Really wish there was an ignore feature. Your schtick has never been funny and you should be embarrassed by how terrible it is. If you’re going to have a schtick at least make it funny.
There is an ignore feature but you can't ignore mods bro lol

Also Doc's schtick is great you sumbitch

I picked NU to lose but didn't expect this team to flatline and embarrass themselves. It makes me worry that the rest of the season could go quickly south. This team could easily go on an extended losing streak and risk bowl eligibility, which happened last season. UCLA is making late season improvements while NU is just making instagram hype videos.

I'm not for firing everyone but an off-season shakeup of parts of the staff is in order and not an over reaction. That's the business of football.

This isn't an over reaction. The loss to Illinois, which is showing to be a pretty good team, is one thing. The total meltdown in OT was sadly predictable, but man was is it bad... bad, bad.

Getting beat by Indiana on the road is one thing. First off, we didn't really know enough about Indiana to know if they were a fraud or not, so hard to call that one IMO. But to get our doors completely blown off like we did - again, bad.... bad, bad.

The sad part is, most of the rest of the B1G is trending up/improving a bit at least. And we are definitely trending down. That shit has to stop. Same thing year after year after year - we fold our tents mid season if not sooner. At least we beat Cockeye when Trey Palmer was basically unstoppable.

We basically have no chance this saturday. Realistically we should be hoping for a "good" showing - like a 35 to 14 loss or something. That's depressing to say, but reality.

After the OSU game, we have to beat UCLA. Just not an option to lose to them. Then USC, Wiscy and Cockeye - none "easy" games. We will not be favored in any games the rest of the way except for UCLA.

So we need to show a pulse against OSU. Beat UCLA. And at least hold our own in our last 3 games, hopefully winning at least one of those.

Those are realistic goals. Anything better than that - like losing to OSU then winning out - probably fantasy land.

We got worked by Indiana. It sucks, but it happens. Sure, early in the year we were projected to have an easy schedule, but two of those "easy" games, Illinois and Indiana, have turned out to be pretty good top 10-20 teams. Beat UCLA and one of Wisconsin, Cockeye or USC, and you have performed in line with most people's expectations going into the year (and, for better or worse, the best Nebraska season since 2016). Win 3/4 and you have a good building block for next season.

Let this loss snowball, and for sure, we have some problems that raise questions going into 2025.
