University at Buffalo Book report

Going to come right out and say it that if we lose to Buffalo then Frost should be fired really at any point now. I've been quiet for a lot of the last week or so cause Illinois took it out of me and I wasn't excited for Fordham at all. I am by no means on the Frost train anymore but I'm also not on the fire him right now train either. Just kinda don't care at this point. Sick of the same issues we see week after week, year after year. We lose on Saturday though, don't care what happens to Frost anymore then. That's a new low for me and it's a kick to the dick of everything that's been engrained in to me about Nebraska Football since I was a kid.

my advice is:
1) stop believing faux insiders and local Nebraska media telling you this team is the 85 Bears + 95 Skers and “figuring it out” and “in the best shape ever” every off season. They just copy/paste from the year before and change some names around.

2) Bet on the opposing team every week as an emotional hedge. If Nebraska football is going to make you an alcoholic at least have them pay the bill.
 
I feel like I will be more shocked if we win this game. I'm expecting a close one, 24-21 in the 4th and then buffalo with a late td to secure it.

31-21 buffalo.

Something like this is how I feel will go down.

lol straight to the point, good shit


1. I wouldn't say I totally buy into it. I do hope the good reports are legit and that it translates to Saturdays but I certainly don't hang my hat on them. I'm very much a common sense and logic guy and while I don't fully understand all X's and O's, I can certainly tell when a team has progressed or regressed. Just from opinions that I have and things that I know and things that I hoped would happen against Illinois, simply didn't happen. And in some cases, it was worse than it should have been. And those things can't happen in Year 4 regardless of who your HC is.

2. I don't legit gamble. I make stupid bets with friends but nothing of significance. I lost pretty big and learned a lesson in 2019 and haven't done it since then. Puked a lot in my buddy's front yard from booze to pay up the bet. Drank pretty hard after Colorado 2019 but don't normally do that.
 
Something to keep in mind when you look at the results of Buffalo's game last week: Between the 2019 and 2020 seasons, Wagner won a total of one game. Out of 358 D-1 schools, Wagner is the 7th smallest. Wagner's stadium seats 3300, and that's over 1000 more than the size of their whole student body. You think Fordham was a pushover? Fordham is more than seven times Wagner's size. Milford has about the same number of people as Wagner College, and Milford could probably beat them in football.

I was going to say, Fordam would have beat Wagner by 50. I still think we're going to lose but ya Wagner is dog shit bad.
 
If the O-Line doesn't give 2AM time, then this will be ugly.
OL blows butthole.

I tend to like dudes that I listen to at coaching clinics, and I saw Austin speak at one and was really good. That said, why aren't his guys better? And what the fuck are they doing sometimes. I've tried to be an apologist basically for him....but I can't do it. There are too many things with the OL play that pisses me off. Is it an Austin kind of sucks thing? Is it a Frost is hamstringing Austin by telling him who plays wear, Is it a talent identifier issue? Is it a development issue? Is it the lack of pulling dudes that suck? I don't know, but I'd like to think it's a combo of the above that doesn't include Austin just sucking.
 
fuck they have a Riggins on their team? we are sooo fucked
Gotta be a different branch of the tree. John ... swung the other way.

Late 1991 I'm in DC on business, and one of the four guys I've hung around with since college wife was also in town on business, so we agree to go out and have dinner & drinks together. (Sorry, you bunch of degenerates, it was strictly dinner and drinks as they were still living in the Twin Cities and we were living in Atlanta at the time.)

We wind up in Georgetown and are just stopping into random bars, me having a beer and Janet having her usual glass of wine. It's late and we've had a few, and pretty soon the bartender we're chatting up basically asks us if we know what kind of bar we're in. Nope, just tipsy tourists and old friends who haven't seen each other in a while doing the Georgetown barhopping scene.

He gently informs us that we've wandered into a gay bar and encourages us to take a look around. Yep, pretty much all dudes.

Then he asks me if I recognize anyone and nods his head to the right. I look, and turn back to him with a confused look on my face.

Yep, he tells me, it's John Riggins and he's a regular in here. That's one of his regular younger boyfriends whose next to him.

We both kind of shrug our shoulders and move on to other chit chat with him, finish our drinks and leave.

Outside, Janet and I look at each other and at the same time go, "HOLY SHIT! JOHN RIGGINS!" Then we looked at each other and basically said, "So what. Where shall we go next?"
