Which Nebraska needed and was able to attract, sometimes the big motivator is playing against the in-state school. I think for most of them, it's either a road less travelled thing, or else they have some sort of chip on their shoulder if they think they weren't given a fair chance by the in-state school. For example, it's probably easier to get a would-be Texas recruit fired up at the opportunity to face Texas or Oklahoma than it is to get that same recruit fired up to play Ohio State or Michigan.
