What can I say? The Big Ten is a tougher football conference than the Big XII. I mean, look at Maryland. Nebraska has a tough time beating even them. You guys know Maryland, right?...

Says the guys who hope to ride Oklahoma's coattails into the SEC. Do you think if it were an Oklahoma / Oklahoma State offer it would be a deal breaker to the SEC?... ...me neither.

Much better than if we had stayed. But we both knew that before you even asked, didn't we?😉

Well then, you should be able to totally empathize with Kansas State if this ever happens, correct?

You should have joined the Big Ten and not the SEC in that particular shooting war.

I think you are confusing being pissed with our feeling of validation that Nebraska did the right thing in shit canning the BIG 12 when we did. In this game of Musical Chairs, we grabbed our seat years ago. Good luck in getting a place to sit.

So...Nebraska REALLY DID have Oklahoma and Texas pegged correctly in 2010, right? Ten years of faux outrage and butthurt by both institutions duly noted. That is all.

Moos had a problem showing up to meetings and functions and there were concerns of him arriving safely to meetings and functions. I think everybody can read between the lines here. The smart money is on Ed Stewart or Hank Bounds replacing him. Bounds has done a great job lining up cash for the $155 million facilities drive.

Nebraska just ran out of arms, especially after having to come back and play one more game than Arkansas. We needed a one day rain delay so our shortstop could pitch in the middle innings. The Cornhuskers competed hard and overachieved this year (picked to be sixth in conference) but winning two out of three from #1 just wasn't in the cards. Arkansas, on the other hand, didn't really hit worth shit during the whole regional. Walks and wild pitches manufactured probably half or more of their runs. It doesn't bode well for them going forward unless they wake up.

Yeah, yeah, the Big 12 was the best thing that ever happened to Nebraska and they're just too stupid to know how good they had it with the Big 12. You sound like a jilted teenager. Get over it finally. You can have the last word, I see no use in reliving failed relationships ad nauseum.

If Nebraska leaving for more money and more stability was "really this fucking stupid", then yeah, that's right. There was a lot of talk from a lot of other teams in the Big 12 jumping ship at that time, if I recall from the Shaggy Bevo days. You might want to go do some digging over there and refresh your memory. Colorado and Nebraska took all the talk seriously and moved since they didn't want to end up like Rice and SMU being left behind when the Southwest Conference imploded. Get over it already. If one team bails on you, shame on them. If five teams bail on you, it might be a sign. Like the demotivational poster says, "The only common denominator in all of your unhappy relationships is you."

Also weird. I remember a lot of blustering about teams going to the Pac 10 and Nebraska worrying about being left behind like the SWC castoffs were before by their former conference mates were left. By the way, why was it okay for everybody to walk away from Rice and SMU and go to greener pastures but wasn't okay for Nebraska, Colorado, Missouri, and Texas A&M to leave?

Please elaborate.

Nebraska isn't a Sugar Daddy. It shouldn't be held responsible for how much money anyone else does or doesn't get in their conference.

Probably because Nebraska wasn't the one to break anything in the first place? Uhmm, that's a valid reason to jump and not really a bad thing, right?
