[Husker] Just like the olddays(well at least OU is playing NU forthe confere nce championship!)

[Michael Petersen]

Any sarcasm was purely intentional. :)

I believe that by throwing every trick play at any opponent at any time 
keeps upcoming defenses a little on edge and maybe a little distracted.

Just a little perturbed at all the negative comments after a good regular 
season....

I believe that winning your division does make you above average.... even 
good. There are 116 teams. I really believe we are above the # 58 level - 
average "C" level. I'm thinking B+ to A- or 89.5%
