Count 'Bility

As much as I want to bag Petersen, he was a d@@sh. but he sure seemed to get caught up in the higher than life expectations of this program was jumped to conclusions after a 7-7 season, the worst since teh mid-60's and a couple of semi-blowout losses in 03. We all know that Solich, with defense what was obviously back on the right track and returning experience on offense not having to learn a whole new system that they were not fit for, wouldve had the program back to where it belonged. There were a lot of bad things about the 02 team from inexpereince to injuries.

I think Tebow is a very good player and with his size and passion, he could revolutionize QB play in the NFL. BUT..... I don't think he is the same player he was before the concussion. It's obvious.

Three titles in 4 years? hmmm. Nothing Nebraska never accomplished and I mean titles won going undefeated, not losing one or two games in the procesee (LSU,and Florida twice, USC 2003), not to metion, NU was 2 plays of pisspoor officiating (one of which replay at the time wouldve overturned) and a flubug from a FIVE-PEAT. Funny how no one wants to compare to or talk about that five year run by Nebraska. That USC's twiddly 2 title (one of which was even split in the BCS system, which is just disgusting) how ever many year run atop a soft pac-10 is still the greates run ever, despite finding a way to crap their pants in an obvious gimme win every year. Now it's Florida bla bla bla.

No the rankings dont matter. but here's my opinion. It's take a winout AND a win agains Texas to get back in. Theres just a perception against Nebraska right now in polling. We're just not "pretty" enough with not enough "PR" I'm callin it now. USC, after crapping their pants against Stanford, will still be in the top 15 because, well, it's USC and Pete Carroll and Kirk Herbstreit and Musberger just quiver to their knees when the hear or say that name.

Does Mark May annoy anyone else. I swear i wish Lou Holtz would just bash him over the head with them 43 pound glasses of his. As far as USC goes, what do you think, is it possible that King Carrol maybe rated below 15, tho i guess 14.

The stupid officials of this game today need a hellofa lot worse than that.

1) The GT player on the left needs a haircut. I can't get over it. 2) Bo has already said next year's D should be better-only losing 6 players on a 25 man-two deep roster. Now that's just scary. 5 of which are starters but 2 d-backs, one linebacker, and 2 d-lineman. so the losses are evenly spread, and theooffense will be better. Hmmm. Here that Big 12?

Trouble reading? i'm afraid your'e on the wrong website, maybe try youtube. bahahaha

Is it just me or is it just really disgusting that Kansas St. is playing for a Division title as well as a bowl bid in the same late season game. Man, that is just gross. On a side not, i keep thinking about the 2003 K-State game, this should resurrect some thoughts any thought of that possibly bein in the back of Bo's mind and even Snyder's as Bill goes, "of FUEGHHH" I would love to see Bo return the favor, but it is just as much encouraging to know he has more class than that.

i laugh when i see mangino blow his top. i just envision him screaming like fat basterd from "austin powers". seriously, just picture him getting into a player's grill and shouting, "GET IN MAH BELLY!!!" and try not to laugh. Like this

The play of the defense is to me no way concerning. GIVE THESE GUYS A DAMN BREAK. 17 POINTS. sheese, i know we've become accostomed to 7 or 3 or 10, but come on, do any of you have enuff common sense to understand the significance last week's performance played today. All i saw was fatigue, physically and emotionally, combined with what i thought overall was a somewhat conservative gameplan DEFENSIVELY due to Reesings scrambling ability on top of throwing the ball to talented receivers. The D is fine, 6 more days of rest and then time to go again. The best part about it all is the offense did their part to win as well, same as last week and the week before, and they continue to build on a new identity. The penalties on KU, too bad. How many penaltied does our defense have called on them, but they find a way to play thru it. Say what you want in all negativity. W W W W W W W W W. I havent seen this brought up much, i will. Larry Asante's hit on Reesing, tho i do not argue the penalty cuz a rule is a rule, but it damn well better not bring out some suspension of some sort as the guys on tv were suggesting. I am so sick and tired of quarterbacks gettin protected by yellow hankies, if you dont wanna get hit then go play badminton damn it. IT'S FOOTBALL AND YOU'RE WEARIN PADS. If these guys are gonna go feet first, they better be able to do it with time enuff for the defender to lay off, as i thought asante was already in motion/air to make the hit when reesing went down. If this is how it is, then why dont the officials just go 100% protection and say "if you want to, just take a knee and we'll give you a five yard gain" everyone wins, qb gains his yards, and the d does not get a penalty. These damn rules are so inconsistent too, and that pisses me off the most. see the hit on Zac Robinson tonight? isnt there a helmet-helmet black and white rule? BIG 12 OFFICIALS SUCK-PLAIN AND SIMPLE

There aint gonna be any talk about Zac Lee this week. Just a handful of complete morons complaining about our horrible defense that gave up 17 points to a good offense and about our bully of a maniac coach that counterproductively yells at everyone, ruining any chance of winning and/or improving. yes you people know who you are and I am calling you out.

Scott was tremedous and very vocal. A true great Nebraskan. I'm sure he regrets goin to Stanford to begin with. Imagine him if he'd had a redshirt plus two full seasons under 100% quarterback tutiledge from Frazier, Berringer, Osborne, Gill. It very well may have made the difference in 1996 and a 4 peat-even maybe a Heisman. Regardless, Scott was great adn this whole article/writing probable speaks for 99 out of every 100 former Nebraska player/coach.

That's exactly the point I was trying to make when I started this thread. sure, ok? Cuz the o-line totally went down the toilet and accomplished absolutely nothing the rest of the game after coach Barney got his chewin. And the defense just has not shown any improvement in 1.5 years with this horrible coachin job from this angry maniac. OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEE WHAT'S GOIN ON. So far the players are reactin positively to this, and honestly, so has the press, you see today's post game press conference, i dont remember any stupid questions, and it was relatively quick, just the way Bo likes it. Leave him and the rest of the staff alone and let them continue the awesome job theyre doin.

No sh!t, McBride woulda bodyslammed Bo in his hayday. How's about George Darlington, I went to a fooball camp there once, he was an a-hole. Craig Bohl was a prick too, (tho we all know how he turned out). Just cuz The Father Tom was never seen doin this kind of stuff doesnt mean the whole staff was a bunch of quiet souls that never yelled at anyone.

You people are a bunch of babies. Get over it. Obviously his style is working. and His coachmates want to be here, (they do, I know) Some of you people just want somthin to squabble about. You could make a problem out of a million bucks, unless of course you're already some rich prissy who thinks you have it all figgered out. SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE RETURN OF OUR PROGRAM, CUZ IT IS HAPPENING RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES.

The o'line was awesome today. They took over, no ifs ands or buts about it, when they had to. Zac had sufficient time to throw the ball. Our teams get better thru the season under this staff.

We're gonna see this type of thing go on more often. 100% agree with the Watson comment, I think Bo was all over Shawn a heck of a lot more than Cotton. But you know what, he's fed up with the mistakes, stupid ones I might add, in the deep red zone, that play turned a probable touchdown into a field goal, flipped the game at that stage and kept Kansas in it. It's time for some accountability. Cotton is the position, get it fixed. According to our "grandstand coaches", Cotton and Watson are on the hot seat, and with Carl having the defense well under control, Bo is takin more of a grab of what's goin on on offense. Say what you want about Bo's "temper", "anger" whatever, these players react to it positively by fixing the problem, if not immediately. It workded with stupid mistakes on the defensive side of the ball, now he's turnin it to the problems with the offense.
