Interesting post over on Sunday Morning Quarterback, where he reviews the Huskers 2007 season. Most of what he says is dead on and undeniably true. However, to state that Nebraska has lost their "mystique" is like trying to convince people that you no longer jerk it to pictures of Goldie Hawn. The drop dead fear factor may be currently missing, but it's assinine to say that you can't talk about Nebraska in the same breath as Ohio State, Notre Dame, Michigan, LSU, USC, or Texas, to rattle off a few. Last I checked, they still have the third most wins in NCAA history, which is pretty intimidating.
And I think most people are still going to need to see more from KU and MU before we accept their rise to "respectability" as truth. The other problem is that too many people seem to be overlooking the mental, emotional, and flat out brain power influence that Bo Pelini is not only going to have on the team of players, but the ENTIRE Husker nation. People get behind him, Memorial Stadium will always be rocking, and without even playing a game I am already convinced that his record in four years will be at least 30 percentage points higher than Callahanjobs.
Remember the Alamo!!
