Most of the time when I make these threads, I'm talking about how we just lost and we have to deal with it......

But we fucking won today! Drink and be happy! Because we didn't deserve to win that football game. We found a way though, and we should feel very fortunate.

Now we need to hope for a miracle. Hope that somehow we figure out in 1 week how to stop turning the ball over.......how to stop shanking punts (even though Maher had an EXCELLENT game otherwise).........etc, etc....

If we conquer those things, and play Defense fundamentally sound like we did today (with the exception of a couple big plays we gave up), we can beat Michigan.

If we beat Michigan, roses start to sprout. Do ye get the picture I'm paintin' here?

Reality is, yes.....we are lucky to win today. But we did win.......and our goals are STILL right there in front of us. Let's try to be optimistic this week and hopefully we can get a huge win next weekend.

I raise my glass to Huskers, and to Husker fans........CHEERS! GO BIG RED!

Husker Fans are theeeee BEST & most supportive fans in the nation..........."FACT"


Chicago Tribune - Wildcats give up what's expected

Nor did Colter complain about the indignity of facing a home-field disadvantage on the potential game-winning drive. At least half the crowd of 47,330 represented the visiting team — enough to wonder if Cornhuskers fans would rush the field at the end of the game. Hearing chants for Nebraska coach Bo Pelini was bad enough.

The Big Red Army made so much noise after Nebraska took the lead that Northwestern players needed to use a "silent count'' during the 2-minute drill because they couldn't hear the cadence.

What bothers me most is just how far away Nebraska is coaching wise from the top level coaches.

we re in the B1G boys where you can beat the piss out of a ranked team one week and have a cellar dweller make you look like a freakin joke the next.



I ve got some sad news, there isnt a Big 8 conference anymore and we may never go undefeated again.

Bo loves him some Ciante Evans. I cant really say anything bad about the guy lately.

Lord knows I'm not his biggest fan, but he hasn't really been blatantly beaten in a long time.

Personally I think that the more comfortable Bo gets with Beck the more time he will be able to invest into the defense.

I know Im a homer but I think we ll be fine.

There's nothing I want more than to see this team have an '09 esque late october-november push.

They won 5 in a row after two incredibly ugly losses. Blown out @ home vs TTU and then the ISU turnover debacle. Sure enough by the end of the season I had zero doubt in my mind that team could have hung with Alabama in the title game.
