Meh....
By the way, feel free to name another team in the north to know, as you put it...true greatness.....I direct you to your empty trophy case to try and refute that.
As for this year, you may have scoreboard, but we have....
-improvement as 2008 went on
-tradition
-a college football atmosphere that is better when our University is successful
-the potential for a 9 win season that feels good for the first time in awhile
-a history of greatness, not some great years behind two great Qb's
But hey its all good. At least Columbia isn't an armpit......
You're right, it's not anywhere near as bad as Stincoln...
I have an idea. On December 6th, you can go to Lincoln and stare at the trophy case for three or four hours. It seems to be at the center of the Husker universe, the floating piece of timber you cling to as you drift in a sea of irrelevance.
Call me crazy, but I always thought the action was on the field. Anyway, while you're at it you might also want to polish that most recent crystal football - it has 11 years worth of dust on it.
I on the other hand will don my black and gold, go to Arrowhead and yell like a maniac for my team as they take the field to hopefully secure a BCS bid. Win or lose, I think I'll have the better time.
