I try not to listen to those clowns. However they are there to give their opinions and I can respect that. I don't think a lot of people have respect for our program at this point, but that's fine because it'll make it better when we do compete for the Natl Champ again.
C'mon now...this is Lou "those Rice Owls scares the hell outta me" Holtz. The man spent his entire career at ND being terrified of Navy and wondering how we could play with "doze guys at Rutgers". I love the man for what he did for my Irish and his many entertaining Holtzisms, but he's not a polished analyst yet.
Besides, and I'll say this for the Huskers as much as I said it for the Irish - until you do it on the field, don't expect the respect to come flooding back. NU rolls up on Pitt and goes into conference play 3-0 and they start showing Offensive production to at least match the Blackshirts, they'll be changing some minds.
Personally, I would rather see the Huskers win upsets and have everyone in the Big 12 think we're patsies. That way, when we bust them in the chops we can enjoy their expressions all the more.
