The Jackrabbits held NU to 4-13 on third down, and a passing line of 6-16-2  :horrorsurprise: in an 85,000 person packed house in Lincoln.

Can we be as good as the Jackrabbits at home on a Thursday night, with a stadium that is filled with 50,000 people....people who would literally pay to watch every NU player be burned at the stake at mid-field?

Seems at least feasible, doesn't?   :dunno:

Pretty sure Nebraska will realize it doesn't need to attempt a pass to roll up 600 yards of offense. Also, no way our defense forces three turnovers.

Well, they did average just over 4 ypc against the Jackrabbits.  If we can hover around that mark, maybe a bit lower, then we stand a pretty good chance in the game.

...that's what I am saying here...that's it's not intellectually dishonest to try and imagine a FEASIBLE scenario where we can win.  I mean, it seems possible, right?

Whoa, whoa.  Where do we sign up for this?  Because I'm certainly willing to put all of yesterday's Fire Snyder airplane banner money into this instead.

I don't think that they will beat UT in Lincoln, and I think that OSU will fist eff them in Stillwater.  And, Mizzou has the "ability" to beat NU in Lincoln.  Again, you can make reasonable argument for NU going on a 0-4 stretch.  I don't believe that this will happen, but NU is definitely not a lock to get into the championship game.

Who knows who will win the South...wow, what a mess.

No they aren't.  They also don't deserve their ranking.  And their fans are stupid

Nebraska's defense is better than UCF's, and we all saw the kind of trouble UCF's defense gave K-State on offense.  Also, Nebraska is leading the Big 12 in rushing with over 300 yards per game.  I just don't like the matchup at all for K-State, but hey, anything can happen on any given Saturday.

There used to be a better one on ksufans that I recently went over to find and it was gone.  Same "shocked" type of eyes but a little different look.  A reward will be given to anyone who finds it and delivers it to me.

My fave one:
50k angry EMAWs and 11 days for the ol' ball coach to prepare may be just enough for an upset on thursday.  
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.

It would be nice to see the defense stack the box, and make Martinez beat us through the air, just like Central Florida did to us. We'll see if Cosh does that, though.

I'm afraid there are going to be a bunch of NU fans.

It makes me think of Harry in Home Alone when he keeps getting hurt, gets really red, and angrily mumbles to himself.

It wasn't a real "benching," just Bo sending signals of anger and hatred to his QB.  He'll start against us.
