All of this purple and orange gear has just been accumulating in my house for the past couple years. Its gonna be great to wear it out. CANT WAIT!!!!!!
They're bad. Whats your point?
Scheduling + nobody cares if the two teams play
Well, I remember reading a long thread, here or on Scout, that explained the history of the two schools football relationship. It was fascinating, there was a lot of bad blood I think, from something that happened before WWII. I think there was a hiatus for over a decade or. more..I just don't remember and I was hoping one of the lurkers knew the whole saga. I'm not referring to the annomolies produced by the divisional schedules.
anyone?
thaks for your reply vos. You're on to it. maybe I'll do some research over the winter and post an essay, which will be promptly hijacked by other posters (who are a lot like me).

This explains it.
So, i think there is a story to this. Does anyone know why Iowa has played illinois so infrequently - even before the divisions were formed?
