****** What Did We Learn - Hawkeye Edition ******

[admo]

That you can never count on f'ing Iowa to do anything right.

YOU HAD ONE JOB.

Oh well.

GO HUSKERS!!!!!!

 

[Branno]

This game probably saved bo's job because the kids handled adversity. Clearly coaching genius right there.

Please let Bo be gone

So when the players play poorly, it's the coach that is to blame. When they play well, and come behind its the kids saving the coaches job.

Shouldn't the coach get credit for getting the players to adjust and play better? No, because that doesn't fit into the Bo sucks narrative.

We are stuck in football purgatory. That's not news to anyone though. #9Wins

 

[SUPERBUNNY]

I think we learned that Nebraska is still good at beating teams ranked below #30, and for some fans, it still won't matter that we can't win championships as long as Bo can get to 9 wins.

The same people that complain about Bo would have been screaming for Osborne's head in the 80s and early 90s. Do we need some changes? Sure. Let's get a new OC (one willing to bench TA). But we don't need a new HC.

That's BS! Pelini has a huge image problem. What coordinator in their right mind wants to come work for that asshat? Second, what kid that is being recruited by Pelini and other wants to play for a guy that acts like he does? Yes, we need a new OC. We also need to quit giving up 50+ in big games. This isn't a small sample of work we can look at. We have 7 years of winning games we should and losing virtually all the games that are close or we are underdog. Keep Pelini and accept 9-4 with a long-term spiral downward.

I learned we are on par with Iowa. I knew this game would be extremely close. Iowa is better than us on some days and we are better than them on some days. But neither of us are beating Ohio State, MSU, or Wisky anytime soon in this conference. Maybe this OT on the road victory vs. our "rival" is that signature win we have all been looking for!

 

[SUPERBUNNY]

Remember when Ferentz at Iowa was the hot property? They locked him down with a big contract and he has responded with a serious dose of mediocrity. Sound familiar? Bo knows mediocrity!

Maybe, but do you know what the difference is?

Conference championships

Orange Bowls

National Championship appearances

Finishing the season ranked

Beating top ranked teams

Significantly lower number of national embarrassments

The coach is ALWAYS to blame when things go poorly. The players are ALWAYS credited when things go well.

That's why players play and coaches get paid 3 million plus and 750,000 plus. Seems like a fair trade off to me.

People type DPE because nobody knows how to spell DeMornay Pierson-El.

I'm just too lazy to type it out...

What coordinator wants to play for a coach that sticks by them the way Bo does (to the point it angers the fan base)?
What player wants to go to a school where the coach honors your scholarship even though you might never play again?

Bo only has an image problem with some husker fans. His players love him. Recruits love him.

Jesus... He got a kid from the SEC country to come to Nebraska and be one of the best RBs in school history.

You are living in a fantasy world.

And spiral downward? The worst we have ever finished is 4 losses. You have no evidence we will get worse.

and the most important? Being able to execute the simple basics of football. And not look like a frickin pop warner team for stretches week in week out.

That kid from SEC country came here because the SEC schools wanted him to play corner.
