  1. We got beat by Tennessee. Tennessee. Talk about embarassing. Oh and even though we won, getting into a bowl based on APR is not something to be proud of..
  2. Big Ten has 3 teams in the top 6 of this week's AP. Even I can do that math. If 1/3 of the top 6 teams are from the conference, I am pretty sure everyone can agree it is not an average conference. Far far from it. There are multiple very good teams. It does seem to indicate how wide the talent gap has become between the few at the top and those at the bottom. We are now in the conversation with Illinois and Rutgers.
  3. At least 3 wins. That much is certain.
  4. Was listening on Sirius, pretty sure Davison gave up. Bigly
  5. Stop calling this defense "blackshirts" now! That is a term that should be earned. Period. The end.
  6. Talk to the sideline reporter about halftime adjustments and congratulate Urban on a great win.
  7. Runza, are you reading this? Can you please provide the visiting locker room with a pile of food???
  8. Not sure we can make that dump look as beautiful as Memorial but I am willing to try! Who's with us? The Game's not over! It isn't over until we decide it is. Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
  9. Think outside the box, man! Let's assemble an Ocean's Eleven style crew...we need to build an exact replica of Memorial Stadium, like Blazing Saddles, and trick the Bucks into going to the wrong stadium. They'd have to forfeit.
  10. We need to bring extra TVs to the visitor's locker room, turn up the volume and change all the clocks. Set one of them to play GoT and hope they forget to take the field.
  11. I agree. Wichita State cancelled their football program after losing about half the team in a plane crash. Not funny.
  12. I'm here for the same reason. Was tying the ST success with the earlier fold our bend but don't break but probably could have been more clear about that! We need to sneak into the visitors locker room with some of the guys from Purdue to make it nice for them, maybe just bring Harbaugh - he has some good ideas
  13. the problem (not the word I mean, but) with scoring on special teams sometimes can be that your defense doesn't get a rest. I would absolutely take the ST scores and risk that, just saying
  14. They need to line up 12 on their side of the ball. Maybe 14.
  15. The Kansas loss comes to mind. How we looked in the 2012 Title game or the game where we let that RB gash us for 408.
  16. Well then, now we get to the real question, once a team is on the path (in this example, playing in 4 of 6 CCGs), how much further must they go to be considered great? does making the playoff satisfy that? What if they lose the semifinal? Is it winning a semifinal even if the team loses the NC? Does it require winning the NC? Are they great if they win the NC but don't win their division the following year? How much success and what kind makes a team great? Does missing the playoff and winning one of the NY6 bowls count for anything?
  17. In order for Nebraska to be a great team, would you agree that they must first win the West, then win the B1G? That really is my point. Wisconsin hasn't gone to the next level, yet, and may never do so. But struggling to make a bowl game, or considering whether Nebraska can maybe sneak into one with 5 wins based on APR is a far cry from great.
  18. I don't think anyone suggested that you do. I was merely pointing out that they have had quite a bit of success lately and seem to find themselves in the rankings as a result.
  19. That may be true, but they have played in the CCG 4 times since 2011 and won it twice. IN other words, out of the six CCGs so far, they have played in 2/3 of them. That's more than any other school. They also scheduled Alabama and LSU in Non-Con during that span. Several of their past assistants are HC somewhere else. Did you see the stat during the game last Sat. that their record over the last 5 years was 4th best in the nation? Our program and their program are worlds apart. Don't forget in 2012 they played us in the CCG after finishing 3rd in their division and, well...we all know how that turned out.
  20. I just found Chryst's contract on the internet. He makes less than $3MM/year. They have had a TON of turnover since Bielema left for Arkansas. Point being they have maintained a high level of success through all the turnover and without breaking the bank.
  21. Maybe ask why Anderson left so suddenly and agreed to waive his contract before offering him the job.
