Is this board dying?
- Thread starter Antwill
- Start date
The post I replied to (it wasn’t yours by the way) discussed our schedule and bye weeks - we have a very favorable conf schedule
if you didn’t find my post of interest you could have simply not responded instead of thundering in with a post that was completely wrong
Like I posted buy a Nebraska media guide and you’ll understand where I found it..Not Nebraska fault other Big teams didn’t schedule a bye before conference play started.. That’s how Nebraska schedule their season..
Technically, Purdue opens with Penn State, and then has a bye week prior to Iowa.
Indiana opens with Illinois, and has a bye week prior to Penn State.
Penn State opens with Purdue, and has a bye week prior to Minnesota.
Not "traditional" bye weeks, but fact is, those teams that open are coming off bye weeks.
I'm just as interested in the idea, the week before playing NU, Rutgers takes on Ohio State.
Wisconsin takes on Iowa the week before NU.
Indiana takes on Cincinnati the week before NU.
Back in the day, that used to matter.
And if Nebraska and Oklahoma scheduled their game on Sept 24th instead of the 17th this would be a moot point..
Technically, that's correct. So does Northwestern.
That's why I said, "not traditional" bye weeks, but week off from playing an opponent nevertheless.
Is it really a point worth arguing?
NW does not have a bye week prior to 3 conf games by your criteria
if it isnt worth arguing about then don’t argue about it … but if you are it would be nice if your arguments were at least factual
Oh god no - will someone who isn’t blocked please reach out to him and convey my deepest apologies and regrets. Please tell him I promise never again to point out when he posts things that aren’t factual
Redmish,
Reading comprehension is your friend.
Your juice is really not worth the squeeze. I will probably follow suit.

Just think… they’d still be 3 wins short of that loser Riley’s 2016 team. Yikes.

Looking back to last season and the OU game...I'm so glad we didn't end up pussin out on that....it sets up really great for us this year with all their turnover, assuming we get off to a great start and beat the **** out of NW!! Let's get this show on the road!!!

completely agree
there were some outspoken posters saying we should pull out of that game for economic reasons
they should feel like real horse's asses
Some outspoken poster suggested our quarterback hang themself after the Purdue debacle.
That poster is the real horse’s ***.

"This board" will likely come alive IF they beat OU.
It will be things like, see, I told you they had recruited well, it was such a mess from Riley, I told you it would take 5 years, the Huskers are back, Trev can relax now, they should be rated in the top 10, get the extension ready and those that questioned Frost should be excommunicated from the board.
The lurkers and pumpers will have something to crow about, it will be fun.

I predict this board will be more active this year into next if Frost goes 5-7 versus 8-4
OP, don’t take this as being a smart *** because I am not. I understand what you’re going through and wish you Godspeed in finding peace
Sadly, I wasn't on this board to extend my sympathies.
After reading the entire thread, I am amazed at the humanity, words of encouragement, and genuine show of support for so many of these guys who help make this board what it is.
I continue to tell my adult son the personalities on this board are amazing.
