Why Texas Stomps a Mudhole In Nebraska

I cannot believe what I’ve been both reading and hearing from the various talking heads and speds out there in college football netdom since the Thanksgiving game against ATM. It’s all over the Internet, radio, and television that “Nebraska has more than a puncher’s chance going up against Texas this weekend.” Etc. Hell, you can find it on our own boards. The Sooner and ATM boards are begging for a Nebraska victory.

Have we learned nothing from watching this team perform over the past 2 years with McCoy at the helm of the offense and Muschamp at the helm of this defense? It doesn’t seem like it. Nevermind the conference chanting morons like Tim Brando and Gary Danielson. What have we seen each week with our own eyes?

To me, it’s pretty simple. Nebraska isn’t even in the same class as a program as we are. Frankly, I’m not sure they ever have been.

“CloseToJumping, Nebraska is one of the traditional powers of college football!?! They’re so rich in tradition that they make ATM jealous!”

Look, Nebraska’s ranking by some pundits and fanbases as a top 10 national program is built on surface level analysis of what they’re really about. They built a house of cards that stood for 40 years because of several very simple reasons.

1) They were allowed to take any moron with a pulse if the player could run, catch, tackle or throw. They built themselves into a power on the backs of a bunch of illiterates that teams in other conferences quite simply couldn’t admit. They were able to keep eligible the likes of Mike Rozier, an alcoholic mental patient; Irving Fryar, a wife-beating loudmouth; and Lawrence Philips, a functional retard with Thunder Collins-esque homicidal impulses. Nebraska was able for years to sign and enroll athletes as non-qualifiers. This gave them an amazing advantage against quality educational institutions in finer conferences than the Big 8 at a national level. When the Big 12 was founded, Texas required that the NQ/PQ players no longer be allowed to become enrolled for the 12 schools. This, along with moving the league offices to Dallas instead of Kansas City, was a concession we required. There was one dissenting vote on these matters – Nebraska. They hated us for the power play then, and they continue to hate us now. They like the power and prestige we bring to the conference though, given that the Conference USA or Mountain West wouldn’t be too appetizing if we did move on.

Typing earlier of Philips, think about just how patently corrupt that entire organization is using him as a microstudy of what they’re about under the guidance of St. Tom Osbourne. This is a guy that beat the absolute shit out of his girlfriend, literally, according to some reports. He then drags her by her hair down a flight of stairs and proceeds to beat her some more. Osborne bravely suspends his star running back for a few games against the likes of Iowa State and Missouri and then calmly reinstates this piece of shit just in time for the national title game. What a man.

2) Further thinking on Osborne, if you look at what Nebraska’s really about, it’s very easy to realize that this program’s entire success was built around the good fortune of having two excellent, if slightly evil, head coaches run things in successive fashion. That program never did a damned thing before Devaney and hasn’t done anything since Osbourne took his ball and went home after being run out of the Big 12 by Texas. Most programs don’t get to have one great coach follow another, ever. Nebraska benefited in ways only Miami can relate to and now they’re getting a taste of reality like the rest of us.

Hilariously, Nebraska failed to understand this and refused to give the coaches after Osborne the same kind of patience and time to develop their own brand of winning culture. Look at Frank Solich. This poor bastard leads his alma mater to a national title game matchup a few years after Osborne is gone. Two years later, they’re firing the guy. He’s now on the verge of greatness, leading Ohio to what looks like an amazing comeback story and a MAC conference title. And then there’s Bill Callahan. This guy was effectively run off because he was a bad combination of short and intelligent. These are things that do not mix well in the heartland. And guess what’s happening now? That’s right, Bo Pelini is winning with Bill Callahan’s players. It will be interesting to see how patient they are with ol’ Bo when he’s struggling with his own talent.

3) Then there’s Boyd Epley and the legendary Nebraska strength and conditioning program. This is a man that has been acclaimed and lauded more than any other S&C guy in history because of his innovations in the Nebraska program. What’s rarely discussed is what the actual innovations have been. This is a guy that has certainly done a tremendous job of observing what’s being done in the livestock growth hormone space and adapting it into the cattle Nebraska runs through their OL, DL, and LB units. Why someone who’s led the way in steroid and other PED usage in college athletics is praised instead of pursued, in ways that would make Victor Conte and Barry Bonds seem sympathetic, is beyond me.

4) Finally, and this can’t be stressed enough, the Nebraska County Scholarship program has given that school a competitive advantage in ways that are virtually immeasurable. Brothers Mackovicka, the Count Monte Cristo, and, I believe, Eric Crouch, were all beneficiaries of the NCSP. This is a program that has skirted the NCAA scholarship limits for decades and continues to produce benefits for the program. There should be a damned investigation.

“But CTJ, this game is not a given. Remember playing Colorado in Dallas in 2001?!?”

How could I forget that game? It is the only time in my life in which I’ve actually vomited without being sick or drunk. Unfortunately for Nebraska, there aren’t a lot of similarities between the two games beyond location.

This Texas team has proven that it’s capable of showing up each and every week with one thing on its mind – winning. That 2001 team was lucky to be in the game to begin with and they acted like it.

This Texas team is complete. It has an offense that can score against anyone. We have a QB who has proven himself perfectly content to be playing and producing when every single thing he’s worked for is on the line. This defense isn’t the paper tiger that the 2001 proved itself to be. There is not only talent across the board on the defense, but the DC is a genius. In addition to these positives, our special teams are also ridiculous, and I don’t mean “rough the punter, kill all momentum and ruin the comeback” ridiculous. I mean, really, our STs could be the best in all of CFB. They’re excellent at blocking kicks/punts and returning kicks/punts. ST tackling has been spotty, but a healthy Kenny “LP” Vaccaro and Antwan Cobbs should remedy a lot of that against Nebraska’s pedestrian return groups. This team was in junior high or just starting high school when that 2001 game was played. That game is meaningless to them, as it should be. We replaced Cow Reese for Will Muschamp during these 8 years also. That’s a bigger upgrade than moving from Omaha to Austin.

“Nebraska’s defense is the best we’ve seen all year!”

Nebraska’s defense is plenty good. Scipio gives a fine breakdown of it further down the threadlog and I generally agree with his takes. I don’t like their secondary as much, but it’s hard to discern what’s what back there against the 12 limpwrists that they’ve played. The very real truth is that this Nebraska defense has played one team worth a shit when it comes to throwing the ball – Texas Tech. They did ok against Tech’s backup, allowing around 250 yards while getting their heads beat in. Random Okie fan passing through might claim that OU is a solid passing team that Nebraska shut down, and I just suggest pointing at him and laughing. I haven’t seen a worse QB on the run than Landry Jones this season. Against Nebraska, he basically lived on the run and the Sooners were playing away from home, so they might as well have been playing against Honesty and Integrity, as the matchup was just as ugly for them.

Texas will have it’s hands full on offense against that Nebraska DL, but this is the kind of outing that wins Heismans for guys in McCoy’s spot and surely the staff knows that. If they’re moving him around and incorporating him into the running game, we should be fine. I am fairly certain that every skill position player on the Texas offense is faster than every single player on Nebraska’s “blackshirts”.

We had the worst offensive gameplan of the year against the best defense we’ll play – OU. That was our offensive nadir of the season and it wasn’t strictly a result of that defense. Regardless, there is no Travis Lewis or Keenan Clayton on the Nowledge roster. We won’t see anywhere on the field a DB talent comparable to Franks or Jackson. The OU DL matches the Nebraska DL on a player by player basis and has more depth.

“Wait! Did you not watch the ATM game, CloseToJumping?!? Our defense was completely exposed.”

This has been a rallying cry of talking heads from Friday forward. I’ll admit that I didn’t give ATM’s offense enough credit going into the game, but I find it absurd that they’re not getting any credit now. Johnson is going to be a legit badass next season and looked great against us. Fuller was, is, and will continue to be a highly regarded player. The same is true for Christine Michael. The ATM offense is very good and has a chance to be better next year with most players returning.

All of that considered, one thing was obvious and a number of us knew it going into the game and that point is basic – we’re weak at one of the Safety spots and a good offense can expose that particular weakness. With Aaron Williams not playing a ton and injured, we were forced to go one spot further down our rung and had to play both Gideon and Brewster for a chunk of the game. ATM took advantage, over, and over, and over again. On top of all of that, Chykie Brown pulled his usual bullshit and went to sleep on a few plays.

What does that mean in regard to Nebraska, however? More or less, nothing. Nebraska’s offense is an embarrassment to wet cement. It’s an effortless combination of sloth and monotony.

Prior to the season, HuskerLocker did us the favor of rating the OC’s within the Big 12. I remember reading it the morning it was posted and almost choking on my Chocolate Lucky Charms. There was hilarity throughout, but the high point was their ranking of the Nebraska OC at number 2, one spot above the pedestrian offensive strategist, Mike Leach. I came to BC later that evening and saw that Scipio had found it and deconstructed it here. Good times.

I fully expect Sergio Kindle to utilize the limp, lifeless body of the midget Rex Burkhead as a projectile weapon, hurled angrily at Zac Lee early in an effort to send a message. I’ve seen Nebraska this year against VT, ISU, KU, OU, and CU. I don’t know, maybe those aren’t the fairest games in which he should be judged. Perhaps I should have checked out his effort against ULaLa? In any event, in studying Zac Lee, the one important takeaway I’ve had is that for what he lacks in his ability to pass the ball effectively, he fails to make up for when it comes to leadership, composure, and doing anything with his legs. I think the guy should wear makeup on Saturday, because it’s going to make what we all witness look a little more tasteful. The game will become lopsided through the play of Lee alone. And Watson’s playcalling isn’t going to help anyone, unless said “anyone” enjoys further mocking HuskerLocker’s stoogery.

Roy Helu is the most recent in a long line of Nebraska tailbacks that you look at and say “He’s above average, but it doesn’t seem to matter… I wonder what he’ll wind up going to prison for?” Our defense has faced Rex Burkhead in every practice as Major Applewhite has been forced by Greg Davis to conjure the scout team spirit of Brett Robin. He’s also made of glass and will probably have to be airlifted due to a hamstring pull in the mid-first quarter.

I have been waiting for this defense to pitch a shutout all season and my read on it is that this will be the game. I’ll be knocked over by a feather if this defense gives up more than 250 yards outside of garbage time.

“So you like our odds, even up against Nebraska’s classy fanbase?”

Does anyone remember the story of the Nebraska fans that had their asses straight up beaten by some random Texas fan outside of the Alamodome in 1999? I remember thinking, “Oh, good, someone pulled up in their clowncar to embarrass our fanbase.” I followed the story a bit and then the photos of the poor Nebraska fans were released. I believe it was one Texas fan that three Nowledge triplets attempted to jump for a funnel cake just outside of the stadium. Each one was pushing 3 bills and one of these “victims” was seen openly weeping in the midst of the photo montage. I expect to see more of the same from Nebraska on Saturday, both on the field and around the stadium. There won’t be enough concessions for their womenfolk, much less the progeny of Boyd Epley, so it could get ugly.

No matter. We walk to the national title game. 37-0.

“Nebraska has more than a puncher’s chance going up against Texas this weekend.”

Has anybody said that? If so, they don’t know what a “puncher’s chance” is. Earnie Shavers was nowhere near as good a boxer as Muhammad Ali, but he had a tremendously strong punch. Fighting Ali, he had a .005% chance of landing a solid punch, but if he did by some chance, he could knock Ali straight out and immediately end the match. That’s a “puncher’s chance”. TAMU had a “puncher’s chance” against us. NU doesn’t. Texas had a “puncher’s chance” against NU in 1996.

The formula for a NU win involves an uninspired game plan, a flat team, and turnovers. In other words, Texas has to give them the game. If Texas plays well, Texas wins, no matter what NU does.

I of course realize that your typing of a mudhole post has no effect on the outcome of the game, but what is the record ATS for the mudholes over the years? I know in the A&M mudhole post you said we have only actually lost a few, but it does seem that a decent percentage of the mudhole games we do win are close games- you know, the exact opposite of mudholes.

stuckinmn-

The purpose of Mudhole Post is to get our fan base to stop squatting to pee, arrest Longhorn Fans’ endless self-analysis and self-criticism, and to offer an absolute and total denigration of the opponent in ways that they find the most deeply offensive. This is all done with total self-assurance and a lack of mealy-mouthed ass-covering as is the wont of most football analysis posts.

Its value is far beyond predictive value; it’s too important for that.

He also only brings out Mudhole Post for games that are potentially dangerous. There are no UTEP Mudhole Posts. Thus Mudhole Post, by its very nature, offers risk.

In closing, Mudhole Post is crucial for our psychic well-being, offers a crucial slap across the Longhorn collective’s face when they begin to mewl, and generally should not be questioned in any way.

I’ve noticed the media’s ridiculousness on the Nebraska issue as well. I can only attribute it to a delusional-groupthink-hope thing based on a desire to see a non-major BCS school in the title game and the inherent bias the media has against Texas. Whatever it is, it is making these reporters look like a bunch of idiots. They all, to a man, seem to think that Nebraska’s D will be “the answer.” They don’t take into account our offensive improvement and they don’t take into account our D against Nebraska’s O. And they especially don’t take into account the non-offensive scores we’ve gotten in the past.

Yea, we won 3 National Championships in 4 years because Tom Osborne had the foresight to make sure that we got the best no-star talent out of Cow Shit, Nebraska….and the only way we could do that was with county scholarships.

Hubris indeed. Look, your analysis of the present game is spot on, and it wouldn’t surprise me a bit if we lost 27-9, 34-7 or 30-0. And I hate Shawn Watson’s gameplans and overall strategy at least as much as you, believe me. Without better performance on the field, it’s difficult for me to really string together an effective comeback.

But as a Nebraska fan, I do feel compelled to point out that a lot of your factual assertions are just plan wrong. The one that most riles me is the continued nonsense spewed regarding Nebraska’s alleged “county scholarship program”, the Tsarist Blood Libel of the college football world. This myth has been dispelled time and again to no avail. I challenge you to find one bit of evidence supporting this point.

Yes, you took away the PQ from the Big 8 and hamstrung us; congratulations. Yes, Boyd Epley did wonderful new things with bull hormone, but he also pioneered the very idea of weight training back in the 1970s. We defeated the SEC champions 5 or 6 times in bowl games from 1982-2001, but apparently our program is garbage. Great.

Characterizing Tom Osborne as “slightly evil” is perhaps the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever read on this site. I know it’s said somewhat in jest, and I enjoy reading the articles here… but sometimes this subset of Fanaticus Longhornus confirms the worst stereotypes of UT fans bandied about by my A&M and LSU friends.

OldTimeHorn said:

December 3rd, 2009 at 10:02 am

Would one of the BC sages please shine some light on the following:

EyesOfTX: “But it was more than just lack of emotion, the problem was schematic as well. Texas came out with a soft defensive game plan that featured no more than 4 men rushing the passer, and more often just 3, with the LBs and secondary mostly attempting – and failing – to execute zone, something this program has seldom been able to do effectively.”

When I read that here on the 27th, I assumed Muschamp was taking advantage of the aTm game to add to the defensive repertory as part of his master plan.

Then I read that our usual scheme of man & pressure is precisely the way to avoid letting Johnson have a big day. Hmmm.

Then I read elsewhere that a heavy zone with backers and even DEs dropping into coverage is precisely the way to defeat Tebow, I guess by limiting his runs and making his passing conservative.

Any idea if we were using aTm to roadtest a scheme for FU? Thoughts?

@BEHorn

My point was that this ‘County Scholarship’ never existed. It would have been the largest single cheating scandal in the history of the NCAA. Don’t you think someone, somewhere, in the media might have picked up on it? Shit, CBS would have fucking parachuted Bernie Goldberg in if they thought it existed. It didn’t.

Did we juice? Duh. Did we recruit some thugs to get some speed in the 90′s? Have you been to Nebraska? We’ve had the NCAA all over our ass a few times investigating shit and the worst they came away with was some student’s selling their tickets…Jesus H, call the Feds.

And last time I checked, the Big Eight bailed your cheating Southwest Conference asses out of the fire. I mean, you guys come from the only conference to have had a member get the fucking death penalty in football. Cheating like that is some next level shit that probably only you and 32nd Degree Masons are allowed to know about.

One more thing. The only reason the vote on partial qualifiers, etc was 11-1 was that the rest of the Big 8 knew our position on those items. They would have given you their left nuts in a pickle jar to vote against whatever we wanted. 30 years of kicking ass gets you that sometimes.

Ah the old favorite…let’s explain to those nice simple people why that weren’t as good as they think they were. Most of us know the reality of those times…which makes our national championship runs that much more satisfying to us.

We also know how a well placed loss can set a program back more than just one game. The recipe: place one team, loaded with talent, add “heart” and “soul of our great state”, mix in a cup of “the national media doesn’t respect us” add a pinch of collective insecurity from past losses you should have one, and finally dump in one mediocre football opponent.

You guys better win this game. THIS is your must win game. You could of survived a B12 south loss this year, you will survive a loss to Florida. But to lose to a team with no offense, an overhyped defense from the Big WAC North…when your team “just doesn’t know the word quit”…you lose this game your collective psyche will be fucked for at least two years.

CloseToJumping said:

December 3rd, 2009 at 10:31 am

That is one way to look at things, I guess, Lawrence.

Another way to look at all of that would be the following:

1) The SWC had members repeatedly busted because Texas wasn’t cheating and was pointing all of this out. We carry no shame in regard to what the other pieces of shit in that conference did, whether it was ATM, SMU, TCU, or UH. The same is true for us tattling on OU repeatedly for their cheating as well.

2) You can attempt to assign the other Big 8 schools going against you because they didn’t like losing to you all you want, but the rest of them were smart enough to understand where their bread was about to buttered. Without Texas, this conference disintegrates and the programs outside of UT, ATM, OU and KU wind up in deep shit for varying reasons. Nebraska, particularly, will find itself in a tough spot when the conference disbands eventually. Your academics put you at odds with the Big 10, as does your general viewing audience. What is their upside in bringing you in? They allow a school with lower standards and lower numbers at a national level to begin challenging them for conference titles? Right.

Does anyone remember the story of the Nebraska fans that had their asses straight up beaten by some random Texas fan outside of the Alamodome in 1999? I remember thinking, “Oh, good, someone pulled up in their clowncar to embarrass our fanbase.” I followed the story a bit and then the photos of the poor Nebraska fans were released. I believe it was one Texas fan that three Nowledge triplets attempted to jump for a funnel cake just outside of the stadium.

Ha. Good memories. That random Texas fan is still a close friend and was sitting next to me at the game. The shit talking started in the stands in the second half by the Huskers once it was clear the game was over. Compounding the problem, we were all bunkered under a concrete awning in the corner of the endzone, suffocating from lack of oxygen and the drivel spewing out of Husker fans all around us after Major got carted off.

I don’t remember who threw the first punch, probably one of us and we had a big group of guys but it was basically my buddy and another dude pounding on fat corn for a solid two minutes. It ended quickly and we all dispersed in various directions. We laughed for days once it made the paper. Brutal game though.

I thought Colt was ready to go on senior night, that won’t be anything compared to what we see saturday.

Osborne’s a bright guy and seems like a decent person. However, hopefully Husker fans can grasp how it’s difficult for the rest of us to crown him as the King of Class when he spent the best portion of his coaching career immersed in and surrounded by some of the trashiest shit college football has ever witnessed.

I love it…LOVE IT…when a former Big 8 school like Nebraska talks about saving Texas by allowing them to join the conference.

As I said on another site, that’s like Ric Ocasek “allowing” Paulina Porizkova to marry him.

Tell me something, Spunky Jim – if Texas decided to bail on the Big XII, do you think there might be a few suitors lined up trying to get Texas to join? Hell, the Big East would volunteer to change their name to the Big Southwest, the Pac 10 would be happy to renew the courtship, and so on…

The state of Texas has 3 of the top 10, 4 of the top 15, and 6 of the 22 largest cities in the U.S, comprising some 7 million TV sets just in those cities, and there is no doubt who owns the lion’s share of those sets.

Add in a top flight academic university, the second largest endowment (behind only Harvard, I believe), the highest sports revenue in the nation, hellacious baseball, basketball, volleyball, swimming and diving and really every sport UT bothers to participate in…

yes, thank goodness for the gracious Big 8. What would Texas have done if not for their charity and mercy?

Larry Coker and Frank Solich took over great programs in their prime. Solich took Nebraska to a steady decline, was fired. Coker was soon after although he won a championship. Hell, Les could be next. Although the absence of historical achievment from that school might allow him to stick around longer.

Scip nailed the essence:

“Its value is far beyond prediction; it’s too important for that.

He also only brings out Mudhole Post for games that are potentially dangerous. There are no UTEP Mudhole Posts. Thus Mudhole Post, by its very nature, offers risk.

In closing, Mudhole Post is crucial for our psychic well-being, offers a crucial slap across the Longhorn collective’s face when they begin to mewl, and generally should not be questioned in any way.”

Osborne was a great coach and has generally been a good man as far as I can tell. I would not have taken the same action he did with Lawrence Phillips, but Osborne has done many more positive things to way offset that mistake.

I’ve also had great experiences with the Nebraska fans in my trips to Lincoln and do think they are much classier than most fan groups.
