No Respect from ESPN's Herbstreit

The Herbies are here for the 2019 season

Sorry for the title screw-up (it was supposed to be ESPN's Herbstreit), I accidentally posted before I was ready.

Didn't give Nebraska any love except for mentioning Martinez was one of the better run/pass QBs. Thinks Wisconsin will win the West and that Minnesota will be the division's surprise team.

what do expect from the putz who thinks USC ( pick any Pete Carroll year ) was better then the 95 huskers.
I have always thought he is so butthurt about those years because he was at ****** ass ohio st. a school so arrogant the are trying to copyright the word "the" .....the ohio st putzes
 
Herbstreit is, at best, a putz. At worst, pick your choice euphamism and insert it in DrF's thread title.

I could give one whit less what that @sshat has to say about the Mighty Men of Corn. Will be fun to see what he has to say once Frost & Co. completely turn the program back rightside up though.

I love it. It will make rubbing doubters faces in the dirt so much sweeter.:)

Did you think that last year when he piscked Frost as the best hire of the year?

Herbstreit breaks down Frost as biggest impact coaching hire

And that he has always had good things to say about Frost at NU?

Give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he just doesnt think we're ready. With the mess the program was just 20 months ago it might be hard to believe we are 'back'.
The August hype machine is in full production and we might not have a realistic vision of who we are.

Funny thing is, if he had said NU has a long way to go to catch the better teams on the B10 we'd be lighting our torches.

I am just really enjoying the process of watching the program rise from the ashes. Frankly, I think some of the predictions of us winning the West are a little strong.

i don't really care about him not picking nu to win the west. give it a year or two before we're seriously considered full time contenders. i just don't care to listen to his commentary while covering a game. he has to expound on - every.single.tiny.little.aspect - of - every.single.play..
dude. yeah, you know football. we got it. give it a rest
 
One, he should be from mizzou, he's a show me guy, thats ok.
Two, I'm of the belief he doesnt think our lines are ready yet,which did struggle under SF last year.

But three is, when at osu, he never knew what we could do under great SnC from Epley,and Boyd said 18 months. He will be surprised.
 
Maybe I'm alone on this, but I've never gotten the opinion that he was anti-Nebraska. He got worked up during that whole "best team ever" thing but he knew that Nebraska fans were driving the online voting in our favor.

For the record, I never thought Musburger was anti-nebraska either but some people are convinced of it. Personally, I like it when either one of the two are part of the broadcast team for our games.

I think he sees us better than dinardo does, which shows espn got one right anyways.
 
That's good for us. He just gave us good juice. He's always wrong so.
I can't stand the guy but glad he's not buying in to the Hype machine. It's been 20 years since we've deserved it. Got a lot of making up to do for our not so great recent history

Nebraska is a 4-8 team and until they change it, they are still a 4-8 team. I think they will change it, but I can understand others, especially in the sports media having some doubt. Last year I thought the Huskers would be 6-6 on the low side and 8-4 on the high side.

If you want to see a stupid media person, look at Bruntz at the Nebraska 247 site. He picked Iowa to win the division this year on a national radio show..lol. Iowa will be your typical Iowa team - some good line play, average at most places, and a player here and there that is NFL level.

If the first game was not canceled our season likely would have gone a different direction. Sh*t happens

Don't get the dislike. Herbstreit is one of the best color guys around. Remember as we were slowly sinking after Osborne left guys like him and Lee Corso were really looked down upon in Nebraska. They were just stating what they saw and did not have fan blinders on. These guys had huge respect for what NU was, not what they became
