I understand there is nothing these guys can do right but what if there is not enough there to put together a decent roster. And cancer spreads. The less anyone with a BOP alliance is around the new players the better off the whole team will be. Just my opinion of course and I'm not out of KoolAid yet so go ahead. Rip it apart, tell me how I am lying and all that crap.

Honestly I just want this season to be over with. All a bowl game will do is prolong the misery.

I don't want to punish some of the players who do actually still give a sh!t, but I honestly would rather the team not go to a bowl at this point - even if they *qualified* for one. If there really is a rift between Bo's disciples and the rest, then staying home for the holidays and not having those infected represent the University is what I'd want. Most of Bo's guys will be gone either this year or next. Then we can think about moral victories and loser teams in bowls, etc.

I want a bowl game.

If we get to a bowl game it means we managed to turn the 2nd half of the season around and we knocked off a top 10 team in doing so.

And then there is the extra practice, the most important part. Carrying momentum over into next season en sech.

What they are saying is we only need 5 wins. If we go to a shit bowl it's because we are 5-7. It means we beat S. Alabama, Southern Miss, Minnesota, Purdue and Rutgers. I would rather call it a loss and move on. Fuck this season. THIS IS NOT NEBRASKA FOOTBALL!

There is a slim chance we could get in with 5 wins. I think RA posted the rules on that. We need to be a top 5 team in some Academic ranking shit.

We won't be.

Should fans take that attitude for the last two home games?

There is actually a very good chance. I addressed that a couple hours ago in this very thread.

Go back and read it.

If we beat Michigan State or Iowa it just reinforces the fact that these guys don't play unless they feel like it. I'm sorry but I am still so pissed about that game they gave away Saturday in front of the history of Nebraska football. Just end this season.

I ask again...

Should other fans throw in the towel and ensure the stadium is half empty for Michigan St and Iowa?

The team has thrown in the towel already. Why would you put a half empty stadium on the fans?

Sometimes I'm suspicious that 1620 reads this forum. A few minutes ago they were discussing this very issue.

Apparently Nebraska is #6 in APR and #'s 1-5 (other than Michigan who needs one more win) have already qualified.

Phil Steele apparently expects up to eight (5 win teams) to get bowl bids because there won't be enough 6 win qualifiers. Nebraska being #6 APR would be a lock with 2 more wins.

He had Nebraska slated for the Quick Lane Bowl against Va Tech as of the 20th October.

I assume that has changed since Nebraska's loss to Northwestern.

Here's the deal.

You don't let Bopleeny win. You don't let his minions win (if that's really going on). You don't do what they want you do to (quit). You don't lower yourself to their level.

You reward and support those giving 100% effort. That is winning.
