First Buffs.tv Pre-season poll
filed in Rankings on Aug.13, 2007
Well, it’s time again for us to start voting in the BlogPoll and you’ll see our votes below. Let me preface this poll by saying that I’m actually opposed to pre-season polls and don’t think anyone should vote for rankings until after the third or fourth game of the season. However, the BlogPoll starts with the pre-season and we have been asked to vote in all polls so I’ve taken a rough stab. Keep in mind that you’ll probably see this poll change drastically as the season gets started.

Oh my God! What a ludicrous hater! Here we go again with the laughable wisdom of Forrest Gampp…

I’m sure that my poll votes will have huge bearing on the season as well as the BCS this year, so I can see why you’re pissed off. You might as well cancel your planned trip to the National Championship game. Good lord, don’t you have better things to do than to troll the message boards of opposing teams and pipe up when you feel that Nebraska has been slighted? I could care less what Nebraska fans think of the Buffs and you shouldn’t care what we think of the Huskers. It’s like a disease with you people; you’re not satisfied with rooting for your own team, you feel that everyone else should as well.
FYI, I don’t think the Big XII North will be very good again this year, and I think (along with most of the Big XII writers) that Missouri is the best in that bunch. Therefore, Missouri gets ranked 21 and Nebraska is not ranked. If Nebraska plays well against their brutally tough schedule, they’ll get in. Then again, I may leave them out all season just to irritate you.

HaHaHa…Huskers aren’t worth your time typing them into your poles. Just piss him off and leave him off the whole season; although, I don’t think they’ll be able to get ranked. They are going to faulter to all the ranked teams like they did last year. Oh yeah, and we are going to spank them after turkey day.

Hey Buff Doody, you’re an idiot. The Huskers are ranked in every significant pre-season poll and for good reason. The talent level in this year’s Big Red is something that will stun many and once again utterly decimate the mighty Buffettes.

And Gampp, I’m slowly starting to like you, but please don’t forget we troll this message board because of your team and fans’ dismal reputation for hateful acts against the Husker nation year in and year out. I know you don’t want to hear it, but that doesn’t make it any less so. Hatefull pricks deserve all the grief they dish out, and we don’t dish out even a fraction of what the Buffs sow. But I will make you a deal… If the Buffs beat Nebraska this year I will voluntarily withdraw from posting on your site for 1 entire year. Ryno already owes me beer from last year and a promise of double or nothing for even more beer this year. Do you accept my more than generous offer?

I never said that I wanted you to go away; in fact, I find your myopia entertaining. I know you think you’re holding the flag for Husker Nation by “giving me grief”, but that only works if I care and I don’t. It all really comes off as whining because we disrespect your team. Anyway, I’m not going to get into a fight regarding the Huskers as I don’t really give a crap how they do this year except for when they’re playing the Buffs. While I won’t argue that we have some terrible fans who reflect poorly on the entire fan base, I think there’s a reason Husker fan is treated poorly on most Big XII North campuses (I know Missouri fans and K State fans are just as bad as CU fans). There were a lot of years where the Huskers would come in and kick the crap out of us. During those years, the “Greatest Fans in College Football” (as you all refer to yourselves) invaded our campus and acted like righteous pricks. No one could stand the smugness and once the Nebraska program started to falter, we all piled on. I’m not condoning some of the actions taken by some fans, especially anything that is illegal or damages person or property. But if you expect us to welcome you into town with open arms, you’re crazy. That’s why they call it a home field advantage.
