I agree about showing concern for the team. But everyone must realize that the players themselves need to recognize their problems and improve.
It's kinda like comparing Shaq's free throw's during an NBA game. You don't think he puts in a little more time during practice to improve his percentage? How many times could his points missed at the line been a win for his team?
There is a lot of excitement in college football today. Even though I don't care too much for Steve Spurrier, I was excited for South Carolina getting its first win ever in Tennessee.
The college playing field is leveling somewhat. IMHO Nebraska's option game became too predictable to the opponent. Coupled by the influence of passing quarterbacks having a much better chance of going pro became more apparent with each passing year, Nebraska changed with the times. And Nebraska's long tradition of winning will continue, given time to mature.
You must all believe that the heart of what we stand for has been nurtured in the soul of every one of us.
Driving down the neighborhood streets of Lincoln I couldn't help but watch a small group of our kids playing football. Perhaps replaying a great Husker moment of one of our recent games where a receiver stretched out to catch a touchdown pass from Taylor.
Quite the change from when I played backyard football in the late 70's and early 80's, running the option as I had my tailback in tow.
Seeing these sights gives me a warm feeling that normalcy will return to our program and winning, again, will be second nature.
You gotta believe! GBR! :thumbs
