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
If he's leaving at the end of the year, it's a negotiated settlement retirement.
 
Looking at those stats @Alum-Ni posted, I seriously can’t believe they’re 9-2. Does anyone have the analytics of what their record should be? I’m thinking of something like back in 2021 when there was the bar graph showing we should’ve been 7-5, not 3-9.

10-1

The got jobbed vs. Minny.
 
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.
If you were Cockeye would you really care about this game...it's a dumb trophy (I'm retired military and I think it's dumb) the only motivation for Cockeye is maybe Kirk's last regular season game, spoil our chances at a bowl game, and a stupid trophy. Am I missing something?

other than they want to push our shit in...b/c it could be Kirk's last regular season game, spoil our chances at a bowl game, and a stupid trophy
 
With our ST and passing as bad as they are we may not score.
You know, Chubba has given me new hope for our passing game.
Saturday night when he dropped back, I found myself thinking, "Might be a big play coming for us," instead of my usual, "Oh, god. Please don't thrown an interception." There was a twinge of excitement with each pass play instead of the usual dread.

Did you just suggest that the Cockeyes might not really care about beating Nebraska?
I don't think that's the way things work over there. Esepcially since we won last year and kept them out of the B1G title game. And, as you said, the possibility of being Kirk's last game has to add fuel to the fire as well.
 
Game day ready for my Friday afternoon ride around CouncilTucky:

The only real question remaining: How will we find a new and interesting way to fuck up and give the game away this week?
What in the Holy fuck does one search for that gif response? I worry about you bro…and if I’m honest, tip of the hat. Weirdly respect you for that little gem.

All that and Ferentz & son hate Nebraska. They won't overlook this game and don't want to lose it.
