The Giants/Dodgers games are going to be epic this season. They're the two best teams in baseball.

That's a f@#*&* champ right there. 

They've set Monday as the deadline. Anything after that and it's a shortened season.

The only logical explanation I can come up with is it will be a helluva lot easier to win at USC than at OU, especially when they end up moving to the SEC. Otherwise, this is a strange decision. OU have no problem recruiting, a large and devoted fan base, supportive donors, etc. It must come down to easier competition in the Pac 12. 

This actually gives me a reason to watch the game. I was just going to DVR it and watch it later if we won, but this is something to look forward to. I know, I'm grasping at straws, but it's all I have left.

If we keep Frost we have to watch one more year of AM.  I don’t know if I can handle it.

I know this is made half-jokingly, but if Martinez is indeed our quarterback next year, I don't think I could watch any more of the games. I think our fan base is just exhausted at this point. If Frost stays, wholesale changes need to made; new QB coach, new OL coach, new special teams coach. Hell, we might even need a new OC. If we lose the remaining 2 games, I feel this program will be at a precipice. 

Ohio State will win in a blowout and here's why: talent. The gap in talent will be unlike anything we've seen this season. The difference in talent between Purdue and Ohio State is like night and day. I would be shocked if we kept it within 1 score. It would be an absolute miracle if we ended up pulling the upset, especially for an 11 am start.

However, I will be cheering on the Huskers, like I do every week. 

We should do everything in our power to get Luke Fickell; just look at what he's done in a very short time at Cincinnati. He also knows the Big Ten very well, due to his time at Ohio State. I also like Mel Tucker, though taking this job would be a lateral move for him, so I don't see that happening. 

Great! Now I won't have to make plans on going to the bar! These early kickoffs suck.

Complete horses%$t! He needs fired tonight! 

There's no benefit to firing Frost with only 3 games left in the season. Hopefully, Trev has stood up and taken notice. Hopefully, he already has a list and is making calls. If what is said is true, that Frost didn't even address the team after the game, he might have already given up; in which case, you have to fire him. But do it after the season. We're not going to a bowl game anyway; not with 6 losses, soon to be 7. 

OU by 17-24 points. If we lose by more than 24 points, a massive blowout, then I think serious questions need to be asked regarding if Frost is the right man for the job. I don't expect a win, but it can't be a Wisconsin situation under Pelini.

Best of luck to Donte! I hope he is successful and they hire him full time. He was one of the coaches during the Riley era that I thought was actually competent.

I could listen to "Lambada" a million times and never get tired of it.

Jesus Christ Almighty....I am so glad we aren't in a conference with them anymore. Texas destroys everything they touch.

When is this episode dropping?

I've got news for you, nobody takes us seriously now and haven't for the past few years.

 

That's nothing compared to what would happen if we canned Frost after the 2021 season. The s#!tstorm from ESPN and the national media would be tremendous. "Who do they think they are?" "This isn't the 90's." "Nebraska won't get any better than Frost." I guarantee you they would be saying those exact things. It would look awful for us. 

What they've done to her is criminal.

Also, we gave Frost an extension in 2019. We're tied to him until December 31, 2026. Do we really want another Pelini on our hands, paying another coach to not coach us and just to go away?

My God, that is one hell of a schedule we have. When are we ever going to catch a break?

My expectations are quite low. Going into year 4, my expectation is to go 5-7. If they've improved, they might get to 6-6, however I don't see it.

 

Frost has been a colossal failure. It's evident that he doesn't have what it takes to allow Nebraska to compete for the division, let alone the conference. 

Let's give him more than 3 years before we start calling him a "colossal failure."

Primo, you better hope Biden wins because if he doesn't, this thread is not going to age well at all. I take it you're not superstitious.

Not again...God I hope this isn't true.

The logistics are remarkable. The players having to quarantine themselves from their own families; all of the games being played in Arizona, not to mention empty stadiums.

Dodgeball is your example of an "old" movie? LOL
