Who ya got? part 2

Colorado @ Nebraska: I should have stated that if Dan Hawkins was the coach for the whole season, then CU would only win 3-4 games. Now they have 2 wins with an interim coach. I don't like CU. Never have, probably never will. However, after watching the wrong 5 minutes of Nebraska last week, I can't in good conscience root for the 'Huskers. Did you not see coach Bo Pelini losing his ever-lovin' mind? He was chewing out his injured star QB and somewhere along the line got his team a 15 yard penalty for unsportsmanlike production.
I'm wondering if there was a recruit sitting at home watching that who then turned to his parents and said, "Cross Lincoln off the list", aren't you? Pelini reminds me of a guy who hopes you haven't seen him on TV, playing up the polite guy angle and that he cares about your kid, and then turns into a monster the moment Jr. steps foot on campus.
Look, I'm all for yelling, as it does have its purpose in life, but what I saw, and then this lame apology, prove to me that this guy can't possibly represent the best of the state of Nebraska, not where Tom Osborne was the coach and is now the AD.
While CU will probably have its own coaching search to conduct (maybe after this game), part of me would like to see them win and become bowl eligible. That would make for a pretty nice story, and I'd read that one. Upset time! Can I get the points? Colorado.
