There isn't a rats ass in hell chance that they would understand it. and most of you have already thought the same thing. Aknowledge.......................move on! Go Big Red!

We shall never know the cuase. If we did, it might sear our Husker lovin' brains and we'd end up drilling out the offending lump of gray matter like that dude in the movie <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CE%A0_%28film%29" rel="nofollow">Pi</a>.

That game was more like the invasion of Denmark. In fairness, that Nebraska team was probably the best team of the last few decades. Poland put up a better fight than Florida did.

May aliens kidnap you, probe you, and then drop you in San Francisco dazed at a NAMBLA convention, you snotty-faced SFB.

Our former defensive coordinator Kevin Cosgrove understood the spread offense as well as King George III understood there were guys in the colonies hiding behind trees and shooting at his guys standing in straight lines and wearing bright red. Who can withstand the onslaught you're supposed to do is follow orders and those orders make no sense? As evidence, the Texas game, where the Huskers played rather well (relatively speaking) until Colt McCoy came out for a play after suffering an injury. On the next play, Chiles came in, ran a zone read, gained a bunch of yards and the light bulbs went on. Apparently the Texas coaches aren't exactly the smartest guys in football - what the hell were they watching when they scouted Nebraska's defense - film from 1987? Rip Van Winkle was their offensive coordinator? Texas went on to run for 1,236 yards in the fourth quarter and won the game and oh screw it. 2007 never happened. I'm working on a giant Men In Black discombobulator at this moment. If you have any good memories from 2007, best have written them down, taken pictures or stuck 'em on you tube because you're about to lose them. There’s no mystery here, dammit!
