Nebraska vs. Illinois/Early Games Thread

[SFbayCane]

I flipped over to Hawaii @ UCLA. Hawaii looking like doodoo so far.


10-0 UCLA mid 1st qtr.

This is not the Nebraska of Tom Osborne and Boyd Epley, that's for sure. Oof.

FIFY. My Temple is celebrating with Manischewitz and Schnapps!

Epstein made it obvious but I didn’t want to upset any of my ****** friends. Seriously though a white ****** rb is more unlikely than a unicorn

 

[Cribby]

Who were those recruits that chose Nebraska over us lol

They’ve all left lol

 

[Lazarre]

Man Nebraska is stupid for trying to go all gimmick with their backyard. Go the wisconsin route and try to get the guys in your area thag are big and strong and go bully ball. They will never be anything trying to play finesse ball

They should hire Craig Bohl. He is not the prettiest hire but he make them a better program but he is pretty old. Don’t know how many years he has left.

Over/under on how many games in before frost gets fired? Can’t lose to ****kowski

Not that easy if you’re the AD. Unless they keep him.

Oh, the AD would be getting his walking papers when Frost gets his, so they can be escorted from the facility together.

Edit: I just realized they hired a new AD this year. Well, he needs to realize quickly that Frost isn’t the answer and make the move.

They look terrible vs a mediocre Illinois. He survives the season but then he’s done.

 

[Crystal Ball]

Id honestly take Frost as an OC if Lashlee were to leave.

Hes done at Nebraska.

Do they still have that **** that hired Al?

I never understood the Martinez love

Just edited my post, they just hired Trev Alberts to be the new AD in July. If he’s for real, he’ll do what needs to be done and move on from Frost.

If you start as a True Fr you automatically get hype

On a same note, if for instance Narduzzi was fired from Pitt this year, would you hire him (MIAMI) as your DC?

Wow did not know he was their AD. They need to move in from former players. His experience is being the AD at Neb-Omaha.

What? Absolutely lol, but I can’t see them firing him unless they just go completely under the tank this year.

Not to get too off topic I think (and sincerely hope) our next DC is already in Coral Gables. That man aint going to be an analyst forever, we need to give him an opportunity after this year before someone else does. He is proven, JMO.

I could see a co dc room situation next year

It likely won’t happen, but I was watching our Pitt game last year, and thought of that question. Would there be a philosophical change on defense? Would Manny be ok with that?

I agree with your second point as well.

I’m all for it as long as he is included. An old vet like him though, not sure he’d go for it but I guess we will cross that bridge when we get there.

Good point. It’s moot though, we will never get to find out lol.
