So if NU and Illinois win out and play again in the CCG, will all the angst we are experiencing now be forgotten?

If they make it to a decent bowl, their HC will deserve conference coach of the year. To take over in the manner he had to?

Iowa has been in control but failing to finish drives. Iowa was inside the 5 twice but only has 3 points to show for it.

Iowa 299 total yards.
Illinois 121 total yards.

End of the game if Illinois, who is down one score after an impressive first drive of the second half, total yards and not finishing drives will be the story of how Illinois bent not broke.

Illinois is not a good team...PERIOD. Iowa is having an up year, but it is very very beatable. If the Huskers could somehow get their offense working, we could actually beat some of these teams in the West Big10. Lost opportunities..........

The good news is our game is on ESPN2 after IA/IL (here in CA) and doesn't look like this game is going into OT

Awwwww, isn't that cute. You guys were cheering for us to lose.......but........we did not pull a Nebraska. By the way, we are now bowl eligible. How about you guys?
Don't act like herkie is in the Top 10. You're still herkie that plays the same crappy teams we do. And you're not exactly impressive in doing it. Herkie just happens to be on the right side of all the close games like we're on the wrong side.

If Iowa can get out of Evanston with a W then look out. If Iowa played Nebraska next week in Lincoln my money would be on Nebraska.

Iowa found ways to lose those close games the last couple of years. Now they are finding ways to win them. Speaks to the kids and the coaching turning a corner and the change at QB was huge. Neb isnt as bad as their record this year. Should be a fun last 6 games.

IF...big if, Iowa pulls out a win in Evanston, i could see them running the table. Losing Ott for the year is going to be a huge blow to a team that wasnt a good pass rushing team in the first place.

Scoreboard
Dude the scoreboard is 2-4 vs. 6-0. Why are always so worried about Iowa? You should be worried about what's going on with us.

Nope. Scoreboard is 3-1....dude. Not worried about Iowa at all....if they come to the NEBRASKA board to talk **** I'm going to remind them that we own them. Is the cool dude?

It's cute to see how badly you hate the Hawkeyes, but all of your hope and hatred didn't help the Illini win. Anyway, you've got the Wisconsin game to look forward too ..... oops, that didn't work out either.

Instead of starting yet another thread about a team that most of you supposedly don't care about, you might better spend your time helping to fight the Lincoln dumpster fire ...
Says the guy talking **** on board that his team is 1-3 against the last 4 years. Scoreboard.
