So Florida sucks at football? 

Since 2013 they have 3 losing seasons. 

They don't suck but are very up and down as of late unlike before when just winning 8+ games would get you on hot seat. 

Hopefully we catch them down this year they definitely didn't look great to close out last season.

the onside kick decision was horrendous. not sure if that was him or the special teams coordinator insisting it, but overall, it must be horrible to be a Nebraska fan after that kind of game

 

 

I'm not 100% against this risky/gutsy play call by Frost. He's up against an equal opponent, he needs to push their confidence down while catching them off guard. He didn't and it was a reversal of fortune. 

Similar as to what Leavitt did at Pitt to open the 2nd half in 2001.

Except Leavitt wasn't up against an equal opponent. CJL's move was great move, especially consdiering it worked ...... Frost's was idiotic. Midway through 3rd quarter, up by 2 scores to an equal opponent you don't want to give any advantage to if you don't have to with a play that's iffy to work to begin with ...... dumb.

I'm in my early 40s and barely remember them being a power house...it ended In early 2000s. Had a few good years around 2010 it looks like. 

They went 30 years with not one losing season....pretty remarkable. 

 

 

I remember in the 90s Tom Osborne was admired and reviled similar to Nick Saban of today or Pete Caroll at USC in the mid 2000s...Nebraska definately had their time in the sun.

Nebraska was favored by 12...or 13 depending on the book. Not an equal opponent by any stretch...

They ran the triple option. Mastered the triple option. Dare I say it comes back?
