So, what was your prediction before the season? Most of these 9-3,10-2 and National Championship folks will probably dial it down by a half game or so now ... BRILLIANT!

This stuff isn't a talent issue at all. We get better recruits than Colorado ... even in the down years. You don't win games on the road when you fumble ... instead of score. You can't give up a flee flicker TD for 95 yards either when you have a team pinned. This post made me feel better ... I was thinking it was me turning in to watch the second half. I learned here that it was the TO before even the first offensive call. Well ... that makes me feel better. I was taking the blame. This is a better reason. I just wish you would have made this call right when that TO happened ... that would have been stellar!

We are 1-1 ... just as predicted. We could have won this game. We could have lost last week.

50 seconds in ... Hope it happens ... and not last second.

Really nice pickup for MIZ ... ZERY!

Ya, I'm still trying to figure out how this coaching staff went 13-0 [with all the mistakes] that they seem to express on how they are now putting players in bad situations, etc. Puzzling.

Um, South Alabama and the rest of the off-season schedule are really nothing compared to the B1G we will face. If anything, it all points for me that the core aspects of mental attitude and sound fundamental football are still outside of the grasp for this team through the first game. More to be revealed in this next week. We will have a good idea of what we have playing a team like Colorado who we say is not a rival (but those same people hate so much).

Two years straight Scott's team has had flat starts. It's the same stuff that happened with Riley. It's a good day when the other team gives you more gifts then your own mistakes you give away from simply bad football with poor discipline. As one who had us at 7-5 ... this one shows everyone that no one really knows. This year could be just as ugly as any other. I had this one as a W ... but even I thought we'd be crisp at least in the sense of playing hard, playing smart and tough. Never would have imagined Martinez being so tentative and "off". No real surprise with the OL issues here.

Rep points are overrated BIG TIME. I was on this board when it started ... just read until I joined a few years later. I'm reading this board almost every day since 2005. I post and interact weekly. What I find is that some new kid comes into the forum. They begin to "contribute" and you can usually tell those who are trying to "make a name" or be viewed as an "expert" or an opinion where they should be pumped as as something special. It seems like each year there are 4-5 guys that build a rep via even rep points where they have a higher rating than a guy like me who has been around for 15 years. Their points will be higher than mine in 6-9 months. The next thing that happens is they get c$%ky and believe they have more importance than they do ... and they get banned after warnings. In the end, I know who contributes to this board and the opinions worth reading and listening to. It's pretty obvious to see who the wannabee's are. I don't care what anyone's rep points are. You are who you are and what you contribute is all that matters along with folks who want Huskerboard to be a friendly community like who we are when we come together on game day toward those who are our competitors. Pass.
