I have a buddy who is a Wisconsin fan. He’s always telling me we can’t compete in the B1G. I can’t help but laugh. Every time I tell him the following:
1. Alvarez played at NU. He built Wisconsin’s program after that of NU’s. Wisconsin has kept that culture, Nebraska went away from it in 2004.
2. This year’s 150 lists have been a good reminder of what we’re trying to build again:
Nebraska teams named #1 and #4 all time. They had 6 teams named in the top 50 greatest of all time. The ENTIRE B1G has 6 teams named in the top 50.
