Iowa had 12-0 rings made. But they were 12-2, and didn't win the conference or the NC. You were talking shit about participation trophies when Iowa's AD did the biggest participation trophy yet in the modern history of the game.
So Chubby Purdy is leaving...
- Thread starter joelbc1
- Start date
Which is worse, conference champion shirts when you didn’t win or….. never mind, no comparison….
I wouldn't take Deacon over almost anybody.
I’ll take a 5th year sr over a true frosh. McNamara has the experience and played in a lot of big games. Before argument thrown out with talent he has at Michigan vs Iowa I’d say look what raiola is working with next year. Good luck to a true freshman and the offensive play makers he has or lack there of he will have at his disposal. (Now waiting for husker fans to tell us about all the unproven talent of underclassman and transfers that are all of a sudden going to make them a great offense).
And then throw a pick to cost them the game. Sorry, low hanging fruit but it still works.
Who was talking about conference championship shirts? I was talking about the 12 - 0 ring when your team was 12 - 2 lol. There is no bigger participation trophy in the modern history of NCAA football.
I believe I mentioned it. Think that a ring for an undefeated regular season pales in comparison to printing shirts for something you never one is probably a little(lot) worse as far as participation awards go. But that’s just me, well and pretty much everyone else…. Other than simple minded Nebraska fans….. need help recognizing simple minded Nebraska fans? Start with a mirror.
Leave it to you guys to spin the Huskers bringing in the #1 QB recruit in the nation as a negative.
You can think that but unfortunately he is probably the one that will improve things over there.
If last year was any indication, nah!
ESPN had a piece on how many 5* QBs excel and only half do.
For every Trevor Lawrence, there's a Shea Patterson.
No. Nothing is worse than the 12-0 ring. I think that most rational Iowa fans would even admit it.
I will get a tattoo of Kirk Ferentz's face on my face if Casey Thompson plays for the Huskers in 2024.
This.
In his first career start, winning a bowl game, freshman Labas completed 14 of his 24 passing attempts for 139 yards and a touchdown.
No interceptions. No fumbles.

Let’s see if I can simplify this
Undefeated regular season, division championship = Accomplishment
Recognition for accomplishment = reasonable
Printing t-shirt proclaiming conference championship and then not winning conference championship = moronic
And yes I realize the Herculean task I am attempting to perform here.
Simplifying a simple concept enough that even you can comprehend = miraculous and some claim impossible
So, a true freshman will be better than Cade McNamera? And for the record, I predict Nebby’s new QB…Raviolli
won’t even play vs Iowa as he will be hurt by then, just like most Nebby QB’s are by the end of the season.For comparison, Mahomes was a 3 star, # 30th ranked high school QB…so forgive me if I don’t go by rankings & stars by high school player’s names.
Deacon would be great for final plays when you need an 80 yard Hail Mary pass to the end zone, if he had time to throw...
Was Labas a true freshman when all this happened, or had he had a year or two of practice scenario?
The 12-0 ring is still much worse. I don't expect you to understand how silly it looks. Like both teams going into a championship game have merch printed. How do you think they pull on a championship hat or shirt right after the game? Celebrating the pinnacle of a programs existence and then subsequently losing 2 straight to follow it up - during that same season - is hilarious.
Raiola will be better than Iowa's QB. Next year. Unless someone on Nebraska's roster is better than Raiola, which is unlikely.So, a true freshman will be better than Cade McNamera? And for the record, I predict Nebby’s new QB…Raviolli
How many true frosh come in and just tear it up in P5? Husker fans could be in a rude awakening if they think he’s coming into be the savior year 1 next season. Very few cases that do and look at their supporting cast of those who do. Even guys like Aller at PSU as a red shirt with phenomenal OL and RBs and good wr had struggled in big games and vs good Ds.So, a true freshman will be better than Cade McNamera? And for the record, I predict Nebby’s new QB…Raviolli
Who does Nebraska surround him with next year as play makers? Nothing much to write home about. And for all the jokes about Iowa’s pathetic offense take in account Nebraska scored the exact same amount of pts as Iowa did in the regular season.

anything Nebraska related.
Wake me up when they do anything relevant
Ummmmm, you seem to think that those shirts were printed after they had qualified for the championship game......
Only reason he was 4th string at Wisconsin last year was because they didn't have a 5th quarterback.
Going 12-0 the regular season is an accomplishment for most teams, not a lot have done that. For the Hawks, 2015 was a first. Certainly a brain trust like you can appreciate the difference between regular season play and extended play for championship games and bowl games. I realize Nebby hasn't experienced an extended season in a very long time and a 12-0 regular season for even longer. So maybe you have forgotten how big such a thing is. You'll probably have 6-6 rings made some day if the mighty skers can ever manage it.
He may be better at turning the ball over, seems the talented Nebby quarterbacks (who have always been better than ours) have a particular skill at fugging up and choking the games away. I expect he'll 5 star his way to failure. It's a Nebraska tradition.
says the fan who thought they were the best 3-9 team in the country. That was pathetic, going 12-0 is a serious accomplishment. A ring seems reasonable. Even a sker should realize that.
The skers will make it a negative when he chokes away games like all their superior quarterbacks do. No spin required.
