To be fair, Husker8877 did admit that Nebraska's season wasn't great this year. I was mocking Nebraska's long history under Tom Osborne of playing one of the weakest non-conference schedules, running up the scores on Nobody U., then lobbying the polls on their 'great tradition' bullcrap. And again to be fair, towards the end of Osborne's tenure he did upgrade their non-conference schedules, and often got exposed as a result (such as the upset at Arizona State, hahaha!)
At least Osborne beat Oklahoma once in a while and he did kick the crap out of Bear Bryant in the Orange Bowl (38-6!!). It's precisely because the Huskers have such a great tradition that makes this season not just "not great", but an unmitigated disaster. Losing record? Are you kidding me? The Blackshirts losing 70-10 to Texas Tech? Even my alma mater qualified for a bowl game (the University of Akron ZIPS), and I'd be the first to say that they have no business in Division I-A in the first place, let alone a bowl game. (They didn't get an invite).
