    What's Your "If Only" Husker History Change?

    I think it would have looked better to fire him after 7-7, but the universe of Nebraska fans who were mad about firing Solich after 10-3 was probably almost identical to the universe of Nebraska fans that would have been mad about firing him after 7-7. Something about his connection to TO and...

    What's Your "If Only" Husker History Change?

    Came here to say this. It appeared we were actually back. And then we weren’t. Callahan was flawed but so are most coaches. That was his particular window to succeed and it closed most cruelly.

    Weeks 0-3 (And Other Special Games) Kickoff Times Release (Thursday 5/29)

    Probably not ideal to have a road game at Maryland and then come back for a short week and a road game at Minnesota.

    In San Diego Whales Vagina…

    North county is great - towns like Encinitas, Solana Beach. Pizza Port has great pizza and beer. Breweries are everywhere and lots of tour companies will take you to a few. USS Midway. Kayaking off of La Jolla. The Safari Park is more unique than the zoo but it’s further away and can be...

    These idiots put our 2025 win total at 7.5

    On the audible podcast this week they each did their top 5 most confident win total bets and Bruce Feldman had us with the overs. So basically a done deal.

    From Herm Edwards to Chad Morris, ranking college football's 15 worst coaching hires of the past decade

    When Riley left, we were one year removed from a 9-win season and a bowl game. When Frost left, we were 6 years removed from a 9-win season and a bowl game. It’s not close. No program is better off for 5 consecutive losing seasons from one coach. No program is better off for having the...

    From Herm Edwards to Chad Morris, ranking college football's 15 worst coaching hires of the past decade

    Oh. “Some other people wanted” him to come here and make so much money he’d never need to work again. Well, what a relief that he bears no responsibility for coming and doing a historically shitty job. It was “some other people” who made him do it. I am dumbfounded that we have fans who wish...

    From Herm Edwards to Chad Morris, ranking college football's 15 worst coaching hires of the past decade

    This writer seems to be going by the results and not what was available at the time of the hire. And that being the case, there is literally no argument that Riley’s tenure was worse that Frost’s. Riley made bowl games. Riley won nine games. Riley had a winning season. Frost had the worst...

    2025 NFL Draft

    Any chance we could get a punter or kicker taken before Sanders?

    Fred tried very hard to keep some of these guys employed!

    If you were NU AD would you move on from Hoiberg?

    Just an awful investment. Glad someone outside of Nebraska noticed.

    If you were NU AD would you move on from Hoiberg?

    Obviously he’s staying but it’s wild that we can dress up one ncaa appearance in six years. He’s the 28th highest paid coach in the country. That’s a colossal overspend for the results. Maybe Nebraska can’t expect better than dancing 1-2x a decade. But if that’s the case, you don’t need to...

    2024-25 NCAA Tournament Bracketology/Bubble Watch

    Seems like a decent chance Omaha will get a win in the dance before Lincoln.
