It's Ok. Go With that. Make sure you ignore that BYU lost its starting QB, NFL prospect at NG, MLB (lasts years leading tackler), and their returning Safety. Prior to those injuries it wasn't looking good.

Hill didn't go out until well into the 4th Q and Nebraska had the lead.

Texas are underachievers. Deal with it.

Some of the best players on Ohio State last year when they won the national title:

Ezekiel Elliott - rFr
Joey Bosa - Soph
JT Barrett - rFr
Jalin Marshall - rFr
Vonn Bell - Soph
Darron Lee - rFr
Eli Apple - rFr
Raekwon McMillan - Fr
Curtis Samuel - Fr
Dontre Wilson - Soph
Tyvis Powell - Soph
Billy Price - Fr
Pat Elflein - Soph

Again, that is an absolute load of bullshit.
Cannot compare OSU and TX. Meyer is in his 4th yr at OSU. Strong is in yr 2. OSU has the pick of the litter in the Midwest. TX has 3 other schools to compete for talent in its state alone. Plus Oklahoma. Strong booted a lot of guys in yr 1.

You are comparing apples to oranges. No matter how vehemently you disagree.

I don't hate Texas. In fact I do respect your program.

However, I do dislike many of your posters on this board. Many of them suck ass.

As for recruiting, it should be embarrassing for you to ever finish outside of the top 5 for your program.

Clearly English is not this idiots first language. Love Nebraska fans talking shit about Tejas . Aren't you 0-1 just like tejas?

I mentioned 4. You lost at home to a gutted BYU team. Fact you could not run the ball until injuries took hold could be a harbinger of things to come.

Not to mention the prior coaxh left for NCAA reasons at OSU and incompetence at Texas. Meyer inherited a solid program to build on. Strong needs to build a foundation first

That was last years tOSU roster. Meyer was only in his 3rd season.

Meyer's 1st season: (12-0)
Meyer's 2nd season: (12-2)
Meyer's 3rd season: (14-1)

Strong's 1st season: (6-7)
Strong's 2nd season: (0-1) 35 point loss

Yep and look at the schedules for both. TX is 100% more difficult.

Still comparing two completely different programs with different circumstances. Cannot do that.

Nebraska lost on a Hail Mary, not by 35. They don't have the $$$$ Texas has, they don't have the recruiting base Texas has.

Nebraska has a 1st year head coach
Texas has a 2nd year head coach.

Compare Strong at Louisville to Strong at TX. He went 7-6, 7-6, and then 11-2. Have to give him more than 13 games people.

LMAO

That is the difference between 12 wins and 6 wins?

That is the difference in losing by 35?

That is the difference in the offense scoring 3 points?

So you are happy you lost to BYU at home, because Texas has more money than Nebraska and lost by more? You hold on to those moral victories.

You'd think the day after your team lost you'd be just a little less of an asshole. But no , you come here talking shit about tejas when you're both 0-1.

That is an absolute crock of shit.

You're making it sound like Mack Brown only recruited guys with character flaws and criminal records. He brought in a lot of highly regarded players, and the majority of them are still there. Strong booted some guys, sure, but with the classes Texas regularly got under Brown, there's no excuse for Strong's performance. There's talent there, he just doesn't know what to do with it.


No, Mack Brown didn't ONLY recruit guys with character flaws and criminal records, he didn't recruit at all. He brought in a lot of highly regarded players according to the media. The truth is that Mack Brown only had one "great" recruiting year. 2002. That was it. He had some good years, but the media turned those into great years that just wasn't true.
Strong's performance is not in question yet. Too soon. You guys blame the coaches way to much for on the field performance. Yes, coaches are important, but so is talent. You have to have some th0roughbreds to be able to compete at a national level. I've never seen a jackass win the Kentucky Derby. We don't have any thoroughbreds right now. Strong has had one year recruiting. Can he bring them in, maybe or maybe not. The one thing I will tell you is that it's way too soon to know. You can't turn a program around in one year. That's crazy.

We need an official "your team sucks more than mine" thread for these conversations.

Nope. Not happy Nebraska lost on a Hail Mary at home with a 1st year coach.

Just laughing at the typical underachieving Texas getting blown the fuck out by 35.
