Ya Duke went 0-11, 0-11, 2-10, 4-8, 2-9, 1-10, 0-12, 1-10 in that span. Disgusting.

I figured since the Frost to NU conversations are about to wrap up. I figured I would update my spreadsheet that keeps track of wins by P5 schools since the regular season is over. I'll update again after bowl season but because most of the games are done, I thought well WTH.

1. Oklahoma - 194

2. Ohio State - 179

3. LSU - 177

4. Georgia - 173

t5. Virginia Tech - 169

t5. TCU* - 169 (In Mtn West till 2011)

t5. Wisconsin - 169

8. Oregon - 167

9. Clemson - 166

10. Texas - 162

t11. Florida - 160

t11. USC - 160

13. Auburn - 158

14. FSU - 156

15. Alabama - 155

t16. Louisville - 154

t16. Miami - 154

18. Utah* - 151

19. Nebraska - 150

20. West Virginia - 148

21. Michigan - 147

22. Oklahoma St - 144

23. Penn St - 143

24. Iowa - 141

25. Notre Dame - 138

Bottom 5

Illinois - 81

Vandy - 78

Indiana - 75

Kansas - 72

Duke - 68

I also thought it was interesting that Purdue will be trying for their 100th in their bowl game. Currently sit at 99.

I really think Gebbia would be a great fit. Yes you want to be able to run the ball with the QB but otherwise the only other realistic look is to pull a kid in this years class. Or go get Terry Wilson.

Crazy thing was that Wilson being committed to NU at one time already shows there was some interest. Then Frost is the one who flipped him to Oregon. Feels like Wilson would be a realistic target.

The other one would be Travis Jonsen...he just left Oregon and was a 4 star recruit coming in. Went by the name Travis Waller at the time of his recruitment.

Bigger board meltdown: Another year for Riley or Frost taking the Florida job?

I honestly could see both happening. That's what's sad.

Gameday pushing the SEC agenda that Frost should go to Gainesville 

This is what pisses me off. Earlier in the year KH kept saying Frost to Lincoln needed to happen!

I hate the SEC!

As I sit here and try to type out a sane response I find my mind going to the area of "WTF??!?!?!"

Mike Riley.....gosh I hate watching NU football since you been here but dangit you are a classy dude. It's too bad it didn't work out. You may not have won enough games but you're better that Bo Peep in my book. BP can go F^$% off!

Everyone go to bed. It'll come tomorrow. At least the 1st half of our good news.

Pursuit of a national championship will eventually lead to Scott Frost's exit at UCF

 

 

Larry and Carol do not live in Wood River. I was there for 6 years from 2010-2016 and I've never seen or heard of them being there while I was there. Unless they moved back. I could be wrong though.

This was a terrible attempt at a Bo Pelini apologist post.

F&$% that guy. I can't stand Bo Pelini and the way he acts like a crybaby fool every flipping game.

Well they ran the ball 46% of the time this year. For a whopping 3.5 yards per carry.

No diversified running game. Just the same play, over and over and over, with lineman that don't know how to run block. I swear Cav only works on pass blocking with these kids. 

Tre Bryant didn't play against the BigTen defenses. While it's still crazy. Ozigbo could have rush for that yardage against Arky St and Oregon.

I had a guy up in Oregon just text me saying that Chip is going to meet with Oregon, because Taggart is being linked to the Ole Miss job.

I don't even know what to think anymore.

I would just say, Frost has relationships with people in Nebraska to this day. The obvious one being TO, but he knows the people in this state and at the University. It's funny to think about how this stuff gets around, but when you think where the program is you can't blame people being excited about a little good news.

There are people that went to his wedding (or were in it, can't really remember) that still live around Wood River. Former classmates. One of the kids I coached there showed me all of the pictures. Looked like a good time. 

Actually was fortunate enough to have a conversation with Frost at the CU game in 2013 while he was at Oregon. Talked about how I was at Wood River at the time and he said that he saw we had gotten beat the night before. I thought it was cool that he took the time to continue to follow how Wood River does. It was a pleasure to talk to him.

I wish FLorida would just make an announcement so I would feel better in all of this.

To add to that, apparently Marcus Mariota thinks Frost is headed to Lincoln.

Is this sarcastic?

If we get Scott Frost, will it feel as good as any win we've had in let's say 10 years?

 

If we don't get Scott Frost, where does that rank in losses we've had?

CU 2001 - worst loss I've ever seen and the biggest disappointment.

VT 2009 

UT 2009

I rank all 3 of these as the same. 

I was more disappointed about the 2003 win vs Penn State than I was about a whole lot of recent NU losses, but complete apathy set in for me after Pelini's tirade at TAMU, and his actions on the sideline every time after that made me completely despise him and his teams. The hiring of Mike Riley made it even worse for me.

Frost is my cure. 

...in the next two weeks vs Temple or USF...

Which HB poster (or posters) is most likely to go all skeptical and lobby that NU needs to look elsewhere? (I didn't want make separate SF thread but didn't want to hijack the main one)

Nominate below!

I've never thought it was impossible that Frost would stay at UCF for another year, but the renegotiation of his salary would be interesting to say the least. If UCF dramatically upped Scott's salary, wouldn't they want a significant increase in his buyout? Frost is certainly holding some great cards in this entire situation.

This is the kind of thing that bothers me. If in 2012 in an interview, he said NU was his dream job...if that's the case, why take more money to eliminate funding toward assistants he wants.

He doesn't seem like that kind of guy to me.

CPT, so if Frost comes to Nebraska, does this do some weird spell on you intertwining Nebraska and Oregon into 1 and make you become a full-fledged Husker fan?

Frost is my numero uno Husker. I will still be rooting for the Ducks..but he would be the cure for my apathy. I would be completely invested. 

Best TE in history of CFB. No other TE can say that. Correct?

I was just telling my buddy over the phone that at the beginning of the year I was skeptical of this dude. Yea he coached ND's defense when they played for a national championship. Who did they play? No one. He was terrible at UCONN and there were people that were stoked for him.

I could see the excitement given that Banker was just awful too. However, with the change to a passive 3-4, and all that. Just bad bad timing for Riley. 

Seriously could be 2-7 right now headed to 2-8. 

Arkansas St and Purdue both deserved to win those games...

I'd imagine Frost would keep Parella wouldn't he? 

OBrien looks like he doesn’t even want to be out there.

Well you see, they want a splash hire. Someone who is........Nick Saban.

Chip would be a great get if NU can't get Frost. Fans won't care about the alienation. Boosters might, but why? After all this time...no one in Nebraska cares about anything except being competitive and relevant. NU program is the state's life. Nebraska has literally NOTHING else but Nebraska football. 

College World Series I guess....but that's not something people hold on to like NU football
