Sure hope this isn't an example of the "new" Husker fan of today. Because Husker fans used to be humble & gracious & respectful in victory and defeat, and that was a major reason I was proud to be a Husker. This whole business of trying to put others down to feel better about yourself is a big, stinking pile of you know what.Being tired of all their crap I posted this: Truth hurts doesn't it? A very rare small taste of football success has created dilusions of grandeur throughout the Chokeye fan base! I'd say act like you've been there before. But oh wait, that's right you've never been there before. As I said in my other post, Hawkeye has never been anything in football and never will. Go play with the kiddies in the romper room as you have no place nor will you ever congregating with any of the Bluebloods!
No argument from meTry 4 out of the last 5, and your '14 win was a gift. Who has the better record since you joined the B1G?

I was referring to head to head not overall. And while your adding stats, we've had three BCS level bowl games the last 15 years to your zero. I think you might have won the B1G West division once? No conference championships.
But my actual point was that over any reasonable recent period of time (i.e. this century) our programs are actually pretty similar.
I’ve stopped talking smack the last couple years because I know how it is being on the losing end. But guys like the OP make it difficult sometimes. I would expect Hawk fans to keep their mouths shut if we got lost by a combined 124-44 the past three seasons.
Apparently, Iowa can’t count the past three seasons but Nebraska can count Kirk’s first two seasons where he went 1-10 and 3-9? Seems biased either way.
I think we should atleast all admit our teams aren’t where they want them to be.
We'll see what the future holds for NE football, but unfortunately as of now, anything noteworthy with your team is ancient history.15 years...that's history, and according to Iowa math history doesn't matter.
56-14 (not the tOSU game, the other one)Being tired of all their crap I posted this: Truth hurts doesn't it?

So I assume you never talk smack about Minnesota, they have multiple titles. Or is there a period of time where the history doesn't really matter any more.Fair enough, I'd also expect Husker fans to keep their months shut if they had zero National Titles in their life time and Iowa had 5.
Ah man, we have to wait until Iowa wins five national titles to talk any sort of smack at all? That’s a bummer. Or is it three titles to talk smack to anyone under the age of 40? Can we talk smack to Husker fans under the age of 20? There are so many rules.Fair enough, I'd also expect Husker fans to keep their months shut if they had zero National Titles in their life time and Iowa had 5.

Totally agree. The fact Nebraska and Iowa have performed similarly in that timeframe is why we’re all up in arms, and firing coaches left and right.But my actual point was that over any reasonable recent period of time (i.e. this century) our programs are actually pretty similar.

First off the original poster was out of line. You don't go to another teams board and talk shit. True or not. If you do, expect backlash, and rightly so. Secondly don't go running back to your own board and expect support.I was referring to head to head not overall.

Like I asked before, are you proud of this and think it's a good thing? Really? Lol.
With all the impatience and unrealistic expectations your leadership has shown over the last 15 years I think it's pretty apparent that Frost is probably your last chance to get back to whatever level your fan base is expecting. If he fails NE will basically be done for good as being a potential "blue blood" again and will likely become Minnesota.
No other young coach will want to touch that highly volatile and toxic situation, NE has become nothing but a career killer for coaches. You'll likely just attract guys like Riley who are looking to make a few more bucks before riding off into the sunset.
A LOT is riding on Frost's shoulders. Better hope he delivers 11+ wins every year soon.
Pretty homerun spot on post.Like I asked before, are you proud of this and think it's a good thing? Really? Lol.

This statement shows why Neb is better than Iowa. Look at every top program in the country. They don't accept middle of the pack results. If you don't perform you are fired. Iowa has for whatever reason accepted mediocrity with Ferentz. I am not saying he is a horrible coach just not a coach who will compete for Conf and National championships. If he would have been at teams like Neb, or Penn St, or Fl, or FL St, or Miami, or Alabama, or Michigan or ND, or Ohio St he would have been fired years ago. Every one of these teams have fired coaches every 2-5 years if there are not results.Like I asked before, are you proud of this and think it's a good thing? Really? Lol.

I hope the OP is not the mainstream Husker fan, because if he is, we've fallen in a lot more ways than wins and losses. The facts remain that we, as fans, don't play the game ourselves. So if our teams wins what do we (ourselves) have to brag about. The same is true about losing. The Husker/Sooner rivalry was great because (a.) Both teams were usually great and you didn't know who would win from yr to yr. (b.) Even in the fierce competition, both fanbases were, for the most part, very respectful and complimentary towards each other. Where did that go in today's world? People bragging about talking smack on another team's board. What do you think is going to happen? I hope that Neb vs Iowa can evolve into a true rivalry like I described above. It's up to the fans of both teams to turn it around.I’ve stopped talking smack the last couple years because I know how it is being on the losing end.

I’m proud that when Nebraska isn’t good, they make a change. Too many recently.Like I asked before, are you proud of this and think it's a good thing? Really? Lol.

That you lump NE with these teams is the kind of misguided arrogance that makes so many non-NE fans laugh. You guys just don't get it and refuse to face the reality of today's college football landscape.This statement shows why Neb is better than Iowa. Look at every top program in the country.

This program should never apologize for expecting greatness. When Iowa does the same then they can be discussed in the same breath as the great programs. Until then enjoy your middle of the pack program forever.
And OU, Texas and USC are insulted!That you lump NE with these teams is the kind of misguided arrogance that makes so many non-NE fans laugh. You guys just don't get it and refuse to face the reality of today's college football landscape.

You say KF isn't a coach who can compete for conf and National titles and yet he's won 3 B1G titles. Fail. We've also finished #8 in the country three times (both after being ranked as high as #3 and #4). Illinois has their national titles on their press box too. What a glorious past they have huh?This statement shows why Neb is better than Iowa. Look at every top program in the country. They don't accept middle of the pack results.
