Euros are there to surf the net and drink with friends, given that they don't understand nor care about the sport on the field. You'd need internet and/or booze to watch cricket here.

Sunday 10am ESPN+ India v Pakistan in the Asia Cup.

Must watch TV.
 
After that "what was he thinking" onside kick call by Frost and the Nebraska loss, I'd sure hate to be the FCS team going to Lincoln this week.

Oh.

Wait ...

Everyone points at that play as THE play they lost from. That's not how they lost. They lost the entire game- there were more than enough chances for the D to stop NW's run game, but could not do it. And at the same time, there were plenty of chance to return the passing game that Nebraska started with- but they were not capable of doing that.

One play in the middle of the game is NOT the end.

The curious thing to me is how a winner at one school can't translate that to another. That really makes no sense to me that the background culture of Nebraska has not been changed.

But it took "game in doubt" to "momentum to NW'n" in one swoop.

Nebraska misses Tom Osborne and whatever magic he had.

Or is it Prop 48 limits hurt the Huskers.

Osborne left just as the limits came.

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.

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.

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.
