Has completed their past 7 seasons without going to a bowel.

During our illustrious run of Gilby - Willingham - Sark, we went 7 seasons without a bowel, before Sark stumbled up to 7 wins.

Holy fuckall Nebraska.
 
Can’t wait to finally meet those classy fans when we? return to Lincoln. We should do a HH pregame at Runza.

Good thing Dannen wanted to get away from all the shitlibs here so bad he signed up for a nightmare.
 
They've been oscillating between 3 and 5 wins that entire tim. During a period of B1G West dominance. Errr, excuse me, I'm being told that actually the B1G West never once won the B1G title game once it became West and East. Purdue, Northwestern, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois. Worldbeaters apparently.
Our 7 year run had a 6-6 season (the first year of it) under Gilby which did not result in a bowel. Then we were all over the place with Owen, 1, 2, 4 and 5 wins (Twice).

How Nebraska? How?
 
Nebraska and Iowa should be forced to move to the Big 12.
 
Nebraska makes no sense as a power. They should be like shittier Kansas actually, but the whole option thing built their program and they did a hell of a job sustaining it for a very long time.
It's also stupid the Big 10 won't have any sort of geographical divisions going forward. Is there another team sport on any level that has zero geographical division? We should be playing Nebraska every year.

That’s wild I had no idea it had been that long.

I guess they should have given “nine win Bo” a little more grace.

It was the other way around though.

Frost was the hottest name on the carousel in 2017 and turned down other jobs in favor of his Alma mater.

(Frost almost got the job three years earlier when they hired Riley. That would have been hiring an alum just because they were an alum. Although probably still better than Riley lol.)

It's always a feel good hire and you still see it happening, but it usually doesn't work.

You completely missed the point as usual.

Frost turned down Florida to go to Nebraska. It wasn’t a “feel good” hire it was an objectively good hire at the time. In hindsight, that’s different.

I guess we could keep arguing about whether it was a feel good hire or objectively good. That's why this is called a bored.

And that 7th win came against Nebraska after they clobbered us in the regular season.
 
Lincoln, Nebraska isn’t a cool place for the kids to go to school and play football?
Who knew?
