Nebraska is really in a bad spot. They lost all ties to Texas following their departure from the Big XII and they can't effectively recruit California outside of the PAC 12, which leaves the Midwest where they're fifth in the pecking order behind tOSU, Michigan, Wisconsin and Michigan State. Academics and location are mediocre. Looking forward, they project out to be a mid tier program.

? IIRC, they have 15 recruits with something like a 3.3 average on Rivals. Not exactly bad recruiting.

Not bad recruiting, typically in the 25-30 range in team rivals rankings (much better than CU fwiw). However, that's well behind Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, slightly behind Michigan State and about the same as Wisconsin. However, more problematic is the lack of focus on a particular region for recruiting. They're scattershot all over the country. That works for Stanford with elite academics to sell, but doesn't look like a recipe for long term successs for kNU. You need ties to regions/schools to get you through down years. Over the last 4 years (2014-2016, plus the '17 commits), they've grabbed 8 total kids out of Texas.

This year, the Buffs class is #19 and Bugeaters are #25 so far.

Or Cal is a totally different team running a completely different offense. Apples and Oranges.

Not sure why I'm defending Webb though. **** him
 
Dumb speculation. The ball would have bounced differently. Maybe worse, maybe better. Wouldn't trade ours. Validates Mac Mac's process.

The ESPN comment about how the Beyes could jump UW in the CFP rankings is exactly what I hate. They said the Beyes have beat more ranked teams. Why were those teams they beat ranked and not the ones UW beat? They mentioned that even PSU was ranked after they beat the Beyes. Well PSU was ranked only because they beat the Beyes. UofM absolutley sodomized PSU. ESPN was sucking Beye off for gang raping #10 NU. Let me tell you: not once this year was NU anywhere close to the 10th best team in college football. The whole thing is a self-licking ice cream cone for much of the media.

Especially when you consider that NU lost their starting qb during the game. Of course OSU was going to mudhole them.

We lost our starting Q against UM and were winning at the time. Nubs had zero chance...even with him in there.

My point was the OSU does not deserve to jump UW in the playoff rankings. Nubs were gonna lose bad anyway, but they probably would have had maybe two more scores in the process. Plus that NU backup is no Montez.

Ranking versus Washington shouldn't matter to OSU at this point anyway - barring some upsets, the winner of OSU / Michigan will be in the playoff, so even being #5 right now is just fine for them.

Who knows how the cobgobblers will finish, but we're ahead because of 21 vs 15 recruits, our average being lower. We even trail them overall (by one spot) on Scout.

They were already down 24-3 in the 2nd Quarter and getting mudholed. Armstrong had thrown a pick 6 and was well on his way to another horrible passing day. He is currently near last in the NCAA in completion percentage trailing only Rutgers, Army, UNLV, Air Force and Tulane. The Huskers will be a lot better when they find a passer who can do what Oregon State did for years under Riley.

Nebraska was never a #10 team in the country. They barely survived Oregon at home and have not beaten anyone that is decent. The B1G is a joke of a conference beyond tOSU and Michigan. Nebraska is 4-2 in conference and wouldn't do that well in the PAC12.

The gap between Tommie Armstrong and any #2 is huge. HCMR is lucky TA is as good of a passer as he is or NU would be far worse. He has actually been able to run the west coast O pretty well. They were more than likely going to get beat with TA but without him, it just imploded.
I'm happy he's ok, it looked far far worse as he was carted off. Hard to be mad at OSU, what their team did with a number 27 OSU helmet presented to his parents in membrance of Sam Foltz before the game, the sections with the Sam Foltz logoed #27 placards and how thier fans chanted Tommie Armstrong as he was wheeled off, to a standing O upon his return, as far as I'm concerned, was one of the classiest things I've seen from a fanbase and rival program in decades.

Gotcha. Good point...UW needs to be #4...gonna look great when we beat the #4 team in the country in the PAC12 champ game!

tOSU was gonna win that game by 3 scores if Tommie Frazier was NU's QB.

Talent difference was pretty glaring.

I wonder how many players Nebraska had on that field that would have made tOSU's two deep. I'm guessing the number doesn't go over 10.

Buckeyes were the stronger, quicker, faster, more skilled team.
 
i don't think UW "needs" to be #4 right now......they have work to do....USC is playing well and beating a Wazzou team that was unranked a week ago.....gets them to the championship game. if they win out over USC, WSU and CU/Utah...then OK.

nothing to worry about. no conference disrespect. UW has played exactly one ranked team....it's reality there should be skepticism. maybe they aren't that good. maybe we are the team to beat them.

i'm not a huge fan of this "automatic" conference hooray crap. that's being taken in by the SEC/ESPN ballsucking homerism.
 
If UDub wins out, they are in. No doubt about it.

Michigan seems to be getting the biggest pass of any team.

He was hit out of bounds and no call, right?

It was an ugly way to fall. There was nothing illegal about the tackle. Tripped up right at the sideline, and the way he was holding the ball didn't allow him to brace himself before hitting the ground.
