***Official don’t buy any bullshit they try selling you, offseason thread***

The biggest intrigue for me this year is how a team that I fully expect to go 3-9 will still manage to let me down.

I’ve dropped the bar so incredibly low that nothing should be able to disappoint me but something says these guys have it in them.
 
Whip’s gonna AIR IT OUT in Lincoln baby. Betts and Fidone who? 30 mph winds every day who? Hard as a rock footballs in November who?

TO was such a moron for RUNNING the stupid ball for 30 years. Never work in “today’s game”. Glad we are bringing this PASS ATTACK back.

This x1000...it has been unbelievable how many different ways Frost and his teams figure out how to fuck things up. Maybe this year Casey Thompson will throw a pick six first play of the game? Our transfer punter will magically kick the ball backwards over his head? Any other ideas?

Frost's soft, hairbrained offense has turned me into a run the grawdamn ball guy.

Says 15 hours ago. Also says A2M transferred to TCU, thus adding to the credibility.
I skimmed it. Was being a smart ass though, but I'm sure there is an article just like that from last summer.

Also noticed numerous errors. Like this gem "I know they’ve Oklahoma game four, but things don’t really heat up until November."

Do these dudes that write online just not fucking read their articles before publishing? I mean for fuck's sake...I skimmed the thing and picked that up quickly.

There probably was. They know they can write any little puff piece with zero substance about Nebraska and our tater-base will click it.

You can't make it as an online publisher without a pulse and a domain name

Nothing would be surprising with Frost and this team. Nothing. I can see the scenario you presented happening unfortunately.
 
I can't wait to watch Frost shit the bed in Ireland and blame it on not getting the game moved to a different location. I will be surprised if we win more than 4 - 5 games this year. Anything more than that would be a surprise to me.
I mean I wouldn't say I'm excited about that scenario but it does seem like a good possibility.
 
The Frost prediction formula,
If it’s bad: it will happen.
If it’s good: it won’t happen.
That's 100% my expectation. @11husker23 makes it sound like he's excited for it. I'll still be depressed even if it means moving on from Frost is ultimately the better scenario.

The unrealistic best case scenario is Frost becomes a good coach and wins. I still buy lottery tickets once in a while knowing my chance of winning is so close to zero it effectively is zero.

Honestly, as long as the seasons outcome makes it perfectly obvious what needs to happen moving forward I'll be happy.

Hoping for a 8-9 win turnaround and a top-20 recruiting class, though.
