Did anyone find out what happened with Turner Gill?

I have a funny feeling that Gill Turner may be HC at Nebraska some day down the road sometime, unless he is the AD. He has a lot of class, and you can bet that I will be paying attention to and cheering for Buffalo in the future.

Just curious - have we EVER played a "tough" non-conference schedule?

Who does? What is the "ideal" that we're hoping for here?

Are you denying the powerhouse status of the Pacific football team... that... umm... doesn't exist anymore?

1981 looked pretty good:

S 12 at Iowa (7/) L, 7-10 60,160

S 19 Florida State (17/19) W, 34-14 76,289

S 26 Penn State (15/3) L, 24-30 76,308

O 3 Auburn (/) W, 17-3 76,423

1986 looked pretty good:

S 6 Florida St.^* (8/11) W, 34-17 75,865

S 20 at Illinois^ (6/) W, 59-14 75,865

S 27 Oregon (4/) W, 48-14 76,185

O 4 at South Carolina (3/) W, 27-24 73,109

I'm just basing this on traditional powers and conferences

I agree. Back in the day we used to play a tough non conf. schedule. Remember the Penn State game that cost us the Nat. Championship? Maybe you're to young. Todd Blackledge remembers very well. he knows they lsot.

I remember that game. That was a heartbreaker
