Sorry to hear that guys!
Your other QB looked pretty sharp when he replaced Keller late in the game. And he's an option QB right?

I don't believe he's an option qb, but he is supposedly pretty mobile. We'll see if that adds a dimension to the offense.

saw this on the Huskerpedia board. Classic:

Mangino game strategy revealed

The KU coach, hungry for a win over the Huskers, has selected from his menu of options to cook up an offensive gameplan designed to put NU in a pickle. His team feasted on cupcakes during its non-conference schedule, but he knows there are no more creampuffs with only B12 teams left to play.

Look for a smorgasbord of plays to keep NU bottled up: The Jayhawks will first try to run it up the gut, using basic bread and butter plays that reduce the chance of turnovers. Mangino thinks his OL can pancake NU defenders who try to dig in and jam up the middle – with NU’s injury-depleted LB corps doing donuts around KU's fast, shake-and-bake RBs. If the running game doesn't work, he'll go the spread, roll out his QB to keep him from getting sandwiched, and throw deep to try to toast NU's DBs. KU’s wideouts aren’t butter-fingered; those guys can really catch the chalupa (as Jim Rose would say).

Mangino always finds a way to make lemonade out of lemons. Even if the Jayhawks lay an egg on offense, he’s confident his D can save their bacon. Stick a fork in NU if KU has a late lead, as Mangino will just milk the clock. He knows his team can have its cake and eat it, too, against a Cornhusker team that's turned to hash. (Can you imagine the sour grapes and rotten tomatoes from Jayhawk fans if KU loses? They’ll pepper him with negativity.)

Separating the wheat from the chaff, Mangino has done a great job beefing up his team’s talent level. His recruits definitely haven’t been chopped liver. Plus you have to admire his players' character – a no hot dogs on that team, or guys with big pieholes. He quickly takes care of any cheesy behavior with a tart comment or by getting in the offender’s grill.

Hopefully NU doesn’t get creamed Saturday.

I am sure we can manage to save some sort of face, they may be a bit motivated and pissed off after last week. And to be in the spoiler position may add to it.

Kid A · 11-02-2007, 12:43 AM

Nebraska is a huge underdog hoping to spoil KU's football season. Oh the irony. Equally ironic would be if callahan could pull this off and get his first top 10 win...against KU.

I'm not really looking forward to when your Cats come to Lincoln. This was supposed to be the year we showed Freeman what a mistake he made and beat him down in front of an angry crowd. It's looking like he knew what he was doing...even if he is still a prima donna

That would be great. I still think Cally should get another year but I doubt that happens.

Just curious, why do you think he deserves another year? In four seasons he's proved to be an average at best coach that on paper recruits well.

Northman · 11-03-2007, 01:47 PM

Looks like another rough day for Husker fans. Kansas working it.

theAPAOps5 · 11-03-2007, 02:11 PM

Irv and Joe were talking to yesterday about what happens with Nebraska. Saying its pretty clear Calahan is pretty much out the door. So if they get a bowl game do they go and is he the coach at that point?

If they get a bowl game you have to go because even though the season didn't pan out these players are kids and worked their ass off. But does Calahan coach them and his it pretty certain he is out?

Northman · 11-03-2007, 02:32 PM

I think Kansas is going to hang 70 or more points on Braska. 48 by halftime?

BMF Bronco · 11-03-2007, 02:39 PM

DBroncos4life · 11-03-2007, 03:12 PM

atleast Purify and Lucky are good. The game isn't over but if we can't play some D we are F'd.

bpc · 11-03-2007, 03:17 PM

Wow... 8 minutes left to go in the 3rd and KU up 55-31. I thought Nebraska had a shot at the upset.

Northman · 11-03-2007, 03:28 PM

Kansas is just downright rolling. I just saw some highlights and the Braska D is invisible out there. ouch.

Hercules Rockefeller · 11-03-2007, 03:28 PM

62 now, with Kansas just recovering a fumble in Nebraska territory.

ColoradoBuff · 11-03-2007, 03:35 PM

WOW.....are they enough playing any defense in this game? Unbelievable!!

ColoradoBuff · 11-03-2007, 03:37 PM

69 points and the 4th quarter hasn't even started........that noise you just heard in Nebraska is the door closing on Callahan coaching career at NU. Kansas is scoring at will!

ColoradoBuff · 11-03-2007, 03:39 PM

They need to have a 45 point mercy rule.....ouch!

TexanBob · 11-03-2007, 03:43 PM

I think Kansas is getting payback for 30 years worth of 40-pt blowouts.

theAPAOps5 · 11-03-2007, 03:47 PM

Man 69 points that is embarrassing.

Northman · 11-03-2007, 03:51 PM

KU will be rising even more up my Top 25 poll. They look real good.

ColoradoBuff · 11-03-2007, 03:58 PM

76 points now......Huskernation has to be pissed. I would fire Callahan as soon as he walked back into the locker room. The guy is a JOKE!
