2012 Wisconsin is the hands down winner here. Nebraska had no business losing by 40+ points to a 7-5 Wisconsin team that backed its way into a conference championship game because of tOSU's ineligibility. Not only was the performance uninspired but NU's defense was embarrassingly torched by some of the same plays over and over. On paper, that was BP's best chance to win a conference championship and he couldn't get it done. I'm still completely flustered by that game to this day. As a side note, 2014 Wisconsin is an interesting choice to consider because this loss was the straw that broke the camels back for me. I felt it was time for BP to be let go after that game.

There are certain things in history that simply can't be undone. Are we going to just have everyone who isn't native American not own any land in the US and probably have to move out of the country so all the native Americans can have their land back? Obviously not. There is no way for that to actually take place. What white people did to the native Americans is deplorable and should never have happened. BUT...let's not pretend that before that, native American tribes were living here in peace and harmony. They were brutal to each other taking land and territories from each other.

Statistically, it's 2012 Wisconsin part 2....by a mile. You can't get much more embarrassing than that. Personally the 2010 Texas game when we were ranked 5th in the country, hadn't trailed in a game yet on the scoreboard, revenge for the 2009 title game, were playing at home, and were playing a Texas team that finished 5-7........that was just the biggest kick in the crotch imaginable.

That, and Kenny Bell's totally legal block.

*twitches*

Cotton might say it was at Texas A&M a couple of weeks later.

is his lost temper an option?

Haven’t had an opportunity to step inside in person, but wanted to share. Beautiful facility:

We seem to be behind if we are serious with this kid. Says Washington and Northwestern are his leaders. Should add those two to the voting poll. Talks Washington as well as his tendinitis issues. Says wants to commit by end of June. https://247sports.com/college/washington/Article/The-Washington-Huskies-are-one-of-2019-George-Ranch-Richmond-Tx-DE-Peter-Mpagis-top-schools-now-that-theyve-offered-118113064

If Bo was as nice a guy as Mike Riley then Bo might be here also. If Bo could recruit like Callahan and was as nice as Mike Riley, we might've had another Tom Osborne.

In the thread about Pelini’s best win, I was reminded that there were so many exciting moments during the Pelini years, but then this thread comes along and reminds of all the gut-punches and flabbergasting disappointments. Some losses to bad teams simply should not have been, but others were defeats snatched from the jaws of victory that prevented us from taking that next step toward relevancy and/or hardware in the trophy case: Think about the title games vs Texas and OU, and our series against V Tech. Not to mention Texas A&M. So much frustration. Makes ya want to swing a hat at a ref.

2012 Badger game and it’s not even close imo. That was the worst effort I’ve ever seen a team give in a meaningful game. There is no reason whatsoever for Nebraska to give up 600 yards rushing to a 7-5 team.

really can't afford to lose anyone else. not a ton of experience on this line.

I’m gonna go with the win against Clemson in the 2009 Gator Bowl. Showed grit and early win in the career.

Made his top ten.

Rant on Not singling you out, but do we have to comment every time there is a typo or they say huskies? Rant off

Still the best summary of the America's gun control debate (or lack thereof): Ever since then, I watch each one of these tragedies as someone who supports moderate gun control efforts to at least stem the tide of dead children and have to just shrug. The problem is there is no amount of gun control that's acceptable to gun enthusiasts & gun rights folks, so what are the rest of us to do? The structure of the House ensures they have more representation that won't budge.

In his six years, Frank Solich only had one season that wouldn't have been welcome on Tom Osborne's resume. But man....that 7-7 season hit Nebraska fans like a Callahan/Riley sandwich back in the day. Of course we should welcome the man back. Some forget that Frank was also the toughest 160 pound fullback you've ever seen.

Just follow suit and release your Top 28 man

The 2012 Loss to Wisconsin was the worst loss, for a couple of reasons IMO. It was in the CCG and the fact that they looked completely lost are big reasons. They just got annihilated. I would not have been surprised at losing to Wisconsin it was just the manner at which it happened. It reminded me of the 2001 game against Colorado. NU limped into that game and had nothing left in the tank. They were beat up and had a lot of hurt guys and Wisconsin was getting all their guys healthy and they were just hungry to beat Nebraska. The game plan was terrible the adjustments were terrible. Just an awful game.

It's hard to play football when you're still blasted from the night before. At least that game was on the players. Wisky '12 was primarily on the coaches.

I went with the 09' Iowa State game. Iowa State came into our house with their backup QB and backup RB and won the game.

I'm not going to assume anything of the sort if it's people who back Trump who are looking into it. It's intuitively obvious it wasn't politically motivated. If it had been, as has been said hundreds of times, the news of the investigation would have come out in October or November. Yet they came out with the news on Clinton.

2012 UCLA Why this game and not the aforementioned Wisconsin game? Because this is where that gameplan came from. This is the game that exposed Nebraska in the flats. Wisconsin relentlessly attacked Nebraska outside the numbers, running and passing, with their backs.

Pruitt was the DC and LB coach at Bama before he got the TN job. Tough pull for a top rated kid who wanted to play in the SEC

I'm not sure if this is racist, but it's certainly profoundly stupid. I'm getting really tired of my fellow white guys acting like pompous, victimized a-holes. But Trump's America has unleashed a whole new level of white folks looking around and saying "But what about MY problems?" Not in a "let's help everyone" kind of way, either. More like a "we've been forgotten & abused & we have to take back what's rightfully ours from other groups of people" kind of way.

Rudy is just making crap up now.

Personally, I can admit that what my ancestors did was disgusting, but also understand that I had no part in it, and that I have just as much right as any Native American to live/own land here.

Barbaric times in South Africa when the colonizers came for diamonds and gold and forced the native majority into segragation, economic and social dispair. I'm glad the native people regained control from the savages who came to their land and destroyed the native way of life out of lust for riches.

I'm just looking for juan fair shot to get this guy.

Shucks. It's always a little embarrassing when I'm singled out like this.

Sounds like the staff has been prepping Farmer to move to center which would open up a spot for Wilson at guard.

That’s a blow to the OL for sure. They were clearly better when Decker was at center last year. Had to have been a hard decision for him. Best of luck to him.

We will be much better with Cavanaugh gone regardless.

I'm glad they're all gone.

I think it's hard to trust the integrity of this poll for two reasons: 1) recency bias and 2) Sam just tweeted out three 'unpopular sports opinions' on May 11 and said the 1999 team would've won a national title if TO was still the coach. I think it's influencing a lot of his followers to vote for '99. In fact, I almost voted for it myself (because I had remembered seeing his tweet) but then I thought about it and said wait... no... 1983 has to be it. Here's the tweet:

Seemed really impressed with his visit. Liked watching practice and getting to talk to Austin and Frost. Looking to come back for a game in the fall. Said he has the best relationship with Nebraska and Kansas State right now.

St. Louis H.S. in Hawaii is more like 3700 miles. We gotta lock down the 4000 mile radius
