Since 2015, they’ve won 8 or more games every season (minus the COVID year where they finished 6-2)…they don’t panic when they have an 8-5 type of season (or make in-season coaching changes), they just get back to work the next year and put up 9-10 wins…they put OL, TEs and white DBs in the league…are they a little boring and dull? Sure…but I’d take boring and dull right now. They know exactly who and what they are: a 2nd tier BIG program that flirts with 1st tier every 3-4 years…Nebraska thinks they are a first tier BIG program on par with the Ohio States, Michigans and Oregons but we have yet to rise above the bottom feeder tier.

While this post sounds needlessly pessimistic and a little overly pro-Iowa, it’s more a plea for consistency, stability and discipline. Make OL and DL play the cornerstone of your program and good things will happen

Kkk is going to become the winningest coach in the big ten without ever winning anything of significance, let that soak in! I truly believe coach Rhule will right the ship and we’ll be right up there with the top tier of the league I find it interesting how fans clamor to be freaking Iowa! We are crawling out of our worst period of football maybe ever and Iowa has been winning the last several games with last season field goals, yeah it a gut punch but should they be beating us by ten points or more?

8-5 is lame and most of those seasons, well, all those seasons, came from playing in the Big Ten West.

They don't flirt with Tier 1, they have never won the Big Ten conference, they have been to what, two major bowls?

Now, we that said, we had a coach that that averaged MORE wins a year...Bo. But radio hosts and posters were scared of him.

Whatever we just want to see our Cornhuskers not get cornholed every damn year
Then the HC gaslight us.

Their fans, for the most part, hate him. They are totally over it and I get it. He and his boyfriend have been stealing money from the school forever, they have never actually tried to get better or win more.

They had a schedule that was beyond easy this year and crapped it away.

Says the fan base that rushed the field for their 6th win yet wants to claim they are still a bluebood🤫

As an Iowa fan this is totally wrong. A very loud minority dislike him but most Iowa fans love KF. Trust me, I live among them and know them well. As far as your statement about our schedule, that’s wrong too. No big ten teams schedule is easy. Quit showing your ignorance
 
Iowa ****ing stinks. They are an average boring ass big 10 team. Not saying we are good at all, but they are certainly not.

Just take a look at social media, die hard Iowa fans have wanted Kirk to retire or be fired for some time. Their fans want more even if the program doesnt

I coach with Iowa fans, they dislike kirk and his attitude. All the talk about is if they have an easy schedule or if they have to play hard teams.

How could you love a coach that has never been close to winning anything at all?
 
Nebraska is the model for consistency at not winning 1 score games and not being above above .500
 
Of kicking our asses, nuts the shit out of with the fvcking waterboy.

This conference, for the most part, is so lame. I caught the end of the Minny vs Wisky game. These losers on the Minny team acted like they won 10 Super Bowls when they beat a horrible Wisconsin team. It was a sight to see.

Stop whining about teams enjoying winning. It's a bad look.

We rushed the field vs 5-6 now 5-7 Wisconsin. Your point, troll?

I am not whining, I get why the players are excited, it is because if you go to Minny or Wisky or Iowa, you know that you can never actually win anything that really matters. So you have to go crazy for anything you can.

Nice defeatism.

Nebraska is above that and won't accept being less. Hawks might accept being mediocre, but we don't accept that.

What you say is less true than it's ever been. There have been several years in the past decade where Iowa or Minny would've had a shot at a 12 team playoff. Those teams are closer to competing for a title than ever. It's a great time to be a competent program with an established HC. Look at the parity this year, there are ZERO great teams.

Oh for sure, starting now things are much more wide open. And will get even more fun when it goes to a 16 team playoff.

If you are an NU fan prove it here. I have you on ignore... And ultimately that is for a reason. I am not perfect and can make mistakes.

So, what makes you an NU fan? How do you feel about Billy Sims? Did Devaney win the Natty in 1963? What year did Tom Osborne have a heart attack?

You know what, just keep me on ignore. Weirdo.
