Yay! We get a suicide watch thread! Hooray for us!

I’m saying it again.

Only thing that would make it worse would be if the D imploded.

from Iowa State. They did not freak under the pressure of 80,000+ fans. The did not turn the ball over. Their D came up big when it needed to. Nebraska gave the game to them, but they were there to take it. All of us have seen underdogs not take advantage of mistakes made by the favorite. Iowa State did.

what to say about this one.

Paul Rhoads – made some nice comments about us at the end of the game and about his own team. Hopefully Pelini can keep himself a little cool after this one.

8 TO’s. 8. Eight.

the post-game on TV and I have never seen Nebraska fans sitting like this in the stadium stunned. Husker Nation has to stick together. That was a message the team tried to show with their arms linked when they came on the field. Everybody, it was worse when BC was here!!!!!

My Nebraska co-worker just broke down. He’s not happy at all. Especially after last week. I’m doing everything I can to cheer him up.

Sorry guys, better luck next week.

Next up, OU vs KU. OU up by 7 in the 1st.

thing that needs to happen this week. You hate to see coaches throwing players under a bus, but at the same time, they need to stop letting them off the hook, too.

they won’t ask such stupid questions this week.

really really short.

or the BC days of ‘07 would be back quickly. Absolutely terrible…….F minus. I can’t blame this on Zac Lee, but he didn’t help the cause either. I would rather bench Lee and play Green the rest of the season and take my lumps than watch Lee continually throw high and behind players. There is a reason Lee was a transfer from Junior College and Cody Green was a 5 star prospect out of Texas and that’s just pure ability and talent.

season……

one point loss on the road after a big play
one big win on the road in a biblical flood downpour, scoring 27 points in the 4th.
okay… Texas Tech kicked our ass
then 8 TO’s against a team we haven’t loss at home to in 34 years.

shit.

I really like how Ndamukong Suh handles himself with the press.

seriously. i’m going to get more beer. because i’m out.

and then i’ll be back. unless one of my neighbors makes a comment to me. then I’ll kill them, and force the police to go on a high speed chase. I won’t be taken alive. sunsabitches anway.

when Nebraska replaced their starting QBs with Freshman QBs mid-season (Turner Gill in 1981 and Tommie Frazier in 1992) they turned out pretty good. Hopefully, there will be more emphasis in recruiting some top level high school RBs and WRs and let them know they are coming here to start immediately and will not redshirt. Cody Green is going to need it.

A penny for Alex Henery’s thoughts. :/

At least KU is sucking up at home as well. OU just returned an INT for a touchdown. 14 OU 0 KU.

the blue light is on at K-Mart and and gun sales have dramtically increased in the past hour in Greater Nebraska and parts of the midwest region.

are…. as I’m guessing, are most Husker fans going to just saunter off and do something else, perhaps something harmless, like go pheasant hunting, or bowling, or lock themselves in the bathroom with a spoon?

the biggest problem with this offense is they haven’t anything on which they can depend. nothing.

the defense has several things on which they can depend. Offense, nothing.

Kick a field goal as soon as the offense gets within 55 yards of range, regardless of what down it is.

…is Iowa state “back”?!
But seriously, to folks stating their comparisons of this fallout to that of the Callahan era, I will say this:
the end results are actually strikingly similar…we have a one-dimentional team, headed by a coach who appears to give little more than lip service to the aspect of the game that falls outside his personal area of genius. We remain a solid unit on one side of the ball and a laughingstock on the other…with the same middling results to show for it in thw w/l column.
The only difference being that instead of a passine, ineffectual bead coach we now have…well, let’s just say the opposite.
Also, zac lee should be benched, if but for no other reason than that he cannot his the broad side of a barn with any frequency for any sustained period of time…all of his pics today resulted from his inability to hit receiver anywhere that they don’t have to flail through the air to try and at least get their hands on it. Hence your several drive-killing tipped ints that some would seem to suggest were not Lee’s fault at all.
Pitiful…

“Zac Lee’s not the problem…we didn’t play well around Zac Lee today.”
Or last week, or the week before that…Is it just me, or does he just kind of contridict himself right there. To me, that just sort of sums up why Green should be given a chance to lead this team. But what do I know…I’m just a stupid fan who’s fixated on what happens on the field on Saturdays! I’m sure Lee lights it up in practice and in meetings! I guess we have to actually lose to Iowa state at home just to prove to ourselves that our stubborn coaches know best!
Where was all this talk about “every position being open”? All I saw was the exact same guys doing boneheaded shit.

normally I would be giddy after something like this. Losing AT HOME to an ISU team playing without their two best players?? That’s rough, but Dan Hawkins has killed the part of me that actually “feels.” Hope you guys are enjoying Shawn Watson, he’s a helluva coach, huh? (I wouldn’t of brought that up if he didn’t bad-mouth us earlier this year) Should be a barn burner day after Thanksgiving. Ugh…

I couldn’t catch the game out here in the desert, but I fired up the Gamecast on ESPN and then left to run some errands. I got back shortly after the game ended. This was my reaction.
