Poll: Our Top Rivalry
« on: March 31, 2017, 01:53:52 PM »
A theoretical poll in the event Crean talks his way into the Georgetown job. Will Georgetown become our top rivalry. I think of all the teams in the Big East it is the one generally liked least by most MU fans. Yes and I know Crean sucks and ND sucks.

Before every Georgetown game this board will have posts titled:
MUST WIN GAME!!

(And wades will always have the 5th post that says "next game is the most important")

Focus on this one game. We're fans and can't afford to look past a single game.

We don't have a rival.   Sort of an independent in an East Coast league, not a big problem, who needs a rival, it is what it is.

Providence mentioned but Notre Dame not? Someone's only been watching Marquette about 5 minutes...

Syracuse, West-by-God, Cincinnati, Louisville, Pitt, back in the day, Loyola, DePaul, St. Louis, and Detroit.  Rivalries take decades to form.  Knocking someone out of the tournament is a good place to start looking.
They try and make Seton Hall and St. Johns rivals, but it will never happen.  Rival Saturday, please.

Providence is a conference opponent.   Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Louisville are rivals.

Striving to reach Ed Cooley level in the eyes of the committee makes us rivals.

No kidding.  When did Providence become a rival?  Don't we have like .667 winning % against them?  Only the nail thinks the hammer is its rival.
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.

Notre Dame is a one way rival, they don't give a rat's ass about us.  Nix that idea
Loserville is history.  Got to play someone on a regular basis to be a rival.
No one but the cheds care about Wisconsin.  When you mention UW to my kids think of Washington, as they should.
Georgetown is an arrogant dumpster fire. 

The providence games have acquired an edge and are certainly starting to feel like rivalry games.  I voted for the Friars and hope that at some point in time it becomes a true rivalry.

I think a lot of the FIbs would rate UW as a top rivalry as well. In fact if you look on a lot of lists it's on a lot of the most underrated or best rivalries in college basketball.

ND used to care, they just act like they don't. I was at the game there in 2011 and it was completely packed. Plus a lot of people have friends or family that went there which makes grounds for a rivalry not to mention the history against them.

I am the voice of reason.  Anyone who thinks that ND is a rival in 2017 is crazy.  That rivalry is dead.  So is Louisville.  I'll give you Wisconsin for the BMI challenged subset of our fan base.  Give me Providence.

PC is not a rival. They had never even beaten MU at MU EVER until this year.

Dead or on pause?

It's only been three years. I refuse to believe the ND rivalry is completely dead forever.

Kinda feels like it's dead. Didn't really feel that much like a rivalry when we were both in the Big East, in my opinion

I really wish that Wojo and Brey would kick their Duke code of honor to the curb.  I really would like to see an annual ND-MU game at the United Center.

I don't think it's a Wojo/Brey thing. From hints on the board, I think it's strictly a Brey thing. Scholl has mentioned having talks and it seems like it's ND saying no.
