That's not true. We scheduled some tough teams but we did have to get some cupcakes because we couldn't get anyone decent to come play at nebraska because they were to scared.
Last time I checked a team consisted of player typically 18-23 years old (those are kids in my eyes).
It came down to money, and sometimes teams wouldn't be willing to put hte home and home series. Basically the come here and play, but we aren't going there to play. Now a days home and home are pretty mcuh the only way games are scheduled (yes there are exceptions).
However, at no time did a team not schedule another team because they were "scared." I'd really like to know why a team wouldn't want to play a consistantly rated top 5 team? It's a Nebraska football myth, always has been.
