I have a friend from North Platte on the phone asking me if he should get in the tub with his toaster oven or eat a bag of Tide Pods. What should I tell him?
Toaster oven at least gives him a chance to have one last tasty swig of Busch Lite before he heads to the big Memorial Stadium in the sky.

Who can Nebraska pull after they fire Frost? If he hadn’t just taken the Duke job, I think Elko could have done well in Lincoln.

Probably should start with the NDSU coach or some other FCS guy from the plains.

You have to think Elko would still make that move. They're still a blueblood in the B1G instead of a basketball school in the ACC.

Pretty surprising that their boosters aren’t dropping bigger bags than A&M. Warren Buffett, wya?

As I said that I’m watching the ILL/Wyoming game. Craig Bohl from Wyoming would make a ton of sense for Nebraska.

Tuned into UConn-Utah State and UConn is actually electric running the football… Up 14-0 over the defending MW champs

They really should’ve just joined the MAC or CUSA for football and stayed in the BigEast or American for other sports.

I just continue to be shocked that Scott Frost hasn’t gotten it done at Nebraska. Every week they invent a new way to lose a one score game.

That onside kick was really the only data point I needed. Scott Frost just can't get out of his own way. He gets a score after a phantom penalty then gets a key turnover and quick score and he goes for the onside.

Seven loses in a row and six of them by one score,……. The other one by only ten points or some such

I missed that but the three quarters I watched,… damn that has to frustrate the hell out of Nebraska fans bc that is a win about 90 percent of the time

I'm thinking more that Nebraska wouldn't eat that contract buyout AND Frost's? Idk, maybe Elko prefers not to be in Nebraska either.

I'll be honest, Elko at Nebraska scares me. I think he could recruit just well enough to be a real pain in the ass. It'd be great before we end up joining the BIG10 but he'd really make that program dangerous without making them a contender.

Last year they lost to Michigan, Michigan State, Wisconsin, and OSU by a combined 20 points or something silly like that.

I've written long posts about my thoughts on Nebraska before. Hard job. High expectations. They should stick with Frost I think. At least they are competitive. They aren't gonna get an elite coach there so if they fire him, they better do so knowing that.

Scott Frost has one, ONE….winning season as a head coach. He’s a lameduck and will be gone by November

Probably an up and coming coordinator/G5 HC, or a lower level P5 HC. Maybe Klieman from Kansas State?

I was watching this game for a few minutes and the announcers were saying oh FSU is running the ball so well. No shit they should be considering the level of play difference.
The UNLV game too they were slurping all over UNLV when I checked in,…

Same thing I was thinking when they said that.

Frost’s buyout cuts in half October 1. Today was a literal can not lose game and he blew it. If he makes it to week 6 I’ll be shocked

Thunder storms around campus might delay the UTEP game,… more importantly what would have been the first sellout since forever will now certainly see some fans go home

Cannot fathom a way he does. Maybe if Nebraska beats OU and only has the loss to Northwestern?
