OWH: Twitter reaction: Former Huskers, others react to Nebraska-Wisconsin game

What happens if Iowa beats Wisconsin and we beat Minny and Iowa.....................we end up in Indy? Oh look, national television again against OSU...................great!
Wisconsin needs to lose both of their remaining games. Not that I want them to. I kinda just want this season to end
Thanks for the info, yeah, that's not happening and that's fine by me at this point.

I think the national media has been pretty diplomatic on the subject. They trot out the reminder that only Nick Saban and Bo win at least 9 games every season. But you can read a lot between the lines, and I'm guessing the off mic chatter is a lot more like the Twitter sh#tstorm. It's one thing to still be seeking your signature win. It's another thing to still be absorbing humiliating losses. And yet another thing to be physically restrained by your players from berating a ref who hadn't even made a bad call.

There will be some mention of fan base entitlement and unreasonable expectation, but few in the college football community would begrudge Nebraska if we went Christmas shopping for a shiny new coach.
IMO, I think you underestimate the college football community's need for negative stories and anti-B1G, pro SEC coverage.

And by community, I mean ESPN, since they control the narrative in and around college football.
You aren't the only person who wildly over-estimates ESPN's role as bogeyman, or underestimates how Nebraska remains responsible for its own destiny, but I get kinda tired writing the same posts.
