Who cares? this isn't even a rivalry anymore. ISU Blows!. Until ISU can get their crap in a pile why worry about them? I think WSU should focus more on building a rivalry with SUU, at least they have a good team. :twocents:
Weber State has sucked before too, even to the point where the School wanted to drop the program. It was a phase, phases eventually pass, our 2008 Big Sky Championship was the first one in 40 years. We cant exactly crucify other teams for sucking, we have been there done that.
Kramer is one of those guys that could bring ISU back up to snuff, he has the record to prove it. it might not happen immediatley, but eventually ISU will be good again. You say that Weber should be more focused on getting a rivalry started with SUU, but Weber leads that series 14-3, and the 2 teams havent played in 5 years, not sure that makes it so much better than the ISU rivalry.
Now, for the whole its not a rivalry anymore, which games in both Football and Basketball does Weber usually get its highest attendance figures? Idaho State.
ISU is our biggest rival, but we can all feel a growing rivalry with UNC and a rivalry with SUU will eventually come, but at this point its ISU and I would love to see this rivalry get a name and traveling trophy. Montana and Montana State's football record vs each other is lopsided in UM's favor, but each year the game both teams fans look forward to the most is The Brawl of the Wild. Its that same way for the WSU/ISU rivalry, WSU has won what like 8 in a row or something? but its still a heated rivalry that both fan bases get up for.
I am all for getting the "Railroad Rumble" Started.
