Q: What is the area code in Boulder? A: 303 . Q: What was the score of the 2005 game in Boulder? A: 30-3

We were playing the first USC game not to get blown out. Something that happened far too frequently under Pelini and Riley.

I would have been happy with Bill Belichick.

As a traditionalist, I like the classic jersey.

With regard to concerns if we have injuries, or certain position groups don't come together... other teams have those issues too. In the case where a team must adapt, that with the better coaching staff will suffer less.

This could be another "Boulder Area Code" game.

After the 1997 season Nebraska rolled off the greatest five year streak in the history of college football. Passing the torch to Frank Solich was not a popular move, but for the next four years the team continued to do well. The cupboard was full of talent. However in 2002 my observation was that the team talent was severely lacking from previous decades. We went 7-7 in 2002, and I was in shock because that record was deserved based on our talent. And despite a 9-3 regular season finish in 2003, that observation was still valid, and Solich was fired. Then Bill Callahan was hired, to the joy of just about nobody. He was a great recruiter, but could not coach worth a darn. Pelini was rehired, mostly based on the Alamo Bowl win, and he proved to be a poor recruiter and a poor coach. He defensive schemes were not at all appropriate for the personel we had. The regular blowouts started. And in the ultimate brain freeze moment, Mike Riley was hired. Sure I had 8-4 / 9-3 expectations for last year, and to be honest four of five lucky breaks would have gotten us there. I see 10-2 as very realistic in 2019, with the most likely defeats vs tOSU and Wisconsin. And fortunately both are home games... so who knows... last year's bad breaks to balance themselves out and bless us!

Sorry for the double post, still trying to figure the software out.Error

If anyone asks me what kind of world I want to leave for my children, it is not one where the Ohio State, Michigan, Wisconsin or Penn State dominates the conference. It is one where Iowa is our yearly b%@&h, and the previously mentioned second rate teams quake in terror of the Huskers.

Hello all... Two years ago we were a very fitting 4-8. Last year we were probably the best 4-8 team in the history of the game. Given this year's schedule, 10-2 is not that much of a stretch.
