In the past several years, the Hawk program has been better, and there is no doubt that the Husker program has become worse (at least worse than in the good old days). Go to ESPN.com and take a look at the stats. It is amazing how similar the teams are TODAY (save the old "trophies in the trophy case for another day when reflecting on the past). There is no doubt that the "blackshirts" are more of a dull gray these days! Nebraska should still win by a big margin (mainly because the HAVE to) as they are the better team, and they are at home in front of the "nations best fans" (the ones that boo both the team and the coach when losing!)

There is no doubt that Nebraska will have thier way with the Hawks today. The Huskers are just a better team in most areas of the game. It would not suprise me if the Huskers won by 4 touchdowns. That said, the game does need to be played,and I have seen crazier things happen........ Not that it would ever happen, but could you imagine the pain if T-Mart had a bad day, and the Hawks lit it up? All of the trash talking usually favors the underdogs..

I predict that Nebraska will handily beat Iowa tomorrow. They should as they are the better team. That said, reading through this thread is incredible. Back when Nebraska was good, you could really talk smack and back it up. Now, everybody pretty well realizes that Nebraskas best days are behind them, so you need to be a little more careful in choosing your words. I remember back in the day when the "nations best fans" would stand up and applaud the losing team in Memorial Stadium. It took real balls to go in there and get slaughtered. What happens with the "nations best fans" now. They boo the quarterback, they boo the coach, and after every loss they want to get rid of both. Do the "nations best fans" still applaud for the visiting team when that team handily beats Nebraska? I think not. In fact, when losing, most fans leave the stadium. Yes, you will win tomorrow, and probably by a bunch. That is pretty much a given. It also a given that no longer is your fan base held in as high esteem as they were when the team was good. It is sure easy when they are winning!
