Pedro Guerrero Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 What school out of those 6 hasn’t played in a BCS Bowl or won a Conference Championship in that 4 year period? Even though Ohio State, Oklahoma, and LSU are not included in the 4 year list they have all averaged more then 9 wins in that period of time along with winning at least 1 conference championship and playing in at least 1 BCS bowl game (OSU – 3, OU – 2, LSU -1) Quote Link to comment
Rocketsocks Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 We were one second away from a BCS bowl in 2009 and one defensive implosion away in 2010. That's not the same, but it's not nothing. Quote Link to comment

OSU is 6-6 this year. You misread his post. He is saying those teams have "averaged" over 9 wins since 2008, in which case he is correct. Just add the total wins of those programs he's mentioned since 2008 and divide it by 4 to get the average. 1 Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 The averaging of wins is a decent conversation point, but let's be realistic - if Bo had a 6-win season or - God forbid - didn't make a bowl game, this place would be full of torches and pitchforks. Quote Link to comment
Not since 97 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Just remember this is playing a weak schedule in a weak conference and still getting dismantled by weak teams ( Mich, Wisky and Northwestern) How weak? I'm sure all our Bowl games will provide that information quickly. IE Wyoming Quote Link to comment

I'm sure all our Bowl games will provide that information quickly. IE Wyoming Sagarin claims our SOS is #34. Last year it was #39. We'll jump up a bit after playing South Carolina, so we can't finish with a worse SOS than last year. I don't think that lends much credence to the idea that we're playing in a weak conference. Especially when we have two BCS opponents on our schedule, from the Big Ten. Quote Link to comment

It was an obvious troll post by a known troll. "Don't feed the troll" disclaimers are commonplace on internet forums. Not sure why that bothers you. I don't point out grammar errors when people are at least trying to communicate in an intelligible manner, but happen to make a few grammar mistakes. That would be rude. My grammar is far from perfect. I post constructive stuff all the time. I achieved a HuskerBoard reputation of 500 in less than 3,000 posts. I'm a well respected member of HuskerBoard and my community. I'm extremely good looking, successful, witty, funny, and charming. I have perfect teeth, get good grades, have well over 200 Facebook friends, and I am extremely, extremely humble. I'm a lot of things, sir, but a narcissist is not one of them. 2 Quote Link to comment
