We(most husker fans) still aren't in the reality that these are still rebuilding years. Look at Bama. They went through 3 coaches.(franchione, price and shula) before they got Saban. If Pelini goes 6-6 after martinez is gone, we may need to replace him like bama replaced shula. It may be unpopular to fire Pelini if he can't get us over the top but that is reality. heck, Texas is in a downward spiral and they don't even know it yet!!!!

The offense is good. The defense is still not good. Wisconsin's offense has been terrible all year. I was proud of the fight the team had. Even if we lose tonight, I was proud. This doesn't feel like Bill Clownahan circa 2007 praise the lord!!!!
The defense did what was needed. The offense needs to pick up the D like the D picked up the offense circa 2009.
