This Nebraska-Iowa rivalry would be a good one to for both teams to start wearing their colored home jerseys, Red Vs Black. I see Arkansas-Missouri is doing the all-maroon Vs all-black.

Missouri up 38-35 on the Fightin' Fat BERTS with about 10 mins left in the 4th.

Don't know if there's been a bigger coaching bust of a hire in recent memory. Not since maybe Rodriguez to Michigan? Compare what those guys did at their previous stops to what they did at their new and it's shocking.

BERT won 3 B1G 'Chips at Wisconsin and went: 12-1, 9-4, 7-6, 10-3, 11-2, 11-3, 8-5.

Goes to Arkansas and goes: 3-9, 7-6, 8-5, 7-6, and he's staring at 4-8 in the face in year 5.

Really think his hire to Arkansas was the biggest bust hire since Rodriguez to Michigan.

I'd be all in for UW closing out versus UNL on Black Friday and moving Minny back to October, as was the long tradition. Minny and Iowa close out, which was also the long tradition.

The winner gets to wear all RED the following season.

Loser wears all white.

Winner is also granted the Big Red title.

Not a bad idea. Not a bad idea at all.

Miami used to have the same problem in the old Big East, where they would drop a November road game that they shouldn't, once the weather got cold up North.

BERT falls to 4-8 in what is his final season in Arkansas. He'll probably land a DC gig somewhere.

He left Wisconsin with delusions of grandeur talking about national titles and how the SEC gives him a better shot to get the player required to win one. He was probably feeling himself a little too much for the success Wisconsin had. He found out the hard way that it's a hell of a lot harder to build a great program than it is to inherit a great program.

The final 48-45 winning score for Missouri masks how badly Odom outcoached Bielema, especially as the game drew to its conclusion. Even with the help of multiple late drive penalties against Missouri, Bielema botched the clock management, declining penalties that would've anyway stopped the clock he was trying to save, and most egregiously, keeping Missouri from scoring a goal line TD with under a minute left when the Razorbacks only hope was to get the ball back and hope for a tying TD drive. As opposed to letting Missouri milk the clock and kick a FG with only 6 ticks left. Pretty much sums up the disappointment of the Bielema era at Arkansas.

SFU is beating UCF in the 4th. 

If that score holds, Nebraska can make their coaching change this evening.

That is the one biggest thing I resent about him. The way he went out, telling his players that he had a better chance to win an MNC in the SEC and then later back-tracking and saying he just meant he was talking about winning and SEC title. What Evar dood.

He forgot about Bama, LSU, Auburn, etc. Credit to him for taking on a HUGE challenge, but he was bound to fail and he clearly has.

Shame on him for dissing The Wisconsin Process and his loyal players.

As his hot wife once twittered...

And at the end of the day, UW is much better off with what they have now. So, it's all good in my world.
