BREAKING: HuskerPedia Interview Eric Crouch…for the 1,394th time!

Question to HuskerPedia; What could you possibly find out about Eric Crouch that you don’t know already?

Please.

Let me know.

Did his business hit his Q3 goal?

How is the sub-prime lending effecting Crouch Recreation?

Hey Eric, remember that play against Oklahoma?

Ok. I’m done. Nebraska needs new stars. We need a friggin’ star. A Heisman contender. An All-American. Something. We need some "new history."  A campus hero. A Nebraska Cornhusker.

Not a Juco Husker. Where have you gone, Grant Wistrom?

We need badasses. Adam Carricker, Stewart Bradley, the Ruud’s were badasses hidden in Husker mediocrity. If they were around in the '90s, they’d be Trev Alberts and Grant Wistrom.

It’s easy to blame Husker PR, but the truth is that we have just been average recently (to say the least).

Huskers have a unique place in college football. And contrary to our belief, ESPN does not hate us. ESPN just reports on us proportionally to our relevance. In the '90s, we were all over ESPN.

Now, we can’t win a game.

But, the good thing about the 2008 Huskers is that we have plenty of chances to get that SATISFYING “W.”

We have plenty of chances. We really just need one upset. Let’s be honest, if the Huskers finish around .500 and win a bowl, that’s a decent season. Yes, there is talent, but there has been a four-year shitstorm named Bill Callahan.

This is a rebuilding project.

We are going to have bad losses. We are going to get dominated sometimes.

But, we are getting better all the time.

Come on, this team wasn’t ready for VT. We weren’t tested and we still have a "long way to go" to get better. I know that is coachspeak, but it’s true.

Nick Saban lost four out of his last six in Alabama, including to Louisiana-Monroe.  There will be bumps along the way.

But the VT game was not a bump in the road. It was a learning experience. It was a case of Virginia Tech beating us and not by much. But I will say VT is not a bad team. In fact, they are a potential Top 10 team.

You know what would be a successful season?

Ending the season beating Kansas, Kansas State, and Colorado.

That would be friggin’ sweet.
