The easy part of the schedule is done. Now we see what this team is really about. We should get some sort of a minor bowl bid if Ganz (QB) can stay healthy. (Sorry, probably a lot more than you wanted to hear.)

no, not at all. the more info the better. i read an article (maybe in SI) about pelini really reaching out, wanting everyone involved again. no doubt he knows PR is a huge part of being a head coach, and getting a chance to turn that program around. it didn't go south overnight, it won't get fixed overnight.
i hope it works out for you all, i've never been much of a nebraska fan personally, but i know it hurts to see a team with a lot of tradition go downhill like it did. i've been dealing with that type of thing ever since jack kent cooke passed away and dan snyder bought the skins!
one thing that irritated me a bit with pelini is that when he was at lsu, he was the only coach on the sidelines to wear a different shirt than all the other coaches and crew. but i guess it worked out, he stood out. and no one can question the D lsu had while he was there...
