    Could be an interesting development. I don't imagine that the Big 10 would be very happy.

    I don't think the Husker Nation bought in to the big Ten in order to witness the immoral fall of the Penn State dynasty, to be getting beat regularly by resurgent Big Ten also rans MSU and Wisconsin and then always steamrolled by the likes of Ohio State and Michigan.

    The Big Ten's recent improvements overall in terms of competitiveness proved to be a daunting task for the Huskers and I'm sure it has been frustrating.

    That said I used to diss the Big Ten years ago.... but man they have risen over the years and I do respect the level of football they play especially within conference and whenever Michigan plays UF.....grrrrr

    Both Penn State and Nebraska probably thought they could run roughshod over the Big Ten but that sure as hell didn't happen.

    We were broke going into the B1G...but all fans will tell you we are happier now than the B12 years. Glad this post has died.
