Did Frost actually say that or did the clickbait title just intimate it? We should all know by now that sometimes the press isn’t so good at turning out headlines.
Off the top I’d say two of the most surprising results are Nebraska and to a lesser degree Michigan. I would of thought both would rally to good seasons this year.
How many Nebraska fans saw last season coming? Then they follow that up and sit at 4 and 4. Nebraska was picked as the West leader by many. We dominated them!
Nebraska was picked as a Top Ten team by some, weren't they?
Maybe I'm imagining things. If so, I blame it on age.

One random dude picked them for that but really was a random one off.
At the BIG 10 Media Days in Chicago in late July, Nebraska was the favorite pick to win the West:
Wide open West: Who do you like in the Big Ten West? Nebraska is the trendy dark horse pick. Wisconsin is the once-dominant regular. Northwestern is the defending champion. Purdue beat Ohio State last season. It seems there are no wrong answers. Pat Fitzgerald's Wildcats have won 15 of their last 16 conference games. After going 8-1 in the conference last season, Iowa, Wisconsin and Purdue all tied at 5-4. Scott Frost seemingly has Nebraska poised after finishing strong. Wisconsin should bounce back with 2,000-yard rusher Jonathan Taylor and steady Paul Chryst. Kirk Ferentz is currently the game's longest-tenured coach. Whoever wins probably faces an uphill battle against the Big Ten East champion in the conference title game, but you already knew that. Forget Ohio State and Michigan on the other side of the bracket in any given year. In the history of the Big Ten title game, when the West team is favored, it is 1-3.
"No wrong answers"? Ha! I beg to differ.
Not even a mention for Minnesota... or Illinois, a team that is playing pretty well right now.
I seem to remember some pre-season polls that had Nebraska in the Top 25. In fact, weren't they ranked for the first couple of weeks?
Scott Frost is a colossal tool. Basically said in a news conference that he thought his players weren't 'tough' because they wore hoodies outside while warming up for the Minnesota game. Also said you got 'beat-up' in his day for doing that. He's a knob.
Yeah, it's some old school machismo bull**** that as far as I know doesn't have any real basis in reality for how it effects player performance in cold weather.
It isn't like them losing the hoodies help them keep that game close, we were always gonna crush them with how bad they were on the offensive and defensive lines.
Frost press conferences are rapidly looking like he is in over his head. He has provided a steady drumbeat of throwing his players under the bus and now this whole hoodie thing is really bizarre.
Not sure how he could have had the success he had at central Florida and now look overmatched at Nebraska. They had a great, but damning segment on him on the most recent Bigger Ten podcast. They compared him to Steve Alford at Iowa. Perhaps in the end Nebraska is paying him a lot of money for on the job training that will help him at a different job down the road.
Maybe he will pull things together at Nebraska. But maybe it will get worse.
Just a clickbait title. This is what he said. Also apparently several of our guys wore hoodies during warmups as well.
Agreed. My take on his success at UCF was he did some things right his own way. But, when he got to nebraska, he felt compelled to be this "old school Tom Osborne" type and completely change his style based on perception of what neb was 20/30 years ago. "We're going to be like the 80s and 90s". "Go lift weights fat a$$! Don't be weak"Yeah, it's some old school machismo bull**** that as far as I know doesn't have any real basis in reality for how it effects player performance in cold weather.
