How Good Is Nebraska?

For someone harping on sentences, you can't even put together a complete sentence.
You claim we struggle against weak opponents but over looked the entire part of my post that states we have not trailed one time in the 4th quarter and the only "close" game(s) were against Wisconsin (far from weak) and Minny (5 point game on scoreboard but not really that close)....and stop using the term we, you are not one of us
Dude, your mind must be bottled. Struggling doesn't mean we trailed. Just that it was way closer than it should be for how good we are.
Not that it matters, but we played in the 2012 B1G title game... What hotel should we stay at in Detroit? You should be familiar with the area, since Iowa's been playing bowl games there since the programs' inception.
Our offense has gotten considerably better since the whisky game. If we played them again we'd beat them by 20 minimum.
We don't need to throw td passes we are a well balanced team, we just run them in.
Another thing is I think we beat Michigan state too without the refs blessings.
Make no mistake this game could go either way. We won't get any pressure on Armstrong, but we will contain him....ok. this is one of those games where they will get their yards. We just need to capitalize on their turn overs and make the 3rd down conversions. It'll definitely be a tough game and a lot of nashing of teeth. I think we can squeeze out a victory. Who knows could be like the Michigan state game some years ago when we completely destroyed them. Nothing was going their way...and it snowballed. Both teams were decent and hawks probably weren't expected to win by much anyway. Could also be the other way around. Hawks could get blasted. Sometimes when two evenly matched teams play, bad luck can snowball.

I think the part that many forget is that we're installing an entirely new staff and system. I think our record this year is indicative of that.
The encouraging thing is that, unlike under Bo.....we appear to be getting better as the season progresses. The kids are buying in and are finally able to let their athleticism take over.
Your QB is a gamer and if we can't pressure him, it's going to be a tough game. But only a fool thinks that our record is indicative of our ability right now.
There's a reason that your best team(maybe ever) is favored by 1 point against arguably, one of our worst teams ever(W-L record).
If we're favored by 1, Koehn better be able to hit his extra points.
Also, you must be mistaken, this isn't out best team ever. The teams we have played aren't as good as some years past when we were better than we are today. This ties our most wins tho.
Best, most talented team? NO. Best QB... possibly.
We have a good team that plays good together.

That would normally be a safe statement, but I hate to say not true right now, at least over the last 3 games. No way the defense we saw over the past few weeks is the best Nebby has seen all year. Going to hope for respectable on D and to win it with the O
No one has ever said this is Iowa's best team. Personally our 2009 team was better and I would argue 2002 was much better overall team. So to say this is Iowa's best team?? That's a stretch. They are 11-0, but they are not world beaters. No one has ever said that they are the best team in Iowa History. So you need to check your Iowa History.
Your worst team, I am pretty sure there were some bad teams under Callahan. The only saving grace was that you were in the Big 12 North and there was no competition in that division.
LOL at Debbie being hostile. Sure was hostile last time we played there and won by 3 tds. FYI, Beathard ran for a 40 yard TD that game in clean up time. Wisconsin on the road is way tougher.
And thinking Debbie is a tough place to play when everyone wins there this year is being delusional as well.. Well, you did get the refs to give you the game vs MSU thanks to the'push' out of bounds and the no hold call when Calhoun was being put in a headlock.
Not sure what 1-5 means. You were 1-5 vs the teams Iowa played this year? That's probably true. BTW, cute comment. I'm guessing you're 15? Of course, you could be 30 (if you live in Neb), seeing what the the education system is like in Nebraska.
Fixed it for you. Holding happens on every play in football. Watch the pros and college there is holding on every play. The reason it doesn't get called is because it has no effect on the play, so there is no point in calling it.
Please name one time iowa played Detroit. 70-31 isn't playing in the championship, that's an ass whooping.
Lol you were down two score with 5 minutes to play and were gifted the game. If the refs make the correct call there is a totally different narrative.
A fan would know that 1-5 is KF's record against NU. You can say Memorial's not a tough place to play, but your recent record against us says otherwise. Hell, it really doesn't matter where we play you, actually.
It'll be fun to rain on this parade coming from the east. Glad you've got it chalked up as an easy win already. Will make it even sweeter.
This will be an excellent game. There is very little difference, if any, in the talent level of these teams. This game will be a very close game, like almost all of them.
