Count 'Bility Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Not impressed. Lots of folks gonna owe Nebraska apologies after today. After reviewing Michigan St pretty extensively, they may very well win, but this "Nebraska doesnt have a chance, Michigan St is a world-beater" perception is mind boggling. Michigan St is no more impressive than Nebraska right now. What? We squeeked out a win in Ann Arbor with our 2nd string offense, so now Michigan is not good, but just a week prior that accomplishment was grounds for propping Michigan St to near-invisible status? This is funny. We can play this game all day. Look at what each team did to Purdue. And Michigan St aint played Minnesota yet either. All a sudden, that's not so bad of a loss after all. Bottom line is this. Nebraska may very well lose today. But it will be a battle. The notion that we dont have a chance, and, as some are saying that it will be a blowout, is complete garbage. Desmond Howard is a douchebag. That is all. Quote Link to comment

True2tRA Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 They won't apologize. These talking head dumbf@&ks have a new sweetheart every week. Except of course, the SEC is their permanent valentine. These guys will proclaim MSU as king until they are knocked off their throne. Then, they will proclaim MsU was no real king at all. When Nebraska does well, we beg for recognition. So when MSU is doing well, give em credit. If/when we beat them, we deserve the same credit. It's funny to me, the same fans that want so badly to be recognized as an elite team have done nothing but run MSU into the grou d all week. " we have this in the bag" , that " MSU defense is overrated", " why are we worried about this team, they've never beat us". Well folks, you may get your wish. After we beat these guys, that may be all you hear is how overrated this MSU team was. It's baffling to me, but I guess I analyze things a bit differently. 1 Quote Link to comment

Actually, Mandel has been talking about the SEC being overrated this season. Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Ok? So...? You do see the title of the thread, yes? I thought Mandel's take on the SEC bias you're discussing seemed relevant. Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 When I said "these", "talking head dumbf@&ks" I thought it was pretty clear I meant more than one. While yes, Mandel belongs in that category, he VERY OBVIOUSLY doesn't represent the majority of these talking head dumbf@&ks, which are VERY OBVIOUSLY SEC biased. Quote Link to comment

You had some thoughts on the general media in a thread about a particular media member. I was pointing out that your comments weren't particularly relevant to the discussion about Mandel since he actually agrees with you. Was there a point to your comment about Mandel's prediction that I'm missing? Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Nope, after four comments about it, I think you've finally realized my comment wasn't about Mandel, but as a general media perception. Thank you so much though for policing me on my comment since it was only halfway relevant to the TOPIC TITLE. God knows nobody in Huskerboard has ever even remotely drifted from sticking to the original Topic Title. Quote Link to comment
Ratt Mhule Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I have no idea what is going on right now. When he said talking heads, I took it as ESPN guys (considering two posts above someone said DH is a douche), not Mandel. He didn't even mention Mandel's name in the entire post. 1 Quote Link to comment

I don't get it either honestly. I have an explanation, but I get banned when I say what I think of some people. So I am being nice. Quote Link to comment
MichiganDad3 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 While I can certainly see us losing...........no way that we are blown out by that offense.......... If NU has multiple TOs, we could get blown out. Quote Link to comment
