The one streak that is still active is the Sellout Streak, which has been tattered in Storm Clouds in recent years. And, what is troubling is Nebraska is a sympathetic favorite as long as you don't hate them and they have done even less than Michigan or Penn State.
At this moment in Frost's Helm, he should have known where the I-Back is or he would have faced off with a bunch of impatient and ticked off boosters who'd be on the fence unless character improves. There are less pleasant things with character going to the junk heap, including the State's Self Esteem to the World and it hurts the Businesses that need Nebraska to be good to make money.
The golden rule is you don't look finished worse than some State Prides than you looked against Ohio State last September 28th. The Conference Hex is going on 21 Years and getting more hopeless and along that way, there have been at least 4 Chances to keep that hex from getting Real World-ized.
Reality Hurts and Nebraska is nowhere close to a Playoff Team. It would have gotten treasures and rematches had it been sooner, but, it would have taken away the character and the luster of the program. If I am eating off the Thanksgiving Turkey not just because I'd hate them, which is not new, it is a big problem.
