Nebraska has been thisclose the last x amount of years. We have as many excuses as the offense had turnovers this year. It's sad.I agree with your history part but you surely must agree that this team was not very far off a 10-12 win season this year with 3 QBs that offered up 26 (?) turnovers most of which were game losers. The young are dreaming of the glory their Daddies told them about. Nothing wrong with that. You also must admit that no one is alive since Iowa won a National Championship. Nothing wrong with making fun of that either.
Iowa's national championship trophy cabinet is always fun to poke at, but even as a slow, plodding, mid-lower-tier program they've come out on top lately.
A QB and some offensive weapons should go a long way to improving things. Not getting my hopes up ahead of time.
