The Dude

Would you want to be? Raiola nearly got him killed last season . . .

That's game.

THROW THE MUTHERFOCKING BONES!!!

Why do they replay obvious calls???

Classic Tom Osborne counter run!

It's crazy how much the defense has improved since Chinander FINALLY got fired! Remember how fervently this board defended that dweeb!

Took 1 game for him to become the face of college football. At least he has allowed NU to be momentarily relevant.

Crippling mistake as soon as we get anything going. You've seen it before, you know what it looks like.

I've never seen this movie before!

Sims would probabaly be a Heisman candidate if he played for Kansas State lol. There is a correct way to use thr type of QBs Nebraska recruits. We just refuse to use them correctly.

RUN THE DADGUMMED BALL

Nebraska's defense might be legit!

Maybe Raiola still disagrees with his OC's philosophy, or whatever the excuse was.

Grounding...

Will be interesting to see if Sims is held to the same standard as Grant. He ought to be.

Carbon copy of Martinez.

Wondering how badly Rhule wants to start playing the young guys. That's his whole thing.

Blitz Sanders all day. A 15 yard roughing the passer is better than a 65 yard TD.

If we can conclude TCU isn't the same team as last year then we can also conclude Colorado isn't the same team as last year. One is as much of a snap judgment as the other. You're trying to have it both ways by talking yourself in circles. To be fair, I declared all that about Sanders, and Nebraska snubbing him, long before he ever coached a game at Colorado. Now I'm just saying I told you so. Nothing would please me more than for Rhule to prove me wrong in a few days. There's no reason at all Nebraska's turnaround should take longer than Colorado's. Sanders took over a worse team than Rhule did. If you look at what Colorado was last year, and look at their one win this year, there's no question at all they've turned things around to some degree. They broke what? More than a dozen school records already? First road win against a ranked opponent in a couple decades? To pretend we can't learn anything from an amazing turnaround like that is willful ignorance.

Right, except when you're making snap judgments about TCU after 1 week of football.

It's more about first downs and time of possession than it is yards. To beat Colorado we'll need to keep their NFL QB and WRs on the sidelines as long as possible.

I don't suspect anything is complete, but it has been a dramatic turnaround for Colorado thus far. There's no reason that much can't be gleaned from one game.

Okay, it's a middling program whose playoff run doesn't count for anything. I'm perfectly willing to let you have it your way. It just means next week we'll either be winning or losing against a team that's also not very good. So if we win, it's not a very good win. If we lose, it's a bad loss.

Their defense was bad last year. They still beat the best the Big Ten had to offer in the playoffs. It's a good program, and the rapid turnaround at Colorado is beyond impressive.
