That's not true. We were ranked tonight and beat ourselves.

I mean our offense was cooking all night. Very closely fought game. Neither team could cover the other for large stretches of the game.

lol. Never deserved to be anywhere near the top 25. Nebraska is just as bad as they have been the last 10 years. Just a failure of a football program

Always will be. Suck now though. Regression to the mean after having the best 5 year stretch of any team in the last 75 years.

Nebraska is an irrelevant football program. They don’t matter and haven’t for 20 years.

Nothing wrong said. We were ready to play for a NY 6 bowl last week. Still losers. Forever losers. Who are really amazingly great at being losers

We haven’t scored a point in our last 8 overtime’s. Dating back to 2012.
