Dug deep in your book of 'clever comebacks' for that one. LOL. Just keep it in mind next time you host them. It will pop into your skull when you least expect it 'they think I'm a douche'. I'm sure that moment will be hard for you. :)
Sure, it's selective, but it wasn't my timeframe. It was the time frame that a Nebraska reporter came up with, so it's hardly unfair or spun. The reason was logical. And your timeline is selective, as well, right?
Article in the Omaha Herald just covered this. Since the end of Nebraska's long successful run in 2001, (so, starting in 2002), Iowa has one less win and 3 less losses...
We aren't beating our chest about 8 wins, overall. We are thrilled with 8 wins after feeling like 5-7 was a distinct possibility. There is a mile of difference between those two thought processes.
