Skull&Bones

In the last 6 years our trophy case has to look pretty damn barren and pathetic compared the dusty hardware sitting in there that built this program.

I understand you are making your point about Pelini specifically, but the barren trophy case has been that way longer than 6 years. The hardware isn't from 7 years ago.

Correct! Just making the point that this is Nebraska football and it's been way too long. This program has been irreverent and not worthy of a top 10 spot since Pelini has been here IMO. We were not better off before he got here but I think it's time to move on. We consistently have a tough time cracking the top 15. And that is the only thing this team is consistent at doing and choking under pressure.

I agree with what Jay Foreman wrote today. He doesn't think the problem is coaching, nor do I. http://nebraska.247s...innesota-157368

 

I agree with what he wrote also except I don't give a free pass to the coaches. Why do they play so unmotivated? Why are they so unprepared? Why do they appear weak and easy to dominate? Why do we play a gimpy QB and use a guy with his skill set as a pocket passer? How long is failure to execute an acceptable excuse?

 

You and Jay are only addressing part of the problem and it's the easiest part at that.

This! And with the current state of our program there should be a hell of a lot more to be concerned about. But our team motivation bothers me the most on both sides of the ball. One word sums up my thoughts about this team and that is "timid". I think it's time to shout the battle cry of "Restore the Order" again. In the last 6 years our trophy case has to look pretty damn barren and pathetic compared the dusty hardware sitting in there that built this program.

IIRC turf toe does not involve a "shocking" pain to the supporting toes, heard from Bo's aquarium guy that Taylor kicked a fridge post Wyoming thus his foot is broken. Makes sense if you add it up, this Hardy Boy is out, run wild with this or shut me up if I am wrong.

????

Beck and Papuchis need to get in sync. Its almost as if their units are combatting eachother. Beck is being responsible for an inexperienced and tired Defense being on the field a majority of the game.

Yes! Tired and young defense but I would like to see some leadership on the field. Just one guy trying to rally the troops and get them fired up "Carlos Polk" style. I don't care if they crawl around barking like dogs or howling like gut shot werewolves. We need a little spark on that field....someone being a general and trying to lead. It may not change the outcome of the game but at least make it appear they want to be out there.

NOBODY tells me what to do. Well except for my wife. Oh! and my boss...and...sh*t! Ok Saunders...I'll move on for now but if I smell smoke I'll be back....I'll be back damn it! And hell will be coming with me you hear?

Me too...Time to rally around Bo "F*cking" Pelini and this team. Go Huskers!!!

Bo is a walking bulls eye right now and that's not saying he didn't put the target on his own back and load the gun. The microscope was already on him by the media (antics) and antsy fans (losing big games). Keep in mind the guy is wearing a heavy "Red N" crown right now. I think his fate lies with the fan base....how loyal are we? Do with stick or run? For the players sake I hope "stick" Even if Bo is welcomed back does he or his family want to bear the burden of being the most judged and disliked guy this side of the Missouri River?

Whomever released the recording is an inside rat trying to implode this program. There was NEVER a good time for this to be released to the public. What Bo did was wrong but should've been taking care of in house behind closed doors. You don't have to like Bo or have his back...our players do and that's what matters. Life's too short to worry about yesterday let alone 2 years ago. Maybe his views have changed...A lot has changed since Oct. 8th 2011. One thing that has not changed is our players respect, loyalty and support for their head coach. When Nebraska starts winning again this will all disappear like a fart in the wind. ~ Pro Bo

I think Bo is showing some maturity by not ripping into his players after the game.......Husker fans not so much.

I concur

Throw Da Bones!!!

Great, they made him look like Gary Busey.

Funny Sh*t!!!!!

An eye for an eye,leg for a leg, arm for an arm.

Then they pay the ultimate price...a life for a life.

I was having a Monday yesterday....watched lil' Jack score that TD and it turned my day around.

Good point, Duke! Luckily, the ship was only about 1/4 Nebraska fans. The rest were people from all over the world (mostly Europe and South America), with many of them being quite attractive. And there was actually a pretty good number from the Husker contingency that were easy on the eyes as well (namely Alex Henery's wife and Matt Davison's assistant).

"ASSISTANT"

That's a sweet looking gun rawhide.

I'll let you know what I decide to get.

I am for sure going to get a Springfield though.

All the different reviews I read I don't think you can go wrong for the money.

I wonder how Larry the Cable guy would do as a head coach?

Passion from the fans is still there....just look at this board.

What concerns me is our Defense

We used to be feared and nobody liked to play Nebraska.

I used to enjoy reading the other teams quotes after they played us.

We were the most physically team on the field win or lose.

And the next morning everybody that played against us knew they just played Nebraska.

I would really like to see the Blackshirts get some swag back.

Our hardest hitting player is on the offensive side of the ball.

(Ring the Bell)

As disappointed as I am in Bo absouletly NOT!

There is nobody better than Bo available or that would leave current coaching jobs (Alabama, Oklahoma, Ohio St...etc) and come here.

As unhappy as I maybe right now I think we see what 2013 brings.

Bo needs to take a deep look at his staff around him....why all the mental mistakes and turnovers?

The blackshirts need to start creating turnovers too....I want to see an LSU style Defense on the field flying around taking heads off.

Like I said earlier this team needs to light a fire. Somebody like a Polk out there crawling around barking like a dog.

Bo has done enough that no matter how next year goes he will be safe.....no joke!

I think we cover.

 

Cover what? Cuz it isn't the spread. This team would destroy the 3 teams that beat us.

Like to see them cover your mouth, or fingers as it is. Yes, I think we cover the spread.

If Georgia plays second string we still lose but cover. If georgia play starters they will be 2 touchdowns up midway through the first quarter and not look back. It pains me to say this but expect an ass whooping. To much bigger, stronger, faster will be on the field for us to stop.

This match up is like being on the titanic except we know there's an iceberg in front of us and there's no going around it. Full steam ahead!!!!!!!

Nope!

 

Does that really matter to the point of this thread?

 

Nope!

Does your rainbow colored pony with wings matter to the point of anything?

Just asking.....

We deserve a bowl but not against a top 25 team.

I would really like to see us play South Dakota State in a bowl.

That way we could watch a well fought come from behind win and finish the season on top!

I learned that Winston Churchill was born in a ladies' room during a dance.

Because I stopped watching the game and turned it to the Biograghy Channel.

But before that I learned that our bend but don't break defense got snapped in half like a twig under sasquatches foot.

I can handle and stay calm when we lose a good game.

But we got owned!!!! And that's a tough pill to swallow.

The sun did rise this morning but the talk at the local coffee shop is did you see that game last night? Nebraska got b*tch slapped! Wow! 70pts in a championship game.

The Big 10 is the laughing stock of college football this year.

Hopefully no big 10 teams have to play an SEC, Big 12 or PAC 10 team in any of the bowl games.

When I saw this thread the first thing that came to mind......

“What’s that? Ah — Playoffs? Don’t talk about — playoffs? You kidding me? Playoffs? I just hope we can win a game! Another game. ” Jim Mora

: )

Listened to Pelini's post game. I probably will get a lot of crap for this but I think Pelini's going to grow from this experience. He get knocked on his butt, but he will get up and react in a positive fashion. They will analyse, they will teach and they will recruit. They will get better. They need to finish this season right if they can. Finish strong in recruiting and fill those holes. Next year will be a new year and DIFFERENT.

Larry the Cable Guy is that you? Cause that's funny stuff right there....I don't care who you are

Who is they? And if they is who I am thinking of they will will not Get er' done!

That was our shot to make a stand in the Big Ten. From here on out Ohio State is the Alabama of the Big 10. We will be out coached and will not be able to keep up with the talent pouring into that program.

Reality check......We will struggle with Northwestern every year. Get used to it Huska Nation.....no joke!

My day after thoughts.......

What's with the my little pony fetish on husker board?

Every time I see one of those thingy things The Doors start playing in my head.....

"Faces look ugly when you're alone

Women seem wicked when you're unwanted

Streets are uneven when you're down"

I guess I am not on here enough or maybe I am not I.M. Hipp enough to understand rainbow colored thingy things with wings.

Any who back to football.......this team comes out every game like they just woke up from a nap.

Don't care if we are a 10 win team we can't win the big games.

The only thing we are consistent at doing over the last few years is choking when it comes to the big games.

Big 12 championship game, Big 10 championship game, South Carolina, Texas, Ohio State 2012 (crushed!)....the list goes on.

At the end of the day we are a 10 win team but the Wisconsin Badgers are the 2012 BIG TEN CHAMP'S

This loss was a blessing in disguise..IMO.. We would've got steam rolled by Stanford. And anybody that doesn't think so is living in a my little pony fantasy land.

Another season in the books and it was fun (at times) The only thing I will remember about this season is TO saying farewell and the heart of a lion Rex Burkhead. He was one special kid and will be missed greatly from this team.

Overall It just was not our year boys....neither was last year, or the time before that, or the time before that, or the time before that time. But I am confident if we stay the course and keep doing exactly what we are doing that we will stay consistent and have another 10 win season next year. Go Huskers!!!!!!!!!!!
