No Win November

[WWG1_we_GBR]

we will win against Minnie and shock the world by beating Michigan in the big house - no fights - and will beat Iowa. Write it down now. We are going to a bowl game. A crappy one, but a bowl game. Husker fans will pack the place and we win that one too starting the MJ era off on the right foot.

I think we can win one of those games, esp if CT is healthy.

 

This is the hardest part of the schedule tho, and we knew that the minute the Big Ten released it.  

 

But did we count on Wisconsin and Iowa looking this feeble, and actually tied with Nebraska in the Big 10 West? 

 

For that matter, Minnesota looked almost identical to Nebraska in losing to Purdue and Illinois, and is also tied with Nebraska.

 

Not saying we're going to win one of these, but I'd never assume we couldn't just because these names now scare us.

 

Funny how this season turned out to be the dream scenario for Frost keeping his job. The easiest year to get six wins in recent memory, including Oklahoma. 

 

Seriously though, HTF did we lose to Northwestern?

Yes I completely agree it was the dream scenario schedule.  Coulda gone into this part of the schedule with some momentum, along with (as you pointed out) Wisc & Iowa being way down.  It's really hard to believe we are in this spot today.

So damn frustrating.

Hard to believe, but also very easy to believe.  Once I took off my own rose colored glasses it was pretty easy to see the evidence of Frost being an absolute disaster as far back as 2019.  That day in Boulder when we blew a 17-0 halftime lead to a not good CU team, I knew deep down we were in trouble, but didn't want to admit it then.  Maybe next year in Boulder we can get something good started there for a change.
