time I didn't even know there was another college team in the state of Iowa until the internet hit. Thought there was only ISU and that was it.

The 8 turnover game was actually a pretty entertaining game. Cagey Clones.

Wish I woulda found out about this site 7 years ago as I thought all the Clones fansites were your rivals or scouts sites (which are dead). I'll stick around to check in on you guys from time to time.

Let me guess you are some dude in Des Moines in some basement that has no association to Nebraska at all?

+1 to you!

to OP - Seriously I hate Iowa and the Big 10 worse then Nebraska. Good luck to you, and kick the crap out of them!

Man there's a lot of NU hate on here, wasn't expecting that kind of feedback considering this is the first time I've seen this board and posted here. Never knew you clones had this in you. Wow.

Good luck clones and I'll be on my way.

What did you really expect when you start off your posting here calling ISU your little brother, Dumb***?

Good work everybody.

Seriously, when was the last time that calling someone your little brother (in a similar context) went over well? It's a demeaning label, and therefore you are going to p*ss people off when you use that label to refer to them.

Add to that the fact this your OP was your first post on the site, and it's blatantly obvious that you are little more than a troll.

When you have to go on a message board and call another fan base your little brother... well to put it nicely, its apparent that somebody is desperately overcompensating for something very, very small....

Take your sub-par academics and sub-par athletic facilities, as well as your dry tailgating and get outta here!

I'm not sure if he was trying to be a troll. Nebraska fans's heads are so far up their *** that they don't realize when they're being condescending *** holes.
