What today's win means

I don't know for sure and my feelings don't mean anything- but if we lose today I feel like next week would have been a loss almost for sure. But with a win today, I feel that we may well get another next week. A team needs positive feedback, to keep working hard in practice, and prepare like they need to.

That team has to have left the field today feeling pretty darn good despite all the struggles.

I felt the same, needed a win or we were going to lose out. Optimistic now that we can win one more! Still replied changes need to come, though.

Thing about this win is we are 7-4 If and thats a big if we win in IOWA thats 8-4 we could end up 9-4 and no changes come and things stay statis quo.

Go Blue!!

Honestly, when the game ended, I felt that all the win meant was avoiding complete and utter disaster. Maybe this will help a little with next week, still not confident in that though. This is a bad football team.

UM is 7-3

The CRAZY thing is this: as god-awful as this team is, we SHOULD BE 9-1.

That PSU loss was a disaster, and we should've held off Nebraska. Better play-calling after Nebraska turnovers (and a defense that didn't fold on the last drive), and we win that game.

But hell, even if you say we got what we deserved against Nebraska, that PSU game should've been a W, and we're 8-2.

But it wasn't, and we're not. Don't start sounding like our former resident statistics expert!

No no no...I'm not trying to make excuses or anything of the sorts. It's just mind-boggling that as terrible as this team is, we could easily have just one loss.

I think that's more of a sign of just how shitty the B10 is these days more than anything.
