CornHunka Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I caught Steve Sipple on ESPN 1480 going home last night and he mentioned something about the attitude of this team. He said that every time this team breaks a huddle, they say "National Championship" Sipp asked one of the players about this and the player said that they watch ESPN and whenever ESPN talks about national title contenders, they never mention Nebraska and that has to stop. The whole team is feeling slighted by the media and they have a quiet confidence that this year is going to be something special. Assuming that we take care of business against Nevada and Wake, a win on the night of Sept 15 and as they say, "it's on, baby." Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 This could be a dangerous team with that attitude. Quote Link to comment

MCAT800 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Why should they be considered as a NC contender??? Not dissing my Husks but hell 5 losses last year, with the loss of your senior QB doesn't usually equate to NC contenders does it???? Quote Link to comment
cornhuskers4ever Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Maybe one guy yells, "NATIONAL!!!", and the rest of the team yells, "CHAMPIONSHIP!!!" For me, it's totally cool that the Cornhuskers have that attitude. They're going to give it their all on every down. A team that thinks they're getting slighted comes into the game with a chip on their shoulder. Nebraska needs to take it a game at a time. 2 and 0 going against USC, and we have USC at Memorial Staduim? The fans will be intense. I can't wait to see the Big Red on both sides of the ball. Here's hoping the Defense plants players into the ground this year. GO BIG RED! Quote Link to comment

I would love nothing more than to see the Blackshirts catch a little of what Asante's got as far as attitude. We need a little swagger to help us finish games and not let up. Let's get this thing started!!! Go Big Red!!!!! Quote Link to comment

If we had 100% Zach Bowman and BJax would of came back for his Senior year, we would of been a contender. Quote Link to comment
MCAT800 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Well NC contenders don't usually come out of left field. They are the expected favorites from the experts like Herbstriet, Holtz, and Mark May ) Usually based on past seasons performance. I think we are more like a Cinderlla or sleeper story, nobody is expecting much from NU, but a real big storm may be brewing in the plains. Quote Link to comment
