I don't know. Reading thru some of the 'we suck', we're done', gloom n doom posts, I'm a bit confused. If you expected the 1995 Huskers to come trotting out on the field simply from some coaching changes, I think you were unrealistic in your expectations. I've watched a LOT of husker football since the 80's. The last 10 years have been tougher than others, BUT what I saw today made me feel like we are turning the corner toward a good team again. Think about this, NORMALLY for our FIRST game we'd be playing some lower division squad that we should EASILY crush. I can remember a certain Jackrabbit team that gave us ALL we wanted a while back. BYU is a much higher caliber team as far as 'first opponent' than we're used to. We got down, looked sorta weak heading into the half and then FINALLY had a team that was able TO adjust for 2nd half play. New system, new coaches, MUCH better opponent than normal, hell, I kinda thought we did pretty dang well. Heartbreaker end, but lady-luck is slimey skank full of disease and fake allure. We gotta clean some stuff up, get all our starters in the game and continue to improve but I see some light at the end of the tunnel.
