In hoping to not pass out before the 2:30 games. Go bison

Iowa State just did a 97 yard drive on Okie State to tie game at 21 going into half time.  Both are ranked.  The point is, there are good games on already chuckleshuffle

Minnesota hasn't punted yet.

I'm just glad we don't play Appalachian State. Can you imagine them not punting the whole game and going Michigan in the Big House on us?

You, Sir, have great taste.  That's my favorite when I can find it.  

Mine, too. I have to drive to Joplin for it, but it's worth the trip.

 

[Ric Flair]

Moos ahould announce today that Riley & Co. are gone at the end of the season. Let them coach it out, but make clear this isn’t acceptable. Watching this and them pretending there is still a decision to be made is harmful and demoralizing. 

 

[Hedley Lamarr]

Would anyone be upset with Moos if he said apathy and effort have created a toxic environment and I felt it was best for all sides to part ways and move a different direction after this game?

Moos has to make a move today.  He has no choice.

I think we see a lot of Cover 1 man. Well, that's what a competent DC would do after seeing the first half. They can't separate, their QB is very inaccurate. You can bring that extra man down practically risk free.

With the safeties afraid to fill the gaps, I'm not sure that helps NU. Sadly.

It's not going to happen. Riley will finish out the season.

ill be getting some Moose Drool later

On a positive note, It would appear that there will be zero allegations of improper touching, groping or close personal contact made against the Nebraska defense on the field today.

I don't think it will work if we want to try and push Riley into retirement and save face for ourselves.  If we wanted to save some money by having him retire, we dont want our admins saying anything bad about him and just letting him get his golden parachute.  I think Moos rides out this garbage until Iowa and then let's him know he retires or get fired, his choice.

Doesn’t seem like it can get any worse but what happens if we fire Riley and Diaco/Lang’s becomes interim HC and it actually does get worse?  I think we might just have to ride this one out.  Two more weeks.  

 

[Danimal]

Just tuned in after work. What the s#!t's going on?

I work overnights, just woke-up and skip-watched through the first half on the dvr, I knew we were not a good football team but come-on. Wow,  just wow

Our season is done, so it really doesn't matter either way.  It will show the true character of the players on the field and the coaches taking over though. 

 

[The Duke]

Moos has to make a move today.  He has no choice. 

Moos has already said that he will not fire coaches during the season. He genuinley seems like a man of his word.

Best we can hope for is that he has a discussion with Riley after this game, and Riley does the right thing and announces his retirement.

Outside of that, just be patient. It's only 2 more weeks and then the rebuild can begin.
