Born N Bled Red

I want them to bring their A game, but I want that A game to be so crappy that we do to them what we did to Northwestern... My god the gloating I heard when they beat us by 3 with a mash unit oline and a 3rd string qb, warrants at least of decade of sheer dominance from us and craptastic football for them alone.

I'm cool with this for any team but Iowa. I moved to Iowa at the start of the Callahan years. They've been insufferable. They don't deserve nice things.

Screw that, haha. I'd rather play a top 20 Wisconsin, Minnesota, Northwestern during the season and stomp the celler dweller unranked, deflated Hawks as a warm up game before the Conf. Championship every black Friday. I want to do this all game long against the Hawks.

Haha, nah, rent free would be if I didn't have their fans, my friends and family, squawking at me constantly and I was still posting this. Trust me, these folks have definitely paid their rent.

If you are like me and have the pleasure of knowing any Hawk fans, you are surely hearing them crow about their team's Number 3 ranking,, and Nebraska's lack thereof. For all of you in this unfortunate situation with me, here is some information to help you set them straight, or at least give them something to ponder. Iowa has played Indiana which has a record of 2-3, Iowa State 3-2, Kent State 2-3, Colorado State 1-3, Maryland 4-1 - Combined record of Iowa Opponents 12-12. Nebraska has played Illinois 2- 4, Fordham 2-3, Buffalo 2-3, Oklahoma 5-0, Michigan State 5-0, Northwestern 2-3. For a combined record of 18-13. Iowa has such an easy schedule- Penn State is the only ranked team left on their schedule, and will likely be the only team on the scheduled ranked at the end of the season, unless Iowa State, Nebraska or Wisconsin can go on a run and sneak in the rankings later in the season. Honestly, with that schedule if they don't finish at least 10-2 they should be embarrassed. I think they will likely lose to Penn State, win the West, lose in the Conf. Championship, and then finish for an Iowa Best Rose Bowl loss for a pedestrian 10-4, 11-3 season (losing to us on Black Friday). That they will crow about being "this close" to making the playoff. Looking at the BIG, there might not be a team from the BIG in the playoff this year... Nebraska's schedule will feature 5- maybe 6 teams ranked at the end of the season, with the potential of multiple being in the top-10. We'll see if Iowa is for real when they play Penn State this weekend.

Thought that should have been PI on that 4th down play.

I used to play that league too. Great time!

Yes @Thurston from Pender. Dredge may be necessary. I'll meet you and record in order to appease the football gods.

Sure

Exactly like the Steele Dossier I'm so glad you pointed this out.

Inspired by the play that lost the game at Mich. St., Nebraska tries the 2 returner thing... opposing team kicks the ball right between thr two returners, neither calls for the ball and they run into and injure each other as the punt comes down squarely on one returners nuts and rolls into the open field. Muffed punt then taken in for a td by opposing team.

Blocked field goal returned for a touchdown, short field goal returned for a touchdown, punt kicked backwards-everyone confused- opposing team picks it up after all the huskers stand and stare at it not knowing what to do and they take it in for a td.

The Pelini curse!

I get the idea here. And I have said if Held wasn't such a great recruiter he would be the first on my list to get axed, but I have to believe there is a reason he isn't playing. Frost referenced him getting down to weight yesterday in his PC. Maybe he is also a fumble risk or something thats keeping him out.

Does Toure have his Covid year yet so that he could come back next year or was he 1 and done as a grad transfer?

And of course... no call!

Its a shame cross division losses affect conference standings... they should be used as tie breakers. If we go 5-1 against the west. And lose our crossovers for a 5-3 conference record, and another team goes 4-2 against the west but wins their crossovers, the 5-1 division record should win the division.

I'd say Martinez outplayed Rattler with half the supporting cast.

We have the returning BIG kicker of the year... amazing how crappy he has been.

Plan was to go deep Martinez had no time.

Go man and stack the box...

No holding again???

Imagine if the score was what it should be 23-21 Nebraska lead.

Refs hate Neb. Late hit on Allen didn't get called either.

Cuz we got nothing on 1st and 10 with a stupid AF qb sneek
