Remember when we used to beat Illinois?

Remember when we used to cream other teams to remind them they didn't belong on the field???? Can anyone remember when the tide started to change. Where we got worse and other teams like Illinois or Minnesota got better or even before that where we started to struggle against lesser talented teams?

Yup 62-36. It was such a shame I remember being so sad bc that actually felt like Nebraska had no fight in them that day and I truly understand what other teams felt like when Nebraska did that to them and they had no chance to win.  Since that time its been really a struggle to actually dominate lesser talented teams on a consistent basis. Maybe the lesser teams believe this quote "it's not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog." No teams are so called intimidated by Nebraska or their 90k fans. Nebraska used to be the hunters they have to get back to that mentality instead of feeling like prey.

yeah, that was a tough day. But it was not unlike a few pre-championship Tom Osborne seasons where hopes were high before getting pasted at the end by Oklahoma and our Bowl Opponent. Some of those Oklahoma games were stunningly lifeless performances. One game we never snapped the ball in Oklahoma territory. And yeah, some folks wanted Osborne fired.
