I still don't understand the 3 green dots on that. Do those represent conceivably catchable balls? Or just passes that staying out of the bleachers? Obviously he didn't have 3 completions.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
Brady Hoke: You know.....not....good.

``whining about criticism and negativity after getting blown out (again), making comments about how the fans are against them''
Cue Brady Hoke: ``well if those fans are going to blame the players I'm here to say...''
Cue Dave Brandon: ``I think the fans should support our student athletes...''

Hot seat rating: Wait, we're doing this again?
Bo Pelini, Nebraska
Last week: Lost 59-24 at Wisconsin
This year's record: 8-2 (4-2 Big Ten)
Record at Nebraska: 66-26
Contract: $2.875 million through 2018
Buyout: About $4.5 million
It looked like Pelini had finally cracked the code and would go through an entire season without his job security being questioned. And then Melvin Gordon unleashed hell on the Huskers Saturday, and Pelini was left to explain yet another 30-point loss to the Badgers. Suddenly, the local media, which Pelini had previously blamed for spreading negativity around the Nebraska program, fired back:There are no more words. There are no more excuses. There's only a Nebraska football program that can't stop spinning its wheels, keeps driving itself into the same ditch.It only got worse from there:
Bo Pelini was supposed to be the tow truck. But seven years later, NU is still stuck, maybe more than ever. And it's obvious Pelini doesn't know how to get it out.
Bo Pelini's team didn't just lose the biggest game of the season by 35 points. It didn't just lose any realistic shot at a Big Ten West title. It lost all credibility and dignity. Friday the Huskers were still considered a candidate for the college football playoff. Saturday they were a laughingstock.The refrain remains the same: Pelini's teams rack up wins over cupcakes but don't deliver in big games. The Huskers have only beaten one ranked opponent in the last three seasons; only this season's five-point defeat at Michigan State was within 10. Wisconsin and Ohio State have both administered prime-time beatdowns of 20+ points in recent years, and Wisconsin has now done it twice.
Corn Nation: Someone has to be fired
But is it Pelini?
If Pelini didn't do enough to get fired last year, he certainly hasn't done enough this year, but the cumulative effect of those losses could cost him nonetheless. Nebraska is a program that has not won a conference championship this century, yet carries itself as a national contender. Pelini hasn't gotten them over the hump, and Husker donors might try someone else.Shut the fuck up Donny!

I love this thread and this discussion in particular.
It certainly beats the "up close and personal" features posted by E that sing the praises of various players and coaches. Misery loves company.
Man, Husker fans , though,have short memories.
I like talent's mem ..... "stay the course." Bo is your man. Don't give up too early on him.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.
