Huskers "It could be worse" thread

[Kburjr]

Won by 29? Yeah, that's much worse.

That 97 defense was sooooooo good, tho. Giving up 400+ yards to a G5 player had to hurt.

ummm wut, dummy?

Let me explain it for the guys in the back. The 97 team was so good that giving up 400+ yards to a single player in 98 must have been a shock.

On this date, 1998, Nebraska's defense took a big shit.

On this day in Husker history: Nebraska’s defense gives up 400+ receiving yards… to one player

The record still stands to this day.

Opening day after the GREAT 1997 team.

Nebraska won the game.

Nebraska won the game.

Duh. Defense is not the whole team. Why is this so hard for people?

That makes zero sense.

Not even the same team.

It seems you're struggling to troll here.

It seems you're struggling to troll here.

To go from 257 yards per game in 97 to 400+ yards to a single player is a shock, unless you have your excuses pre-made.
I don't give a fuck if it was Nebraska, Oregon or fuckin Podunk U

Unless you've lost Jason Peter, Grant Wistrom, Eric Warfield, Octavious McFarland, etc...

 

[Kburjr]

The stats speak for themselves.

No depth.

But you are right. Maybe the Georgia fans ought to pay attention.

 

[CoalTrain]

It could be worse, your defense could have enormous holes in it like this one:

Hold up, being told that IS your defense…

For that matter, Wisconsin fans. A great defense last year does not guarantee a great defense this year.

[Deep Creek]

To think that at one small period of time, Nebraska had given up the most receiving yards by a single player AND the most rushing yards by a single player.

I know how they feel. In 2000 I watched LaDanian Tomlinson run for about a thousand yards against my guys one afternoon in Fort Worth. I think we touched him twice.

I fail to see a defense in that picture

Opening day after the GREAT 1997 team.

For the record our QB coach went for 590 against them that day.

Fuck if college fantasy football was a thing back then imagine sitting Rattay or Edwards because of the defensive matchup and seeing that happen.

 

[Red_Alert]

LOL @ all these moral victories in a 56 - 27 loss.

9-4 never sounded so sexy
