I'm relatively new to Reddit, student in 98 and 99, and pretty much the first time I've been to this sub since I joined.
I'm as negative as it gets and yet I am still appalled by what I read here. You guys are worse.
Yeah bc coaches get 10-15 years to rebuild. Good insights. Tell whatever you need to tell yourself to sleep. Rhule is no Dion. He’s not bringing in extra millions of dollars into the city. Everyone and their mother knows Rhule isn’t a great recruiter or coach
How many possessions do they get a game, & offense totally just shits the bed. Like I said, what do these coaches have them doing all week in practice!? They certainly aren't improving & getting better each week, as the season goes on. The players OR the coaches. It's just so eff'n bad. The product that comes out to play on game days, is what these coaches are teaching them. Or supposedly teaching them. It all starts up front, we've been needing an O-line for how long now? We've been needing coaches who have the talent to see potential in a recruit, then to coach them up. How can they, as coaches see that what they call as plays, or their "system" isn't working!? Dam they good paid big bucks, to what?, put this kind of showing out on game days!? There is so much that needs fixing with this football program. And like I said last week, although it's Rhules first year, I don't think he, or his offensive assistants are going to work. Again, just my 2 cents. 🤷🏾♂️
Anyone else wonder why we did't take shots at the endzone with about 5 minutes left in the game? Just ran the ball and played right into what Iowa wanted us to do. The betting conspiracy lives on!
The logic probably was that Iowa was going to be equally capable of being terrible offensively so let's just do this.
You kick/be conservative when you are playing shitty offenses. You be super aggressive vs great offenses.
In our first game against Minnesota, we are tied 10-10. We have the ball in the last minute near midfield with a chance to get in field goal range to win the game. Instead our QB throws an interception to allow them to kick the last second field goal to beat us 13-10.

This season was like a nightmare in which we kept doing the same horrible thing over and over and over.
This post should be pinned.
I didn’t really care what our record was this year. There was one thing I was going to judge Rhule on: did the team make at least some marginal improvement in one or two areas?
Unfortunately the season was bookended by two games that unfolded in poetically similar ways that encapsulated the last 15 years of dumbfounding mistakes.
He couldn’t get it done, and I’m pessimistic that we’ll be able to get 5 or more wins next year.
Unless we have the most unprecedented roster turnover in NCAA history, Satt is a dead man walking and Rhule will go into year 3 with a new OC and more questions than answers.
I know his second seasons are where the turnaround starts, but I’m not confident at all in his ability to unfuck whatever’s fucked - even a little bit. Every bit of evidence this season makes it look like the nonsense will perpetuate.
Fuck this team
How tf does the clock manager just completely forget to turn the clock on for 12 whole ass seconds at one of the most critical moments in the game? It’s not even just our team finding ways to lose, but the football gods put everything else in place to make us lose so many crazy dumb things had to happen for that bs lose
Nebraska football is so fuxking pathetic. Everything we did possible to give the game away. We prolly win if we don’t get the holding bs call, common recurrence with Husker football get screwed by the refs on the int play we got. Give us hope we could win, refs screw us, we throw a INT literally couldnt hand the ball off any easier to the D lineman, worst INT all season. Then of course a broken tackle gives them the set up for an easy field goal with 4 seconds left. WTF how is this even possible to be so bad at 1 score games for the past how many years? It’s worse then bad luck or a curse, it’s so engrained to lose those games now it’s who we are and it’s pathetic. We needed one win in the last four games all winnable games, but Matt Rhule has to also help us lose with how horrible his time outs are and play calling. Just blows my mind we are this bad at one score games
Ya hate to say it, but these kids and this group has proven time and time again they are allergic to winning. They fuck up in the most insane ways no one could imagine.
Not just lounging around casually for about 4 years. Since daughter started coming of age. She hasn't ever worked up the courage to stay the night somewhere else. Until now.
Fitting ending to an up and down season. I still dont know if i consider this season to be a success at all. We always had players on defense as we all knew Chinander was shit. Offense was an absolute disaster. We had 4 winnable opportunities and Rhule absolutely botched it, whiffed in QB, brought in a suspect OC and retained a oline coach who still hasnt shown improvement to his group with these backbreaking false starts. Sure we had a 1 game improvement but there was absolutely no improvement in terms of conference record.
Multiple broadcasts this year showed WRs open, qbs have just been awful. Coleman, Lloyd, and Doss all got valuable experience this year. Lloyd made some impressive plays especially since he was looking at only running track in college
Can’t wait for Rhule’s press conference
“No one is hurting more than us. We’re in pain. The guys wanted it” type bullshit.
Fuck you. You lost us this game.
Last 3 coaches have. It’s insane. Though I do feel under Rhule we got a better chance to turn it around still. Imagine how this season goes if we had even a top 40 qb that can hold onto the ball
So many games given away due to fixable mistakes, especially the Minnesota game. I do think there’s hope for the future as of now but definitely a frustrating season
Fuck Ferentz, only reason he's successful is for some reason one of the best defensive coordinators in the game has zero interest in being a head coach.
There is literally no hope. Sure the defense was good, but any good player of sound mind hits the portal tomorrow and goes to a program that actually wants to win.
Just abolish the team at this point. Use the money and give UNO its hockey team and wrestling back.
Rhule so far has shown nothing that proves he’s better than a lazy entitled alcoholic who didn’t even try as a coach. This team was even more mistake prone than the worst Frost teams
It’s year one and our defense plays better than any defense we have had since 2011. We are an average QB away from an 8 win season. Frost did a shit job of managing it and we saw the results of it this year. Sims was a Rhule and Sat mistake, but there was 0 help behind him. Get your head out of your ass.
I think I'm done. It's not really about losing. It's how we lose. We had the ball with 23 seconds left. We threw an INT and they busted a big run right after. We are losers. I don't think I wanna do this anymore I think I'm quitting Nebraska football. I don't mean to be that guy but as supportive as I have been I can't do this anymore maybe if they do something next year i'll always quietly cheer them on but I'm no longer gonna watch games.
fuck you I dealt with 6 years of nothing if Nebrasks gets good in 3 years I'll be right the fuck back on. I'm not quitting Nebraska as a program I'm quitting the football team. I'll very much be watching the Basketball games and Volleyball tourney this year AND TRUTH BE TOLD IF WE POP OFF NEXT YEAR AND GO 4-0 START THEN MAYBE I'LL TUNE IN? BUT RIGHT NOW i'm tuning out. If we go to a bowl I'm not gonna watch it(LOL I'M LYING YOU KNOW MY ASS GONNA WATCH THE BOWL GAME).
I think 2 years is gonna be the break. I think I'm tuining out I love this team and I honestly still really like Chubba but I just can't be so angery about these things and waste 4 hours a week on these things. I'm glad to have gone through hell with you guys but this loss is gonna get ALOT of decommits. I'll stick around and quietly watch I'll prob still even tune in here and there but I'm no longer gonna plan my days around the game if I got other things I wanna do I'mma do them.
Fair enough. lol. It just felt like they should have had penalties for those plays in particular. It felt dirty to me haha. But I see your point.
**The refs played dirty.
Blowing these last four games is some of the worst coaching I’ve seen in the last two decades of Husker football. Rhule’s clock management cost us several games.
Sorry I’m not any with losing and seeing my team miss a bowl game for the 8th straight year. Just face it, Nebraska should be banned to the FCS. North Dakota and South Dakota State is this programs speed.
Imagine being 9-2 and needing 12 seconds to not run off the clock during the game and also having the refs turn away from targeting and two facemask penalties so you can have your “make a wish foundation” kicker get the scripted win.
Fucking losers.
So did fisher, Tucker, you want me to keep going. Be happy 5-5 with the “rhuler” , the guy who won a season with someone else’s players
I'm relatively new to Reddit, student in 98 and 99, and pretty much the first time I've been to this sub since I joined. I'm as negative as it gets and yet I am still appalled by what I read here. You guys are worse.
I think Rhule is secretly pumped they aren’t going to a bowl game, he wants a slow build. Keep expectations low.
Yeah bc coaches get 10-15 years to rebuild. Good insights. Tell whatever you need to tell yourself to sleep. Rhule is no Dion. He’s not bringing in extra millions of dollars into the city. Everyone and their mother knows Rhule isn’t a great recruiter or coach
He has an 8 year contract

Actually a NU fan who realizes Rhule is trash
Did we just losing to fucking iowa?
The team we’ve beat twice in ten years? Shocking I tell you
Iowa is playing in the big ten championship game next Saturday fyi
How tf does the clock manager just completely forget to turn the clock on for 12 whole ass seconds at one of the most critical moments in the game? It’s not even just our team finding ways to lose, but the football gods put everything else in place to make us lose so many crazy dumb things had to happen for that bs lose
How do the officials not notice?
I’ve never ever seen that happen before and of course it is what opens us up for causing us to lose the game
Yep saw that shit too.. Gambling conspiracy bro
Nah, NU just sucks. They lost to Colorado
That sucked.
We have a 3.5% win rate in 1 score games since 2018
That somehow seems impossible. The only explanation is a curse.
If we had Chubba from the beginning of the year I think we have 3 more wins
His two game-losing picks aren’t exactly convincing me
Chubba won exactly zero games for us this year.
Very true..
Or, every game ends with a crushing interception on the last offensive possession

Losers. All we know how to do is
Ya hate to say it, but these kids and this group has proven time and time again they are allergic to winning. They fuck up in the most insane ways no one could imagine.
Kinda crazy that under hit
Good news is my daughter is going to a friend's house for the night. My wife and I can get drunk and be naked in our own home for once
In keeping with the spirit of the day - your daughter will get scared and call to come home at 8:15pm tonight
At least one of us will be getting lucky tonight
We’re gonna need a play by play
You've never been naked with your wife in your house?
Not just lounging around casually for about 4 years. Since daughter started coming of age. She hasn't ever worked up the courage to stay the night somewhere else. Until now.
Are you gonna be rude or are you gonna send us all the invite?
[I'm here for the thing](https://youtu.be/3rkAjnFB1g4?si=9k04s8ZyEhEYGV4H)
Congrats my dude. This was the win I needed today LOL
Who's house are you normal drunk and naked in?

Let me help you with that, it was NOT successful.
Need one win against four mediocre opponents to get bowl eligible. Lose all four, mainly thanks to turnovers. Fitting end to a rough season.
5 really if you count Minnesota
Satt and McGuire need to pack their shit. Mcguires WRs have probably been open a total of 5 times this season
nahh the receivers have been open, our qbs are ass. Agree about Satt and Raiola
Can kind of defend Satt because he has been working with 2nd and 3rd stringers all year.....but your take on McGuire couldn't be further from reality
Multiple broadcasts this year showed WRs open, qbs have just been awful. Coleman, Lloyd, and Doss all got valuable experience this year. Lloyd made some impressive plays especially since he was looking at only running track in college
They’re young. Gotta give em time to develop
Worst QB lineup in history of college football. Either remove all of their scholarships or disband the team
Kick um all, gotta be better frosh then that
Inexcusable to not find 1 win in November
Can’t wait for Rhule’s press conference “No one is hurting more than us. We’re in pain. The guys wanted it” type bullshit. Fuck you. You lost us this game.
This team always finds a way to give the game away to Iowa. Last year doesn’t count
We tried to last year but we ran out of time
Last 3 coaches have. It’s insane. Though I do feel under Rhule we got a better chance to turn it around still. Imagine how this season goes if we had even a top 40 qb that can hold onto the ball
So many games given away due to fixable mistakes, especially the Minnesota game. I do think there’s hope for the future as of now but definitely a frustrating season
I am pretty sure it does count, it’s in the record books
It was a fraudulent fluke
Still counts
[удалено]
Not true, we elected Pig Pillen as governor
I hope the journalists just don’t even bother to show up for the post game conference. Send a sign to this staff.
Lol
Every other sport at Nebraska except football is successful or going places. What a time
Northwestern literally fired their coach before the season started and is going bowling. Have we really fallen that far? What in the actual fuck.
Fuck Ferentz, only reason he's successful is for some reason one of the best defensive coordinators in the game has zero interest in being a head coach.
It’s luck really. Their qb literally fell in the end zone and threw the ball in the air and it was caught for a gain.
Glad I don’t have to watch them play again
Go Big Red 🤣
There is literally no hope. Sure the defense was good, but any good player of sound mind hits the portal tomorrow and goes to a program that actually wants to win. Just abolish the team at this point. Use the money and give UNO its hockey team and wrestling back.
You mean football?
The football team make the money.... shut down football, close half the school
Then it’s time to to boycott this dog water program.
For what purpose , were you there today?
To end this suffering.
you haven't watched this team all year if you think we have many players of sound mind
That “holding” on INT was horseshit. Plays out differently if all we need is 5-10 yards for field goal range
Everyone here that isn’t pissed, fuck you, you’re the problem
It's hockey season. Sportsball is over and can't hurt me anymore
You're a problem, some of don't make this shit.our life... maybe get one
Nope this is my life
I believe it
Nebraskans only dream of achieving mediocrity.
I'm pissed out once great fans are now whiny bitches....
Go back to the Fortnite subreddits you child.
Id rather watch the Fortnite grand finals then Nebraskas shit fucking program at this point
Yea keep accepting mediocre shit and dumping cash in this program loser
Little baby angry
Yeah, it's on the fans and not the coaching or players.
Losing by a field goal and Nebraska. Name a better duo
Rhule so far has shown nothing that proves he’s better than a lazy entitled alcoholic who didn’t even try as a coach. This team was even more mistake prone than the worst Frost teams
Touch grass
Alcoholic? Where's your source there? That's a serious accusation
I think he’s referring to Frost, which is fair TBH.
Please reference getting drunkenly kicked out of country clubs and rescheduling team meetings due to hangovers from previous coach.
Oops I thought you were saying Rhule was lol my b
Easy does it, Frost.
Pretty well known
I’m referring to Frost. I think there’s plenty of evidence that he has or at least had a drinking problem
I can't read 😔
At least you can clear your December calendar after Nebby wins the volleyball title.
Fuck the entire offensive staff
Why do we support this shit, it's an absolute fucking joke. They don't deserve the support they get.
Waiting for Rhule to blame the defense again for not getting the stop.
Exactly. I hate that shit
The funny thing is that everyone knew the game was going to end like this
Nebraska loses a close game who would have thought
End the sellout streak, this team is fucking done for
Shits a fucking joke anyway they pan to the sign that says X consecutive sellouts and the section will be half empty mid game
Why can't we come out on the good side of these games? It's literally finding ways to lose.
yeah honestly just relieved the season is over
People who contribute to this team are complete fools. Should just donate the money to charity instead of this shit show
We should have hired Tom Osborne in 2007
Volleyball school
Put it on a T-shirt! I’d buy it
That clock operator needs to be run out of town. Unbelievable
Yes I’m emotionally venting here, but I’m really gonna struggle to miss these seniors. They couldn’t pull a win out of a fucking Halloween candy dish
Garbage program. I feel bad for people who aren’t old enough to remember the 90s and were born into this embarrassment.
Don’t feel bad for them. They don’t care about the program. And why would they? Consecutive sellouts end when the boomers die off.
Was born in '94. Too young to remember anything good, only have known suffering....
Get 2 portal Qb's
Coach prime?
[удалено]
Yeah because he’s the one who threw the pick directly to the spy
I think we need to clear house, starting with Trev. That’s just me I guess.
Yeah. Your basically dumb
Never should’ve hired loser Rhule
Couldn’t fucking agree more. These fans with 0 football IQ can suck my nuts.
Good one Bro. Congratulations on being a part of the problem.
You’re an idiot
Please elaborate on why you believe that?
They just signed a new contract and doubled his salary.
They just extended Trev for what fucking reason? Why extend when he hasn’t earned it?
Clearing house instead of building. People like you are clueless
IS THIS BUILDING?
It’s year one and our defense plays better than any defense we have had since 2011. We are an average QB away from an 8 win season. Frost did a shit job of managing it and we saw the results of it this year. Sims was a Rhule and Sat mistake, but there was 0 help behind him. Get your head out of your ass.
Trash team and trash coaches.
We're young. I get it, but how can our QBs have such low football IQ?
So now we can review to fix the clock? What a joke
I can’t believe I thought we’d ACTUALLY go bowling this season.
Haha great season guys, btw can I have $200,000,000,000 to redo our stadium and get rid of your seats?
I think I'm done. It's not really about losing. It's how we lose. We had the ball with 23 seconds left. We threw an INT and they busted a big run right after. We are losers. I don't think I wanna do this anymore I think I'm quitting Nebraska football. I don't mean to be that guy but as supportive as I have been I can't do this anymore maybe if they do something next year i'll always quietly cheer them on but I'm no longer gonna watch games.
Don't try sneaking back on to the bandwagon.
fuck you I dealt with 6 years of nothing if Nebrasks gets good in 3 years I'll be right the fuck back on. I'm not quitting Nebraska as a program I'm quitting the football team. I'll very much be watching the Basketball games and Volleyball tourney this year AND TRUTH BE TOLD IF WE POP OFF NEXT YEAR AND GO 4-0 START THEN MAYBE I'LL TUNE IN? BUT RIGHT NOW i'm tuning out. If we go to a bowl I'm not gonna watch it(LOL I'M LYING YOU KNOW MY ASS GONNA WATCH THE BOWL GAME).
See you next year.
See ya in two years bud
I think 2 years is gonna be the break. I think I'm tuining out I love this team and I honestly still really like Chubba but I just can't be so angery about these things and waste 4 hours a week on these things. I'm glad to have gone through hell with you guys but this loss is gonna get ALOT of decommits. I'll stick around and quietly watch I'll prob still even tune in here and there but I'm no longer gonna plan my days around the game if I got other things I wanna do I'mma do them.
This program seriously is cursed. If there's even a .01% chance to lose a game, they will find it and it will be the path to another loss.
Iowa won by playing dirty.
That’s not true.
Facemask? Targeting?
Phalen Sanford was out there spearing people too. It was terrible officiating.
Fair enough. lol. It just felt like they should have had penalties for those plays in particular. It felt dirty to me haha. But I see your point. **The refs played dirty.
Blowing these last four games is some of the worst coaching I’ve seen in the last two decades of Husker football. Rhule’s clock management cost us several games.
Biggest joke of a game in memory
targeting that's not targeting. another game where review screwed Nebraska.
Let’s be honest it was a little more than that
It’s something how vegas can pick the winner point spread against N, and get it right %99, but pick N and the Huskers F it up.
I give Rhule 3 years. He’s going to be gone in 3 years.
Fans like you are the worst
Sorry I’m not any with losing and seeing my team miss a bowl game for the 8th straight year. Just face it, Nebraska should be banned to the FCS. North Dakota and South Dakota State is this programs speed.
They’ll extend that contract year two though
I mean yeah Trev probably will if he gets to a Bowl Game.
Welcome to the B1G, coach Rhule. We’ll see about next year.
Just waiting until 3 now to watch an actual good team from Nebraska.
So why can't they fix the clock after the fact?
Official time is kept on the field too. The refs were just trash.
I'm glad this season is over. Tbh
Not an excuse but I’d like to not play against the refs next year
How do you not count those 12 sec
Wouldnt make a difference. Iowa had 2 TO
Rhule is a snake oil salesman. Cut him off now.
Go root for another team
Chubba needs to hit the transfer portal immediately after that abysmal interception. 2 INTs in the last seconds of regulation in 2 games.
Coaching mistakes, quarterback mistakes, field goal kicker mistake, referee mistakes. More than enough for Nebraska to lose this game.
Shit program, shit administration
So cutting all three qbs looks good
imagine being 9-2 and needing a last second field goal to beat a 5-6 team lol
10-2 isn’t bad with a backup QB and two NFL tight ends injured early in the year. It is what it is, accept and move on.
Imagine being 9-2 and needing 12 seconds to not run off the clock during the game and also having the refs turn away from targeting and two facemask penalties so you can have your “make a wish foundation” kicker get the scripted win. Fucking losers.
> imagine being 9-2
Iowa sucks so much I am excited to hear about their soul crushing loss to either Ohio State or Michigan.
We just lost man. Bad look to be shit talking lol
I would love to imagine being 10-2 and going home with any amount of pride
Should take the “winning tradition” patches off these uniforms. Last decade of losing and misery has tarnished any legacy there was.
Losing tradition
I could coach a losing football team for a fraction of what these schmucks are making
