Iowa State sucks, true, but their team and their fans are neither despised nor seen as an embarrassment to the conference. They don't make gay-ass videos with their lame mascot beating up the Nebraska mascot (obsess much?). They generally don't talk crap about a program that far exceeds theirs (much like NU fans - at least on the boards I frequent - don't talk crap about OU or Texas), and only live to see other programs fail, as failure of others is all they have.
In short, they aren't disrespectful assholes, and know their place, and therefore are a non-factor. KSU fans should learn a lesson before popping off about NU, as it just makes them all look silly when the get a bloodied lip by a team and program that has achieved a level of success that they'll never, ever know.
