Nebraska 56-Year Streak Broken: No NFL Draft Selections for First Time Since 1962

[Blackshirts BLVD]

Blo Pelini would have lost his shit, thus dragging the entire team down with him.

Mike Riley would have gone for a bike ride.

12 of the 14 B1G schools had players selected in the NFL draft.

How every conference fared in the NFL Draft

It's interesting to see the two B1G schools that didn't have any draft picks taken be Nebraska and Purdue, two West Division programs on the rise. I would hazard a guess that in the coming years, both Nebraska and Purdue will be producing plenty of NFL draft picks.

Was something "very wrong" for Oklahoma to have 3/4 seasons with losing records? Back to back 3 and 4 win seasons?

I mean they had "fallen so far" and all.

We can play this stupid game all day.

Hell yes something was very wrong for that team. You think they were fine?

 

[MAIZEandBLUE09]

Better hope the coach after hairball isnt a smilingmike. hairball = blowpeeni

Was this even English?

 

[OregonDucks]

The only other P5 school without an NFL drafted player? Oregon State.

LOL MIKE RILEY!!

No..

Pointing out that they had fallen similar to Nebraska, but they hadn't "fallen so far" that they couldn't turn it around with the right coach.

@Myles

Avy bet Nebraska wins at least 7 games this season.

You on?

@Myles

So no then?

If I'm not mistaken, I believe nine P5 schools did not have any players drafted last week... see the link in post #122 above.

No players drafted:
SEC: Tennessee
B1G: Nebraska, Purdue
PAC: Cal, Oregon State
ACC: Louisville, Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech
Big 12: Kansas

@Myles

So no then?

I need to check the schedule. 7 games isn't much to be proud of. How about 8.

 

[Churchillin]

Thanks Mike Riley. You managed to get Nebraska to Rock Bottom.

1st Round #20 overall pick.
Noah Fant, TE, Iowa
Omaha South High School.


Mike Riley told him he could have a scholly at Nebraska if he switched to DE. Fant wanted to play TE and Kirk Ferentz said "Come to Iowa and you can play TE, son". End of story, Fant to Iowa.

That is how much of an flaming idiot Mike Riley is.

I feel Nebraska was hasty in firing Riley. He deserved a few more years to see if his system could work. Maybe 5-10 more years.

Don’t go all Ferentz on us now.

Riley is a crappy version of Ferentz without the good season every few years. They all suck with Riley

I should have specified regular season.

8 with a bowl game?

They do have an easy schedule.
OOC
South Alabama
Northern Illinois
Colorado

Then they are set nicely with an easy conference schedule. No Penn State, Michigan or Michigan State.
Their 3 toughest games are all at home (Ohio State, Wisconsin and Iowa).

They are actually set up nicely for a 8-10 win season.
I just went through and I have them winning 8 games. I was tempted to give them a win for one of those home games (Ohio State, Wisc and Iowa), but I didn't. So I don't think I can take your bet with this schedule.

Wins:
South Alabama
Northern IL
Illinois
Northwestern
Minnesota
Indiana
Purdue
Maryland

Losses:
Colorado
Ohio State
Wisconsin
Iowa

I'm cool with 8 wins (regular season). That is actually the Vegas over/under anyway. I was just trying to milk one less win out of you. LOL

If Nebraska does not win 8 games or more in the regular season, I wear an avy of your choice for 1 week.

If Nebraska wins 8 games or more in the regular season, you wear an avy of my choice for 1 week.

Good?

I feel that I will lose this, but for the fun of it, I am game. Now I have to root against them.
