Whs from cb Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 If you want to be respected by the rest of the country you play the best schedule you can. The game is won or lost on the field not on this web-site. I think the Big did us a favor with the schedule, lets play football. 3 3 Quote Link to comment

While I appreciate the "don't be scared, play the best to be the best" mentality, even our Athletic Director spent yesterday complaining and whining. He knows that halfway through the 2nd quarter of game 1, Nebraska is likely to be grounded into pulp by a far more talented and superior team. Nebraska is going to bear the brunt of many jokes at halftime, and it will continue through the first 4 weeks of the season. Quote Link to comment

You won't be happy either way. If we do good, it means you were wrong so you'll be sad. If we do poorly, you were right and therefore we suck and you'll be sad. You are in a no win situation my friend. Time to find a hobby. 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment

It’s always been a frustration of mind that we always start the season with 4 games that give us no clue how good we are. This year, every week is a big game. Especially at the start. I agree. How many times have we been faced with a schedule that is back loaded only to lull us into distorted expectations. I look forward to facing these "better" teams early for a change. I'll take tOSU before they're running like a well oiled machine any time. Quote Link to comment

Look we are trending up type of narrative 2 Quote Link to comment

Or should we we sue again? 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Stone Cold Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 The negativity of this fan base is just saggering. Did the Big load up the schedule for us, probably but nothing you can do about it but play the game. This is a unprecedented year so all we can do is just play the game. Nothing is going to be a given, hell osu could come down with covid by then, then what. All we can do is attempt to play the game this year. 1 Quote Link to comment

We have become fragile as a fan base. We want "get back" to where we were? Let's start it with a big fat upset first game. Next kick the badgers butt and send them back to the 80's. Treat Iowa like Iowa like the historic mediocre team that it is. Sink Minny's boat. Penn State has been due a butt kicking since the "catch" that was made 3 yards out of bounce. How about we put our big boy pants on and strap it up and start acting like the the best fan base in the country! 1 Quote Link to comment

Now we just need frost to get the team built back up so they can do those things. I long for the day thinking like that is actually realistic again. So that way other programs actually fear and respect us instead of looking at us like the 40 year old fat drunk guy talking about his high school glory days 1 Quote Link to comment
