MR is going to find out Nebraska fan gets pretty passionate after a loss......lol
I'll add to this. Where I agree that the "passion" after a loss has faded a bit, I will add that Nebraska fans are still very passionate about HOW we lose.Maybe not so much anymore. Many are now numb and expect to lose 3.
f that.
pitchforks and fire after the first loss is the only way to send a message.

It's more about how we play in general, win or lose. Even many of the wins in the Pelini era were sloppy games that didn't inspire much hope for the future. Watching us play Purdue and Rutgers last year, you could tell we were heading for trouble when we played somebody decent.
Nebraska fans have seen a lot of good football over the years, they aren't going to accept a haphazard product.
I guess that's why they say variety is the spice of life.I could never decide which losses pissed me off more, the blowouts to teams of similar or slightly greater talent or the annual loss to a team we should have beaten by three touchdowns.
Oh, I definitely agree with this. There were way too many nail biters that should have been comfortable wins. There were too many games where self inflicted wounds left the game in doubt well into the fourth quarter. Sometimes those were against teams with respectable names like Michigan or Penn State, but the games should have been comfortable Nebraska wins, not dogfights.
I think most Nebraskans are, for lack of a better term, football savvy. They can sniff out a rotten product. Beating directional state university every year by a touchdown told most fans all they needed to know about the real quality of the team. I always hold out hope that a team will improve, but 95% of the time struggling like we did so often against vastly inferior opponents is very telling.
I wonder how NU fans would react to home losses to Eastern Washington and Sacramento State?
I don't know... Guess we'll cross that bridge if we ever come to it. Which we won't under Riley...I wonder how NU fans would react to home losses to Eastern Washington and Sacramento State?
Probably be upset. If and when we do have a bad loss, I am so thankful that I don't have to hear about how something is "fixable" only to watch it not get fixed year after year after year . . .I wonder how NU fans would react to home losses to Eastern Washington and Sacramento State?
