Is it just me or is Nebraska a better football team without Taylor Martinez.



Sure seems that way sometimes. Hard to judge though when backup didn't really play anyone good either.


Play calling was REALLY shitty for the majority of the game as well.

If Pelini wants a job at Nebraska he better win out now

Uncle Rico shouldn't have been on the field today. Bo PeLLLLini ran himself out of town with his stubbornness to keep playing him.

I have watched Martinez for years now. He never has impressed me with anything.
Looked like the team played better for the backups when he was hurt.

I don't understand Pelini at all

If NU doesn't Kiffen Pelini, I don't know what else to say......it's NEVER going to get better than this with him as HC.

Does anyone understand the guy? Pelini's seat is about as hot as it can get now. We are gonna have to pull out something out of our ass for him to keep his job IMO.

Congrats to any Gopher fans here, they deserved the win. They really were the better team today.

I was saying in the Nebraska board game thread that I was expecting Shawn Eichorst (NU AD) to be heading to Minnesota around 3rd quarter to tell Pelini to walk the fuck home.

If they fire him midseason, it will reflect very poorly on their program. Bo hasn't been a good HC, but he's not a train wreck. They are consistently solid. This is one of only two losses he's ever had against teams which aren't good. He should be fired at year's end, but no program should fire a guy who is 54-22 overall mid-season.

Remember when Nebraska had the vaunted, "Black Shirt" defense?

Um, what the hell happened?

Someone bleached them too much back in '09. They look kinda grayish-pink now.
