purdue has a built-in advantage of no mens soccer or womens water polo team.  they'd get demolished annually in those events.  perhaps womens rowing too as that program is on the rise.  no way should we ever lose this thing anyway.  upsets in track & field and wrestling let us down last year.

 

I've always thought it was unfortunate notre dame didn't develop into our main rival.  their athletics dept is much more comparable to ours in terms of historical and recent national success in a variety of sports.  theirs is more potent these days, though we're more decorated.  purdue isn't nationally relevant and I think that anchors us to an extent.  a missed grand opportunity as indiana-notre dame could've been up there with the premiere in-state rivalries of unc-duke, syracuse-gtown, alabama-auburn, usc-ucla-cali-stanford, virginia-virginia tech, etc.

bump.  need to win only 3 of the 7 remaining competitions to win the cup.

 

[brtjohns 711]

we win just one of the remaining four events, we re-take the cup (that nobody truly cares about).

Who's gonna start the rivalry then? Maybe the Crossroads will get chippy this year and that'll lead to something. Gosh I hope so.
