Man, this is one of them games that has you envisioning the worst as the game progresses. Has you straight staring into the darkness and questioning everything in life.

If we lose - AT HOME?! - to Nebraska, how am I gonna face my friends? Am I ever going to be able to make love to my girl again without breaking down in tears? If we lose (at home!) to Nebraska, do my childrens’ futures even matter, anymore?

I mean, I think maybe we can meditate to the memories of the recent Michigan State, Ohio State, and Wisconsin wins to try and remember that chaos and unpredictable (unimaginable) things happen in league play, all the time - and that tonight is not entirely who we are.

Cuz damn.

This team is like a long time girlfriend/boyfriend or spouse who your heart is deeply committed to, but who just does stuff every once in a while that makes you be like “yo, who are you?”

A win is a win, but things sure can look ugly when shots aren't going down. This team has to figure out how to get consistent offense other than everyone shooting threes. Saturday is going to be tough, so hopefully we got the sub-par performance out of the way tonight.
