Over the last 20 years, you guys are basically the Gamecocks:

Nebraska since 2000: 165-112, 7-8 bowl record
South Carolina since 2000: 157-119, 9-6 bowl record

Two formerly great programs who have been down for well over a decade. Which bounces back first? Or do they at all?

At some point Nebraska fans will realize in today's CFB, you aren't competing for national titles when you can't recruit like the elite schools (which Nebraska will never be able to do with zero in state talent).

They are still in the "it is the coaches fault" stage of denial. Their ceiling now is winning the B1G West once in a while for the chance to get their ass handed to them by the East champ.
 
Have to say Tenn.. They played hard last year through a ton of injuries and the offense was good. Nebraska is trying to change their fortune by replacing an interception prone QB with no me that actually is more interception prone

Huh?

I am assuming you are saying that Thompson is more INT prone than Martinez, if that is the case, you are mistaken. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't exactly be surprised if Thompson comes in and throws more INTs than he did at Texas (B1G>B12), but his stats as they sit now are significantly better than Martinez's.

Thompson Career = 30 TDs with 9 INTS. (from 2019-2021)
Martinez Career = 45 TDs with 30 INTS. (from 2018-2021)

In 2021 alone.
Thompson = 24 TDs with 9 INTS.
Martinez = 14 TDs with 10 INTS.

Can't be any worse in my opinion. Plus, I think Thompson brings a stronger desire to win than Martinez did. I loved Martinezs character, but I did feel like he would hit moments where he would get careless or given up in nearly every game.
 
Imo, Frost needs at MINIMUM of 8 wins to keep his job another year, which I do think is very doable.

The way I see the year playing out...

Northwestern - W
North Dakota - W
Georgia Southern - W
Oklahoma - Coin Flip
Indiana - W
Rutgers - W
Purdue - W
Illinois - W
Minnesota - W
Michigan - Coin Flip
Wisconsin - Coin Flip
Iowa - W

But given what the team was capable of last year, assuming there isn't a drop, every one of those games is very winnable.

So what you are saying is that Frost will be fired after this next season and Nebraska will have a new coach you can blame the losses on?

Question. As a professional deep throater, are you worried about how the economy will impact you?

Look at you dick-ride across every thread. Bro, your insecurity is pathetic and shameful.

The only one "dick riding" or "deep throating" is yourself on the Nebraska football program. I don't know how you could keep a straight face typing out the post with all the "W's" for Nebraska next year. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I almost feel bad for how clueless Nebraska fans are. They actually believe they are a coach away from being elite again, and you post about winning all your games and how you are a coin flip with the other 3:facepalm:

How about this? Shoot for getting bowl eligible before you shoot for the stars:pound:

No, you are wrong. Nobody in the Big 12 threw more interceptions per attempt than Casey last year (among qualifying QBs). He had 9 picks in 261 attempts. He threw a pick every 29 attempts. Martinez threw 10 picks in 306 attempts or 1 every 30.6. Not to mention Martinez had a 72.5 QBR and Casey had 62.6 QBR..

Gonna be tough.

3-3 in your last 6 with Northwestern
lost a close one with OK last year, never know in a rivalry game, plus they're in transition
lost to Indiana last year but have otherwise hardly ever played them
have never lost to Rutgers
lost 3 of the last 4 to Purdue
lost last 2 to Illinois (but won 4 straight prior to that)
lost 3 straight to Minny
lost 2 straight to Mich
lost 8 straight to Wisky (and 9 of 10)
lost 7 straight to Iowa (and 8 of 11)

Looks like a 6-6 season.
