We'll Know We're Officially Back When . . .


Recommended Posts

We'll know we are officially back when we regularly start blowing the Northwesterns of the world out. I don't like how Boise State plays a wimpy schedule, but, I"ll say this for them, they always destroy teams that they are supposed to beat. Once we start doing likewise then we'll be back (that, and if we start beating top 5 teams!).

We'll know we're back when we first & foremost stop losing to teams at home - ranked or unranked. Period!

 

Losing to unranked teams every year AT HOME is beyond anything I could have imagined when Bo was hired. I thought right off the bat we'd be back to at least "average" by NU standards. Going into year 4 and still losing to bad unranked teams at home is 1 of the main reasons I'm off the Bo bandwagon. I can't believe how easy the media is on Bo after a loss that pretty much kicks NU out of the BCS and into a 3rd rate bowl.

 

And as you can see, all the KA drinkers have hunkered down for the inevitable 4-loss era..... where every year will be compared to how it took TO 22 years to win an NC. It's basically a defeatest defense mechanism that kicks in when you know you're out of options. Well, IMO we're NOT out of options: Lose to another unranked team or no BCS in 2012 and Bo should be gone. NU can do better.

 

You do realize what happened when we fired a coach who was actually winning football games, do you? At least Bo beats top 10 teams, unlike Clownahan. Some people just need to get some perspective

Let's just erase Cally from the books - he was a mistake, so lets not always bring him into a conversation about Bo's shortcomings. If that's a defense mechanism to prop up a weak argument, then that's your problem.

 

If you're referring to Solich..... sigh........ in that smoke & mirrors 9-3 season we got taken out behind the woodshed by the 3 decent teams we played. The games weren't even close. Sheesh! "Some people just need to get some perspective"
