Don't know about the bugeater thing, but I was told that Cornhusker came about because announcers are not allowed to say Pig#ucker on the air.

I think the only bowl they'll see is one filled with cornflakes. Chomp, chomp!
Nebraska fans reactions to Tommy Armstrong:
Turnovers are part of the game. Iowa turned it over as well... Or did you forget that!? Enjoy your 5-7 off season.
Or a sentence, because you know, the N is knowledge. Haaaaaaaaaaaha
Tommy Armstrong just tried to pass the ketchup at the post-game meal and it got intercepted by Greg Mabin.
Speaking of this, I heard in postgame that Nebraska had the chance to beat 2 top 10 teams in the same season for the first time since 1971 (or maybe '77?), but I was shocked to hear this. WTH did they actually have to do to compete for national championships?!?!? Basically, through the whole time they were good, they never beat 2 top 10 teams in the same season! Wow. I wasn't old enough when Nebby was good to worry about SOS and stuff like that, but perhaps we've been giving them far too much credit for their historic prowess of yore...
Mine was watching that same safety throw his hands up and blame the grass when Kittle beat him in the end zone for a touchdown. And that same receiver came in 2 plays later from that "lit up". You can try you poor, poor soul, but at the end of the day, 12-0!
You realize the biggest hit on a Hawkeye today was delivered by another Hawkeye, right?
Will they be playing another 5-7 team?
I hope so--then they really will be able to say they're the best 7-loss team in the country!
Hmm, in '95 it was #8 Kst., #7 Cu, #10 KU, and #2 Florida. I didn't check the others though.
Maybe because at the time they played they weren't in the top 10. Not sure.
"Due to their performance against Florida as well as beating 4 teams that finished in the top 10 by an average score of 49–18, their consistent dominance (smallest margin of victory was 14 points, trailed only once all season, averaging 400 yards rushing per game while allowing only 78, scoring 51 rushing touchdowns while allowing only 6), their record setting offensive performance, and their statistically impressive defense throughout the season, the 1995 Nebraska Cornhuskers are widely considered one of the greatest teams in college football history.

And your shitty run defense. And your coach, glad you will have him the next five years.
I love it husker fans claim only reason we won today was qb threw 4 int and they lost we didn't beat them. But last year they credited their "great defense" for Iowa's 4 turnovers and winning the game. Armstrong was luckily for how much he just threw it up for grabs he didn't have more than 4 ints.
Side note Washington beats wash st to go to 6-6 so one more team bowl eligible. How sad is it now you are hoping for 5-6 teams to lose so you can sneak into some garbage bowl game.

Good point, you never know how they're going to spin these stats when rankings are involved. You can say this year's Iowa team beat anywhere from 1-3 or 4 ranked teams depending on if you count ranked when they played them or ranked at any point or ranked at the end (tbd).
