As the Nebraska football team gears up for the 2008 season, the media seems fixated on reliving the past.
If we could go one day without the print hacks, radio blabbermouths and the empty talking heads on TV trying to relive the disaster that was the 2007 season, we're pretty sure the media would be left with nothing more to say (which, when you think about it, doesn't seem like such a bad alternative).
The Nebraska football team is certainly over last year's 5-7 debacle and are moving forward with plans to have a successful season in 2008. And coach Bo Pelini is doing what he knows is best -- preparing for the future.
"As long as you focus on the process to get there and you have a vision of where you're going, then what happened in the past . . . that just becomes for the fans and the media to talk about. Because the players will forget it," Pelini said in a story in the Omaha World-Herald Tuesday.
He's certainly got his team thinking toward the future, a future where the sky is literally the limit for a team looking to recapture the swagger and dominance that made Nebraska football such a special entity for over four decades.
Players told the media Monday that Pelini has the entire team's attention and that last year is forgotten and it's time to get to work.
