They just wanted to have their Scott Frost Parade, which i find funny. They just have it wrote down in pen that it was a W. I don't think that was the case at all. Meh. I'm upset too just because I wanted to see my Zips play. The weather robbed us of 1 out of the 12 guaranteed times we get to see them play. It was also a big game too. I'm sure some Nebraska fans feel the same. Plus there is no guarantee they are going to make a bowl and we were one of their easier opponents that could help them get there, though i agree, it wasn't necessarily going to be a gimme W for them. Some of them saying we chickened out or something is just dumb. I hope it gets made up, unless we are playing for a MAC-C.

feetg10 Posted September 5, 2018 Report Share Posted September 5, 2018 Husker fans need to STFU about this game. I get it, they wanted to bust their collective nut over Scott Frost and they got blue balled. But don't blame Akron, Blame mother nature. Akron wasn't scared to play. They were eager to play. The turnaround for a Sunday game would have been terrible. Nebraska would have made the same decision if they were in our shoes. All the talk about Akron wanting to back out of the game is just a lame attempt by their athletic department to not pay us. Husker nation needs to move on. I know it's hard when Nebraska football is literally the only thing to do in the entire state, but they need to try. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipsoutsider Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Nebraska QB Martinez left the Colorado game with a leg injury. Back-up QB is a walk-on. Nebraska loses. https://www.sbnation.com/platform/amp/2018/9/8/17835930/nebraska-qb-adrian-martinez-injury-updates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZippyRulz Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) What might have been... But from their perspective, they were favored to beat us and with a game under their belt might have beaten Colorado to be 2-0 right now.

Balsy Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 Man we needed them to get to 5-6 to force this game in week 14. I still want this game because I want the Zips to drag home a Big-10 scalp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LZIp Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) L.O.L. Colorado has finished last place in their division 5 out of the past 6 years. I pray to god they need us for a 6th win in week 14. Their savior true freshman QB is already out. Cry baby Nebraska fans who want to talk smack about us deserve. Happy Frost homecoming.

Amen brother! Can't wait for the Zips to drag home a Nebraska carcass in Week 14. Too bad Nebraska won't be able to pull off 5-wins. Who in the hell are they going to beat on their remaining schedule? Purdue...Minnesota...Illinois...Troy? LOVE seeing those Crybaby Nebraska fans eat a piece of humble-pie...personally would love for us to serve them one as well.

They look like the same 4 win team they were last year just with a new coach. Frost may turn things around, but this is not the 1980's and they are not in the Big 8 anymore.

Not if they don't need the win. I doubt they'd agree to play us/pay-us to beat them (which at this point looks possible in their eyes).
