Run along troll, rent free, etc. are tired & worn responses that people typically use when they have nothing good to say. I'm not trolling, either. I'm being serious when I say 6,9,4 UNL 12-8-8 Iowa - wins the past three seasons. A bar so low only Illinois & Rutgers hope to rival.

Dude, I thought you were peace-ing out? Back so soon? Laughing

You sound nervous. Otherwise, why would you be so worried about poor little Nebraska? I mean, if Iowa is in control, what should you have to worry about it?

You knew it was coming, folks. The go-to play from the Iowa troll playbook... tightly setting the parameters to only look at the years that paint a favorable picture for Iowa. It's the same thinking that allows you to conveniently forget two losses when minting 12-0 friendship rings.

According to your logic, I'm sure NU's 29-16-3 advantage in the series doesn't count? Living in the past, amirite? (I won't even go into championships won because I know how easily you guys are triggered on that topic.)

Seriously, time to worry about your own team. Looks like they could use your help.

Response time 24 min? You must be sitting there hitting F5.

let me guess, the only time frame that matters when measuring a program's success starts in 2002?

Hmm true.

Started with Harbaugh's years to show the best team right now is very average overall. It goes in cycles. Only ones who can claim outside of that (since divisions were created) are OSU, Wisconsin, MSU. Everyone else gets to ride the 8 win average lines. That's life in the B1G. It's reality & it won't change until proven otherwise. It's easy to move hot air & it's currently going on with teams who fail to make bowl appearances.

'just you wait' is a hypothetical statement that holds zero weight in cfb. No one cares what you think you ought to be in your head. Only results matter.

Funny, NU had no problem winning 9 and 10 under Bo every year in the B1G, and he was a ****** coach that needed to be shown the door. He also went 3-1 against Iowa. If that was our standard of greatness, we could have made him our KF and kept beating Iowa like a drum. We strive for higher than that because we always have and always will. Even if that means taking a temporary step back.

It's hilarious that you fabricated a golden rule of parity involving a mythical 8-win glass ceiling (perfect for explaining away Iowa 8-5 mediocrity, of course) and then offer THREE exceptions to the rule. So wait, is that life in the B1G? Or just life in the B1G for Iowa and the other traditional have-nots?

So in other words, according to you, 25-30% of the teams in the conference aren't affected by the golden rule? So we're basically talking about general herding rules where a third of the teams are good, a third are average and a third are bad. Wow, thanks for that hard-hitting analysis. Good thing we have you here to tell us what is and isn't possible for programs based on the small sample window you self selected.

You haven't made any arguments here backed by anything other than your hatred, but then you demand hard evidence? Seriously, time for you to quit while you're behind. If you're so convinced NU will never be great again, you should have nothing to worry about it.

It's you guys that I'm worried about. You're losing your mind thinking you're still special.

There's really nothing more to say here. Everyone wants to string a bunch of 10-11 win seasons together, you're just farther from it than most.

Here's more hard, concrete evidence for you.

116-44 Iowa

2

Two

II

No demands, they stand alone as facts. Later.

These Iowa trolls that pound their chest over Farentz and 8 wins, conveniently forget that Bo Pelini won 9-10 every year and dominated Iowa. If we wanted to be Iowa heavy we could have been, not our nature. And now that we have found a staff that can get us back, they hate it. It’s like they are in a mad scramble to get in their shots, because they know they won’t be able to much longer.

No doubt about it. They obviously expected us to get blown out yesterday, not hold our own in the 'Shoe. Combine that with their division hopes all but vanishing and out comes the anger/fear masked as mockery.

Their agendas are transparent, their trolling is weak, their comedy is non-existent, etc., but here they are, every single day, lined up to pay NU the ultimate compliment: the lifetime gift of their undying jealousy and hatred.

Last thing, funny Purdue throttled UNL & OSU Laughing.
I would just like to take a moment and give congrats to Ferentz who just needs to eek out 2 more wins for his 8 win bonus. Iowa’s gold standard.

Serious question...how many P5 programs would keep a coach who has only won one division title in 8 years? I would think Iowa could do better but it would seem they are not interested in trying.

Their standards for everything are low/weak. Since when is beating someone by 14 points "throttling" them? Only in Hawkeyeland when you're used to (losing) games 13-7.

This particular troll is so lacking in self awareness, he literally said "Only results matter" just a few posts before inadvertently touting Iowa's "moral victory" of losing to Purdue by 12 points less than NU. Apparently that counts for something in the land of empty trophy cases and fictional friendship rings.

But since he brought up Purdue, here are some concrete results for him:


NU against Purdue the last two years: 1-1 (.500)
Iowa against Purdue the last two years: 0-2 (.000)

Nebraska against Purdue since joining the B1G: 4-2 (.667)
Iowa against Purdue since NU joined the B1G: 5-3 (.625)

Nebraska all time against Purdue: 4-3 (.571)
Iowa all time against Purdue: 38-48-3 (.444)


Even when they try to talk ****, they look incredibly stupid. Low standards for smack talk, trolling and five-second Google searches too, I guess.

My theory is that there is some angst building as they continue to lose to anyone with a pulse. Dropped right out of the top 25 today and there sits ISU at 14. Roflmao. That must really burn :p Where is that wonderful post about Iowa being the best team in the B1G? God the comedy on this board can be great at times.

Hmm yep. That had to feel awesome typing that out. The reality is UNL is in a league where anyone can beat anyone - doesn't matter the opponent. Least we forget Harbaugh won 10, 8, 7 before this season. KF went 12-8-8 same frame. This season there are plenty that will end up with 3 losses or more. While you can make fun of Iowa all you want, there is no evidence since joining the B1G that UNL is any different.
Harbaugh had two 10 win seasons. Slice it anyway you want the future is way brighter for us than it is for 7 win Kirk

Go for it. The rest view UNL as a has been. Kentucky from 4 states away even came over & blasted as has beens. That's what the real world thinks. Peace out, few games left to circle the wagons.

Hey Sherlock, did you notice it is always something like IU, UK, and UCF fans talking about how dead and buried cold-in-the-ground NU is?

You notice how it isn't UM, OSU, Bama or USC fans up in here talking about how Nebraska has a space all for itself in the Smithsonian for the world to marvel at?

Think about that one.

Yeah Kirk's fat little kid! You really slammed home on that post!
I’ll just go ahead and admit neither of our programs should be throwing stones. Iowa is certain sporting a much better record than Nebraska. But I do have faith and see glimpses of a good Nebraska team.

But in the end, we’re both dunces of a team.

No, game is in Iowa City. Yes I'll go to Iowa City on Black Friday.

Didn't say anything about 6 wins. I said something about 2 (two) (II).

You lost to Purdue. Your team sucks also. However , you are delusional and believe your team is good. Iowa always sucks. We keep telling you. When will you learn?

Your fan base has allowed Kirk Ferentz. I believe your next coach will be another Ferentz. I believe we fired Solich too early, and we may fail, but we aren't satisfied with mediocrity. Savor the last few years. You can tell your grand kids about your trolling efforts against the Huskers.

You're a ***** and a Hawk fan. Double lose.
