CoachKevin Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I thought the reason for a change of Coaching staff was to be able to compete on the National level and not fall in to Mediocracy. 4 Years later and now Husker fans are posting that the USC game doesn't matter because it isn't a Big 12 Game. One poster said the Goal was to win the North and and "hopefully" finished ranked. Hopefully? Since when does Nebraska just hope to be ranked? When did it become OK to not be Ranked? USC is a HUGE Game for this Team and the direction of Nebraska Football. #1 Team in the Nation doesn't come in to your Stadium every year. If you want to compete on the National level and be take seriously, you must be able compete with a USC. You must understand that these games are what seperates the Top programs from Mediocracy. Conceding 6 days before a game is a great strategy for failure. Quote Link to comment
huskerdude171 Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Too bad that we will probably lose. Quote Link to comment
huskerdavo Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I agree throw the playbook, the trick plays and even the effin' cheerleaders at USC. Win at all cost! If it means getting a player ejected for putting a late hit on Booty to end his night in Lincoln you do it. Kill em' all and let SP sort em out! Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Nebraska hasn't won over 800 games by conceding to anyone. Time to raise the bar again! Quote Link to comment

We're making progress every year though. Quote Link to comment

Wharf Rat Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Conceding 6 days before a game is a great strategy for failure. Hmm, I sincerely hope what a few wacko fans on an internet forum think doesn't have an effect on the success or failure of the team. BTW, I hope we win the Big XII North AND end up ranked, preferably in the top 20. That is something that hasn't happened for a long time and would at least be a step in the right direction. Anything beyond that would be icing on the cake. It would be great to see, I hope it happens and will cheer all the way but I certainly don't EXPECT it to happen. Too many years of conditioning I guess. Quote Link to comment
captain obvious Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I believe it's MEDIOCRITY that our program is wallowing in. MEDIOCRACY probably wouldn't even earn you Scrabble points. Quote Link to comment

Conceding 6 days before a game is a great strategy for failure. good thought. If i had to pick in winning the Big 12, and beating USC, i would take big 12 though. but ONLY because beating usc and losing the big 12 (north) would look very bad for us, might as well take away the fact that we beat usc. So if we are going to beat USC, we better at least get to the Championship game or else i think the credibility will be lost. thats probably what alot of these posts mean Quote Link to comment
Zaimejs Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 MEDIAOCRACY is an interesting term though and I hope I've coined it. The nation as it stands ruled by the media. Control of information is what makes us choose the way we choose, and therefore we have become a MEDIAOCRACY! Whooot! Go Huskers!!! Quote Link to comment
BigWillie Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 This guy must be taking 1-2 posters and putting it as a whole. I've seen the majority of our posters who have complained about beating the defending ACC champs on the road, simply because we didn't do it soundly. To me, it sounds like our expectations are raising, if anything. Quote Link to comment
