Being a Nebraska fan is like the water-drinking bird toy from the 90's. Just when your heads under water you pop back up for air until you bleed enough red working it's way into your head and back down to the water dish yah go.

Just like most teams through the years, peaks and valleys.
I bet. It's pretty simple. Which teams don't have valleys? And why does Nebraska seem so different that it shouldn't happen here? Nebraska hasn't been above and beyond other programs since 2001.
Ha! The douche bag response. Good for you, because it doesn't take much. Why does Nebaraska "seem so different?" If you're as smart as you think you are, you should have figured it out circa 2001

Being French! We were once great - still think we're great, and wonder why no one gives us the respect we think we deserve.
All I will say is Alabama isn't a good team because recruits loved Bear Bryant. They play there cause it's a winner and gets them in the NFL.

You got to strike gold with the right coach to be back, and I think the problem started when TO named solich his successor rather than going and getting NU the top guy at the time.

You never answered my question. Rather, just a drunk, pointless rant. Nebraska is sadly not immune to the same issues as anyone else. Superiority complex?

playing the lottery. You might get a couple numbers here and there but more often than not left with false hope.

Being super cool in high school, then acting the same way when your 40 and doing a lot of reflecting to when you were in high school. Without, normal human grow, and production to society.

Yeah, but would that top guy have come? Would he have really been able to maintain the way it was back then? Sometimes a top coach can go somewhere else and not do so well.

having a team with no identity. Same as dozens of other offenses and defenses with no kicking game. The fans are what make this program special.

"Drunk, pointless rant." You have no idea who I am, or whether or not I even drink, and yet your comments are antagonistic. There is, absolutely, a superiority complex in this thred. If you can't figure out he difference between Nebareaks and 90% of the other programs, I can't help you. And if you were in front of me acting like an uppity *****, you would walk away.

I think back then the top guy would have, now no. I get maintaining continuity in something that works, and it's easy to criticize now.

Okay? No one said Nebraska is the same as Toledo. Now, how is Nebraska different then other great programs through the years? You seriously have some idea that they are just supposed to be better, when the fact is not the same.

Also, why would I walk away?
