NU#1 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 I'm not serious (at least I don't think I'm serious) but it has to somehow be historically noted that the Huskers only 2 losing seasons in the last 4 decades came in the the last 4 years under BC. Since it is now a certainty that Callahan will be gone, what will we ultimately call these past four dreadful years? "The Dark Age" "Nebraska's version of the Schnellenberger Debacle (times 4)" "B.P" - Before Pelini (not really accurate because dumb ass Pederson canned Bo after winning a bowl game) "bullsh#t Bill's Wild Ride" "Lost" "The Ex-Oakland Raider Experiment" "The Drought" "The Drift Beyond Mediocrity" Quote Link to comment
Foppa Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Sometimes ya just gotta take it like a man and accept it and move on. Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 I like the "The Drought" maybe B.B.C Before Bill Callahan and A.B.C. After Bill Callahan Quote Link to comment
DCHusker Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Have to nix BP for two reasons...we don't know if the next era involves Pelini, and if it does, B.P. are his initials, in addition to "Before Pelini," could get confusing.... I'd say we're in the thick of the "Dark Ages" Quote Link to comment
NVAHusker Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 I like NFL Experiment or "that black time" Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 how about "Then" as in "Remember son, how bad things were 'Then'. Don't take anything for granted" or--"We were always good! for 40+ years. and 'Then'. But now, 60 years since 'Then' we have been doing things our way and we've been good ever since." etc...

Sparker Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Surely we can just cover the whole thing up... never talk about again, remove every reference from any book everywhere. We can pretend these years never existed... It was like a massive daylight savings time.... we jumped forward four years because of daylight and crap. Honestly, I feel bad even saying that... just for the players, they are totally invested and have no clue what an ass BC is... I am a jerk ---------------- Now playing: Thrice - Night Diving Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Man. Husker fans sure love catch phrases. I think they are dumb Quote Link to comment

SDalum1981 Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 For posterity, it should be noted that these were the "passing years". I, for one, am glad they are about past. If you have, at minimum, a great passing quarterback, they could be good years. But.... These years should not be forgotten or ignored lest once again the coaches start to think NU needs to be a passing team. Back to time when the opponent knows we are going to run and they know there is not a thing they can do to shut the run down. Quote Link to comment
Husker'Tone Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 I, personally, am going to completely forget the past 4 seasons...years from now, as I talk about my memories of Husker football and someone asks me about this time period, I'll simply reply "I don't know what you're talking about" Quote Link to comment
