I liked how they're all bigger, faster, and stronger than Nebraska.

Oh man, they must have mentioned how fast they were about 75% of the time in that thread.  They are apparently the fastest team in the nation.

I cringe at how insecure some of our fans have become. Why are people tweeting at their coaches and their official twitter? Fans tweeting about their QB who died? Shameful.

 

They don’t ever respond about our record over them but they hate that everyone knows we have better fans. Let’s prove it.

But is it $EC speed?!

lol it’s not just the media. CU fans are obsessing on the new coaching staff like it’s a negative too. I could understand it if we’d just fired a 9-win coach but it makes absolutely no sense in this scenario.

Man, that was awesome!

 

I love when they rip on how there is nothing to do in Nebraska...like those dorks are on the slopes 24/7 and on the hiking trails 24/7.

This actually drives me crazy.  Honestly, I can't imagine if I lived somewhere else where "there is more to do".....when would I do it?

So....they sometimes go to the mountains.  You know what???  I'm hanging out on my boat at the lake.  Actually....a lake in central Nebraska THAT'S FILLED WITH COLORADO PEOPLE BECUSE THEIR LAKES SUCK!!!!

I would like to predict a larger margin of victory but based on these factors I'm going with 40-27 Huskers.

 

I think that's a good prediction.

 

I'd think our offense could average 10 points per quarter in this one. A 20-20 halftime tie wouldn't be surprising, with defensive adjustments in the second half allowing us to pull ahead and finish it out in the fourth quarter.

 

But...obviously I'd much rather run up the score and embarrass them.

Even if they wanted to ski every day, they'd have to sit in traffic for three hours because I-70 backs up in both directions.

 

Also there's not much skiing in July and August

They act like they are posting from the slopes...we get it...you ski 3 times a year...congrats

Hey Any good fish out in that lake, and extra room on the boat? And if so, can I join you buddy?

One thing I really wish Nebraska had is a big airport. At the moment I think I’m fine with living here at least til I retire but it would be nice if it was cheaper to travel.

FOUND A COUPLE OF ARTICLES FROM 'INSIDE THE PYLON' ABOUT CU. THE OFFENSE ARTICLE IS FROM LAST SUMMER BUT THE DEFENSE ONE IS FROM THIS PAST JULY (CU LOST ONE OF THEIR CO-OFFENSIVE COORDINATORS IN THE OFFSEASON).

You'll be over it soon. We've got the right leadership, a winning staff with a hard-nosed culture. I think Frost is right. This team was not a 4-8 team last year. And there is no reason we can't achieve higher than Wisconsin has. There's no reason we can't expect immediate success. 50+ new players joined this team to start that new winning tradition.

 

It's going to be tough and we have to be prepared for the dog fight with Iowa and Wisconsin every year. This year is no different. There's no time to sit back and prepare for the future, we have to win NOW, we have to go big or go home, period.

 

Mike Riley will become nothing but a flash in the pan in the annals of Nebraska history. I think these players have bought in 100% and have turned the page.

Did you mean "splash in the bowl"?
