funhusker Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 1. The "home" team at away games 2. The "visiting" team at home games 3. Their neutral site opponent I think that covers it 1 Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Overkill Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 1. Turnovers. 2. Penalties. 3. Missed assignments. We beat those three and we'll beat anyone we want. THIS!! I have long maintained that very few teams have actually beat the Huskers - as they typically find ways to beat themselves. So, I want to beat the Nebraska that keeps beating Nebraska.

You could say that about every opponent that NU has beaten. Just a matter of what side of the fence you are on. Sometimes teams are just better than you. Quote Link to comment

Hence my reference to "very few teams", to account for those better teams. If they play their best, and still don't win, I am ok with that. Goes back to Osborne's philosophy of - beat the teams you should. Many of those "should beat" teams have gotten the better of NU in recent times. Quote Link to comment

I was saying that MSU could say that they beat themselves because they lost to NU. So anyone that has been beaten by NU could say the same thing "We beat ourselves". Quote Link to comment

Overall, Michigan State was the better team than NU last year. What FlipPhone is saying is that NU needs to get back to the talent and coaching level where NU should be able to win 7 or 8 games regardless how the opponent played. That's what NU was able to do for decades until recent times. Quote Link to comment

Saunders Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I like to be pretty cordial here till I feel that I have to get defensive. Which in all honesty can happen quicker than it probably needs too... I can say with relative certainty that you're treated better here than you would be than at any other school's message boards. I guarantee that if one of us set up shot at Oregon boards, we'd be treated like crap from day 1. Quote Link to comment

This thread is ridiculous. This staff has beaten ONE divisional opponent -- Minnesota. The fans might want to focus first on enjoying wins over divisional opponents. 2 Quote Link to comment
SABER Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 We enjoy all wins, no matter who they are over. Expect a lot of those this fall. Quote Link to comment

However, what I said was that my tendency to get defensive happens quicker than it probably should. At times. Quote Link to comment
