I'll get scorched for writing this, and I'm sure that Knapplc will lock this thread (as he does when he's in a bad mood - - so much for freedom of speech), but I am amazed at the quitting spirit of the fans. One bad game and people are ready to throw Bo and Beck (and themselves) off the highest bridge in Nebraska (which, thankfully, is only about 3 stories tall). Seriously. We are still 2-0. It's funny how we pat ourselves on the back for being the classiest fans in college football all week, but, the second we have some adversity, it's time to execute coaches and people who dare to post a contrary opinion. No wonder Bo threw us under the bus last year.
We are the most bi-polar fans alive. We talk sweet nothings to Bo for the last six months ("Bo and his cat - - awesome"), then stab him in the neck the second we have a bad game. Let's get behind our team and encourage them, rather than killing our coaches. Yes, we sucked today. But, you know what? We won. You know what else? We actually have good players (cue for sarcastic references to lousy coaching). You know what else? In 1993, a totally sucky Kansas team went for 2 points at the end of the game and almost beat us. If this had happened when we had the internet, half this board would have been calling for TO's head. After that game, we brushed it aside and went undefeated, finally getting jobbed 18-16 by FSU. The point is that you keep fighting no matter how bad you feel. We won today and are still undefeated. We can grow from this experience. As a fan base, we need to stop tearing our coaching staff to pieces. Let's get behind them. We may lose 4 games this year. We might lose none. We don't know. There's an old saying, "I have suffered a great many tragedies in my life: a few which have actually come true." Until the wheels actually fall off the wagon, let's work on fortifying the wagon, rather than tearing it apart.
