No? My first day at NU, in fall 1980, the Cats lost like 17-10 to Mich.

Today. Negative rushing yards. 100 yards offense. Mich more than 400. And this is a mediocre Mich team.
 
Team quit today.

And I say that as somebody that thinks we have a small chance to beat Illinois next week. But that entirely depends on the team showing up to play and not collapsing like this.

Hopefully it's just one game though...
 
Not sure what to think at this point. Your season is on the line and you just plain got your ass beat and didn't seem to care. I don't think this team deserves a bowl to be honest.

Don't worry they won't get one they'll get crushed next week as well
 
Of course not. A 4 win season would have been celebrated in the 80’s. Our expectations are a hell of a lot higher than they have been in the past. That is what makes the last 3 out of 4 years so f*ck*ng hard to deal with.

Exactly. Dark ages is absurd. We’ve won 5 bowl games since 2015 lol. If we win next week, unlikely but who knows, we’ll be 1 win under my 6-6 prediction/goal given how tough our schedule has been this year.

Watching the Vanderbilt LSU game what a difference. NU needs a QB and its not Lausch.
