Huskers Replace Defense With 10-Foot Fence

In a last-ditch effort to keep the opposing offenses from scoring, Huskers head coach Bo Pelini announced on Monday that another tactic will be used in place of a traditional defense. Pelini said that a 15-foot fence will be constructed to take the place of the defense.

“Well, as you can see from our first five games, our defense isn’t quite on their game,” Pelini said at the weekly Monday press conference. “Our solution is an actual fence. We will set it up at midfield when we are on defense, and we will take it back to the sidelines when we’re on offense. Simple as that.”

Pelini went on to say that that fence has a better chance of stopping the opponents from scoring than the current defense. This surely is one solution to the problems exposed in the first few games.

“I’d rather we take our chances with them climbing that thing than face our defense,” Pelini continued. “If I feel our defense is ready to play, I’ll sub the fence out for eleven guys. Simple as that. I just wish there was a similar strategy available for the offense.”

No, he's only an embarrassment to you. I've read where lot of fans disragee COMPLETELY on that issue. I see it this way. If he is such an EMBARRASSMENT to you. Then why are you still choosing to watch NU football? The TRUTH of the matter is, NOBODY upon NOBODY is forcing you to watch NU fb as Bo as HC. So, . if you choose to watch NU fb , while he is the HC. Then honestly, you have no room for complaints. Like the old saying goes If you don't like what's on, then change the channel. But instead we read rants and complaints ALL season long. When all YOU have to do is, change the channel and stay home. Because your rants, and everybody else's, about Bo's side line behavior is NOT going to change NU and our AD Osbourne's decision, or feelings about how Bo is running the system. So in short, NOTHING is going to change on that issue. So why even bring it up?? Alot of fans , like myself are tired of the whining about Bo on the side lines. That's not complaining, that's whining. Most importa
