  1. I often think back to the 2009 Big XII title game. We go up 10-9 with around a minute left. We had stopped Colt and the Longhotns all night. Hell, Suh made Colt his rag doll b*^ch.

    Then the WORST kickoff ever happens.

    Kunalic kicks it OB and Texas has about 30 yards to go for a fg attempt. Made it. 12-10 final. Texas goes to NCgame. We go to the Holiday Bowl instead of a BCS bowl.

    I think if Kunalic doesn't kick it OB, we have a different situation right now.

    We probably wouldn't be consistent NC game participants, but we would be way more consistent in big games and a lot more relevant.

    IMO

  2. I'm a wait and see guy, but once the Michigan job opened and they said they weren't going with a "Michigan Guy" for say, and Florida hired McElwain, I personally think SE got happy feet and didn't let the process play out. He got a safe pick that is well respected in the coaching world. It's SE's a$$ on the line.

    I hope Riley does well and brings us over the "hump" but I'd hate to see what people say after a 6-6 or 7-5 record, a 3 TD loss, or a multiple game losing streak. This board will BO up. Oops, Blow up.

  3. If ya go to an 8 team playoff, teams 9 & 10 will be arguing on not getting in. Hoops went from 64 to 65, then to 68 and teams 69 70 71 72 complain about not getting in.

    The bigXII was just too arrogant 3-4 years ago when conferences were grabbing schools to expand. They need 2 more schools BYU, & Colorado State or Boise State to get to 12.

    Funny that they thought for years to come, the first Saturday in October would be their title game. Haha Bevo and Boomer.

  4. The WRs & RBs should help Riley move in. Pearson-El, Westerkamp, Cross and Taylor should all do the heavy lifting of boxes. Our line should help too, but they'll start too early and get a yellow wash cloth thrown at them.

  5. Oregon has hung 50 on pretty much everyone except Arizona and Michigan State(46). Except for maybe 3 or 4 defenses in the PAC12 is weak. They play a bend but don't break on steroids defense. Get us the ball back as soon as you can. TRY to give up 3.

    Riley will adjust to the physicality of the B1G. Just Gary Anderson did at Wisconsin. Just give him time to play it out. A coach with this much respect around all of football, must know what he is doing.

  6. The last few years he would be nuts not to pass the ball first with Matt Moore and Sean Mannion. Both NFL QBs. I think he is smart enough to do what his team gives him. Run when it's your strength, pass when needed.

    Getting crap from my Badger friends saying "who??" "nice hire". Me forgetting that Gary Anderson is on the Mount Rushmore of all time coaching.

  7. I have a hunch that Riley, 61, isn't coming alone. Frost may be our next hire as OC. I say this because it just feels like TO had his 2 cents in this decision (final). Riley. Frost. Orgeron.

    Maybe making a "dream-staff" at some lengths.

    Riley gets introduced during the Creighton game Sunday, and he doesn't come alone. "Let me introduce you to my OC, former Husker Scott Frost.

    A guy can hope.
