Larry Brown sounds as biased as the people who announce the game on any given network. Listen to the ABC people who call it and you can tell that they WANT Nebraska to lose. Yes, nebraska used to run the score up, and occasionally they would in fact pass the ball in the fourth- but with a fourth string quarterback who didn’t acutally play the position. I can remeber about five years ago when they trounced Baylor in Waco and they put a WR in as QB, had him throw the ball once, and it was a TD. So Larry, the next time you revel in a former powerhouse’s decline, remember, what goes around DOES come around. And i hope that YOU don’t bitch when nebraska scores over 100 next time they have the chance.

Hey Fan, your comment was as classless as your grammar was poor. When you learn how to read and write and communicate properly, you will probably learn that a douche is not a brand of mouthwash!!!

You guys who said Nebraska never passed to run up a score better check out how they went from 70 to 77 in the 4th quarter of the Arizona State game.

That last touchdown on a pass was the big reason they were eating bagels on their visit to Tempe the following season.

What goes around, comes around.

It does my heart good to hear Huskers fans
whine. The “classy” fans are even turning
on their own players now. It’s easy to be
classy when you’re beating everyone by 5
or 6 tds. Show some class now and stop
whining!

As a former KU student, I don’t think it’s so much that KU needed/wanted to run up the score on Nebraska as payback. It was more to send a message to KU’s own players and fans (and the poll voters) that this team was for real. Sure, scoring 62 on Louisiana State is great, but hanging 76 on a team with as much history as Nebraska – even in a down year – is a real statement that you’re a “real” football team finally.

Nebraska might have been running up the score back then if they did it passing with the 1st team in. Instead they ran the ball with the 3rd and 4th string in and would still plow down the field. Nebraska would try to run out the clock and score a TD. Sorry but you can’t start kneeling in the 3rd quarter.

Yes, Nebraska put some pretty big numbers on opponents back in the Osborne days.

But they didn’t do it the way someone like Spurrier did. Nebraska didn’t throw the ball. They ran the ball, with the second and third string running backs. I hated it when people got pissed that they put up like 90 points on Pacific. They ran the ball! They ran the clock out! As every other team does, they just happened to be exceptionally good at running. You’re just happy a team that used to bury low-quality teams is now a low-quality team.
