I honestly know nothing about Iowa football. I couldn’t identify Hayden Fry in a lineup and have no idea how many Rose Bowls they ever won. All that I can really remember is that we once fired a coach after beating them, and that they were called the ‘fake ID of college football’ at their most recent high water mark.
I am however very impressed with @CyHawk for knowing offhand so much Nebraska football history. Dude is an absolute wealth of information on everything the program has done the past 40 years it seems. Hell, I bet some of our most ardent graybeards can’t recall the numbers, results, anecdotes, etc that this guy can rattle off without hesitation. Some might call him a troll. I call him a great fan of all things Huskers.
He’s alright in my book. Hope he stays.
Honestly, we do not need help ripping on Iowa. You do bring out the laughter. ThxI could not agree more. through odd circumstances, Iowa has been ranked WAY higher than what was deserved for many years. They have been fortunate to be the opposite of Nebraska in that they have figured out how to win the close games. Not pretty, but they win.
Frankly, other than the criminal element, I enjoyed watching the huskers offense back in the day. They pounded the option better than anybody. I still believe that it would work today.
Dont worry, after the game I will slip away for another year. Somebody has to stir up the chit! I still say Nebraska by 10.
This is so true.I don’t know why people bother responding to that Iowa d-bag troll. I blocked him since his first post. If you spend so much time on an opponent’s board, it goes to show how boring and insignificant your own team is.
I must have missed that part. I am betting Huskers by 10.But if you are headed to another teams site to talk about how great your team is, that is lame.
You are right, you did miss that part.I must have missed that part. I am betting Huskers by 10.
For this rivalry to exist there needs to at least be a bit of trash talk both ways. It is all perspective, except of course to the facts of lawlessness in Lincoln during the run in the 80's and 90's, as that is well documented. Remove this lawlessness and the wins and championships seem to go away.
Good luck this evening!
Let’s see.I honestly know nothing about Iowa football. I couldn’t identify Hayden Fry in a lineup
You too!I changed my mind on tonight's outcome. Huskers will be down by 4 (21-17) with 3 minutes left in the game and will be driving on offense. Dillion Ravioli will attempt to be a hero and throw an interception. Iowa's boring offense will run out the clock.
Enjoy the game!
I thought that Nebraska would start stronger with fewer mental mistakes. Defense is doing well, but remember that the Iowa QB was on Scout Team 4 weeks ago. Ravioli is not exactly playing great.
Who's blaming the refs?Why is it that poor players, bad teams, and bad coaching is always the fault of the refs?
