Peoriahusker

thats probably somewhat accurate

I think twice..but it was the Rose bowl, not a Natl championship..even if they went to the natl champ game I could give them credit. Seriously, they were as arrogant as any fans I've seen..and i've been to Norman etc.

I'll be honest, after spending a weekend in Madison and getting the verbal abuse I received at that game..I hope they lose every game they have left on their schedule. Payback for me isn't worth having to listening to a group of fans talk smack about a team who's never won anything that really matters.

I just don't think he has a point, Knapp. Talking about getting the media back on "our side", when there has been a very large amount of positive public publicity for our program all year long DESPITE the Wisconsin blowout. If we really weren't getting any respect for our MSU win then we wouldn't have jumped up to 10th in the polls, our announcers made mention of it but I haven't seen that actually be talked about as a point of emphasis, just a sidenote. He also talks about some media we "could care less about", which should be couldn't, but whatever, and mentions Kirk Herbstreit, who has had plenty of positive things to say about Nebraska over the years. There is no lack of media attention, as he puts it. he, is Peoriahusker..i can see you and I are going to have fun on here! maybe lack of media attention was the wrong choice of words..maybe it's respect..when do we win games because we are good and not because the other team didn't show up. it must not just be me, it seems to me that others on the board are answering the original post with some interesting answers...7 more games, a BCS bowl etc. I'm trying to determine why you are having such a hard time grasping this one.

Honestly, I disagree. If we win the B1G this year, all we will hear is "Oh, the big ten is just a weak conference..." I think we need to win a BCS bowl game in impressive fashion, possibly vs. an SEC team or Oregon/Stanford. I agree 100%

really? first, Wisconsin got gameday..we are ranked 10th in the BCS, and very few people in the media chalk that up to us being a good team. My example was the Michigan State game where almost everyone wrote the game off as Mstate not showing up...we are on national television because of the conference we find ourselves in now among other things. Don't get me wrong, we get more attention than we did when we sucked, I just hate to use that as a measuring stick. We haven't gotten as much respect as we should have for that Michigan St. win IMO. I think you can attribute the Mich. St. win to a bit of both....NEB playing a damn good game and was a better prepared team and also Mich St. being a bit gassed from all of the consecutive big games they had. I would honestly favor the former though b/c that Neb D played with their hair on fire and the offensive line was getting some solid blocks that sprang Burkhead for 130yrds rushing. was the first time all year I saw our Dbacks being physical at the line..that made a huge difference in my opinion.

didn't take sides, was just tired of all the stupid banter on the other site with regards to the law suit etc...plus I don't pay to post on the Internet and heard good things about this board.

so I mention to my oldest son(13) tonight that we are back up to 9...his reply to me, "I want us to be #1"... that's my boy!! Excellent work on keeping that championship mentality up for the kids who can't remember the glory years. I too want to be #1. ya, both my boys were all upset over Wisconsin..ticked off etc(so was I)..I said, son, I watched many games with my dad where we lost a big game that kept us from winning a championship..I had to wait my time, you can wait yours..

I'm not saying we don't deserve the lack of media attention and respect with some of the eggs we've layed, but, how many big wins do we need to get them back on our side? Im sure everyone has noticed that for most, it wasn't how well Nebraska played, but how MState didn't show up. And before you say it, yes I know that some of the media we could care less about... Herbie... GO BIG RED

Peoriahusker here. GO BIG RED

was there as well, that video sealed the deal for me..I loved that we actually changes some things up to get the crowd going...Pelini's speech was a great added touch.

What Champaign isn't mentioning is that our friend(resident nut) ended up walking onto the field during the game day production for that 2001 OU game and stood on the sidelines with the team for the first 2 quarters..keep in mind, this was when security was at an all time high due to 9/11. At the end of the second Q, an official came over and asked him for his credentials..he said "what credentials, I just walked in here with the others."...the single funniest thing i've seen at a game. no they didn't kick him out..he sat next to us on the stairs.. GO BIG RED

Law suit been going on for a few years. Original owners vs those that took over. Settled now to the original owners and with the Judge's decision comes a 30 day shutdown of HP. Not sure if Pedia comes back after that or just shuts down and they concentrate on Max. Either way, some of us are coming here. GBR It's turned into a political board where everyone is talking about all the legal stuff etc...I come to these sites to get away from business and talk Huskers..not listen to more crap about who makes the money etc..

Went through the window...too long a line at the door

Looking forward to meeting some new friends and re-connecting with my pedia brothers. GO BIG RED
