NU will get beaten bad

[cas]

Yeah, I don't ever root for Nebraska.

I'm a terrible Big 12 fan.

Just think of them as another overrated Big Televen team.

the best two teams in college football history are the 1971 Huskers and 1995 Huskers

Wait... I thought the 2003 Sooners were the best team in college football history.

Actually, ESPN lists the 72 Trojan team as number 2, in between the 71 and 95 Huskers.

Where is BMWJayhawk to make his claim that NU will win and, because he believes the talent level between ku and NU is minimal, that the Hawks would also beat them in their "stadium".

PS - Polamalu is a bitch. Remember when LJ did this....

The 1995 Huskers and 1971 Huskers were the top two teams in college football history. Anyone with a brain realizes that, as each was the best team of its generation. In my view, the 1995 team was the best team in college football history, hands down. They played four teams that ended up in the Top 10 that year, and none of those games was even close. They pounded #2 Florida 62-24, in a game that wasn't even that close...notably that was the same Florida team that won the National Championship the following year.

But either the 1995 of 1971 versions of the Huskers would have pounded the 1972 USC team, which doesn't even belong in that conversation.

NU wins something like 27-24...

...If he actually goes for the throat, then NU can (and should) win.

WOW.

I've been way wrong on pretty much everything recently.

And I'm like a prophet...

"I think we can win, and the fact that we played a couple of quality opponents probably helps us while they, on the other hand, are inexperienced in many areas. Memorial Stadium is a huge advantage too.

That said, I think we are going to get slaughtered. We have potential, but we have been playing like crap in several key areas ever since we've had Callahan. For instance, to beat these guys, we are going to have to catch the ball if our qb puts it in a receivers hands. Can you see Phillips, Swift, and Nunn doing that throughout the game? Second, what in the hell is going on with our tackling? Our defense is playing better overall and I think Cosgrove schemes fairly well, but we look like a bunch of pansies when we tackle now. We need to drop the Blackshirt tradition until they start to HIT. Last--and this one surprised me--what happened with our offensive line last week? They looked terrible.  Flush

I am all for keeping coaches and giving them a huge opportunity to establish themselves and adapt, so I still am happy keeping Callahan around for a few more seasons. However, starting this year we have the talent we need across the board, so when we can't tackle or catch then the blame falls on him. We need to f-ing step it up. I was pissed watching the Wake game last week--it was the same crap all over again. I am all for 'believing' in your team going into big games like this, but right now it is year four and we haven't been given anything to believe in yet.  Bang Head

USC wins 34-6."

That list is bleh though, because any team today could beat the 1945 Army squad.
