Losing two straight to Minnesota at the end of Bo’s tenure was the final straw for me with him and a true sign of the program’s ceiling with him at the helm.
December 20, 2002 (Pederson hired)
November 30, 2003 (Solich fired)
October 4 2012 (Eichorst hired)
December 4, 2014 (Riley hired)
Kind of a tossup between those 4 dates.

yup
The 01 CU game was probably the worst. However I attended that TAMU game in college station, it still sticks in my crawl
01 CU was the beginning of a long line of lows.
Losing at home to S Miss under Callahan was unbelievably ridiculously stupid. Could have run the ball up the middle on every offensive snap and won the game, but Billy insisted on throwing the ball when everyone in the stadium knew another interception was coming. That was agonizing to watch. It was like a 3 year old got on the NCAA football video game and played as Nebraska.
TTech was awful, so was the Kansas beatdown.
There have been so many terrible things to happen to Husker football over the last 18 years
I need to be done thinking about this thread

You guys are depressing me why did I even start this thread?
Yup. 70-10 is forever burned onto my retina.
Good question.
Remember when the only doubt on Saturdays was how many TDs we would win by? Im sure glad my parents had me when they did and didnt wait a few years because I'd be too young to remember championship football.
The lows kept coming, sometimes with increased frequency and often deeper each time... the loss to Illinois was probably the most egregious and unnecessary. Some of those games we simply were not the best team on the field and things got rolling and we got our butts kicked. The coaches just put kick me signs on our players backs. The Illinois game was all but won and Langsdork calls a goofy play that allowed his QB to make a dumb but instinctive decision.

Had they passed a bucket to collect a buyout for BC that day, $20 apiece from everyone in the stadium would have done it.
We more than almost had that one. Odds of winning had to be 99.9%, at the point he had caught the ball, for the first down. Still can't believe the UT defender dove UNDER Nunn, to knock the ball out. He eschewed making the tackle, to gamble on forcing a fumble. It's as if he knew where the ball was GOING TO BE. It all happens so fast, it has to be instinctual.
You could also say that game was lost on the opening kickoff, where we gave up a LONG return, inside our own 10. Held UT to a FG, but had we had good coverage, outcome may have been different.
That game kind of was indicative of BC's strategy for bigger games...hang around, manage game, keep it close, and go for it in the 4th qtr.
The snow flurries in the 4th qtr that game was awesome.

We were at that game. AZ fans were total voids, surrounded by sphincters.
It felt GOOOOOOOOOOOD to kick their ever-loving arses back to tuscon or whatever rock they crawled out from.
I know it wasn’t post Osborne but the most crushed I have ever been as a Husker fan was 0-19 Arizona State in 96 I was 13 and literally thought Nebraska probably wouldn’t lose again in my lifetime
