Why don't we just onside every kick and go for it every 4th down while we're at it.

I actually hate the on-side kick calls. Too much down side risk. However, I would love to see us go for it on every occasion where it is 4th down and 5 yard or less -- regardless of field position.
I'm ready to jizz myself; I'm so excited about tomorrow's game. Go Cyclones!
Sooooo....
What happens when the other team has to use their backup QB and RB and you still lose????
I remember a few years ago when the Iowa QB was definitely out -- he wasn't but we did still knock him out of the game -- well actually he knocked himself out trying to make a tackle!!
This would be totally awesome if he can't play and ISU wins. I can just see the Huskers making excuses for the next 50 years about how they lost their last 2 games against us. Their excuse will go something like "but we were playing with our backup QB and playing on the road..." our response "yeah, just like us the year before when we beat you then too". HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA.
Yeah, I'm getting the cart before the horse but this would be so awesome its beyond belief.

FWIW --
Most Nebraska fans on message boards don't think it matters who trots out at QB. They still think they'll handle us convincingly because of some mysterious revenge factor over their failure to protect the football 8 times last year.

No, not really. Our defense is a sieve between the 20s. What does it matter if they move from the 25 to the 15 instead of the 45 to the 15? It doesn't. The upside is also much larger than the downside. We struggle at times to move the ball. If we have to move it 20 yards less, that is way better for us plus they don't have the ball. One more thing-I don't think we have lost one of these calls.
I don't mind them as long as they are not just trying to "surprise" them and they are based on something they saw on film. The UT onside kick was called because they noticed that the Texas players were not paying attention. Similar to how Wisconsin called the fake punt against Iowa.
Oh, so like last year when the Clones weren't at all close to full strength (without starting QB, RB, and many players suffering from H1N1) for the Fuskers game. I wouldn't think any excuses would be coming from Lincoln after that one. Not one Clone touched any of the Nebby players to cause the fumbles. Not a bit of modifications to the game plan were made by CPR and staff in the 2nd half to confuse Ratface's coaches.
Yeah can see where the strong No Excuses philosophy works for you and the Fuskers. I don't think I've ever heard you guys losing a game without excuses coming out.
I will go with this....
I think there are pics on the internet somewhere of the NU wrestling team doing just that. :yes:
I would like to know where he tailgates so I can hopefully avoid that area tomorrow.
The good news is that I'm sure there is still a Service Master truck hanging around from the Hilton flooding.
