Since 2014, we—the students and professors of the Know Rivalry Project—have been answering this question for professional sports with the help of message board members. Now we are expanding our research to the Horizon League. Please help us ensure that Milwaukee is included by taking 9 minutes to complete our updated survey:
Our previous results have been featured in numerous sports media outlets, as well as the Wall Street Journal and New York Times. You can view those results, links to media coverage, and learn more about us at our KnowRivalry.com website.
Thank you for helping us to include Milwaukee by participating and please share this with any other fans that may also help.

Yeah, it’s Green Bay now. There was a time UIC was up there, but that was back in the Bruce/Jimmy rivalry. Now there isn’t really any other legit choice but Green Bay.

From what I have seen of Sundance Wicks since he was brought on board, he is going to add a lot of juice and respectability to the program. I am guessing GB fans will love him and Milwaukee fans will hate him. That, my friends, would spark what has become a relatively dormant rivalry. It would be good for Milwaukee's program and all of the Horizon League.

I would like to see us play UIC again. Those were fun games in an intense rivalry and drew crowds. Loyola would look great on the schedule too.

The league views Green Bay and Milwaukee as rivals. If so, can the dates be better when they play. Playing at GB in December on a weeknight and hosting Green Bay on a Monday is plain silly.
