The list of potential Cobs this week is long and distinguished. Here’s your finalists for the dishonor.
Nominee #1 - The Nebraska Cornhuskers
I'm certain with nine wins there will be questions, but this is not a decision that was determined by wins and losses. It was a decision based on the overall direction of our program and where our program is headed in the next five years. I refuse to let the program gravitate to mediocrity. We're not going to relinquish the Big 12 Conference title to Oklahoma and Texas.
