NUpolo8 Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 But that's not what you said. Are you switching your story? No.Fine Fresno is a juggernaut of the Mountain West. Still, Nebraska should win by at least two scores. If they somehow lose, they should leave Bo in central California. So you answer my question about switching your story in the negative then proceed to switch your story. Glad we got that straight. I'm just stunned we are A) defending Fresno st, and B) framing why it's ok to not beat a mid major by two scores in "our year" 1 Link to comment
NUpolo8 Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 Just spouting nonsense again to further your agenda. What's new? I said I expect to beat Fresno st by over two scores. How is that negative? 1 Link to comment
TheSker Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 B) framing why it's ok to not beat a mid major by two scores in "our year" 1992 is long gone in the NCAAs. (We've had this discussion) Link to comment
alwayshusking Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 NU line vs Fresno State NU -4.5 USC -21.5 Fresno Just goes to show you the betting market doesn't think much of Nebraska right now. Public perception is at a low point currently. Hopefully Bo can change the narrative. 2 Link to comment

True2tRA Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Just to throw my two cents in......just curious, are we framing the Fresno St. game as a possible loss to somehow dampen the insane reaction Huskerboard, and Nebraska fans in general, would have if we somehow manged to lose that game? We all realize there's no reason Nebraska should lose that game right? Link to comment

I would ask the converse: Are those who are insisting that all Nebraska has to do is show up and they'll roll Fresno State setting themselves up so they will still have something to complain about should Nebraska not win as far as they claim we should?

Whoa! I'm not going all Wyoming 2013 here. We have to play to win, we cant just show up. I'm personally not setting anything up to have something to complain about. I don't like to complain about this team. But if they lose that Fresno game, hell yes I'll complain. Nebraska should not struggle with them this year. Link to comment

Nebraska should not struggle with them this year. i agree with this. i think the conversation started as being about whether or not fresno is any good. most think they are not. some tried to argue they are better than those thought.

Saunders Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Should we steamroll Fresno? Absolutely. Will we? Probably. Should we panic if we only are up by 10 or so points in the 4th and tack a late TD on to pad the score? No way. I wouldn't panic even if we only win by 10-14 points, depending on how the game was played. We see it annually where great teams can struggle with a mid major. It happens, every single year. 1 Link to comment
