I mean I am seeing posts about "welcome the the big leagues"...all this other crap. What do folks think?? the Big Ten, in my honest opinion has always, always been overrated. I hated watching the teams play over the past 20 years. But, to act like we don't belong in this league, or, we are gonna limp through is ridiculous. We have played the Big ten schools over the years, Mich. State, Iowa, Michigan, Northwestern, Minnesota and Penn State. I think we pretty much handled everyone and lost to Penn State in Happy Valley. So to sit back and act like we are going to get worked is bs. I really don't know how we are going to do against Wisconsin. Hell, I thought OU would come into Lincoln and put 50 on us, and we beat em. The big ten doesn't have the speed on defense like we do. We are definitely soft up front. Steinkuhler wears me out with his soft play. Suh made crick a better player and now we see he isn't as dominant as he should be. Oh well, it happens. Martinez is making better decisions, but he can't throw. Frazier couldn't really throw at first, and Frost, man oh man that shot putt throwing motion wore me out. And, I don't think crouch was lighting up the passing yards either. We, as fans have been spoiled. We over analyze and freak out. I remember, the administration thinking about getting rid of Osborne, I remember walking through our Big 8 schedule and then getting worked in the bowl games against better opponents. This team now is much better than any Callahan team, and we are heading in the right direction. Defense tightens up in certain areas, and we continue to get better, we will be ok. We still have to play the games. But, honestly, all these folks acting like we don't belong are in for a real treat. Ok....I am done venting....need a drink!
