Just bet a steak dinner on Huskers finishing strong...

Met up with one of my colleagues who played for G-Pa at K-State late '90's/early '00's and bet him a nice steak dinner that:

The Huskers go 5-1 down the stretch and finish at 5-7, and with one of the toughest schedules in the country will receive a bowl bid somewhere (not sure we would except though).

And not an Applebee's type steak dinner, but likely a Ruth's Chris/Morton's type steak dinner (because that is how he rolls). So there you have it.

I'm all in...let the turn-around commence beginning 2:30PM this Saturday.

GBR!

You starting a go fund me account to help you pay for that?

I think 5-1 might be ambitious but I could believe 4-2. I hope you are right.

The difficulty of the schedule has no bearing on whether Nebraska goes bowling at 5-7. It’s based on the APR (academic progress report).

Nebraska is a ways down the list - we would need about six openings for 5-7 teams. In any case, bold bet. I hope your colleague is at least a cool to hang out with for an evening.

I like your optimism but I don't believe 5-7 teams can get bowl births anymore. I could be mistaken.
 
Maybe it was the beer talking but I figured "go big or go home". Its not all that crazy...I really do think this team can do it. They were every bit as good as a 5-1 CU team, would have beat Troy with A-Mart, should have beat Northwestern, who beat Mich St. in East Lansing, who beat Penn State in Happy Valley. This team really isn't that far off.

Hell, the more I think about it, the better that Sullivans steak is going to taste that I'm going to make that power puddie buy me...:Wink:

He's actually very cool. Prior to our prolonged "mediocrity", him and his teammates badge of honor (and they wore it that way) was that they went 2 and 2 against NU during his time in Manhattan.

So worst case you are picking up a tab for someone you’d hang out with anyway. Best case, free steak and Nebraska has its best finish to the regular season since 2010. I’ve made a lot worse wagers than that.

If the Huskers go 5-1 I’ll pay for a steak dinner for both of you.
