Nebraska's struggle for relevance.
« Reply #1350 on: September 11, 2020, 05:08:53 PM »
I've never seen a school try so hard to get kicked out of their conference.

Aside from K-State from the 1940s until 1989, of course.
Please don’t drink the Wefald KoolAid.  Just beyond dumb.

The Big 8 kicking Kstate out is a total myth and a Wefaldian Tall Tale.

I enjoy that Nebraska thinks the Big 10 gives two fucks about Nebraska's opinions on anything.

Dumbest of the dumb :facepalm: of course idiot Nebraska fans were all over twitter not only defending this dufus but pounding their chests like this was something great. Of course the Big 10 did not announce on Tuesday night.

This decision was made by the Big Ten accountants.  The heart of it all is network money.  It's a bitch being broke. 
Hot time in Kat town tonight.

I love it. They spent half a century being top dog in the Big 8, cried when Texas schools came and they weren't king crap anymore, went to the B10 and are now crying because they are an also ran in the conference pecking order.

Might as well just quit, join the mtn west, where they can be big daddy again.

id still take them back in a heartbeat
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Nebraska fans don't need wins this year because they KNOW they saved Big Ten football...

I’d love to schedule them for a couple of home and homes, or even a series of Arrowhead games. Could really help our recruiting of cornfeds, while also further mushing their program into oblivion.

lol @ the writer thinking it's harder to get to 8 wins in the B10, particularly in Nebraska's crap division.

That "would you take K-State's accomplishments" article really hit home for some people, particularly crap sportswriters that can't come up with an original idea

 For those here who but a twinkle in your daddy's eye or still shitting yellow in the 80's:

"Which prompts one question: Why bother? Why send fine young men onto the field every Saturday in autumn to be humiliated? The answer is simple: "I don't think the Big Eight would want us if we didn't play football," says AD Miller, and though KSU could appeal its banishment, it is generally agreed that if Kansas State were to drop football, the Big Eight would just as quickly drop K-State. That would be a shame for both the school and the league: The K-State men's basketball team has won the conference championship 10 times, more than any other school, and ranks sixth nationally in the number of NCAA tournament appearances; the women's basketball program has had one losing season in 21 years, and its six league titles are tops in the Big Eight.

"In other words, the football team is sacrificed for those who cannot imagine Big Eight basketball without the Wildcats. Snyder, predicting the future, says. "We will be as good as we can be, and we will not be 0-11." Stay tuned."  SI "Futility U"

The happiest I've ever seen KK is when KSU beat UK in the tournament and when Nebraska football is getting their ass kicked
