usually, when the Huskers and Horns are mentioned in the same breath, it's a good thing

What will it take for Texas and Nebraska football to really be back?

For Texas, winning two consecutive Big 12 conference championships.  That might be a tall order, as the Horns have won one Big 12 championship since 2005, and that one was in 2009.  The issue seems to be on-field coaching, as they keep reeling in highly ranked recruiting classes.
For Nebraska, going to the B1G CCG three years in a row, and winning one of them.  To do that, the Huskers have to be able to stop the run.

When Texas beat UGA I think a lot of "us" figured they were "back".  Maybe not.  As noted above, you need to do something consistently over 2-3 years to be "back" at the level they were at back in the day, which is receding in the rear view of course.

Winning a bowl game is nice.

Losing 5 or 6 games per year isn't.

Sucking sucks.

Texas fans are used to a 9-4 season being a down year.  Or they were used to that.

Imagine Ohio State suddenly collapses and goes 4-8, 5-7, 8-5, 5-7 .... impossible really to imagine.  They'd be doing to coaching merry-go-round also.  

Your team is always one mediocre coach away from looming mediocrity.

I'm a good bit more north than you'll be, and it's a bit chilly this morning at 56. Don't worry though, we'll hit the mid-70s most of the afternoon.

Another perfect day here, just perfect.  Springs and falls here are usually perfect aside from occasional rain.

The wife enjoys the heat, so summer works, and winter of course is chilly but pretty mild, one can go out for a walk most days and even at night it's often not terrible.

I'm wondering why I stayed 38 years in Cincinnati.  I got used to it.

Yeah same here.  We've had a really really mild Spring so far.  Lots of highs in the upper 60s, a few into the 70s, and only one day in the 90s so far.  Normally I'd have to switch my runs to the morning, but so far afternoon is still working great.
