    The CBS CFB social media guy hates Tom Fornelli (UM/NU related)

    Wetzel and Forde make fun of Nebraska all the time. All they do is take shots at us. They're way worse than the Cover3 guys IMHO. Other than Bud, I haven't felt like the other 2 guys were anti- NU in any way. Apparently they all are now

    I'm at a weird place on this. It used to really bother me. For some reason it doesn't anymore. I'm like, you have to win games to shut these people up. If you don't win, then they'll keep going. It's like the Biff Poggi comment about how their lines were beating the snot out of our lines. I...

    The CBS CFB social media guy hates Tom Fornelli (UM/NU related)

    I've thought a lot about this. I always just thought it was the national media's hate for Nebraska + hate for the player, etc. Then I asked myself, would Raiola be getting this much hate if he was at Tennessee or FSU? I actually think it would be the same. I think some view him as...

    BTW to reiterate, the point of the thread is that it was hilarious that the video editor put b-roll of Raiola making amazing plays. It didn't match Fornelli saying he sucks. Even the commentors were like 'this video doesn't match the words.' As a former media industry guy I found that hilarious.

    The CBS CFB social media guy hates Tom Fornelli (UM/NU related)

    This is hilarious. They have video of Tom Fornelli saying he is "done" with Dylan Raiola as a good QB, he does too many Mahomes-isms, unnecessary sidearm throws etc... Then they have video of some of Raiola's best escapes + passes of the game playing under it as b-roll. It makes no sense. It's...

    Also our QB was better against UM than Oklahoma's was....and everyone is on Mateer's jock

    One observation that I've had this year is that some breaks are finally going our way. We've said for years "why does all the crazy shit always go against us??" and "why can't WE ever win a game we're not supposed to (like every else)?" Funny thing is, we've played 2 real games so far this...

    Yep. This. I've been saying this for a couple years and our fans still don't get it. We are heading into an era where every B1G team is going to have 3-4 losses minimum. Good teams lose every week. It's just part of the game. Auburn gave up NINE sacks yesterday in their loss and most observers...

    Why did we let/push Tony White out?

    Just to be clear, I don't think it's on ANY coach! To me this game was 90% about the team with the better players beating the team with the worse players. Michigan recruits at a level we don't and they've been doing it for 11 yrs. VERY VERY VERY hard to jump in and beat them at this point in...

    Why did we let/push Tony White out?

    I agree. Remember this was a Phil Snow gameplan as well. And Snow and Butler had 2 weeks to put it together. I think they knew that we were at a talent disadvantage (our D vs their O) and that was about as good a gameplan as you could ask for when you have worse talent. The gameplan created a...

    Why did we let/push Tony White out?

    IDK....it just looked obvious to me from early on that Michigan was the better team in all 3 phases. White did well vs the run most of the time but I'm reminded of the USC game where we couldn't stop their RB counter play that they ran like 500 times. We gave up 6 yds/carry to a 5-5 USC team...

    Remember TW vs USC last year? Would be similar result.

    Game Thread Nebraska v Michigan

    Correct. Michigan looked the stronger program. 10 yrs of recruiting all high 4s and 5* recruits - it's very difficult to crash this party. We can pick at position coaches and playcalling all we want but the bottom line is that was a clear separation between good recruits and elite recruits...

    Game Thread Nebraska v Michigan

    I don't think they have the horses up front. I don't know how TW would be able to do much better.

    Game Thread Nebraska v Michigan

    So basically Holgo wanted/assumed we were kneeling and letting the half end. While he and Rhule were unsure about it the clock kept ticking. Rhule then calls a TO w 1 sec left. Then you get the TD. I assume Poggi was kind of watching that and he thought we were kneeling too? I've never seen...
