Note to MSU: avoid bowl games against Nebraska

RocketCityDawg · Dec 30, 2009

I think we've only faced off against them once, that in a bowl game.
As I recall without doing any research, over 30 years ago, they beat us something like 34-17?
Sun Bowl or some such.

They seem to do well post-season.

They were ranked as bad as Croom's offense, something like 112 overall. In comes Bo, now they are bad ***.

Shmuley · Dec 30, 2009

they will dominate the ***** 12 north. Of course, that ain't saying much right now.

SLUdog · Dec 30, 2009

NU's D is as good as any in the SEC except perhaps Bama right now. They will be 10-2 next year....

patdog · Dec 30, 2009

until they met up with a bunch of nobodies in Miami in the Orange Bowl. Even still, if Osborne had gone for 1 at the end of the game, Nebraska would have won a national title.

and that will make a huge difference in the entire defense. They'll be good next year, but their defense won't be as dominant.

SLUdog · Dec 30, 2009

Suh is obviously a big loss, but the defensive depth and other positions will most likely be improved. The O will be better also. I'm going with 10-2 and a return to Big 12 Championship game.

If we'd played their 2010 schedule this season, we'd have won at least 8 games easily.

1984 Orange Bowl... what a game.

RocketCityDawg · Dec 30, 2009

And while I didn't remember the actual final score, I do remember that it was a massive butt-whooping.

Kind of like the one AZ got today. OK, maybe not quite as bad.
