Redux

Polls are easily manipulated to get the results the surveyor desires.

An online poll yielded the results they wanted....no way

I can live with that too. But I'd love for them to overlook us rather than bring their A game. Most teams I want to beat at their best. Not Iowa. I want to do to Iowa what we did to Northwestern.

I hope they are 11-0 when they come to Lincoln and are already looking ahead to Michigan or tOSU. Would be absolutely wonderful to ruin iy for them.

Iowa fan jealousy/hate sometimes scrolls across my TikTok feed. Saw one last week where some scatter brained gal wearing a fugly yellow shirt has the caption "when Nebraska says they want to leave the conference" the audio then switches to "B%$&H I WISH THA F@#$ YOU WOULD". And then in the comments the Hawkeye faithful praising such an admirable and original video, saying how we just live in the past and think we're better than we are. Yeah, Nebraska lives rent free in their head even when we are at a historical low and they are at an all time high. Pretty sad.

Illinois felt like the last 6yrs all over again. Really hurt even though I'd turned numb. Since then it's felt like 2008 when I was feeling like this team could be good again. This game, what a performance. Hope this sticks, GBR!

If you don't recognize the prayer and you actually use the phrase mamby pamby......maybe you should just sit back down

YASSSSSSSS I'M BRINGING IT BACK WITH GSG

Dear Lord,

Completely unverifiable and solely opinion based. All it takes is a time out, quick sideline hype up, and the right play call. Long shot, absolutely. Not worth trying, nay.

You literally said Martinez is playing so good he could be in Heisman discussion if we win games in another thread, but in this thread condone not sending out "Heisman Candidate QB" out to try and get us into FG range. Nothing you say is believable and you're only disagreeing out of bias towards me. Keep stirring the pot, you negated any opinions you've shared in here now.

It's not zero. It's never zero. Watch College Football Final any week, it literally happens every week every season. Just because we're Nebraska doesn't mean we couldn't do it. Watch this game again, we moved the ball against them, we scored against them. Take a timeout, give a passionate sideline speech and go out and get some yards back. If you fight and lose it's always going to look better than admitting you don't have what it takes to overcome the odds which is what that looks like.

What's laughable is you having the defeatist mentality that opting for OT was a good idea, though I'm not shocked. And I'm proven right that it was the wrong choice by the outcome. Thanks for playing. The best chance to win is always going to be try to win before regulation ends, especially on the road. Remember BYU? BYU remembers. I feel like you didn't even watch the game, good lord. Neither team scored because they let time expire! Going for it and not scoring gets you right back to OT, meaning you have two chances to win the game instead of just one. Your point is weak just like opting for OT. Color me shocked you think that..... Lol it's not speculation or overreacting. I knew as soon as the sack hit we were tucking tail and heading to overtime. The risk of losing is outweighed by the chance at a victory this would've been in spectacular fashion. 30 seconds left, 2 timeouts, on the road at #20, a kicker that's been dreadful, an O line that plays blindfolded etc. You wanna boost morale? You wanna silence detractors? You wanna boost the kicker and O lines confidence? Go out and friggin win. Or at least try dammit. I will never condone opting for OT. Not for Frost, not for anyone. It's weak. It sent the message to the team that he clearly doesn't trust them to dig down and find that surge. But that's my opinion and you're welcome to yours. We know how it ended, so don't try to lecture me it wasn't worth trying.

.....and in the outcome we opted for we lost. The options were try to win in regulation while we had the ball and momentum or opt for the tie and try to beat #20 on road in overtime when momentum returns to equal. The option we chose was weak. As opposed to what? Him throwing a pick in OT and them kicking a FG to win? Which is what happened. So your logic doesn't really hold any water. You're trying to say OT was the safer choice. It was. And it was the wrong choice, and we all knew it when we let regulation expire. And you're disagreeing to disagree. The likelihood of them taking the ball away and scoring was far outweighed by us just NOT scoring or getting into FG range. The risk and reward need to be weighed and he didn't.

Trying to win the game with time left and time outs is too risky? Why not try to get into FG range and attempt a long kick while time expires? You wanna make Culp get over his woes, have him go out and win a game.

The team that lost to Illinois doesn't even resemble the one that should've bested MSU. Opting for Overtime is weak, and proven by the result was the wrong choice.

It's Tuesday.......still curious WHY THE EVER LOVING HELL DID WE OPT FOR OVERTIME AND NOT TAKE A DAMNED SHOT AT ATNLEAST GETTING INTO FG OR RANGE OR A HAIL MARRY?!?!?!?!??!?!?!!?!

Where did I say this or even infer it? This is completely dishonest and ridiculous.

Weird how these things come to light and then it's "well of course they do!". Good thing they had that "one" informant or that deadly attack may have almost killed someone besides......themselves.

I blame the loss on this not being finished

It was conspiracy theory to think this https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/fbi/573915-fbi-had-informant-in-crowd-during-capitol-riot-report Until it wasn't

And there it is

A chance to do or dare
