I did not notice this last night.  It is disappointing that our guys would behave that way.  Thoughts?

Pretty poor.  Be better.

It's disappointing that Ferentz sent out the SWAT team to guard the Hawkeye logo so Nebraska couldn't pray at midfield in the pre-pregame.

 

Everyone needs to stop being so soft.

This was partly discussed in another thread.

 

horrendous look. They, and by extension this program, looks like chumps. It’s arrogant behavior displayed by a bunch of players who have accomplished absolutely nothing.  Nothing like providing additional bulletin board material to a program who has had our number for 10 years now.

 

its players and behavior like this that makes me feel embarrassed waking up today. Can’t make fundamental plays, can’t finish games, mentally weak and they act like pompous a$$h@!es.  
 

Very little to be happy about today with Nebraska football

Eh, I’m tired of this pregame prayer at midfield move causing issues at all these different away fields. For a team that can’t help itself from s#!tting its own pants on a near weekly basis, perhaps we shouldn’t be causing additional off the field drama for no reason and just focus on winning a game, for once

Rhule claims to want to change the culture and instead he is making it worse.  This is trending all over social media and is a HUGE black eye for Rhule's program.  I don't care if the other team blocked our players from praying in a certain part of the field. It's pathetic to teach young men not to shake hands and only gives the opposition ammunition.  If Rhule is serious about changing the culture, he should force these players to sit out the bowl game and I don't care if they are seniors or not.

This is example 912,471 that everyone online needs to be outraged at all times.

Glad you know how to use a smiley face.  That explains who has been smiley face happy lately!

It's not the fact that they didn't shake hands,  it's the fact that they sh!+ the bed after doing so.  Do that and win 28-0? Love it.  Do it and piss yourself? Clown show.  It's a rivalry, they blow kisses and do similar stuff, no big deal.

 

The point is you better cash the check you write and Nebraska can't do that.

This.  
 

Find some place else to pray.  It’s continues to create drama.

Only on this one post. Is it a great look absolutely not, but to call for them to take themselves out of their first bowl game since 2016 is just silly

[Red Five]

Hell if not shaking hands motivates our defense to give up only 5 first downs, 1.9 yards/carry, and 165 yards all game I hope we never shake hands again at the coinflip.

Hey if Rhule does not care about the culture, he can go ahead and let them play.  All I am saying is that its a really low point for the program when our players refuse to shake the oppositions hands.  It's childish and immature and may help explain why this team is struggling to win close games.

Just shake hands like a normal person.  
 

NU choked and lost the game.   If the team is gonna try the tough guy look and not shake hands, you better win the game or else you just look like a bunch of chump babies who deserved to get mocked by Iowa players.
