HuskerfaninOkieland Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Blue hairs aren't loud enough Student section was moved We've never had a b******* The sellout streak is a farce The parachuting tunnel walk video messed up our mojo 1 Quote Link to comment
NoKoolAidForME Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Knapplc - no excuse list is complete without reference to it being Texas/ Big 12 fault or the effects of Prop 48 Rule. Quote Link to comment
84HuskerLaw Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 The only one that really matters: We have lost too many games and not won enough games each year since 1998 leading to much disappointment for Husker Nation. 1 Quote Link to comment

Stumpy1 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Excuse 114: It Shawn Eichorst's fault. He fired Bo and lead us into this situation. Quote Link to comment
LAblackshirt Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 115: Coach Riley is a career .500 guy, and thus cannot take us to a championship (except for the one he has which totally doesn't count because Canada and stuff). Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 We lost our Texas recruiting pipeline when we moved to the Big Ten. Nebraska winters are cold. And it snows. Recruits won't come here. It was much easier to win the Big 8 than the Big Ten. Wisconsin fans are very drunk and obnoxious. No #PolySwag Only three things can happen when you pass. And two of them are bad.

knapplc Posted January 4, 2017 Author Share Posted January 4, 2017 Updated the list. NUance - what does "No #PolySwag" mean? Did Tavita Thompson leave and I missed it? Quote Link to comment
mel4red Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 We lose when we wear all whites. Except that one time I put that on there as 'We lose when we wear "Surrender Whites"' And it should be Excuse #1 !! Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Updated the list. NUance - what does "No #PolySwag" mean? Did Tavita Thompson leave and I missed it? I take it more broadly than just Tavita Thompson. We don't seem to land any of those stud Samoan recruits that we see at places like Oregon and USC. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 How about: #116 - Our true freshman QB who is redshirting didn't show that he is an absolute stud so our QB recruiting sucks. Quote Link to comment
Igetbored216 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I have one for next season: There are a lot of young players in key positions and a new QB starting. 1 Quote Link to comment
Geeboo07 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I'd like to add the following that I've seen here recently: We aren't tough enough Our locker room is too showy We need old rusty weights and a dirt floor in the S&C area We aren't big enough Our lineman are jelly We are not quick enough We waste our time on home visits if a recruit doesn't commit Give it up with the dirt floor and try opening your mind to what is being said.
