Those days are long gone, even if Tom Osborne had not
retired. There is MUCH more parity in college football
than in the past. Do you miss the days when NU beat up
every team on the schedule by 50 points, except one,
and that was a loss to OU? I find parity much more
interesting.

Yes, we could actually lose on the road at Iowa State.
But then a Tom Osborne coached team did that. 
But that is only one game. I think none of the
remaining games are gimmes, even CU. Everyone seems to
be able get excited about playing NU.
