Those No Longer With Us

Look, I know not having a game last Saturday makes for a stretch of diminished conversation content, but jumping Johnny the Jet on a pogo stick...I don't check in for a few days and we're back on Bo 408 Pelini? All because Hot Carl took a beat down from someone other than Melvin Gordon?

Everyone here should get commemorative special huskerboard branded plungers, cause we love bringing up old sh!t so much. 

I'm not Bob Diaco, and I approve this message

We can switch to talking about Diaco! Mitch Sherman ($$) pointed this out in an article:

Nebraska aims against Indiana to become the first team since 2012 Notre Dame to hold its first seven opponents without a rushing touchdown.


Anyone remember who coordinated that 2012 ND defense?

 
Dear Lord, just let him hold onto the ball and throw it to the right team. Amen.

Wish him the best, but I am not holding my breath.
Seems very reasonable, but I don't have high hopes. Too bad Leavitt is injured, he has been playing pretty well. I imagine that it will be a heavy dose of Scattebo, but that's been the game plan every week.

 
My god, we are the lamest fan base.

We make up rumors about our coaches when we hate them.  

Then when they do something nice, we tear it the f#&% down.

And then we think the coaches should be giving us fans HJ's and french kissing us.


No we aren't.

Some rumors are true/Hate is strong word/Nebraska fans are far from alone

Don't do that either, you totally missed the point.

Nope. 

 
Do you think the Athletic Department launches and budgets a publicity campaign without the approval of the Athletic Director? 
I don't consider that support in the same way ADs before and since supported their coaches, so it could just be a matter of a difference of opinion. Doesn't really matter now as we chose the red pill and here we are, hoping to finish with a winning record and a bowl game. 

 
Sure we got beat 48-17, 70-31, and 59-24 against Wisconsin, but let's not forget about these other gems in in back half of Bo's tenure

losing by 21 vs an 8-5 Iowa team in Lincoln

losing by 20 vs UCLA in Lincoln while being outscored 31-0 in the 2nd half

losing by 25 at Ohio St (which doesn't terrible bad until you see that OSU was a 4.5 point favorite)

losing by 6 at UCLA (which doesn't sound bad until you see that we gave up 650 yards, the 2nd most ever given up by a Nebraska defense)

losing by 28 at Michigan (Michigan was a 2.5 point favorite)


Look how far we've come.

 
Look how far we've come.
To be fair, I believe we squeaked out our only victory against Wisconsin in the regular season before pooping down our leg in the champ game that same year. BUt being in the IU record book as the opponent in the first ever game they scored 50+ and they came 1 point away from BEATING US by 50 is not ok. They have been in the Big ten since 1899. This is the first time they hung 50 on anyone. Coping is one thing, but this transcends any sense of coping ability I have. Stuff needs to change.
