Your last New year's Day game was....? Not only that, but how many new Year's Day games have you played in? Has mediocrity even been achieved???

Apparently we watched 2 differnet games. CU did basically nothing but hold on for dear life after their 1st 2 drives. Well, unfortunately for you, the game is longer than 5 min. If I remember correctly, it was tied at the end of the 1st period.
No, we haven't beaten someone as good as OU yet, but more importantly, we haven't lost to someone as bad as....well nevermind.
As far as outcoached goes...if getting a 14 pt lead , a gift TD before the end of the 1st half AND the opponent fizzles about 6 times INSIDE your 20, including a fumble going in for a TD AND you STILL manage to LOSE the game isn't the definition of getting out coached, then I admittedly don't know what it is.
Conversely, reverse the above and still win. If that isn't good coaching, then I, again, don't know what is.

O.K. let's get back to the topic of this thread. And yes I know that opinions are like a$$*oles. Everyone has one!
I say CU looks to go 3-3 at home this year (that's the down side), it may turn into a 4-2 home record if things go well.
The away record stands to be about the same.
A .500 season or better is about right.
Before any of you pound me about the Huskers. I will go out on a limb and say they could stumble a little this year with 7-8 wins, but they could show a 9 or 10 win season if the ball bounces their direction. But remember what I said about opinions!
Damn, it's looking to be a long time until the season begins. :sad1:

A 9 or 10 win season from a team that has one win over a ranked opponent since 2001? Where's the magic wand?

Sounds like the YABBIT season extends to Kneebraskie too......:smile2:
Seriously, it extends to everywhere, to all fans of all sports in the offseason. I can read fuskerpedia, they YABBIT there every minute of the day. He (not you COHSKER) was throwing stones in galss houses with that comment.

I hear all the arguments, and I'm not seeing a loss at home. None. Nada. No, not at home, not this year.

Plus we are limiting the stupid spread and going back to running downhill. That, plus a healthy O-line and healthy backups with playing time, a healthy Speedy, Scott, Sumler, Lockridge will mean LOTS of pressure taken off the QB. Oh, and more TE's available, and Simas and the JC WR will help greatly too, as Josh will not be able to be doubleteamed all the time.

Mizzou is a big question mark-- can't say either way what that looks like, but KU should NOT come in here and win this year. No way.
If we lose to the gayhawks again this year I'm going to freak the fack out. I'll lose it. I mean it. I'll go freaking postal. We've had that team beat the last three years and have found new and improved ways of blowing it each and every time. Never again.
No kidding. The realization at halftime of last year's game that we were headed for a third straight loss to KU even after dominating the first half sucked.

Plus they're a basketball school. I bet half their basketball fans don't even know what the football team has done the last couple years.

Yep, it's due time we beat these guys. That reesing dude started this 3yr skid. What was it 9-0 at the half and they put him in and game over..for 3 years.
I swear Reesing won the 2007 game with a handful of scrambles. Dude has our number, no doubt about it.
That, and a very ill timed fumble at the goal line by Hugh.
grrrrrr. Just thinking about that game makes me sick.

Don't forget the drop by Smith on fourth down late in the game. Didn't lose the game for us, but if he'd held on we would have been in pretty good scoring position.
