Pass the pitcher.......Game Day!

I still think we are going to win this. Everything that could go wrong has, team will respond

Butt was down before the ball was out, problem was the butt was on the Illini's players feet. Gotta sit Mills though, he's coughing up the ball way too much.

Nebraska football is dead............it's never coming back it doesn't seem. 20 years of pain......

If this hire doesn't work, I don't even know if Saban, Dabo or Urbs could turn it around....I can't believe how horrific we look.  In every phase.  Our identity is mistake prone, poor technique and fundamentals.

Anyone that was predicting a blowout or a comfortable win, mind explaining to me what actual reasons you had for thinking that'd be the case?

 

Like did I miss a game where we looked competent and decent against actual competition or something? Just curious what evidence people had for all the sudden being confident we'd win this game by several scores, and curious how many years in a row people will keep believing the same silly fantasies over and over again.

Being dead serious in this comment. I feel like I am watching a mike Riley team

If the team doesn’t improve how high of stock will he have?

[The Scarlet Pimpernel]

anyone who thinks Ohio State is going to take things easy on us next week is crazy. They want payback, to prove that last year was nothing more than a fluke. They might beat us by 60 or more.

I predicted 26-21 Huskers, and people laughed at me 

Right now this is a s#!t show, everything going wrong. Injuries, turn overs, penalties.....if we win at all it will be like 43-42, not looking good

[husker_fan_from_sweden]

Biggest difference of SF and TO, one taught ball security and penalty free football first and foremost and the other teaches it as an afterthought.

I think people will chalk it up to the idea that the Nebraska program is dead in the water.

It is more that Lovie is horrible, like, really bad.

He got that extended contract for a reason.
