I thought about Mark Mangino. 

I’ve been there too. You have a few. It’s been a rough week. You think about all those curves…

Can Defense play both ways?

I asked my wife the same thing and got slapped.

Not a damn thing by a damned sight

Never thought I’d be that underwhelmed by a two score win in this era of Husker football

It was Donavan’s nephew. Dominic is the father. 

I can't keep track of anything anymore

I'm pretty tolerating for the first year. I wouldn't mind seeing Raiola get changed out, and I have to think trying to get his son had to play a role in his hiring.

We’re the worst team in the Big Ten.

I’ve learned that all the things of my youth will be ripped from me and life will be a miserable slog

Seen enough to say this is a bad team that is slightly better than last year’s team.

Extremely clever to downsize while doing renovations lol

For the Fans that think for a Second that Callahan is Legit , it is only due to your Obscured Idea & Viewpoint of the actual events transpiring. CALLAHAN 100% Sabotaged Nebraska but additionally The 2002-2003 Raiders. I am not just assuming this accusations but rather know if I needed to could prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that Callahan was corrupted by his Self Proclaimed Friend from Way Back South Side Chicago Native Anthony D. Panico, the Chicago Mafia's go to guy for SPORT Betting Matters. That Name may sound familiar being Bill Callahan's First Scholarship Signer, Weeks after Being Fired At Oakland & Days after Rehire at Nebraska, ,,, Santino Panico, Son of Chicago Mob Outfit Sport Fixing Extraordinaire. Do your homework & Google Anthony D. PANICO OF Libertyville, IL & you will see part of the evidence yourself. Just follow the smoke,  Callahan thinks Nebraska is a bunch of Dumb Hicks & that he is too smart for dummies to do anything. He'd brag about how stupid the FBI & IRS is & that by the time they see the big picture he will be Untouchable, Celebrating there Huge Scores that have set them both up & there kids for a long time. 

...what year is it again

Honestly, not too worried if Sims has to start since I don't think it really makes much of a difference this week. He needs to get reps too.

Now, I'm generally pessimistic, but the rushing defense has been ridiculously impressive. I don't care it's not been against a top rushing team, you don't have the best start to your rushing defense since 1999 after 4 games without that unit being legitimately very good. There's a reason we didn't do it any other time the past 24 years.

I think we hold up well in the 1st half. 2nd half the defense will probably have been on the field too much and wear down.  

That's my guess too. Something like 14-0 at half, and then the wheels fall off.

I legit think we won’t even score a TD this game. Michigan 38, Nebraska 0-3. I’m thinking maybe 200 total yards and 2-3 turnovers. 

Eh I bet we get one in garbage time. Something like 31-10 sounds about right.

I still say at this point it's Haarberg's position to lose. Yeah, the opponents were weaker, but a lot of those turnovers from Sims were unforced, as in the opposition did not play a role in them.

I am going to the MSU game, so I hope you're right and I can finally watch a W. My last victory in person was Miami in 2014.

I mean 2014 wasn't that long a...(looks at year) oh

We won 2 games, against 2 lower level teams, and neither game was really ever in doubt. That’s a something we haven’t seen for 6 years. 

I wouldn't go so far as to say never in doubt, it was close going into the second half.

I think our defense will give a decent enough showing but no reason to expect anything but Michigan to roll.

Again, what dark, foul, unholy rites did Bob Devaney and Tom Osborne perform that we suffer as we do now? What black magic was committed? I have no other explanation.

Lol there's no mental illness likely involved here, he's just an ahole lol

Really, would you have said that in the T.O. days when it wasn't at all unusual for our QB's to run through defenders? If his mindset is to run through the defender then let him run through defenders. Especially if it motivates our backs to do the same. Gotta get away from this mindset that QB's are fragile. Wish a T.O. era player would comment about T.O's "good on good" practices (Umm.. Benning you around?) and if the QB's wore green jersey's in those scrimmages. How often do we hear it said that players get hurt when going only half speed so, lower your frame and dish out the blow. Besides, it sounds to me that HH enjoys that physical style of running. 

 

Playing Physical

My recollection on Twitter (Forgive me, I can't find it) is our QBs actually ran way less often in the 90s. I agree we should utilize it, but we're already running QBs at a high clip.
