Stat wise they have a better defense than we do in many categories.
It will not take much to give them the game. If we can run at all I will be amazed. With our ST and passing as bad as they are we may not score.

Well, last year they had to beat us to win the West and that didn't work out. I feel they'll be looking ahead to Michigan or tOSU and won't care about this game.

It’s not. He’s going to be around for at least two more years

A lot of people think he's out after this year. You saw him after the game? He couldn't make it to the post-game press conference for 90 minutes.

I was there with my wife's family - he didn't give the place a second look walking off the field.
Couple things the guy is still chasing:
1. He's about two good years away from being the winningest head coach in big ten history
2. He needs to win two of the last three to be the eligible for the HOF if he were to retire this year. You need a 60% win percentage and he's at 59.5% - no shit. He'll have to beat either Missouri, Ole Miss, LSU, Michigan, or Ohio State regardless of how Black Friday goes. Do the math. They don't really waive that requirement either. Mike Leach and Joe Tiller are both excluded

I'm one of them.
I think Kirk and Phil leave together. He's always emotional after games, but nothing like the last two.
Phil cried in the Lockeroom. That shit never happens.

He was on the sideline crying his eyes out before the end of the game - close-up on television

Cockeye many win the battle, the game, but Nebraska will win the war, bitching about officials

It's pretty reasonable to assume that had a lot to do with the Brian dynamic - he's good for one or two of those a season anyway.

I think he had another emotional win & my Cockeye buddies were saying he was retiring. I’m betting on the Brian Ferentz last season being the reasons why & not retirement. I don’t think he wants to do the university any favors & walk from, what 40mil

We also had Trey Plamer last year which single handedly won us that game. We don't have anyone close to that caliber this year and that's being nice. The only one close Washington is injured and Kemp if he weren't 3'5

That’s why it’s hard for me to be super critical of the offense and the play calling this year. Not just at WR, play making in general. It’s gotta be a huge uphill battle game planning based on that.
