The year was 2004. Nebraska traveled to Oklahoma and was drilled by the Sooners, 30-3. About everything that could go wrong did. Cornhusker offensive lineman Darren DeLone was charged with aggravated assault and battery for a pregame incident involving a member of the OU RufNeks (DeLone was later acquitted of the charges) and afterward first-year coach Bill Callahan called Sooner fans "f---ing hillbillies." Of course, this stirred up the Oklahoma faithful and our man Siouxner, who is known around these parts for his nifty Photoshop job of Adrian Peterson, went to work. He produced this fine piece of work that only increased the bitterness between the fans. Now you understand why we are looking forward to Saturday, when the Big 12 rivals meet again in the conference championship game.

Good stuff.
No one seems to want to address the substance of Callahan's remarks. Are Oklahoma fans, in fact, a bunch of fucking hillbillies?
As a Nebraska native and alum the first thing I thought of when I hear he'd said that was..... if he thinks that of Okies, what's he think of us?
There aren't enough hills in Oklahoma for them to be hillbillies....
Colorado, on the other hand... well....
