Nebraska fans are an interesting bunch. It is easy to appreciate how much they love their team, no matter how bad they are. However, they are also extremely delusional.

Having spent a lot of time working around Nebraska and eastern Colorado, these people are still living in the 90s. I cannot tell you how many times I have heard that Frank Solich and Bo Pelini were the worst coaches ever. I buy into the idea that they were flawed, but they did a good job given Nebraska’s geography and reality.

So many were also convinced that this year’s team was going to win all of the close games they lost the year before and get into the CFB playoffs.

Of course every fan base is delusional to some extent. I like Matt Rhule and I hope he does well, but I wouldn’t hate it if Nebraska was terrible for another 10 years.
