With Nebraska up 17-10, I felt the chances of a Husker victory were slim to none, and non existent when it was tied. It was the manner in which the momentum had changed and the run defense that gave me little hope. I had a wait and see attitude when the game started. I bought into the thought that with Gregory, Bell, and Abdullah, we could beat a good Wisconsin team. I hope Nebraska wins out, but the chances of this team tanking the last two games is a real possibility to me. This is not the way I ever felt during the TO years. Cosgrove defense of 2007? The same feeling of the flood gates opening. Do the players really buy into this scheme and remain positive, or do they have the same doubts I do? I find the bad fan label is fitting for such a negative attitude. But Pelini teams have conditioned me to expect the blowout when it counts. You can't fire a 8-2 coach, but you can lose the confidence in that coach. And that is where I am at. Winning out won't change it. Next year I will expect this team to tank when a championship is on the line. That is purgatory! Hoping the Huskers to win knowing the blowouts will continue. The administration and the fans are not to blame. The kids are not to blame, it is the coaching staff.

The only way to deal with it to stop thinking about. My fiancée has told me I can attend games alone, and watch them on TV alone. She has been with me for four years of this, and never saw the 90's. she knows very little of football, but sees there is a psychological problem with this program. Are we so invested in this program to see it as those outside the program see?

When Gordon ran for 60 yards to make it 17-10 Huskers, the game was already over. I knew it the second I saw it, and the only question was how bad is it going to get.
 
Exactly how many threads do we need for people to post this stuff in? Seriously. Almost every thread since saturday is just an echo chamber of the exact same stuff over and over.

I have a firm grip, Doc. :) I have always been behind the team, and always will. The coaches are a different matter. And I would say that people can deal with it however they want, and need to. And, you can have Bo for several years if you want, but I have seen enough. When coaches are holding back the program or the team, I will be glad to help them pack.....
GO BIG RED
 
I still wore a Husker jacket out on Monday night. Win or lose (badly), I'm still N.

Oh I have no doubt you do my brother....and my broad based rant was more directed at those who voice their opinion then for whatever reason good or bad, right or wrong they continue to dwell on the same thing over and over and over etc.......ya gotta admit it does get beat like a red headed step child...it's not bad enough we had to go through it once but to have to hear about it on every College Football show, on every segment of anything the B10 network does related to conference football.....and that the one game I would love to not see repeatedly shown over and over all week on the B10 and ESPN networks......is being played more than it should. ....now you know they are doing this, they will say because of Melvin Gordons game but it sure feels like somebody has a serious hard one for the Huskers in general.....when we trounce somebody....we are lucky to see the game (in or out of conference) replayed maybe once during the week following the game and if its a team like Miami.....they showed it a total of 2 times I think it was and both were like 2 or 3 a.m. Or some crazy time like that......any how I have no doubt about your support of the team... And in light of the recent trend with this years team that really started before Wisconsin I too think a couple of things.....first Bo was who the people wanted and they got what they asked for a un experienced head guy who had a take no B.S. Sideline attitude and a guy who could un do the damage Billy C and his buddy Cosgrove did and get us headed the right way and for the most part I think Bo has done just that.....but now is where another change might be needed if he cant pull the trigger and get some experienced asst. Coaches to surround him who can coach as well as recruit.....then Its time for him to move on and time to get a guy who CAN GET US where we want to be and really belong.....we have the money.....the school.....the backing and the facilities to be able to compete 1 on 1 with any school in the country so there is no reason we cant do this......its jyst now if Bo can see this or not......if not I will help you show him the door.

Excellent points, Doc. And, you are correct that it does get old rehashing the same stuff. It won't help anyhow, because Bo still is our coach at this point in time. Kinda makes a guy glad there is a football game tomorrow, doesn't it? :) Semper Fi Bro

Me too.

OK, it was a sweatshirt but just sayin'. I might have had red underwear on too now that I think of it, but viewing of that garment was definitely limited.:)

Next time you go out to represent for the Huskers, remember to put pants on. That way you won't have to pull the sweatshirt down so far.......... :naughty:

You are a better man than me MR. I went to play pick up hockey Tue here in CA and I left my Husker hockey jersey in the bag.
 
I was thinking the same thing! We should know by now that those all white Unis don't work that well! maybe some one will research that point! *SMILE!*

It keeps getting rehashed because it keeps happening with no resolution in sight.

I know, valiant. It drives me nuts. Make no mistake, I am still VERY pi$$ed at what I see on the field against good teams. I am just at the point where I think we have discussed about every angle there is, and we know nothing will happen until the season is over. I need to just watch some football and remember why it matters. We can resume the analysis after this game is over.....:)
