StPaulHusker Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Criticize the defense or offense all you want. I don't care. I will take 12 one point wins a year over one 30 point loss a year. I'm proud of the Huskers on the road today. Way to come back!!!! Quote Link to comment
huskerjch Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 A win is a win.....just like Bo said good for tv bad for the heart.....hell yeah baby we are not national title contenders who cares what the score is as long as its in our favor Quote Link to comment
BartonHusker Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 With this team I agree, just take a win no matter how much it is by. If we end up the season with just 2-3 losses and most of the games were close, so be it. At least that will have proved this team hanged tough and had heart. We have the talent but we just seem to be lacking in discipline of some sorts. Quote Link to comment

I'm proud of the Huskers on the road today. Way to come back!!!! What about 1 point wins over teams you should beat by 30 and at least two 30 point losses a year? That's where we are at now. Your statement is a far off land from reality. Winning 12 games by one point would mean we are able to win games against tough opponents in primetime when it counts. I would take that in a heartbeat. However, we routinely get dump trucked in those spots while leaving a giant sh!t stain on the field. 4 Quote Link to comment
huskerenner Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Its hard to accept one point wins,after blowing out opponents for decades.Times change,but if you are a Husker fan,act like one.Support the team. Quote Link to comment

Northwestern is a decent team with a pretty good offense. We were playing at their house, even though it appeared that there were way more Husker fans there. I agree that we should have won by more than just one, but turnovers killed us. There's no way that we should have won by 30. Quote Link to comment

But the rountiness by which this team plays down to opponents over the last 5 years is disgusting. Quote Link to comment

That's just silly, because there are quite a few who post on Huskerboard that think if we win its because the other team sucked. If we lose, it's against a team that we should have beat. It's a no win situation for some fans. Quote Link to comment
JPHUSKER89 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Nothing about NW was impressive. I'm sorry. They lived and died by designed runs and the deep ball. However, when we cough the ball up 3 times in our territory, it makes a mediocre team look great. Please stop kidding yourself about NW. The only thing that separates them from Wisconsin was the color of their jerseys. 2 mediocre teams that we squeaked by because we can't take care of the ball. 1 Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I agree with that, JP. Our Huskers are a far better team than we give ourselves credit for, and it stinks that they keep coming out flat enough to not show it on the scoreboard. Hopefully everything is put together for MICH though. Quote Link to comment

Hopefully everything is put together for MICH though. Â I'm happy someone agrees. I know we are better than this. I'll be a little arrogant in saying NW never had a shot in this game. They are an extremely over touted team with one of the weakest conference schedules. Yet NU will keep a team in the game by over stupid play with penalties and bad turnovers. A mediocre team with a Mobile QB. Oh and hopefully the naysayers will see that we also shut down one of the most dynamic players in the whole conference. Quote Link to comment
HuskerThor Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 And you watch, if we win against Mich. in ANY manner other than a blow from start to finish, some on here will not be happy. 1 Quote Link to comment
Hooked on Huskers Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 minus turnovers and dumb penalties, Huskers won by at least 3 touchdowns. Â Total Yards: NU - 545 NW - 300 (as usual, zero turnovers) Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 The sloppy play that leads to narrow wins against the likes of Wisconsin and Northwestern (and a narrow loss to UCLA) leads to blowout losses to the likes of Ohio State and Michigan. Â The frustrating part is we have the talent to beat the Ohio States and Michigans of the world, we're just far too undisciplined to do so. The only thing were consistent in doing is getting in our own way. Â At least we show consistency in one aspect! 1 Quote Link to comment
RedNLeader Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I'll take a one point win myself...But we all know that the team should have won the game by more than that. How many times can one team shoot its self in the foot? Yeah I know I was one of those fans that was ripping the team durin the game...but after all that was said and done I will take a one point win! Quote Link to comment
