Michigan isn't in a much better spot. We won't ever recruit like the top 3-4 teams either. Why? We don't have 5 star recruits every year in state to recruit. The vast majority of 5 star guys we get is because of academics.

I'm not delusional though -- Nebraska fans truly think they are a coach away from being nationally elite again. I've been saying this since Nebraska came over to the B1G. It couldn't have been a worse move for the football program. Recruiting, which was already difficult, is much harder because now you play in the Midwest. You lost your national rivals. You now play in the "other division" of the B1G that has none of the top 3 teams.

I think Nebraska could become competitive each year in the B1G West, but nationally elite isn't happening, unless Warren Buffett decides he wants to hand you a blank check to buy an endless supply of recruiting classes.

Northwestern is a complete nerd school. 93% of NU graduates successfully complete grad school. Including me.

Corn harvesting hillbillies have been humbled.

I'm not disappointed any more. Nebraska had very good run in 70's. 80's and 90's. Probably the best top 2-3 team three decade run of any CFB team. Glad I witnessed.

Yes -- it was Pelini's fault, it was Mike Riley's fault, it is now Scott Frost's fault. Next year it will be......................fill in the blanks fault. At some point, you look at the facts. You have to see there isn't a chance you can recruit like the top teams and that isn't changing any time in the future unless Nebraska relocates their campus.

Bla bla bla more inept responses from a clueless Michigan n00b
 
Frost sucks. Problem is, he was the Wonder Boy who was supposed to lead Nebraska back to the Promised Land. Dude isn't getting the job done and it's a combination of things. Poor game decisions are a factor but that talent level is abysmal by the old Nebraska standards. Northwestern was pushing Nebraska's defensive line around like it was on roller skates. And where was the razzle dazzle on D to create some confusion for the offensive players? It wasn't there. I doubt every Nebraska coach is a moron. My bet is the talent level is so poor the coaches know their players simply aren't able to (a) run right through people and/or (b) are not able to finesse anything either. I'll be disappointed if OU doesn't score 45 points when we play in a couple of weeks. I am sooooo tired of watching these Nebraska losses but the Huskers have got to be realistic: firing Wonder Boy won't solve all the problems. They need some better players too. Sigh.
 
Not Pelini's fault. Goes back to the dip shit AD I'm guessing that ran Frank out of there.

I'd have expected strength and conditioning to have improved under frost compared to Riley's guys, it feels like he didn't take it nearly as seriously as he should have til this year


his stupid ass gimmick of onside kicking probably worked at UCF because it's easier to be big fish in a little pond he's gotta accept that won't work on real teams

Couldn't coach and get Thompson calmed down either



the experiment is over
 
In typical Nebraska fashion.....they lose after holding a double digit lead.

2 double digit leads.
 
Nebraska made history today....
