Just take a peek at all the Nebraska Cornhusker football forums. They are already wondering who their next coach will be in Lincoln. Minnesota's chances look good if they have better quarterback play and take advantage of turnovers. Go Gophers!!:clap::clap::pig::pig:
 

It's like Coach Kill said..."We're all friends, and we get each other fired."
 

I have always been wary of backing anyone into a corner. They could be playing with a lot more emotion/effort as a result of the criticism.
 

No offense to Nebraska because I like the program and their fans are nice, but I don't think losing to this Gophers team at home should warrant Bo's firing. It should be a competitive game and I like the Gopher's chances, but Nebraska could win the turnover battle and the fans could play a big factor as well.
 

Only if the game were played on internet message boards.

Also, were all the periods neccesary in the thread title?
 


Has Nebraska ever lost more than 3 games with him?
They should think about Callahan. They should then think about Lloyd Carr and Michigan. Then make a decision.


They could hire someone great. They could also become the 1970-present gophers.

Every year that he has been head coach there. Exactly four losses every season. The amount of four loss seasons seems to be why a lot of the fan base is fed up with him.

I seem to recall some similar talk about Beckmann before the Illinois game. I hope we are not banking on Nebraska checking out but rather our be ready to play the best game of the year to date.

Go Gophers!
 

Pelini's a solid football mind, but he may be one of those guys who isn't cut out to be a top-tier head coach. He's calmed down dramatically. I thought he was going to get axed as soon as Dr. Tom left.
 

They've been ranked at the end of the last 5 seasons.

How good do they think Nebraska football should be?

The glory days are over.

This made me laugh. Not that I doubt it, just because this message board had a thread about getting rid of Kill after the TCU loss. Message boards is so stupid.

The glory days are not over in the minds of Nebraska fans. It's 2014. What the people in mass whine about they get. Michigan AD, NFL, lots of
court of public opinion stuff in social media happens. Depends how hot things get. We score 59 and he's gone. :clap:
 

I think Pellini is a tool, but Nebraska fans are delusional. The days of Osborne recruiting semi-literate gangsters to come in and run the table in the Big 8 are long gone. Lincoln isn't a destination where a lot of top recruits are going to want to spend four years. I'm not saying they shouldn't fire him, but if they think that the glory days are going to magically return, they're sorely mistaken. NU is a decent program, but they aren't the national title contenders they once were.

You lived in Lincoln or went to school at UNL? How is Lincoln different than Ann Arbor or Columbus or Starksville or Eugene?

I lived in Lincoln, have family and friends that graduated from UNL and can tell you that Lincoln is a great place to go to school and live (during and after school). It isn't a big metro like Mpls, but then that has its drawbacks too.

They have great facilities, invest heavily in football and the freaking state loves their team. The right coach can compete for B1G titles in Lincoln and regardless of what eSECpn talking heads say, the winner of the B1G will be in the playoffs more times than not.
 

I'd rather focus on the fact that if the Gophers win in Lincoln, it will set up the biggest Gopher game in my lifetime: For the B1G West Title. For the Axe.
 

They had players getting " extra benefits" starting in the Devaney years. Osborne carried it over. I had
Omaha for a territory for 19 years and the best stories came from the old Playboy Club in Omaha that was attached to the Sheraton Hotel. The bouncers were pretty free about the info on Nebraska football players. Johnny Rogers was treated like a god. I remember a Minnesota kid by the name of Von Shephard went there and it was like a country club there. He went there on a visit and after that never considered Minnesota. The great thing about Nebraska is the alumni base are thicker than thieves and it is the oath of allegiance to protect everything about Nebraska football. Don't get me wrong, Lincoln is a great town with tremendous fans, but it is the middle of two large corn fields.

It isn't the losses that are dooming him - it's the scale of the losses, and regularly getting embarrassed in key games.
 

Maybe I'm a Football Socialist, but why shouldn't Nebraska, Michigan, and even OSU fans be okay taking their turn through football mediocrity? Our fans have done our share of taking the medicine, and it builds character.
