    LSU has a 0-1-5 record against Nebraska. Get this team on the schedule right now and let’s start evening up the score. They're basically the same as a cupcake team at this time so let’s take advantage of that!

    We missed our chance to even up the series in a hurry when Pelini was the HC of Nebraska.

    Pelini never had a season there with less than 9 Wins.

    You are correct. But the AD who fired him said that he ”hadn't won the games that mattered the most" against top-tier opponents and never won a conference title. But maybe getting caught on tape calling the AD “ a fucking lawyer who makes policies," a "total pussy" and a "total cunt." had a little bit to do with it.
    That prick got paid a $7.9 mil buyout from Neb. and a $4.0 mil buyout from LSU 6 yrs later.

    Valid point.

    Equally valid is scheduling former football powers and evening the series in LSU's favor. Nebraska is one. FSU (2 games scheduled) is another, and Texas (welcome to the jungle in 2025!) .

    It's time to feed on easy prey! Geaux Tigers! Beat FSU!

    The only downside to scheduling Nebraska now is they will probably have a much better HC and a much better team by the time we play them. I think Scott Frost is on life support and the plug could be pulled any day now! It just goes to show that even the best fan bases will eat their own if you don't win enough!

    Solich never really got the respect he deserved while he was there. Solid coach that Nebraska fans would take back in a second! Reminds me a lot of David Cutcliffe, another great coach that never really got the recognition he deserved.
