  1. Grant could be a good one if our O-line could actually block
  2. I'm praying that the Urban Meyer secret conversations rumors are true
  3. It's terrible all around. The secondary got bailed out by a bad throw. Kid was wide open
  4. Like Gerry DiNardo said in the pregame, the level of the lines should be worlds apart. So far ND looks like the superior line
  5. Even Rutgers looked stout. Some people mentioned BC's coach as a possible replacement for Frost? How about no.
  6. damn, you jinxed it... but it's ok, I double-jinxed it and SDSU got a fumble recovery inside the 10
  7. Air Force is primed to have a really good year. If - IF - we want to back to the option, Troy Calhoun is a solid choice.
  8. Michigan looks light years ahead of us - we looked so close last year
  9. Now you're getting it - I've been saying that for years! Expect the worst, and everything turns out to be a pleasant surprise.
  10. You're right - it should not have been close, just like many games in Frost's tenure should not have been close. My point is, we all should have learned by now that you can't just assume that a game won't be close. There are no "gimmes" on the schedule anymore.
  11. I kept telling people we better not overlook NW and that last year's result had nothing to do with this season, and as usual people responded with their ""
  12. Point is, those teams may be competitive, but they're the exception. For the most part, recruiting matters. Also, with the right coach, I don't think we're that far away from a championship. Question is whether or not we're willing to pay for the right coach.
  13. I agree to an extent that these "fluff" games are somewhat of a waste, and give fans a false sense of hope.
  14. Brian Kelly is killing it on the recruiting trail. Another example of a guy making big strides in Year One at a new school. And before anybody says anything, yes I'm aware that's it's much easier recruiting to LSU than it is to Nebraska... which is exactly why we need a highly-regarded coach who kids will want to come to Lincoln to play for.
  15. Too many people are like, "Well Wisconsin and Iowa don't recruit all that well and they still win" -- when was the last time either of them won a championship?
  16. I have no doubt that they'll look improved over the next two weeks vs. the cupcakes. Then OU comes to town and the comedy of errors will ensue.
  17. Zac Taylor has bigger fish to fry. He's trying to win Super Bowls. Maybe once his NFL run is over he'd consider, but that likely won't be for a long time.
  18. Precisely what I mean by the power of a big name. He was able to lure the #1 recruit in the country to friggin' JACKSON STATE.
