  1. Oh, he's going to get plenty of "help".
  2. I wouldn't say we have been anemic in the offensive half. In fact, I think this team has more quality attacking than any US team I've seen in my lifetime. There is actual creative build up play and good ball movement. Our finishing, as mentioned, continues to be poor. Also somewhat new, our set pieces are complete garbage. Having one or two dangerous corners against the Netherlands would be fucking nice.
  3. Aaronson is great coming off the bench when you have the lead and want someone to press and run down everything. He is not a threat to score and can't create like our starters. He is a hustler that lacks some touch. When Pulisic and McKennie came off today our attacking midfield play died. We needed Reyna out there.
  4. Pure Bunker mode. Fuck Greg.
  5. Whose wife did Gio fuck? We need someone out there with a first touch and might be able to possess the ball.
  6. Bravo Vegas. Beat most of us by 0.5.
  7. Este. I’m in on it and don’t understand this line at all
  8. If she loses I've seen Requiem for a Dream and know where this is going.
  9. Good day so far, being it home Lane Train
  10. I’m .500 in cfb this year so I clearly know fuck all. More confident on Sunday’s. That aside today I took: Illinois -7 NU vs Illini Under 50.5 Ole Miss -2 Canes UVA Under 48.5 That last one was due to @40acredropout showing their work on a previous post so compellingly.
  11. As an NU fan can’t say I agree with NU +7.5. Illinois should control the line of scrimmage and run the ball at will. I took the under.
  12. Heading out to Vegas over Thanksgiving week. Am I going to need to reserve seats in a Sportsbook for Wed-Fri, or Sat, 6AM-3PM games?
  13. Rough 5 days for Tua. First he got concussed a back injury during the Bills game and now it looks like he got a concussion tonight. Some people in the Dolphins organization did him wrong.
  14. And typical classy response by Pujols “At the end of the day, I think that's why the fans come here -- to have a special moment of history. So if they wanna keep that baseball, I don't have any problem with that."
  15. Bo Pelini was without a doubt more successful than anyone since Solich. That said your W/L numbers above only tell part of the story. Final Rankings: Unranked, 14, 19, 24, 23, Unranked, Unranked. He was good at beating the teams he was supposed to and nobody else. That's not going to get it done if you also are one of the top 3 assholes in CFB at the same time. NU was never going to improve beyond fringe Top 25 team under his leadership. Take a look at his results post NU for more evidence. I wasn't a whole lot happier going 9-4 and finishing unranked than I am going 4-9 and finishing unranked. So I have no issue trying new coaches.
  16. Correlation vs causation. It's not even remotely that simple if that is what the producer of this chart is trying to suggest. Expanding media rights, streaming, one of the better coaches of all time retiring, switching conferences, and playing UT regularly guaranteeing one painful loss a season also played a role. Make a chart of USC's win percentage by year vs. average monthly LA temps and see what that looks like.
  17. Majority of this page belongs in Dumbass Stuff We See On Facebook thread or not to be shared at all.
  18. I get everyone's argument regarding NU being a shit job. They are well supported arguments and logical. That said, I stupidly expect NU to get a solid hire. Conference realignment has made B1G jobs even more attractive, NU has out-recruited the West even while sucking, it's still a big brand, they have money, and they have a $160M dollar facility upgrade scheduled to be completed next year. The right coach could do pretty well there. Currently nobody in Nebraska expects to be competing for championships. Competing for the division would be enough for awhile. It's silly season and I choose to be naively optimistic. I have lived through the Callahan and Riley hires so I'm aware of how this will likely go.
  19. If I'm the AD first call I'm making is to money whip Chris Petersen to make sure he is done coaching. After that Fickell and Fleck. Then once all of them hang up on me laughing I get drunk and fire out a mass email to Chadwell, Freeze, Klieman, etc.
  20. Man 1 more second is never kind for NU.
  21. Absolutely won't make it past Mid-Oct. They should have 5 losses by then.
  22. NU to ND
  23. I created an NU game thread on a UT message board and all of you are rooting against NU!?!?!
  24. Over 500 yards by GA Southern through 3Qs. NU pays it's D Coordinator 850k annually and gave him an extension through 2023 after last season.
  25. I assure you every fan is so beaten down no riots will take place. I doubt many would even be surprised by the loss. Everyone knows how this ends with Frost.
