Callahan Gameday Adjustment: All-white uniforms help create a slimming effect after Turkey Day


Bob Cozy, pictured above, is the inspiration behind the Husker's white uniforms and the new "Box 1 Scheme" the Blackshirts will model their defense after. The new defense allows individual players to utilize cardboard boxes for the deflection of passes and the collection of pass interference flags that Cosgrove plans on tying together for his escape out of Lincoln.

CSTV.com recap
The Huskers decide to eat leftover turkey, rather then play Colorado in the second half.

Accountability: The Exit Interview


Today, like many Husker fans around the globe, I feel an excitement in the pit of my stomach. Sure we are playing Colorado and the passion for the rivalry get's me pumped. However, in the back of my mind I know how Bill is feeling about his job security...and it makes me feel better. Am I a sadist?

Maybe it's what he did to our program or maybe it's his overall attitude at press conferences, but as Bill possibly prepares to leave his mansion in Lincoln, you just kind of wonder if he ever realized what he was getting into as the Nebraska head coach.

Many say that he is just outspoken and a terribly nice guy, but when you coach for a team like Nebraska, shouldn't part of your job be public relations? Yes Bill...it's not weird that fans get upset when you allow 76 points in a game. Defense was a requirement on the team when we hired you. Watching the pre-game today on KETV in Omaha, I got to take in how a real Husker feels on the situation.

Jason Peter poured his heart and soul into our program, along with also almost ruining his life with drug addiction related back to his playing days and his constant need to excel. Jason co-hosted the pre-game show and brought up great points on Bill, especially his comments relating to his successes as the Nebraska head coach.

The biggest of which was commenting on how his "west coast system" is working, turning out and developing players such as Zach Taylor, Sam Keller and Joe Ganz? Bill also seems to have hung his hat lately on the fact "his" offense is ranked 18th nationally and 12th in passing offense. He seems to be searching...for what I have no idea.

Jason Peter reacted to these comments almost exactly the way I would have. Which leads to me to believe that I am not alone in the way I feel. Bill has NEVER stood up and taken blame for what he has done on his own shoulders. He has only passed blame onto assistant coaches and his players. If this great outspoken coach could have just stepped up a couple times and said "hey, this is my fault...I just didn't get us prepared for the game," maybe the fans would be more accepting of him.

We aren't stupid Bill. There have been coaches that have been fired for doing much less to our program, then what you have done (Frankie Solich). My whole point is we need to watch Bill's reaction today. He knows his job is over. The same situation arose at Oakland, when as the Raider's head coach, many people, including PLAYERS, accused him of "sabotaging" games. Be mindful of this as you watch us take on the Buffaloes, along with when Bill gives any post-game interviews or press conferences.

Win or lose, we have already hopefully done both. We have won the battle for our right to a new coach and we should be losing an overpaid coaching staff tomorrow.

KU is Unde...niably annoying.

If KU beats Missouri, I will hate to see the video this guy makes...

The answer is NO!

This is what we need!



See ya Bill. It is Colorado week...but that probably doesn't mean anything anymore. I am going to eat some buffalo burgers at Broncos.
