Hypothetical Scenario

Recommended Posts



What if Nebraska beat USC by 80-0 and Texas by 90-0 and Oklahoma by 100-0 and LSU by 110-0 in the national championship game???

 

And everyone else they beat by at least 120-0??

 

Do you think Nebraska would win the national championship, and all the good players will want to come to Lincoln, and maybe Nebraska would win 147 games in a row??? And nobody ever again would dare suggest that Nebraska wasn't the best football team in all of recorded history???

 

Something to think about!!!

 

i don't know that team might still get compared to the michigan teams of 1901-1905. lol maybe oklahoma of the 50's. you know mark may would find a way to downgrade a nebraska team that did the above.

Something to think about while playing NCAA Football on Xbox or Playstation.

Okay, this is not meant to be a prediction, but I was just sitting here and the thought occured to me, so I'll open it up for discussion.

 

–––

Saturday, Sept. 15: The night settles in with a chill in the air. Fall is here. The Trojans and the Huskers shake hands, exchange complimentary words, and return to the locker room. One team prepares to celebrate, the others prepare for a quiet ride home.

 

Final Score: Nebraska 45, USC 14.

 

The number one team in the nation was obliterated tonight by Nebraska's seemingly underranked defense. The blacksirts tallied up 4 sacks, 2 INTs and 1 FF. Booty was forced to scramble from the pocket all night, but was met with a variety of disguised outise blitzes. The safeties truly stepped up this evening, leaving the former Heisman hopeful stunned and dismayed, and with very few options. He completed a mere 13 of 26 passes. And what's worse, their plethora of touted running backs did little to assuage the agony of an inconsistent passing game, amassing a paltry 126 yards.

 

With their murderous road schedule and the dangers facing them with the LSU Tigers on the prowl if they yet manage to climb into the BCS picture, SC faithful have to be wondering whether or not the future of this season is permenantly stained red.

 

In any case, the question on everyone's mind this evening is where, exactly, did this Husker team come from? Sam Keller, touted transfer from ASU, caught fire midway through the first quarter. After a turnover was placed in his steady hands, he led Bill Callahan's west coast offense on a snappy drive that visibly sucked the will from the Trojan's veteran defense. Marlon Lucky broke a thirty-five yard run on the second play, and the succeeding passes topped off by a three yard smash from freshmen Quentin Castille put the Husker's name on the board and the stadium erupted into a frenzy that didn't die off until the waning seconds of the 4th.

 

Drive after drive the thick Nebraskan front opened holes large and small. It became clear late in the 2nd that Pete Carroll's D-line were not expecting this kind of effort. Fans were beginning to wonder if Lucky and Co. had been possessed with the spirit of ye olden Nebraska. But––and here's the scary part––the passing game was every bit as effective.

 

One thing is for sure: if the Big Red keep up this pace, we've good reason to believe that Callahan will be marching toward and possibly through the South team that shows on December 1st. Rejoice, Husker Nation, after tonight the world remembers your name.

 

––––

 

What do you think the reaction would be if such a story broke on Sunday morning? What would it mean for the program, Callahan, recruiting, etc.? If Nebraska won such a victory, is it safe to assume that a NC might be a very real possibility in our near future? And what about the following weeks at Ball St. and ISU?

 

Again, NOT a prediction, although wouldn't it be nice. :corndance

 

:bonez And USC must be razed to the ground. :bonez

 

Ever think about writing novels? :lol: I would probably do something crazy saturday night if that happened... like end up getting myself killed...
