I imagine it would be the reverse in football for now.
All it does is give the fanbase someone to hate. It does nothing for the product on the field or court.

Meh. I miss it and I feel a lot of the campus does too. Sometimes I feel sports should just be about the rivalries over the marketing, and plus, you can't tell me that we're somehow benefitting more from playing Towson and Louisiana Tech in AFH than we would be by playing Mizzou.
Pinkel has said he'd schedule us again in football in a heartbeat. Some will disagree, but I feel there would be reciprocated benefits to both programs if we scheduled the games in both football and basketball. Plus, c'mon, there are few rivalries that can match the historical hatred between the sports teams and the communities that surround our programs.
