I did not say inferior to these two (inferior to Texas, TTech, Missouri, and Oklahoma --- that I said). I said comparable to and likely slightly behind KU and Colorado. And yes that is, tough as it is to hear, true. Time will tell. But it will be shown that the NU talent is nowhere near where most on this board think it is.
Don't Turn On Bo

I don't think anybody wants to 'turn on Bo,' but those guys didn't look ready to play today, and part of that falls on the coaches. The D gave up too many big-yardage plays and the offense sputtered. Nobody is sounding alarms or looking for a new coach after one game (or one season, for that matter). But those penalties and the utter lack of a run game are items which are MAJOR causes for alarm.

Were looking at 2-0 and it's a winning season so far!
Why turn on Bo? Nebraska is learning from their mistakes and will keep getting better. A win is a win too.
Imagine if we still had last years coaching staff. Nebraska pulled away in the 4th. How many years did Osborne do just that? The Cornhusker Players are proving that they are a team with heart. They could have rolled over and died and allowed them to take the lead in the 4th, but the Huskers held them to 3 and on the kickoff, it was taken back for a TD. If you look at Overall yards, (Kickoff for TD, Suh's interception) Nebraska is the leader.

:clap Last year, they would have layed down and died...they did a nice job coming back, but they should have had more intensity sooner.

I think we all understand that the players he has are not a fit for his system....they look better than last year, but the coaches are still fighting the bad habits that Coz instilled in them. The d-line played well today, but the rest was suspect. Keep the faith folks!!!!!

We have the talent to compete. I'm more afraid that the talent we have just doesn't have the killer instinct it takes to go out week after week and JUST play ball!!!
It's simple, do what the coach tells you. And do it at 100mph!!!! Quite making excuses for them, the PLAYERS need to step up and play every game like it's their last!

Yeah, because recruiting at Alabama with a proven HC like Nick Saban is the same as recruiting at Nebraska with an unproven HC like Bo Pelini...
Last I checked Bama beat Tulsa 20-6. Clemson was ridiculously overrated to start the year. They went 9-4 (5-3 in the ACC) last year and barely beat any quality teams. Nick Saban himself has told the fans and players to not expect a team that will dominate this year.
