Show Notes

Andy and The Athletic's Nebraska Cornhuskers keyboard clicker Mitch Sherman reflect on Nebraska's 2001 loss to Colorado, and how the Buffaloes' triumph led to the Cornhuskers' precipitous, near-two-decade- long fall from grace. The guys chat about the early 2000's complexion of the Big 12 North, Nebraska's inability to adjust to Colorado's offensive scheme, and, how prior to clashing with the Buffs', Frank Solich's team was in a position to contend for a BCS National Title. Speaking of Solich, what ripple effects did his firing have on the program, and how did the loss to Colorado and Miami affect the team emotionally?
