What a pompoused ass. How great was this offense when it only managed
to put up 34 points in 3 games against Oklahoma State (73rd ranked
scoring defense), Texas A&M (53rd ranked scoring defense) and Missouri
(31st ranked scoring defense)?
Only a fool would point out an anamoly such as Saturday's game and use
it as proof of greatness.
NOTE to Bill: NU fans don't care about how many yards your offense
generates - they care about wins and losses. Your 4-year record at
Nebraska is bad. Please leave immediately. Thanks!
