(quoted from Miami thread)

I guess what I'm really asking... is there any realization in Lincoln, from coaching staff and/or fans - but especially coaching staff, that Wisconsin has been destroying you since joining the conference? Wisconsin seems to approach those games with a different level of intensity than Nebraska? I mean Abdullah vs. Gordon was supposed to be a great game and Gordon just went beast mode and set records...

That's not a "our gameplan could be better" thing. That's a John Cooper "we're not up for this game like they are" thing.
I know OU is your traditional rival... but right now, somebody has to start looking at Wisconsin as a rival. Minnesota and Iowa haven't consistently challenged them ... I guess they saw a new big-name program come on and decided to set the tone and bully you guys... and they're doing it. With ease.

Prepare for a long response, LOL

You kidding me? After getting ass pounded around here for years now by Bucky, most logical fans around here have Bucky squarely in their crosshairs. There's some unrealistic blue hairs that hate Iowa that still think they're the rival just because they play us the week of Thanksgiving.

I'd love to play Bucky in that game instead. And shove a big ass dildo shaped turkey leg up their cheese holes.

Ameer was hurt in the game you're talking about, but it wouldn't have mattered. You could have had Dickerson, Sweetness, and Eddie George in the backfield that day. Mofos couldn't tackle for shit (cept poor Nate Gerry, who was busy trying to run down Gordon all day from behind).

OU hasn't been a rival since TexPN drove the Brinks truck up to the Big 12 offices and unloaded. People around here hate TexPN with that passion.
I think some older blue hairs are still sentimental about Barry being the AD up there, but not this fan. I'd drive a big ass fondue truck up there and melt all their asses.

See, you have to understand how this goes around here....Let me reference "The Color Purple." If you've never seen it, spoilers.

So, there's a scene in the movie where Ceilie (Main character) stands up to her long time forced, abused marriage husband, Albert ("Mister"). As she prepares to leave, she puts a hex on him, cursing him (puts up 3 fingers) by saying, "Until you do right by me, everything you do is gonna fail."

Exhibit A:


So, fans around here don't see things as I do. I look at Ceilie as Frank Solich.

Stay with me...

I think that he needed to make changes. Play calling was getting stagnated. The year prior, we had gone 7-7. The year prior to that, 62-36 in Boulder, then an ass pounding in the National Championship game.

New AD comes in. I won't say his name...we don't say his name around here. Fires Solich after winning his 9th game. There were a list of names on this guy's list (http://articles.chicagotribune.com/...6_1_nebraska-jerseys-cornhuskers-frank-solich). One name in particular would interest you in that article. But because the AD fired a well respected, hand picked successor to a legendary coach (who had won a conference title and played for a national championship in his tenure), he scared everybody away. And I mean, EVERYBODY.

Hires "the dumbest coach in America" from Oakland after they fired him. I'll call him "He who walks beyond the rows."

He comes in, changes the culture, runs old players and coaches off. Even insults the hall of fame coaching legend: http://www.espn.com/college-football/news/story?id=3069944. There's reports that he called the legendary coach "The crusty old bastard."

Now "He who walks beyond the rows" could recruit as a coach. He recruited and signed one of the greatest linemen in the history of college football in Ndamukong Suh. Then gets fired because he kept one of the WORST defensive coordinators in history around, and just couldn't coach. "He who walks beyond the rows" is fired by the same crusty old bastard he insulted, along with the AD.

Doc Tom hires the guy who many wanted around here for a very long time, former Buckeye captain Bo. Bo does well, wins 9 each season here.

Legendary coach retires to go pheasant and turkey hunting for the rest of his days, thinks it's all good under Bo. Get a new AD, one Bo calls a "Ginger c**t." But under Bo's tenure, Husker football is known for two things....

Getting ass handed to us by tougher opponents, and the outbursts on the sidelines.

Bo pisses all over fans and everybody. Had to "fire" his brother because it's alleged that Carl is a little friendly with powdery white substances around his nasal passages. Then Gordon puts four bills up, and the end was near. Bo gets canned after the Iowa game (9th win, mind you). Basically DARES the AD to fire him. So, that Sunday morning, about 9, he does.

Bo goes to Lincoln Southwest HS, meets with players. Says it's a confidential meeting. Yeah, not in the 21st century, Bo. Meeting is recorded, Bo ends up at Youngstown with the Sweater Vest.

Ginger C**t hires Mr. Rodgers to be the football coach. Folks are like, WHAT IN THE EVER LIVING F***?!?

You see what happened there.

Now, there's a new AD after the Ginger C**t was fired. A little bit of trivia - Ginger C**t's son was popped for child porn in Lincoln AFTER he was fired.

In comes Bill Moos. This is the guy who hired the Paloose Pirate at Washington State. Guy isn't scared to throw some cash at the situation, and isn't scared to make a splash hire. Goes under cover of darkness in an SR-71 and meets with Frosty. Few weeks later, McPornstashe (formally Brett McMurphy when he was actually a reporter), announces that Frosty takes the job here, MINUTES prior to winning a conference championship.

First thing Frosty does after getting here - gets with Doc Tom and says, "we gotta make this shit right."

Frank Solich will receive a legacy award in January, and both Doc Tom and Frosty will be on hand.

https://journalstar.com/sports/husk...cle_6fae1d8f-2654-5ead-84b5-1264bc247285.html

So, hopefully this shit comes full circle. Because when Mister finally did right by Miss Ceilie….his life got 100% better.

[Big12 Troll] I did read all that. You left out the detail where a Callahan team gave up 76 points to a Kansas football team. The average score in Kansas-Nebraska games from 1971 to 2000 was 47-7, and he gives up 76 points in 2007. [/Big 12 Troll]

Oh, I ain't forgot all that, man. Or the ass pounding that Paloose Pirate gave us (70-10).

The ONLY thing that "He who walks beyond the rows" did that I liked?

He was 3-1 against K-State, and in the last year, he beat the shit outta them 73-31.

I asked for it... though it doesn't really answer whether Frost and staff have come around to B1G rivalries and identifying Wisconsin as "the enemy". I know the CU "rivalry" was always one-sided, but that's what I remember from the mid-90s. Denver hated her 2 eastern neighbors -- Nebraska and the Chiefs. I don't know if that hate was reciprocated as Nebraska was dominant and CU's relevance was short-lived ... but Scott Frost isn't playing CU (or OU) anymore.
(For the record, I'm from Cleveland - so beyond Stewart->Westbrook hail mary, I didn't care ... and fuck Elway with his shitty dealerships.)

The players at least seem to be figuring it out.

Really would have loved to see what Bo Rein could have done there. Will go to my grave believing he would have been LSUs Woody Hayes, or a 1980s version of Urban Meyer. He was an incredible, innovative coach and motivator.

The head coach, offensive line coach, running backs coach, linebackers coach, and the strength and conditioning coach all played at Nebraska. Yeah, I think they have their eyes set on Bucky...

Down to one scholarship quarterback. Guess the guy whom lost the starter battle just straight withdrew and ghosted.

(Per the inter web)

There were only 2 scholarship QBs to begin with because Noah Vedral is ineligible to play this year after transferring from UCF.

But....this:

"It was close," Frost said Monday. "We picked the guy that we felt would give us the best chance to win. It didn't matter who we picked, we were going to be a playing a quarterback who hadn't taken a live football snap in two years."

Also...last time Frost started a freshman at QB...well, this is year two:



If we can get that kind of rate of return from our freshman QB in year two, I'm taking the growing pains.

Mother Nature delays Scott Frost’s coaching debut at Nebraska

gettyimages-1026043498.jpg


The Cornhusker State was more than ready for a prodigal son’s gameday return to Lincoln. Mother Nature, however, had other plans.

As scheduled, Nebraska kicked off its season opener against Akron in Lincoln at shortly after 8 p.m. ET. That opening kickoff, as it turned out, was literally the only play of the game as, after Nebraska took the touchback, play was halted because of lightning strikes in the area.




After a nearly three-hour delay, and as even more severe weather moved in, it was confirmed that the Cornhuskers’ season opener would not be played as scheduled. In fact, it appears it won’t be played at all.

Nebraska’s game with Akron has been cancelled and the Huskers will open the 2018 [season] against Colorado next Saturday at 2:30 p.m. CT. Any adjustments to the 2018 football schedule will be announced at a later date. Ticket holders are encouraged to hold on to their tickets from tonight’s game.
