Fall-out from Cancellation

This is the biggest concern. 

 

Nothing like combating stereotypes by having the game cancelled for a monster storm

Think you guys are blowing that aspect way out of proportion. Kids take official visits all the time even when there isn’t a game. I’m sure they still had a blast and they got to see 90k fill a stadium and see how crazy it got when the team walked out. They also got to talk to people like Gabrielle Union and D-Wade, and our own legend in Suh. I am also sure they got a lot more time with the coaches because of this. Sure it sucks the game was cancelled, but I’m sure they did a ton of other things.

Real game film to critique and improve on.  Would be great to actually see how the guys react to miscues in a real situation.  Get them confidence that the system works with things are "live".  

 

As mentioned, not that any game is a guaranteed win, but it was one we all chalked up as a "W".  Now it makes the remaining 11 all count a little more....

 

I'm sure the recruits would've loved to see a real game, but they got to stay in the locker room for an extended time.  Listen to/talk to the staff more.  See/talk with the "celebrities" more.  The tunnel walk on tv was amazing! The intensity on Frost's face could not be missed.  No doubt the recruits realized they were part of a historical moment just being there.....

 

Everyone is healthy.  Another week to prep.  No game film on NU.  Maybe even a little more chippy next week to come out and finish business....

The bowl eligibility issue is not an issue. If Nebraska only wins 5 they will go bowling. Last year FSU had this exact situation. Game cancelled because of weather and only won 5 and they went to a bowl game. 

 

Not to mention our own team has gotten in with 5 wins. 

 

Of course, just win 6+ and don’t worry about it.

Actually Florida St scheduled UL Monroe during championship week for their 12th game and won to go 6-6. They would not have made a bowl game without that win.

This isn't true.  FSU played a 12th game on conf champ weekend to get to 6 wins.

 

But like you said, win games and it shouldn't matter.
