our new rival will be ohio state as soon as we put a football team together
Annual would be too big a commitment, but it would be cool if they could do something with regularity to update the tradtion, acknowledge that when Nebraska is good again that there are two storied programs in the great plains, but do something that isn't already out there?
What about scheduling alternate home and away games but skipping every other year? Or have a game every three years? For example, 2025 its at OU, 2027 at NU, 2029 at OU, etc. That would let it become regular, and a tradition, but special in its own way because it would be unique.
Every player would get to play them at least twice. If you lost, you'd have to wait 2 years to get another shot at them, which would make it even more meaningful. And only every four years would it be at the same stadium, which would make the atmosphere even more electric.

Official name: "The Sooner State". A few people in Okieland was ashamed.
BTW, I can't stand Boomer Sooner fight song every fricking play ! Actually fight song was stolen (Yale). Typical. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boola_Boola

We've got a home and home scheduled with them in '21 and '22.
I think @huskernut had a pretty good idea playing them every other year.

You do remember they opted out of it dont you? I say screw um. They have to earn back the respect for the rivalry.
I like the idea, but I wonder how easy it would be to schedule skip year home and away series with other big name programs in the off years?
I think it was Cally when he dropped the F-Bomb Hillbillies on them.
If they want to play Nebraska annually, they can always petition to join the B1G. OU and Whorn would make nice additions to the Big Ten West. Shove Purdue back to the other side of the conference.
Good point. If that's a big issue I suppose it wouldn't be practical. Not being an AD I can't say. I'm not sure I see the necessity of home and homes being back to back generally, but maybe for one off series they are more interesting, because you get to play them immediately after.
Or maybe we could do the same thing with CU or Missouri on the off years?
Talk about holding on to a grudge
CU and MU in off years would mean no other big cross regional games.

There's a small subset of people still fighting the civil war. Now that's holding a grudge.

Having lived in Louisiana during my high school years, I recall them referring to it as “the war of northern aggression”.
