The team revealed itself to be the team you thought it was. They have a chance to beat Oregon and Iowa. But they cannot get out of their own way. A loss is a loss and I refuse view it as anything else. Please bring the downvotes. They pissed that fucking game away

Anyone who says otherwise is lying about the state of Nebraska football.

Great job by Cignetti and crew. Nebraska once again fails to get over the hill for the same issue as the previous 25 years.

In some ways this is a step forward. Nebraska can hang with the Big boys. 

In other ways it’s exactly the same. Pissing a big game away that was yours to lose in a new, agonizing way.

Oh cool? Did they fucking win?

No? Cool? I’m super glad we will all view it as anything but a loss in 10 years

Just like the Michigan 2021 loss or the 2019 Ohio state loss. I view those as super positive moments in the programs history. “Best 3-9 team of all time” type shit pretending like this is anything but a loss

i think it will all depend on how the rest of the season plays out Isms. they can use this to springboard and go 10-2 or 11-1? then yeah i think we view this loss differently in the future. if they limp the rest of the year (like they have in the past) then unfortunately you'll be right and it's more of the same.
