re: Nebraska with an all time choke

I don't know how die hard, long time Nebraska football fans continue to reconcile what they've seen for the past 25 years with what they grew up seeing.
Somewhat related, but I don't see how Iowa fans do what they do. A quarter century of 8 or 9 wins. Occasionally 10 and an accidental conference title game berth, but never a threat to win a championship. And they play the most boring brand of football.
I guess maybe they know their place and are happy with it.
Schools like Tennessee and Nebraska got tired of winning 9 games, fired competent coaches, and then spent years in purgatory.

Almost nobody in college football had a real chance to win a championship until the expansion playoff to 12 teams, absent catching lightning in a bottle.
Since 1936, the top 5 programs amassed over half of the titles.
Iowa is a small state where small town participation in the sport was always huge, no pro team to follow, and it created a religious following that dates back to the 1910s. Families are raised on Iowa football.
But to act like Iowa never had a chance is silly. Dating back to the early 80s they’ve had a handful of teams capable of beating anyone. The were 12-0 in 2015. 2002 they were legit 2009 they were a play away from an outright conference title and played a defacto title game at tOSU.
Shitloads of NFL players and consensus AA, national award winners—always good, only great when the stars align. If you can’t understand it, you don’t understand the essence of college football.

I respect Iowa fans. I had no idea they are as die-hard as they are until I met one in the Navy. He took college football just as seriously as I did.

That guy (Raiola ?) that thinks or thought he was Mahomes…that was just weird.
Even more weird that he left Nebraska as a starter to go to Oregon and be a 2nd/3rd stringer.

He came off the bench a few weeks ago to beat Nebraska

Nebraska is also on a 32 game losing streak to ranked opponents. I live there now and they really suffer

Nebraska again won the yardage battle tonight.

The Nebraska people are good and fun people. Lincoln is a great town. If it were Auburn/LSU/Tenn or any other SEC school, the stadium would be 2/3 empty.
They show up every weekend knowing the result before the ball is kicked.
I hate it for them, but I can't help but chuckle at this point.
Poverty program.

You realize that sellout streak is phony. Boosters buy up unsold tickets at a deep discount to keep that streak going. Fraudulent, just like the football program.

Rhule’s 13 y/o daughter should avoid all Nebraska fans.

Iowa fan. Checks outs in this fake rivalry.
Nobody said anything about the sellout streak. They still have great fan support.

Tom Osbourne must have sold their soul to finally get his national championships in the 90s.
Must have??? He absolutely did. Dr. Tom is one of the biggest hypocrites in college football history this side of JoePa. Dr Tom was famous for getting beat in big bowl games with national titles on the line and preaching about "doing it the right way". So, what did he do to finally get a NC? Start bringing in thugs and criminal elements like Lawrence Phillips and Christian Peter (but still pontificating about how they were above such things). He and JoePa were full of shite. Give Switzer over those two every time.

Fake? Live on the border a few years and you'll know it's not take. Nebraska could lose like this for the next 100 years and it wouldn't be long enough.
Their fans are obnoxious.

You guys played 6 times between World War 2 to 2010. Nebraska is a fake Big 10 team. They have 3 teams that are bigger rivals from the Big 12.
Iowa fans jumping into every Nebraska thread. You’d think they were little brother, not you.

Sounds a lot like LSU between 1958-2003. It's pretty easy to understand for me.
