You missed my point. I was trying to sound like a jackass. Looks like I succeeded.
My main point was that it's not 94, 95 or even 97 anymore. No matter how much people want it to be or how much pleasure people get out of comparing every facet of recent husker teams to them, it's dumb, serve's no purpose other than fodder.
Moreoever, assuming those tactics will work in 2006 is fundamentally flawed. Your opponents week in and week out aren't your push overs like the Kansas's and the Iowa State's of the 90's were
Moreover again, the Nebraska coachs have been coaching for longer than some of us have been breathing. You ever hear any of em, especially Elmo, talk about defense. If you have a chance, get ready for an intense ride.
Coz definitely brings a different defense to the table, one focused on linebacker play. They are really the stars of this defense.
Am I saying it's good and awesome and is the best defense ever? No, I'm not saying that. My point is that most of the time we as fans oversimplify everything. "If only they did this instead of that, because I saw it from my couch." Never really bought into that.
Totally agree I hate when people gauge there expectations on Teams that were some of the best in CFB history. I want these kids just to play their collective arses off every game with the talent we have now and with the coaches good things will happen.
