I think the Skers could use an upgrade at defensive coordinator, not sure Cosgrove is the answer.
Have to give Mizzou props, they looked pretty good.
Peace
45% complete.
USC's win over Nebraska is looking more and more meaningless. Our season's not totally wrecked in this chaotic college football year, but the win over the Huskers isn't inspiring much confidence in our ability to beat Cal or Oregon. I just hope we finish ahead of Mizzou in the polls.
I'm glad they gave that idiot Callahan an extension after he beat Nevada.
They are horrible.

OMFG!!! 45-14!! Now it looks like they will be lucky to have a winning record. Nice going coaches.
Now that Tom Osborne doesn't have a job, maybe they can hire him as AD after Pederson gets canned. At least he understands Nebraska and Nebraska football. These idiots who want to "change the culture" of Nebraska football have done just that. Stood at an open elevator shaft and pushed the program in.
Nebraska AD Fired, after contract renewed for 5 years (can you say $$$$$ buyout)?
Tom Osborne named interim AD.
Defensive Coordinator fired -- what Defense?
Callahan on the hot seat, with Turner Gill breathing down his neck. (can you say ANOTHER $$$$ buyout)?
Suck it up Husker fans, looks like 2 or 3 losing seasons ahead. And no good basketball team to look forward to.

The Callahan death watch begins!!
<< <i>And Kansas is kicking butt!! >>
There's always that one team in the Big 12 that comes from no where.
Only a matter of time before Baylor has a breakout year.
: snickers :
I don't think Callahan will last the season -- he may get canned tomorrow.
In the course of every human endeavor since the dawn of time the risk of human error has always been a factor. Including but not limited to field goals, 4th down attempts, or multiple paragraph ramblings on a sports forum authored by someone who shall remain anonymous.

<< <i>KU should have left the starters in and dropped 100 on the Huskers. Mangino called off the dogs with what, about 11 minutes left. I don't recall Osbourne ever showing any mercy like that. Oh well, payback sure is sweet.
You are correct, your recollection is very poor. After a big lead, Osborne always had 3rd and 4th stringers in, like the second half of the 84-13 drubbing of Minnesota in 1984.
<< <i>I don't recall Osbourne ever showing any mercy like that. >>
Here's a story about that. Back when Pat Jones was coaching Oklahoma State, Nebraska was blasting OSU at half, when the teams came back on the field for the 2nd half, Osborne had one of the trainers run across the field and hand Pat Jones a note. On it was written every play Nebraska was going to run and in the order they were going to run them, in the second half. I don't know if the story is true, but it was Pat Jones that told it.
Is it enough to give Callahan a stay of execution? If so, a convincing win over Colorado is a must!
<< <i>Convincing win over Colorado?? HHHAAA!! I can't believe they're this bad!!!! Anyone watching this.....they are REALLY bad this year. Hate to admit I'm a Husker fan!!! >>
Well, it looked good at halftime!!
Just a horrible, horrible, defense. All along I thought Callahan should have retained Bo Pellini, but Callahan had to install his "boys" and now the Huskers are paying the price.
Callahan is toast.
Callhan Fired!!!
Good riddance.
<< <i>well it looks like Turner Gill wil be leaving Buffalo for Nebraska...too bad, he realy started making progress here in western NY >>
I for one Husker fan, wish it would be true. Why? Tom Osborne believes in mentoring. What better opportunity for him to "mentor" a guy like Turner Gill as head coach while he is AD? TO was Turner's best man at his wedding. Turner knows the Nebraska culture. He knows the pressure. He understands Nebraska football. Something Callahan never understood. He was too busy trying to "change the culture", calling TO a "crusty old f&#^%*" and living like a hermit in his office going over film to understand Nebraska football. The only "BIG WIN" Callahan got at Nebraska was his $3.1 million buy-out.
Some people feel Turner is too young, too inexperienced. He's older and has just as much experience, if not more, than TO did when he became head coach at 35.
It's said, "you can never go back home", but I hope they give Turner that chance. It certainly couldn't be any worse than what we've suffered through for the past 4 years.

Hopefully he can fix the defense, and keep the potent offense. We will see!!
