I think that once we get to an even 30 years of rebuilding, it will be smooth sailing. 

He'll always have been the QB who trucked defenders.

I learned that I want to see Nebraska in the national championship-- it would be an exciting game and they'd lose by 3-9 points.

We can lose to literally anyone by single digits margins. It's kind of fascinating.

It's gotten worse with each coach; so, if we're going to look awful, it might as well be with a Nebraskan. 

Before we get carried away by speculation and calls for members of the coaching staff being fired or otherwise driven off, we need to stop and assess what we're doing here. There is a fundamental problem with the question being asked!!

It should be "whom."

That's the talk around the salt water aquarium shop.

why have a regular season if they just pick and choose who the best teams are rather than have them earn it on the field?   not going to watch it for 2 reasons....

1.   the teams that earned the chance to be there are not there

2.  i have 0 interest in the teams that are there

 

This. Just have the committee watch the teams' scrimmage games and decide who the best four *seem* to be and have them play.

So you're saying states to the EAST of us are Midwest states but we aren't? Does that make us a Pac 10 school??

Iowa is about as far west as the Midwest goes. Nebraska, the Dakota's, Kansas, and Oklahoma are Plains states.

I've never heard anyone say Nebraska is not in the midwest before today.

 

 

Nebraska is part of the Great Plains.

I always add that no other Midwest team has won more than 1 national title in the past 50 years which IMO matters (most not even 1). Not Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Wyoming, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Colorado, or Michigan. If you want to count Ohio St as MW than they'd be the only ones. Incredible what Tom did here. 

Ohio State has won 4. A few of the states you listed aren't Midwestern (neither is Nebraska).

What a weird thing to think about or find sexually arousing.

Now is the winter of our dis content...

A fine attempt at an allusion!  However, Richard wasn't saying that it was, as he was speaking, the winter of their discontent. He was saying that the winter was now being supplanted by summer with the rightful installation of a new king and was making a Sun/son pun. So instead try:

Now is the winter of our discontent

Made glorious summer by this son of York Wood River.

Lit lesson for the day.

I hate blocking! Back in caveman times, people just ran after the antelope, and it's not like the antelope had blockers! The quarterback should have to run for his life because no gazelle could throw to keep himself from getting beat to death with a caveman rock! I also think kicking is dumb. 

This would be a major bummer. I like his excitement and energy when games are going well, and I like his candor when things are not. I'd say that he's the reason I've kept listening to most games this season: "Ohhh What is Davison going to say about this???"

Well, because he's not a good coach, and he hired a staff coaches that were also not good.  That's my take.

Also he lost all of those games.

Haha im done, screw this.  This sh!tshow has hit my breaking point.  Hope that 30 seconds before game ends Riley and his coaches are escorted off the field and we never hear from them again.

 

Maybe he'll be met midfield with a box full of the contents of his desk. 

I learned that I feel bad for Iowa having to be saddled with us as a "rival." Sorry.

Then I'd make a really witty, cutting remark.

 

Then I'd ask, "how do you like them apples?"

Solid!

What really was your reason for coming to Nebraska?  Did you really expect to win or did you do it to get more money for retirement?  Because you sure didn't approach it like you expected to win.

This one makes me sad... I think he did think he could win. I think he bought into the hype that was being spread: that he had never had the facilities or the backing to really put together a cracker jack team. So, he comes to UNL, has all the resources he could imagine, and still loses. This is what he's been doing his entire life, is finally given almost everything he probably ever felt he was lacking at other colleges, and still ended up .500. That has to be really just crushing. It's just a really sad story. I truly believe he thought he could win here.

I've had three impacts in my life that have resulted in migraine symptoms (nearly life-long migraine sufferer). Those were all pretty substantial concussions.

I personally know Butch Jones.  He called me just before getting fired and agreed that he should be fired and we should fire Riley.

I think I've been to your salt water aquarium shop! I bought a trigger fish from you and you got me up to speed on the latest husker gossip. Great shop, btw!

If they win 11 games, we will be the -1

 

Penn State loses to Nebraska, mark it.

Marked! I'm feeling good about this game now!
