Part Two
Nebraska is not just a football school. You have many other outstanding athletic programs. Which non-revenue generating sport will benefit the most from the move to the Big 10?
HM: You know what, I'm going to go with baseball. I think the Husker program could dominate here. The Big Ten really hasn’t been very good in baseball, and Nebraska’s been a national contender at times recently. One could argue that a weak conference could hurt the Huskers, but then we’ve seen schools come out of weak conferences and compete nationally. It just means those non-conference games have to be beefed up.
Jon: That is tough, but it has to be baseball if Nebraska can keep a non-conference schedule that maintains a high RPI. Nebraska has one of the best college baseball stadiums in the nation in Haymarket Park - Penn State baseball fans will enjoy making that trip. In fact, I'll go so far as to say it might embarrass some Big Ten teams into improving their baseball experience.
Penn State Women's Volleyball team are the reigning and defending four time National Champions. Nebraska's women's team is also pretty dominant. Be honest, are you excited for the annual Penn State vs. Nebraska women's volleyball matches?
HM: Volleyball is big here, and watching the way your fans followed the team to KC this December makes me think this is going to be one heck of a rivalry.
Jon: Yes. Very much so. No sarcasm intended - the Big Ten is going to be one helluva volleyball conference.
Cael Sanderson has re-energized the Penn State wrestling program, leading the Nittany Lions to their first ever Big Ten Title. Nebraska is located next to the hotbed of college wrestling (Iowa, although I would argue that Pennsylvania produces the most D-1 grapplers). Do you think the move from the Big 12 will hurt or help the Nebraska wrestling team?
HM: Again, hard to say. The Big 12 is solid in wrestling as well, so I don't know how much of an effect the move is going to have here. I will confess that I really don't follow wrestling at all.
Jon: Wait, I have to call in a lifeline. This one comes from one of our members that closely follows the wrestling program:
It will be very tough for the Nebraska team to compete. They will be a middle of the pack team most of the years. The Big Ten is a "grinder" conference and that isn't the type of wrestler that comes out of Nebraska. Nebraska does not compete well head to head in recruiting with Iowa, Ohio State, or Penn State. They hold their own on the mat vs. Minnesota from one year to the next, but they do not have the depth from top to bottom in their lineup to challenge the top.
The Big 12 -- all five teams that wrestle -- usually has three tough wrestlers in each weight class, maybe four in a few. In the Big Ten, there are at least five or six tough kids, sometimes seven or eight. Coach Manning will have to change his approach as he has never put much of a priority on duals. In the Big 10, duals are a real big deal. Plus, he won't be able to schedule as many lower tier teams due to commitments in the conference to help younger wrestlers get some "confidence wins." Wrestling is one sport where Nebraska will not be as good off as they were in the Big 12.
Any other sports teams we should keep our eye on?
HM: Other than baseball, I don’t know. Anybody in the Big Ten follow men’s gymnastics?
Jon: Actually, Nebraska’s bowling team is one of the best in the nation, and we typically compete very well in track and field.
Penn State will be going D-1a in hockey in the near future. Any chance Nebraska does?
HM: Doubtful. I follow Nebraska-Omaha in hockey as well. That program’s move to the WCHA created the opening for Penn State in the CCHA. I really don’t see why the Big Ten would add hockey as a conference sport. Most of the other Big Ten schools that have hockey teams are nationally competitive (yes, I’m looking at you, Brutus); I don’t think the Michigans and Minnesotas want to beat on each other all season and likely bump one or two out of the Big Skate each season. The costs to add hockey are too high IMHO for Nebraska to take on.
Not many Big 10 schools have "Rifle" as a sport. Any chance Nebraska scraps that sport, or will they continue to compete against other rifle schools?
HM: Nope. Gender equity means women’s sports stay.
Jon: One thing you should know about Nebraska women. They’re tough as nails. Then you have some who have rifles. You go tell them you’re taking away their sport and I’ll sell tickets to what happens next.
Thanks again to Jon and Husker Mike from Corn Nation. Make sure you follow them on twitter ( @cornnation) and also on SBNation. This won't be the only time we collaborate with these guys this year, so get to know them BSDers (and Divas).

This will be very important
Coach Manning will have to change his approach as he has never put much of a priority on duals.
Duals really affect seeding for the Big Ten tournament. This year’s tourney showed the importance of seeding to the overall success of the team.

The Big Ten is a “grinder” conference and that isn’t the type of wrestler that comes out of Nebraska.
I’m not sure what this means. What I know for sure is that the coaches in the Big Ten are better and so is the talent. Back in the old days, though, the Big 8 did have an advantage in cheating ala Okie State back in the 80s – did I mention screw Okie State? Screw Okie State. I mean, how pathetic of an fanbase do you have to be to encourage cheating in wrestling?

Anybody in the Big Ten follow men’s gymnastics?
Penn State is one of the best (Wiki says we have the most NCAA Championships with 12), and Michigan, Illinois, and Ohio State are always competitive. 2008 Olympian Kevin Tan was a Penn State grad and is actually still at State as an assistant coach.
Same four schools are strong at women’s gymnastics, with Michigan usually leading the way.
Gus, don't be a gooey chocolate chip cookie.
I'm kind of sad that I didn't know we had a great Men's gymnastics team
but now that I think of it, I remember doing a scavenger hunt at the PSU All-Sports Museum last year (AWESOME place if anyone has never been btw) and one of the things to find was “Which PSU sport has the most national championships?” and I’m almost positive the answer was PSU Men’s gymnastics
Suprisingly, no, but I just looked it up, and they're actually tied with 12 NC's each
Men’s and women’s fencing are combined according to wikipedia, so that might be why the answer to the question was gymnastics instead of fencing. Either way, extremely impressive for both sports.
Big Ten Network had a PSU-OSU men's gymnastic meet on last night
It was probably tape delayed but I watched it anyway. If Ohio State is usually competitive then Penn State must be really good this year. We crushed them.
Baseball
I google image searched their baseball field, and while nice, I think they might have oversold it a bit.
It definitely won’t embarass any schools into upgrading their facilities. The Big 10 just doesn’t set up well to be a baseball conference.
i was looking directly at Minnesota when I wrote that.

Won't embarrass any...
Big 10 schools to upgrading baseball/softball facilities.
I guess that means there is a Big 10 facility that has twice in the last 8 years, or since the facility was first built, been voted the best collegiate baseball/softbal facility in the country.
Gosh, I didn’t know that.
There isn’t a baseball/women’s softball facility in the Big 10 that deserves mention in the same breathe as Haymarket Park.

Our baseball team may not be a powerhouse, but I'd say that Lubrano is one of the best in the conference

Big 10 W Volleyball is going to be ludicrously good
PSU is the best program over the last decade, Nebraska is in the top 3 or 4, Minnesota just scored the Olympic team’s coach, and Wisconsin and Illinois are both getting really good.
I absolutely cannot wait for the next few years of PSU Women's V-ball
The team is very young (we will only have 2(!) seniors next year), and while Wilson, Brown, Quillico, and D’Errico and her ridiculous jump serve will be sorely missed, the NC match was thanks in part to a dominating performance from a lot of the underclassmen who absolutely kicked ass.
Now with a V-ball powerhouse like Nebraska, it’s going to make the seasons to come even more exciting.
Her and Deja McClendon are going to be downright scary
assuming Darcy is back to full knee strength at the start of the season, which she should be. We’ve also got Kristin Carpenter at setter, who was nasty in the championship game. She’s only 5-6, but was up blocking shots. She also flawlessly pulled off the fake set spike multiple times in that match, which is one my favorite moves when playing the setter position. It’s not as much fun when you’re the one getting duped by the setter, but she sold it brilliantly every time.
it's BECAUSE she's 5'6" she sold it
At the beginning of every match when it happened, the first couple of times the announcers sounded a bit surprised. And I think that, no matter who was opposite her, they never really though she’d be able to dink it over against them, or block them—the confidence that comes with being nearly a foot taller than the person on the other side of the net from you.
Fire Dan Snyder
Volleyball is big here, and watching the way your fans followed the team to KC this December makes me think this is going to be one heck of a rivalry.
First off, thanks. Secondly, I was amazed at the number of NU fans there considering they had been knocked out of the tourney in an early round. Easily the largest fanbase represented there. I look forward to a trip to Lincoln this year. If they scheduled it the same weekend as a major football game (Ohio State-Nebraska?) I would be in heaven.

Big Ten hockey conference
I think these guys don’t fully appreciate how the Big Ten Network has changed the business model for conference sports now. While there may not have been much benefit before, the prospect of putting Michigan-MSU or Minnesota-Wisconsin or PSU vs. any of them on the BTN on a Friday night is very attractive and sure to drive ratings. Ratings attracts advertising which brings in money.
Frankly, I don’t see the advantage to NOT forming a Big Ten hockey conference.
I've been secretly hoping
that the advantage is enough to encourage UN-L to absorb UN-O’s hockey program.

True,
and the B1G conference gives the other one a conference home. Without the B1G Hockey conference there’s no more room at the inn. I’m making an assumption that PSU would be the 12th member of CCHA. If that’s the case there aren’t enough conferences to accommodate any new teams (and just a matter of time until Alabama-Huntsville folds) and that’s not a good thing.

Oh sure
Just throw fuel on the flames for the 20 Bemidji State’s of the world that are going around saying we [Penn State] will be the cause of the death of NCAA hockey…
I’m sure the BTHC will come about eventually, and it’ll have very little to do with what Penn State thinks about it. The other 5 programs will make that call, and we’ll just be the 6th team that’s along for the ride to make it a possibility. And then these small schools will either realize that they can still survive playing the Big Ten teams slightly less often, or they’ll realize their hockey program was never viable to begin with.
Gus, don't be a gooey chocolate chip cookie.
i just
don’t think Nebraska can add any sports at this time, so I agree with Mike’s answer. Maybe the other Big Ten teams who are playing hockey form a Big Ten Hockey conference, but I just don’t see them….. okay, Minnesota specifically, abandoning Mankato, Duluth, ST Cloud, North Dakota, etc etc. The screaming would be incredible.
Maybe Minnesota needs the money, though. Maybe that’d be a good move.

Not so fast my friend, Andy P skers94

If..
PSU and Nebraska had played in 1994, that soft, unremarkable, nothing special, PSU defense of PSU may very likely have received the same treatment that the Florida Gators and Steve Spurrier got one year later, if Frazier happens to be healthy and at the top of his game?
Remember the score.. 60 something and could have been worse. On an SEC defense much better, faster, more athletic than that kitty kat brigade defense of 94 PSU.
The Nebraska power game behind that offensive line would dismantle and leave seismic holes in that soft PSU defense. Then when Tom did decide to run the option.. How do you think Joe Pa and his DC would have decided to take their medicine? None of it good.. Frazier or Phillips?? How do you want it served??
94 PSU defense isn’t near good enough to play the Frazier and Phillips straight up. Not even close. Take one away and the other chews up that soft defense. All freaking day!
FYI.. I will take about any Florida SEC defense over that unremarkable, soft 94 PSU group anyday.

Tackling issues..
I guess that’s how a 5-5 Rutgers team totaled nearly 600 yards of total offense against the 94 PSU kitty kat brigade. Sort of like how 8 times during 94, the PSU defense gave up 20 or more points.
I don’t care the score, don’t care if Joe Pa pulled students out of the band. Rutgers!? in 94?? They were crap. Just tackle the guy that has the ball!
Something that the 94 PSU defense struggled terribly to do in the Big 10 and against Rutgers. Oh My God!
And you think they are going to have any sort of regular success tackling athletes like Frazier and Phillips after getting trucked by a Nebraska O line with a two deep that featured 9 O lineman that went on to the NFL!! Oh please!! ROFL!

You're a classless buffoon
So, what you’re implying is the talent of Frazier, ( a qb that by many goes down as the best collegiate qb of all time) had not a thing to do with Florida’s lack of success in tackling Frazier. Rolling my eyes at you.
You’re a complete classless loon to sit there and imply that the athletic ability of Frazier or Phillips had nothing to do with the difficulty Florida had in tackling those two athletes!
Gee… the speed, quickness, athletic ability of Frazier and Phillips, or the offensive line blocking for them had nothing to do with Florida getting owned.
Steve Spurrier said it himself after the Fiesta Bowl.
“Nebraska is just a lot better team than we were.”
“Frazier and Phillips are two very difficult athletes to tackle and we couldn’t do it.”
“In my 30+ years of playing and coaching in the SEC, that team is by far the best team I have ever seen.”
Ya’ think maybe if Frazier and Philips hadn’t been the elite athletes that they were that Florida and just about any other team has a great deal more success tackling them?
So, you think the difficulty Florida had in tackling these players was merely bad tackling by Florida and nothing to do with Florida having to tackle extremely talented athletes?? You dumb..
IN that case please explain nearly 600 yards of offense given up to a 5-5 POS Rutgers team in 94 by the 94 KItty Kat brigade.
FYI.. dummy. Rutgers had not an athlete in anyway comparable to Frazier or Phillips or 9 offensive lineman go on to the NFL.

Not one bit of credit for Frazier breaking tackles or making a defender miss him. Hey DOUCHEBAG! That’s what supremely talented athletes do when they have the ball in their hands! They some times break tackles and make someone miss! Dumb mother fucker!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGMJ77IZ1yk
Watch this video of same game.
1:14 LP gashes that defense on first series, isn’t touched until 15+ yards down field! Great offensive line play.
2:40 another run by LP through a huge hole, great O line play.
2:43-2:48 LP breaks down three Gator defenders, (breaks their ankles) and outruns them to the endzone! That happens when trying to tackle extremely talented athletes. either of which could have won a Heisman Trophy.
3:45 Frazier breaks another pair or two of Gator ankles! How do you expect the Gators or any team to tackle what they can’t touch?! How does that happen!? It’s called having to try to tackle an exceptional athlete. Sort of like the difference between the Gators trying to tackle you or tackle Frazier or LP.
94 PSU defense gives up 500+ yards to a PIECE OF SHIT RUTGERS team.
94 PSU gives up 400+ yards passing to a Oregon QB, that before the Rose Bowl had never passed for more than 200 yards.
Please tell me douchbag, who Rutgers had carrying the ball in 94 that in anyway compared to Frazier or Phillips.
The 94 PSU defense wasn’t trying to tackle those type of athletes now were they when they gave up those 500 yards to Rutgers!?
94 Rutgers had not one player at any skill position or in the O line that compared in any way, shape or form to 94 Nebraska! I guess explains the difference in record!
Tell me about the Rutgers athletes that allowed them to get 500+ yards and 20+ points on that 94 PSU defense!
At least Florida in 95 could say that they had trouble tackling in the Fiesta Bowl because they were playing a supremely talented team with a dominant offensive line leading an exceptionally talented rb and qb!
What was the 94 PSU defenses excuse for the 500+ total yards or 400+ passing yards to Rutgers and Oregon, respectively?

Superior athletes like Frazier and Phillips tend to make it more difficult for defenses to tackle them.
With the ball in their hands, great athletes often do make a defense look like they aren’t trying or in your words are “incompetent.”
Florida seemed to do just fine tackling through the SEC. Gosh, maybe the real issue was that Florida’s defense never had to try and tackle a QB or RB as talented as Frazier or Phillips, even in the mighty SEC!

94 Colorado/94 PSU offensive talent comparison
A little comparison and breakdown position by position:
1) Offensive lines; In 1994 Colorado and PSU both put multiple offensive lineman in the NFL for long term careers as starters. Both had All Conference selections among offensive lineman for their respective conference. Both were talented and deep. On Oct 29, 1994 the Colorado offensive line was dominated in the trenches by the Nebraska defensive line. Neither Colorado or PSU has a distinct advantage over the other in terms of offensive line talent. Advantage; Push
2) Running backs; Salaam and Carter. Both were very good to outstanding collegiate running backs. Either could have won the Heisman in 1994 and there really could be no argument. Both flopped after college. Advantage; Push
3) Tight Ends; Fauria and Brady were both very good college players and both played 13 years in the NFL. Advantage; Push
4) Wide Receivers; F. Scott and B. Engram for PSU and M. Westbrook and R. Carruth for 94 Colorado. Don’t tell me about Joe Jurevicius as he played very little; non-factor. Engram has had a nice NFL career as a wr, but nothing more than a slot type possession wr. Not a true #1 threat at wr. And neither was F. Scott as noted by his nearly non-existent NFL career. Carruth was a much faster version of Engram. If not for Carruth being in jail this position would swing very heavily to 94 Colorado. AS it is, 94 Colorado still gets the edge at the WR position, although only slightly. 94 Nebraska had more than enough NFL level d-backs to shut down Westbrook, Carruth, Anderson and Co. Advantage; 94 Colorado
5) Quarterback; Stewart and Collins. Both had very nice college careers followed by both having some good success in the NFL. Will swing to PSU since Collins had a more productive NFL career although really only as a journeyman, never mentioned as one of the more outstanding NFL qb’s. The mid 90’s Blackshirt defense killed pocket passing qb’s with no ability to move in the pocket or avoid the rush.
Here we have a pretty darn fair and realistic comparison of the 94 Colorado and PSU offenses based on talent. After all this talk from PSU fans about 94 Nebraska never having faced an offense in anyway similar to 94 PSu, this little comparison shows something very different.
In terms of talent it is a complete wash, a push, whatever you want to call it between the 94 Colorado and 94 PSU offenses, respectively.
It is what it is.
You're a sociopath.
You’re continuing to argue a hypothetical from nearly two decades ago.
Go to your doctor, ask for a prescription of Aripiprazole, take it to a pharmacist, and use as directed.
And admit to yourself that the 1994 Cornhuskers weren’t that good.
He can’t even look at the stats. Any person who thinks Rae Carruth is better than Freddie Scott (Perhaps in a prison cage fight?) is totally a sociopath.

Sociopathic behavior..

Stats...
I don’t need to look at Scott’s NFL stats, they were minimal to non-existent!
So, yeah Carruth even being incarcerated was a better wr than Scott. That much is obvious. Carruth had real wide receiver speed (4.3 ish), something that neither Scott or Engram possessed.
94 Colorado WR’s better than Engram and Scott
I was gonna say the stats of the two offense.
But I think I actually meant to say Penn State had better jailtime stats than both Nebraska and CU. By this, I mean Penn State players were less likely to murder people than anyone from Nebraska or Colorado.

More evidence...
that the 1994 Nebraska defense would have been more than up to the task to handle the 1994 PSU offense.
1994 Orange Bowl Nebraska VS FSU
With what many in the media were calling one of the greatest offenses of all-time, alas 94 PSU, 1993 Florida State manages a whopping 18 points against Nebraska. With that, they needed a clear fumble at the one yard line (recovered by NU) by FB William Floyd to even manage that 18 points!!
An FSU offense with a Heisman winner, multiple NFL RB’s and WR’s. FYI.. The Nebraska defense that realistically held that world beater FSU offense to 10-11 points brought nearly everyone back in 1994. Only difference is they were faster, deeper, and more determined than ever.
Some comparisons and interesting correlations among 1993 FSU and 1995 Florida.
During the regular seasons of 1993 and 1995 and leading up to the Orange Bowl and Fiesta Bowl all anyone heard was about how great the FSU and Florida offenses were. How they were unstoppable forces.
Then they played Nebraska..
These two “great offenses” couldn’t get 3 td’s on the board! They sure as hell beat the hell out of every other team.
Don’t tell me Florida scored 24. They got a meaningless KO rtn TD with about 7 minutes left in the game, down by 40, while walk-on’s were covering the kick for Nebraska.
1994 Nebraska have problems defending the 1994 PSU offense.. Rolling my eyes..
Call it hypothetical hypotheses… I call it denial. The evidence is there.
1994 Nebraka would have lost.
Face it.
It sucks you live in a terrible state and are a fan of a joke of a college/team.
PENN STATE OWNS YOU!
And, I like how you "write" for Bleacher Report then reply to your stories with a pseudonym.

Florida scored 24.
You clowns gave up 24 to FLORIDA! LOL!
The Nittany Lions would have kicked the asses of those candy cornhuskers. Heat up the barrel, that corn would have been COOKED!
Penn State having problems with 1994 Nebraska? Rolling my eyes. HAHA.
Nebraska loses by at least 17, probably 24. 17 if Joe puts in the walk-ons for kick coverage.
What part
of Florida scoring a TD on the Nebraska walk-on kickoff coverage unit, (with 7 mins left in game and NU up by 35+) while UF had first unit return team on the field is hard for you to understand?
Did Florida score 24 points against the first unit Nebraska Blackshirt’s defense? Sure didn’t now did they.
Yellow belly… Hmmm. PSU fans would know about being yellow bellied cowards now wouldn’t they.
Throwing bags/cans of urine and batteries from high in stands (nearly impossible to identify who threw it) onto opposing fans. You do understand yellow bellied cowardice now don’t you.

You say walk-on, I say WEAK TEAM.
Your team was weak. Admit it. It’s clear as fact. 24 points, man. 24 points is 24 points. Nebraska was OVER! RATED! OVER! RATED!
So now it’s cans of urine? This urban legend has taken on legs! JUST LIKE THE 1994 CANDYcornhuskers! All hype, no substance!
Penn State by 24. Final score 31-7. The 7 was from Penn State running out freshmen for the final defensive set. Sad to see a shutout lost, but FACTS show that Penn State wins.
Don’t cry too much.

Nebraska lost
That is a fact – they LOST to Florida State. Penn State beat Michigan, who lost to Wisconsin, who beat Iowa, who lost to Illinois, who lost to Penn State, who beat Oregon, who beat Washington, who lost to Oregon, who lost to Auburn, who beat Florida, who lost to Florida State. Nebraska is thus no better than Auburn last year. WHAT A JOKE.
Auburn only scored 28 points on Alabama in 2010. Penn State scored 34 COUNT THEM THIRTY FOUR points on Alabama in 1983. Think you beat us? WHAT A JOKE.

David Taylor is the truth. David Taylor beat Derek St. John. Derek St. John beat Ohio State’s wrestler. Ohio State beat Michigan in 1994. Michigan beat Notre Dame in 1994. Notre Dame lost to Nebraska by only 3 points. Penn State, A HEAVY UNDERDOG, beat Notre Dame by 3 points in 1990.
Nebraska is not even Notre Dame. I am drunk but I know I am right. Cannon I am right. I think that was on Cheap Seats. That show was stupid.
Rick Mirer played for that Notre Dame team .Rick Mirer COULD HAVE CRUSEHD NEBRASKA, NEBRASKA A HEAVY FAVORITE COULD ONLY DO WHAT A HEAVY UNDERDOG PENN STATE TEAM COULD DO BECAUSE they suck.

Yep
Nebraska surely did lose, but replays clearly showed FSU’s Floyd fumbled at the one, recovered by Nebraska.
Yet somehow officials ruled it a TD when Floyd lost the ball at the one and didn’t have the ball when he crossed the goal-line. The ball was on the freaking ground behind Floyd when he crossed the goal-line..
Took that for FSu to even put 18 on the board.
Should have been Nebraska 16 FSU 11 and the first of three straight NC’s.
Point is the Nebraska defense put the clamps of Ward and co, an offense that before the Orange Bowl was one of the greatest of All time! Sort of like what people said about 94 PSU and 95 Fl.
That is until they were shut down against Nebraska.
Over and over.. examples of Nebraska shutting down high powered offenses in 93, 94 and 95. Yet you dimwits think 94 PSU would be any different! Rolling my eyes!
Once again..
94 Colorado offense and 94 PSU offense comparison
1) RB’s; 94 CU’s Salaam = 94 PSU’s Carter
2) TE’s; 94 CU’s Fauria = 94 PSU’s Brady
3) O lines; 94 CU’s O line with multiple All Conf and Multiple NFL players = 94 PSU’s O line with the same All COnf and NFL players
4) WR’s; Westbrook, Carruth, Anderson > although just barely, 94 PSU’s Engram and Scott
5) Qb’s; 94 PSU Collins > not by much over 94 CU’s Stewart.
And PSU fans want the world to believe that the 94 Nebraska defense never faced an offense even close to 94 PSU in terms of talent or otherwise. Rolling my eyes.. The above FACTS show otherwise.
94 Colorado offensive line dominated by the Nebraska defensive line. Westbrook, Carruth, Fauria and Co made a complete non factor by a defense loaded with future NFL players in the two deep roster. Salaam got his 100+ but that’s what Heisman winners do. Nebraska completely took away the passing game with huge pressure on Stewart and coverage in the secondary. FYI… Stewart possessed the feet, that Collins did not, to try and at least move away from pressure or a pocket collapsing around him.
Those scrubs Engram and Scott, neither nothing more than a possession WR would have been blanketed all day long.
7 points! CU got bit by rabid wild dawg

Osborne's
record against mighty Joe Pa and PSU.
3-2
and we all know that that record could very easily be 4-1!
Of the 3 victories Osborne did have over mighty Joe Pa and PSU they came by an average score. err beat-down of 36-10!
And you think the 1994 Nebraska offense, with what was by far the best offensive line during the Osborne tenure, yes better than 1983, with what many say were, and still are, the best QB and RB to ever play each position respectively, at Nebraska, would have serious problems piling up yards and points on that 94 Kitty Kat brigade? Oh please! Rolling my eyes, rolling on the floor! Good humor!

1983 - 21-7? A beat-down?
Joe had the second string in for most of the second half. Your CANDYcornhuskers beat a bunch of almost-high school kids, one mascot, and I am pretty sure one guy in a wheel chair. Good job tackling him.
It should have been 3-2 Penn State, sweetcheeks CANDYcornhusker wheelbarrow dishwasher monkey. I know it’s hard to admit it to yourself.
STRIKE FOUR!
FOUL BALL!
But in slow pitch softball, which is what the soft CANDYcornhuskers of 1994 played all season, YOU’RE OUT!
LOL. 21-7. Hell, half the team had food poisoning from that damned newfangled Eat ’N Park on Atherton. Guys were laying all over the place. It was like Vietnam with a salad bar. Moaning. Teeth grinding. Those damned Jalepeno poppers gave everyone the poops.
Congratulations, your CANDYcornhuskers barely beat an ill team, puking on the sidelines, dehydrated, 21-7. A HEALTHY Penn State tea wins 62-21. And you’d have 21 when Joe calls off the DOGS, just like he did in 1994.
WHO LET THE DOGS SCORE 21? JOE DID JOE DID. But still would win.
WINNING. HOMERUN!
Dont forget that NEB's 8th and 9th games in 1994 were barely wins!
Nice QB! Oooo, poor baby, PLAY THROUGH THE INJURIES!
CANDYcornhuskers are weak and worthless! Penn State’s defense would have injured your starter, backup, third string, ball of yarn, and string cheese quarterbacks!
YOU’D BE NOTHING MORE THAN A CHICKEN WITHOUT A HEAD!!! HAHAHA. And like those, Nebraska would have been an effective running game at first, before it collapsed in a heap. Bock bock bock! Chickens! A-coodle-coodle-doo! Cak-a-cak-a-cak! NEBRASKA WOULD BE CHICKENS!
Penn State wins by 42. Easily. 49-7, with one TD scored by Nebraska in garbage time when the headless chicken somehow finds the end zone, not unlike a squirrel finding his own nuts.

17-6 over K-State? Haha, they’re no Kansas! Bill Self!!!!
13-3 over Oklahoma? Oklahoma’s biggest claim to fame is a play by the same name, which is a play about the state, but the play is not named because of the state, but because it’s the name of the play. ARLO GUTHRIE IS A HUGE PENN STATE FAN!!!!
1994 Nebraska. Beating joke teams, struggling often, getting lucky. Charlie McBride couldn’t coach a team of conga dogs, yet alone high school kids.
See those? McBride wouldn’t know where to start. He was a LOSER. A know-nothing. A buffoon. Good job holding Wyoming to THIRTY-TWO!!!!! Haha.

One of my favorite quotes ever

Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed.
play through injuries
13-0.. I guess they did that now didn’t they??
If Frazier plays all of 94 Nebraska the Nebraska offense is likely scoring right around 50 points or more a game just like the same offense did when Frazier played all of 95!
And with that Nebraska would have quite possibly had the most prolific scoring team in the country AND one of the top two defenses in the country.
94 PSU is only in this discussion because of unfortunate fate.
With Frazier in 94 Nebraska offense is challenging PSU for leading the country in scoring.
Could have been
NU scoring offense #1 or #2 with the # 2 defense in the country and PSU with a top offense and the kitty kat defense that ranked 70th
Their is a reason for the saying “DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS” morons!

13-0
every win, coming by 10 points or more other than the OB on Miami’s home field!!
A team playing 8 games without what many call one of the greatest collegiate players of all time AND 10 games without an 8-9 year NFL starter at FS! And they still win nearly every game by 10 points.
As I said, if Frazier plays in 194 no one comes within 17-21 points of this team. 1994 PSU would have largely been forgotten in the discussion of a Nebraska team that for two years sees no one come within 14 points. And that 14 point differential in 95 for Wash St is extremely misleading. Game wasn’t even as close as that score indicated. 35-7 with 6 mins left.

94 Nebraska averages
48 points a game in the 4 games that Frazier played the entire game, AND 31 points a game in the 8 games that Frazier did not play in. About what I thought.
Frazier in the game with Phillips is worth about 14-17 points.
Would have been the same in the other 8 if not for “unfortunate fate” intervening.
Frazier and Co would put something close to 40 or more on those scrub kitty kats.

Don't forget their offense.
They scored a whopping 13 against Oklahoma. A 6-6 Oklahoma team that gave up 31 to BYU. By the transitive property, BYU > Nebraska in 1994. Facts.

Go on the road with a 3rd string
Qb against a top 20 (KSU) and win.
Ain’t no way in hell that 94 PSU goes on the road to a top 20 team with a 3rd team QB and gets a win.
PSU likely loses to Mich, Illinois, and Indiana if they had to play a 3rd string QB! Don’t tell me shit about 17-6 at KSU!
Damn, should get extra credit for beating a top 20 team on the road while playing a 3rd straing qb. KSu knew the offense would consist of nothing more than Matt Turman turning and giving the ball to LP and they still got beat!
LP left, LP right, LP up the middle, screen to LP and KSU still losses by 11 at home!

PENN STATE 5-0.
Lucky wins by Nebraska. Momentum is everything. Nebraska had it, Penn State didn’t. Penn State plays with the same momentum it did, it wins all 5. But momentum wasn’t on its side. Too much friction. Mu values, man. Mu all over the place.
Tom Osborn was STRAIGHT LUCKY. He got lucky in 79, he got lucky in 83, and he barely got lucky in 80. Plus, he was a dirty coach and recruiter. Everyone knows it. It’s why he’ll never have as many wins as Joe. And why the people of Nebraska laugh at his name. He was a black eye to the University of Nebraska. Win but sacrifice better judgment, morals, and his brother, Able. Sinner. Straight sinner.
PENN STATE 5-0 if played today. WINNING.
Nebraska’s offensive line didn’t have Dave Rimington. Penn State’s offensive line had Jeff Hartings, Marco Rivera, some other poeple. Some other people who could have won at Nebrasak and murdered the Candy Corn Brigade like Rae Carruth.
Classless? Yes. But Penn State wins by 14 at least.

Nebraska had a defense?
HAHAHAHA.
A defense that HELD WYOMING!!! to THIRTY-TWO (that’s THREE TWO — 32!!!). The CANDYcornhuskers couldn’t hold what is a MOUNTAIN WEST-quality football team to THIRTY TWO! Ooooo, they bad, they bad, who dat, who dat, dat ain’t a word!!!!!!
WHY OMING? WHY NOT! Nebraska spots the scary Cowboys THIRTY TWO and then expects to hold dem dere LIONS to less than Seventy-four? Bullhockey!
PENN STATE 74, Nebraska 14. Nebraska gets 14 when Penn State takes its team off the field for two plays so they can celebrate with the fans to ACE OF BASE’s THE SIGN (And I swear, by the moon and the stars and the sky, Penn State would be #1 like Ace of Base and Nebraska two like All4One!!!!!)
Nebraska saw the SIGN! And it was a big fat L! NO WINS! ALL LOSSES! Nebraska goes home with its tails between its legs, and Penn State swings what looks like a tail (BUT IS NOT!!!) between its legs with SWAGGER! HIDE YO WIVES! HIDE YO DAUGHTERS! WHO HID MY DAMN REMOTE CONTROL???!?!?!??!
Did you know ACE OF BASE had three of the top ten songs in 1994? JUST LIKE PENN STATE WOULD DOMINATE the CANDYcornhuskers! What is all that she wants? POINTS BABY! And Penn State would have them, those CANDYcornhuskers WOULD NOT!!!!!!!
DON’T TURN AROUND!!!!! BAM!!!!! PENN STATE WITH ANOTHER SACK ON the CANDYcornhuskers!!!!!!!!!!!

Facts.
Wyoming
Oh no!! Hardly surprising that Nebraska came out flat in the first quarter after having ESPN and every other media outlet in Lincoln telling the team how big a loss Frazier was and how much they wold miss him. Hell, even Joe Tiller, Wyoming’s coach at the time said he expected Nebraska would be very flat (and they were) considering what that team had gone through the previous week. But after a flat first qtr 42-17 Nebraska. with a conservative offensive game plan considering it was Berringer’s first start at QB.

Watch what happen to the Wyoming QB at 1:53 of this video.. FYI.. Wyoming was down to their 3rd QB at end of game.
Lets see.. 32 points of Wyoming was clearly the exception to the rule for the Nebraska defense in 94, you dumbass. If that was the rule for Nebraska to give up 32 points, then, and only then, you might have a valid point worth debate. So, if Nebraska giving up 32 points on defense, wasn’t the rule for Nebraska, what was it?
An examination reveals that 6 of Nebraska opponents in 94 were held to single digits, 3 more were held to 17 or less!
What was the rule for the 94 PSu defense? Giving up huge yardage and 20+ points to 8 different teams!
by Andy P skers94 on Mar 26, 2011 2:45 PM EDT up reply actions
32 points is 32 points.
Just like they’d give up more than 32 to Penn State.
Cry about it, “dumbass”.

The above comment that states that
Nu and PSU were tied for total defense was caused by some sort of error in a server some where.
