Sort of fits what I was talking about. It’s two programs that when they are good, college football is better. In this context, Michigan over the past 5 years or so has a much better argument than Nebraska does. IMHO.
Nebraska hasn't been relevant this century
- Thread starter husker2612
- Start date
if you are 2 pages deep debating whether or not you are relevant .... you aren't relevant
hopefully in years to come the question won't need to be asked because the answer will be obvious

Agree with that, Harbaugh is our Frost and he gave them a 3 year head start on us.
Harbaugh got out of the blocks quite a bit quicker than Frost ... he has 38 wins in his 1st 4 years and 3 ten win seasons
Are we getting on national tv? Not really.
Are we getting into major bowl games? Not really.
Are we battling for conference championships? Not really.
Are we embroiled in a legendary rivalry? Not really.
Are we putting players in the NFL? Not really.
Are we signing top level talent? Not really. (Side note: Did you know that 247Sports has Turner Corcoran as our third best recruit since 2000 at #32 in the country? #1 is Marlon Lucky.)
So are we relevant? Not really.
But things change.

not sure the relevance??
I can rephrase if you wish and state that the guy Michigan hired to right their blue blood program got off to a much better start than the guy we hired .. hopefully we start closing the gap

I’ll take the crystal and leave the tea and China.
What does Harbaugh coaching at Stanford have to do with his 1st year success at Michigan?
He took over a 5-7 team, sounds familiar. First year he want 10-3, not so familiar.
Again not saying that Harbaugh is a better coach, just saying that his results, taking over a 5-7 team, were better.
No worries. That’s how the last century started as well, and look what happened!
Same could be said if Frost went to a no name school from Kentucky. It was the combination of a 13-0 coach coming home and Nebraska football starting a new era.
Correct, it is about of 13-0 coach coming home to Nebraska. Not about Nebraska. Which is what I said.
Yes and no. It wasn't 100% just Frost. As I said if he had went to no name school, that game wouldn't have mattered 1 bit. But yes you are right it wasn't just about it being Nebraska. If Riley had still been the coach it wouldn't have got much attention.
Which is what I said originally. It was the storyline about the Nebraska kid coming home to coach Nebraska. Not about Nebraska being relevant.
Holy Shit people read the context.
Did you ever see Bubba Ho-Tep? A funny take on Elvis, JFK, and a mummy.
You are arguing for sake of arguing, of course its about Nebraska. The media does not give a hoot about 13 -0 UCF. What they care about is resurrecting a national name, can you not see that ????
Holy shit bro. Talk about arguing for the sake of arguing. I never said the media cared about UCF. They cared about the guy who coached them to a 13-0 season.
If Nebraska was relevant they wouldn’t need resurrecting.
This game being on national tv was because Frost was coming home and it being his 1st game at Nebraska. Period end of story. They got that story even though the game was never played.
The Colorado game was a regional game on ABC, why was that not a prime time game? Because Scott Frost’s second game at Nebraska is not as big a deal and Nebraska wasn’t a very good team.
I like you Tuco, and like what you contribute to the board. However, you do like to do your fair share of arguing to argue.

I didn’t say I don’t. But in this case, the dude from Washington is being obtuse
