    What was this about? Donovan and Fickell

    Nah, I’ll leave that to people offended by coaches exchanging heated words on a football field, thanks. If you need some, though, I’m sure the Black Friday sales this week will have something that fits the bill.

    What was this about? Donovan and Fickell

    The horror! Something not so nice…in a rivalry game…on a football field. If I had a pearl necklace, best believe I’d be clutching it at the very thought. Short of a threat of physical bodily harm, there was no reason for what looks like a Wisconsin rent-a-cop to grab a Nebraska coach like that...

    Cheering for OU

    Colorado for me. If the 1986 Miami Hurricanes were somehow resuscitated with Jimmy Johnson accepting Jameis Winston as his top NIL portal pick, I’d still root for them to win a bowl game if they were playing Colorado.

    If we beat Iowa Friday

    Man, you are confident af about this game! I can’t quite get there based on what I’ve seen, but I like it. Hope you’re right.

    If we beat Iowa Friday

    The secondary has been prone to giving up big plays regardless of the opposing QB’s skill level. It would not surprise me at all to see our defense geared up to stop the run at all costs—against THAT team in THAT weather—only to have their 4th string quarterback connect over the top for a...

    If we beat Iowa Friday

    In year 2 of a complete rebuild: 7 wins, ending the bowl game drought, and setting things right against Colorado, Wisco, and Iowa? Yes. I would take that.

    7-5 Starts Today

    You called it. You also told us early not to expect too much this year—that year 2 is about a bowl and year 3 is the Rhule breakthrough, Credit to you for being levelheaded throughout the season. Meanwhile, I was busy getting overly hyped about the Colorado game and losing my shite after UCLA.

    Give Holgerson Whatever TF he wants.

    I’ll personally mow his lawn every day, even in January.

    Matt Rhule rocks

    I absolutely hate the body language and lack of energy he’s shown in the past couple press conferences. WTH is that?? Yes, we’ve had brutal losses, and this is a dark time. But Rhule hasn’t looked right since the Indiana game, so… that’s it? One blowout road loss to a surprisingly decent Hoosier...

    Husker Despair

    There may be a kernel of truth to this, but mainly if we’re talking about another run similar to the 90s. Nobody realistically expects that. But Nebraska won games outside of the Devaney and Osborne runs. We have over 900 wins all-time and rank top 10 in that regard. If we “claimed” as many...

    Jack Del Rio resigns from Wisconsin over DUI

    There was also the infamous ax incident when he was head coach at Jacksonville. To reiterate his “Keep Chopping Wood” mantra for the team, Del Rio decided to bring a double-bladed ax and an old tree stump into the team locker room as seasonal props. Long story short, the ax blade would...

    Holgerson N (formerly known as: "Holgerson soon to be named OC")

    Didn’t HBK say he was going to be in Rome or Italy for like a month? We kind of need him back for this news cycle. Wondering if the university plane could make a quick overnight stop at Milan Malpensa.

    USC benching QB Moss

    I will say this: it does seem awfully interesting how many teams face Nebraska this year coming off a bye week. Even when we have a bye weekend, the other team we face is coming off a bye, too. It’s almost as if the conference is sticking it to us or something.

    Solution

    Well, that’s the problem. If Rhule doesn’t see it (or won’t see it), we’re screwed. Eichorst forcing Diaco on Riley. Trev hiring Whipple for Frost. I hear what you’re saying, but I honestly can’t think of too many situations where an AD has successfully forced his own hire on a head coach and...
