Boy of the Corn

I don't know if I like the Georgia Tech idea. While it may help recruiting, I don't like to see teams in a conference to be too spaced apart ie Boise State to the Big East.

3 reasons for Pitt: They are an AAU (academics) member, they have a rivalry with Penn State, and location.

I think I fixed the formatting now. And yes that is the idea. Anything has got to be better than legends and leaders.

9 conference games + 2 nonconference+ 2(championship games) 13 potential regular season games. No real big difference in games. Also I chose these teams primarily due to location, and history, but those could be different.

First we add 4 teams. I don't like the idea of 14 teams I don't see any good way to make it work. Notre Dame Virginia Tech Syracuse Pittsburg Second We divide our conference into 4 divisions instead of 2 and name them geographically East:Penn State,Pittsburg,Virginia Tech, Syracuse West: Nebraska, WIsconsin, Iowa, Minnesota North: Ohio State, Michigan , Indiana, Purdue SouthMichigan State, Notre Dame, Illinois, Northwestern Each Team play the 3 teams in its division and 2 in every other division creating 9 conference games. Each team only is allowed 2 non conference games. 3rd we create a B1G conference tournament. The winner of each division plays winner of other division (north south and west east). Then Winner of semifinals play for B1G CHampionship. This would allow us to expand but still have significant conference games and every team would be played 2 times in a 4 year span, divisional games played every year.

Are we still recruting Taylor's brother? Any updates on him?

After the beat down this week, I find myself not as excited about the rest of this season, atleast until we find out who we play in the bowl game. So I started looking forward to next season and decided to give a prediction for the Regular Season. Date Opponent Site AP Rank W/L NU/Opp 09/01 Southern Miss Lincoln W 09/08 UCLA Pasadena W 09/15 Arkansas State Lincoln W Pretty easy non- conference 09/22 ? W 09/29 #Wisconsin Lincoln W They lose Ball and Wilson and game is at home 10/06 #Ohio State Columbus L Can't beat mobile QB (especially if meyer is coach and in Columbus 10/13 Bye? 10/20 #Northwestern Evanston W Get revenge from 2011 in close game 10/27 #Michigan Lincoln L Still can't beat mobile Qb Robinson 11/03 #Michigan St. E. Lansing W They lose Cousins. 11/10 #Penn State Lincoln W New coaching staff. Home game. 11/17 #Minnesota Lincoln W Closer than expected 11/23 #Iowa Iowa City W Ferentz won't last long as a coach. Big 10 Championship: (I bet Michigan goes) Not played. Overall record before bowl game 9-2 with A BCS bowl (though we won't deserve it). Your thoughts?

Hello. I am not an every day poster but every once in a while like to voice my opinion. I used to post on huskerpedia until it was shut down. As a result I haven't posted anything for a couple weeks, but this week wanted to post and voice my opinion. I didn't want to pay anything to express my opinions so I came here. It will be good to read everyone's husker opinions again and occasionally write my thoughts. Like I would assume most of you, I was extremely distraught over this game. Bottom line we just did not look very good and it is frustrating especially after hearing about the potential to go to a BCS game if we win out. Of course that won't happen now, and my I just hope our team has enough morals to play good next week and beat our boastful overrated pesky neighbor state and win our first big 10 trophy game. After watching the Michigan game today, I feel we are not getting things done the way I had expected. Obviously husker fans including myself have high expectations. Bo Pelini has won over 70% of his games, yet I was ready to call for the end of his term. Of course this came with the grave realization that this would not happen, unless, the rest of the season spirals downward. I then changed my tune to simply hoping perhaps some changes are made with assistant coaches, especially in the defensive area, although, I still am not sold on our offensive line (although improvement has been made). That being said, I was curious and took a look at the 2003 season, and noticed it was strikingly similar to our team this year. In 2003 (the year Solich was fired and Bo Pelini was Defensive Coach) we lost 3 years. I looked further into those 3 losses (all by atleast 17 points) and made an observation that still seems to be true today: we could not and we cannot beat teams with a duel threat Quarterback. In 2003 our losses came to the following teams: Missouri, Texas, and Kansas State. All of these teams had a duel threat Quarterback. Brad Smith, Vince Young, and Ell Roberson all were able to defeat us. This year, our 3 losses this far have also come against duel threat attacks. Russel Wilson at WIsconsin, Dan Persa and Company at Northwestern, and Denard Robinson all got the best of us. This leaves me with some hope for the rest of the year as I do not believe Iowa has a rushing QB. However, It also leaves me with the question, Can Bo Pelini defeat a good team with a duel threat QB? What improvement on defense has been made from year one to now (obviously a big change from cosgrove, but what about after that)?
