I am your friend though.You’re not my dad
Welcome to The Platinum Board. We are a Nebraska Husker news source and fan community.

But we understood that last year was more about hole in the pop corn tub lubed up hands Jeff simms and a tired defense because of that than it was a talent or matchup issue.We did it with Colorado last year too as they were beating us. But we were right - CU did suck (they were 4-8).
With Cockeye, I do feel like most posters admit they have a good program and well run program. Just some terrible decisions on offensive personnel. And they're all gay.
Thanks Black DeanBtw everyone thank @Black Dean extra special this week. He is/was heading out of town and fit it into his schedule before leaving.
You can throw in Minnesota too. They have become quite annoying.I wish Cockeye fans and Colorado fans would meet for a fight to the death that ends in a tie.
I kind of have the mad men mentality with Minnesota...."I don't think about you at all"You can throw in Minnesota too. They have become quite annoying.
I'm a Minnesota alum (grad school) so it's weird to me because I know a bunch of gopher fans and they're all pretty casual and laid back. My old roommate grew up in the Twin Cities and he was texting me on Sunday about how much better Nebraska looks so far this year. I feel like they just have a small message board community there that only attracts the psychos. After all, Minneapolis is a huge city and most of the residents and Minnesota alums move onto the Vikings, Twins, Wolves, Wild after they graduate.I kind of have the mad men mentality with Minnesota...."I don't think about you at all"
Btw everyone thank @Black Dean extra special this week. He is/was heading out of town and fit it into his schedule before leaving.
That means Cockeye would have to schedule someone outside of their typical ‘two power puff FCS schools’ and Cockeye State.I wish Cockeye fans and Colorado fans would meet for a fight to the death that ends in a tie.
Between that one and Debbie, it’s hard to say which is the sickest burn.Nostalgic to see CU fans throw out the epic blast, “Fuskers” again. Reminds me of a simpler time.
- The Fuskers have player continuity going for them. That's the risk with relying on the portal... teamwork vs talent. Guys that have worked together for long enough get to know each other and perform as a total unit, we don't have that yet.
I love that he puts the qualifier of “yet”… as if Deion has any plans for continuity. *IF* he is there next season, the turnover is going to be pretty wild on that team again!Nostalgic to see CU fans throw out the epic blast, “Fuskers” again. Reminds me of a simpler time.

Yep. He gone.I love that he puts the qualifier of “yet”… as if Deion has any plans for continuity. *IF* he is there next season, the turnover is going to be pretty wild on that team again!
Yea, I put money on him being gone, but they’ll lose the vast majority of their offensive production, and 8 defensive starters whether he is there or not. All their starting WR corp and 3 offensive linemen along with Shadeur… that team will SUCK!Yep. He gone.
All of Ferentz’s success is based on development & ya can’t build QBs/WRs. Change offensive personnel & I think you’d see Cockeye looking a lot like Wisconsin with #2ndChoice, which is different but not much better.We did it with Colorado last year too as they were beating us. But we were right - CU did suck (they were 4-8).

But at least it's a respectable program. What Deion is doing is not respectable.All of Ferentz’s success is based on development & ya can’t build QBs/WRs. Change offensive personnel & I think you’d see Cockeye looking a lot like Wisconsin with #2ndChoice, which is different but not much better.
Yea they are respectable. I was just saying I don’t think personnel changes will bring the change that a lot of Cockeye fans want to believe.But at least it's a respectable program. What Deion is doing is not respectable.
On another note, I do think Cockeye and Wisconsin are going to settle back into their perpetual MID zone over the next 10 yrs. They'll be good top 25 programs but they won't be elite top 10 like they've flirted with from time to time over the past 15 yrs.
Yeah, Sanders probably won't be there next season, but whether he leaves or not doesn't change the fact that they are going to be a very bad team next year.Yea, I put money on him being gone, but they’ll lose the vast majority of their offensive production, and 8 defensive starters whether he is there or not. All their starting WR corp and 3 offensive linemen along with Shadildo… that team will SUCK!
Cockeye and elite should never be used in the same sentence in a positive manner. Every time they touch an elite team they get ass raped into next week.But at least it's a respectable program. What Deion is doing is not respectable.
