Huskers now 2.5 point favorite over Wisconsin

More likely we'd have lined up in shotgun, handed off to Dowdell, he leaps from the 4 and is tacked at the 3.

And you say nothing is funny about our program…this is pretty funny

Nearly 59000 reaction score on a message board screams loser.

Many, many of these posters bought bitcoin before you ever heard of it. They are winners. The only thing you should be saying to them is "would you like fries with that?".

Still at 2.5 with a 42.5 O/U. Yikes...

That under is low, but still looks tempting. Two struggling offenses and decent defenses.

This game is looking to be an intriguing chess match in a battle for a bowl game invite.

As disappointing as aspects of this season have been we still have an opportunity to finish 7-5 and go to a halfway decent bowl. I predicted a 6-6 season so I really have no room to whine... but I will anyway. 😂

Obviously we know why this was posted. Fickell followed Matt Rhule’s footsteps, days after. Both teams are 5-5 but the guy will continue to exercise his dog-brain loyalty to those he has declared his love and hate for. Deion, HH, Fickell could all bang his wife and he would cheer them on from his kennel.

this is a typical surface-level layman's post

the reality is the only thing these two moves have in common is the timing.

NGMR was allowed to bring his guys in to start his tenure here and has been forced to look outside the program after less than 2 years in hopes a totally new perspective cures what ails us.

Fickell was made to bring in a splashy OC upon his hiring as part of an overarching rebranding of Wisc football. To nobody's surprise, it hasn't worked (never does), and now he's turning to his own guys who were with him during his playoff run at Cincy to try and do things his own way.

we'll see which tact produces more on-field success.
