      Or is it Prop 48 limits hurt the Huskers.

      Osborne left just as the limits came.
      With that momentum, an simple defensive stop would have kept the momentum. Didn't happen.

        Frank Solich had a .750 career winning percentage when they fired him. That started the downfall more than anything else, because what decent coach is going to see that and jump at the chance to be fired for only going 9-3 every year.

          Didn't Bo get fired on a 9 or 10-win season?

            Alabama would probably fire Saban for too many 9 win seasons. It's not unusual.

              9 or 10 wins all 7 years he was there, but the running joke was every year was a 4 loss year.

                  Somebody else but not Saban. He's god, now. He's bigger than the program, like Bear Byrant.

                  He either retires, dies in the saddle, or gets caught in the gears of some political fight at an even higher level which in Alabama is difficult to imagine. I'm pretty sure he'd win a direct confrontation with Dump.

                    He'd go 9-4 every year. Nothing deeper.

                      Oh. Long season, I get it. And he would go 9-3 and then lose the Rose Bowl every year.

                      Speaking of, what are the top teams up to now with playoffs? 15? 16?

                      Ivies still holding at 10, which is all that's keeping Cornell from losing double digits every season.

                        Yeah, but Bo got fired for off-the-field antics that bordered on scandal (he was allegedly banging a prominent donor's daughter, among other things). Solich was fired because he didn't win a national title in the 6 years on the job.

                          Gotcha. I didn't remember the scandal piece.

                            I thought Bo got fired because he was a psychopath who covered up for doctor friend who molested 600 students including his son. When his son told him what had happened, Bo punched him in the face.

                            He was a ****ing lunatic loser. Today he'd be a Dumpy.

                                That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
