CheeseHusker Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 If for no other reason, than the fact we have all been spared. Spared days and weeks full of sappy, sanctimonious crap. "Oh, we did it for Joe!" "Oh, what an emotional win". "Oh, JoePa's so great, he's just misunderstood". Quote Link to comment
hack Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 ditto. but i wanted the shutout, tho. Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 No joke, feels really good to walk out of Happy Valley with a W. It would've been an absolute circus on ESPN if PSU pulled off the win. Thank you football gods. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Yep. The minute I heard that they wanted to walk the game ball to his house... I wanted Nebraska to win more than anything. Quote Link to comment

I agree but now we get to hear the media spin the PSU loss into how "the team wasn't focused", "the players are heartbroken", "how will they respond against (team)?" Quote Link to comment

They can say that, but they'd be utterly incorrect. They were pretty focused in that second half. Quote Link to comment
Norhusker Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 So happy we won. I thought we were going to blow it at the end. Nice stop by the defense. Too bad Iowa lost as our fate is still controlled by others......As usual. Quote Link to comment

Treand3 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 At the end of the day our team logged another W for our record, so no one will look back and say "We should have won that one." IMO Quote Link to comment

Too bad Iowa lost as our fate is still controlled by others......As usual. I know, if their tight end wouldn't have fumbled the ball with 3 minutes left there was a slim chance Iowa makes that a game. Come on Indiana and Northwestern!!! Quote Link to comment
Army Husker Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I would like to see an article that says how Nebraska went in there, against a team with a focus and purpose, and won despite the usual mistakes that we are always good for... Quote Link to comment

I can think of one who'll be spewing exactly that drivel. Thank goodness they won this game. It would have been a VERY long week at work if they didn't. Quote Link to comment
Eric the Red Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 No joke, feels really good to walk out of Happy Valley with a W. It would've been an absolute circus on ESPN if PSU pulled off the win. Thank you football gods. Great win for the Huskers. The PSU defense was very good this year. offense figured out a way to at least slow down the front 4 at times to gain some yards. ...and Martinez, behind Wilson is the best QB in the Big 10 Quote Link to comment

Consistency is the key with this team. Quote Link to comment
