For those who like the Big Ten, it’s great that you have that feeling. No one should be trying to step on that. But others have a different perspective about it. That fact that this issue keeps coming up proves that.

Most Husker fans understand and respect the decision to leave the Big Texas Conference. They honestly left Nebraska little other choice if the Big Red were to keep their pride and self-respect. But given that, this doesn’t automatically mean that Nebraska is a good fit in the Big Fourteen.

Some are speaking up. Others are afraid to say... those who long for the “good old days” of the Big 8 (not Big 12) really are saying they miss feeling at home in a conference that they fit into. Nebraska does not fit with those Rust Belt schools and the East Coast emphasis of bringing in those addition Eastern big city-oriented schools. This is not a “get off my lawn” fondness for the past. This is simply recognizing a fit that is less than ideal.

Nebraska has little choice but to stay where they are right now. But sooner or later, there will be more realignment in major college ball. When that happens, Nebraska needs to get away from a conference that will never accept them as an equal (does that sound familiar?) and get back to the feeling of those great Big 8 matches that are remembered so fondly. Leave Ohio and Michigan and Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and New Jersey and Maryland to themselves. If the money is right, we’d see how fast somebody might jump to a new conference home.

Until then, get to love Interstate 80.

Very well stated good sir.

EDIT good Lord GSG you read my mind! 

More abuse

Could you more blatantly announce that you're a former banned member?

 

These people are so predictable.

More abuse, I can't be a long time concerned lurker requesting we return to our roots. Since my opinion is different than yours you have since called for me to be banned, called me not a husker fan, now you have said I'm a former banned member.  Edit add in- Now he has called for anyone who's opinion is different than his to be bombarded into submission by gif bombs @DavidMax. Why can't you just discuss the topic which is my concern the big 10 has an agenda against us and it would be in our best interest to return to the big 12?  I'm not sure why you have to add the rest. Clear abuse

This has to be a joke right?

Why is it a joke?? Lol you really have that much respect for the big 10? REALLY? Really?

Well, obviously that was a lie.

Did I ever log out?

You didn't have to, it comes with the desire to go back to that s#!t league.  You can put lipstick on it by saying it's about a Texas recruitment base, but it's really about an easier path and a bunch of BS nostalgia that none of those teams give a damn about.  They don't want us back anyways..

Lol but I mean that's literally not what I said and what my point is .. literally no one said anything about an easier schedule. Maybe someone else did in a different thread but not in here. In my opinion a big 12 schedule would be far more difficult and far more interesting than playing the power houses of Illinois northwestern Indiana Minnesota and Maryland

When's the last time you saw a Husker fan call us the "Corn Huskers" like he does in the poll?

 

 

HuckFuskers, is this you?

 

I live in Harvard bud, feel free to stop by we will have a beer and a nice chat. Continue your streak of abuse

It's only abuse if your opinion is based off factual evidence and doesn't agree with the preconceived ideas the poster has. 

It's absolute abuse I am met with insult and 3 requests to ban simply because I have a different opinion than him. I read his post history he also has the same response to anything conservative clearly. David it's time to take action on these guys.

How many schools actually want to be in the Big12? When conference realignment talk happens, it isn't like big time schools are lining up to join that conference. You usually hear about schools exploring other options. I guess there are smaller schools wanting in a P5 conference that would jump at the chance. I understand the tradition but I find it hard to bring up tradition when talking about the current iteration of the Big12 conference. 

Still waiting on realignment

Just now, hskrfan4life said:

Why would we listen to you if you don't even follow up on your own statements. I'm still waiting for you to not log back on.

Why are you getting so defensive because I have a different view point than the veryyyy toxic establishment here. Can't wait for David to clean this place up. Didn't think you boys would handle the pop up ADS

This is spot on. That conference isn't adding marquee teams anytime soon, and they're more likely to lose their good teams than add new, good teams.

 

Nebraska is NEVER going back to that conference, and that's fantastic. We are 1,000% better off in the Big Ten. It feels like home to a lot of Nebraska fans already. I love playing every team in the Big Ten West, and there hasn't been one time I've thought, "Gosh, I wish we could play Kansas State again."  That program and its fans are trash, and we are far better off without them. They add nothing to our experience.

 

 

I disagree

Some people just want an easy path to an undefeated record.  The Big 12 is a Group of 5 conference + OU and Texas.

It has nothing to do with an easy schedule it has to do with tapping into the Texas population and having a pipeline to the South in general. Did I say anything about an easy record? Did anyone??

I am sort of an outsider here, but what is with the posts lately? The board is getting bombarded with nonsensical topics. It doesn’t seem like Nebraska fans are doing this.

Nonsense?? The stats are there- oh look Davis is suspended for a game hmm weird

The amount of tin foil hat threads to emerge after the start we've had this year is kind of funny.  

 

 

 

 

Not really kid, this really has nothing to do with the blow out loss, we ve had this type of year since 10'

What about Wisconsin? They're no blue blood, they have zero national championships in football. That must be the team you actually root for. 

It would appear my name includes Husker and I am posting my concerns for our future success in relation to our conference on a website named huskerboard. You caught me big badger fan.  lol I do enjoy your blue blood theory.  You're right, everyone respects us for being a blue blood. How foolish of me- we are the West's bell cow for that 1997 national title still nice and fresh in everyone's mind

They must not follow football then. 

What don't you get, they were 8-9 years old, they don't remember the superiority of Big12 football and I feel sorry they have to grow up with this nightmare we call the big10 idk what else do you want me to say

Yeah it's definitely in the big10s interest to screw over the only traditional power in the western division. I'm sure its great for ratings when northwestern and there dedicated dozens of fans win the division. They even went as far as to push us as the favorite in the west in the off season not out of hope that Nebraska would finally rise to the occasion but to laugh when it falls. 

I love how you completely skip Wisconsin.  Frost said he has the evidence the Big 10 isn't calling games fair. Listen for yourself.

15 minutes ago, I am I said:

When I saw the starting lineup for tUSO offense I noticed the line was from 5 different states (but not Ohio). I commented to my brother they recruit nationally. Get who they want. 

 

Then I saw our defense lineup and noticed we do too. So we came to the conclusion that both recruit and get who we get but tOSU, under Meyer at least, get the 4-5*. We the 3’s

 

we recruit nationally, have to!! Guys like Benhart and Noa are changing our narrative. We’re who we want too and they are beginning to, at least on paper and film, can be good players. 

I agree to a point. But let's face some facts - the population has shifted south out of the rust belt.  It would be wise to have access to this resource.  It is fair to assume a recruiting advantage when you play in said south and have relative easy travel geographically there i.g Texas.

Money doesn't bring happiness. We have one but not the other. I think we're at a geographical disadvantage in recruiting and also the history we had with those Big XII schools will never be like that in the B1G. 

 

Most people will simply vote no because of their hatred for Texas, and the greener pastures we've received in the B1G.

Exactly.

1. Ban this stooge.

 

2. F-Bomb the Big 8/Big XII and all that heinous stench that goes with it.

 

3. No school that has left the stank of Texas has wanted to come back. Not their old SWC brethren nor any of us Big 8/Big XII alumnae that left for better pastures. You can ask Arkansas, Missouri, Colorado, Houston, or any of the rest who have left the shadow of Texas BS - do you want to go back? Without exception they will all say no. God, no.

 

4. Ban this stooge.

 

5. Don't make me post the articles where the ADs from our former Big 8 "brothers" admit to screwing Nebraska over again. For the umpteenth time. F those guys and all that goes with them.

 

6. Ban this stooge.

 

7. (space reserved for things I would say that would get me banned if I didn't have some self-control)

@DAVIDMAX right here^^^. I simply suggest the university transition us back to the Big12 to tap us back into the southern population specifically Texas and this guy, who has been abusing posters for a decade, responds like this. It is the plea of everyone please, just ban these guys this is the time to move huskerboard forward. Thank you.

Not sure how many 10 year olds roam this particular message board.

I'm not sure what your point is here? I regularly talk to college freshman males, former Nebraska high School football players who don't remember us being in the Big 12.

I mean after the next conference realignment there's a good chance the Big 12 doesn't exist as it is now, so no. 

Still waiting
