I posted a ku.edu link why no smart ass comment about that source?

Still looking for the section on UK...

We aren't all required to feel exactly the same about this.

Sure, we can argue about which one is bigger. But if you say UK is not a rival, the program and staff would absolutely disagree with you.

A rival.

Unc duke Gonzaga UK Nova Baylor half the big 12 teams Mich St etc etc etc...dozens of teams fit that criteria.

Rivalry means something different.

Self played Cal in two National Championships.
A rivalry is centered on individual coaches and the few games against each other in the last 15 years not the programs 100 year old history.

My gosh. Self has called it a "rivalry game," but now we're really getting into semantics to make some point.

Didn't you used to be a Kentucky fan? Is that where all this is coming from?

I can't wait to see who our rivals are in 3 years when those matchups are outside the window of relevancy! Exciting times to be a jayhawk!

That's what college sports are all about! That's what rivalries are about.

You think the yankees and red sox fans only talk shit to each other when both are world champ contenders?

Bears Packers only hate each other when both are good?

Duke UNC when both final 4 contenders?

Cardinals Cubs?

Nope. Kansas fan all my life. Raised in a family of Jayhawks (dad raised in Kansas City Kansas, KU alum, aunt KU alum, uncle KU alum).

But to play along....lets say hypothetically i decided to be a kentucky fan when i was a child....my dad would have kicked me out of the house and disowned me....now lets say hypothetically i decided to be a Mizzou fan when i was a child...my dad would have taken me out back and killed me.

See the difference?

Washburn rivalry dates back to 1906. Mizzou only 1907. Need a Washburn thread.
