After the Nebraska debacle — a 3-49 FAU loss — The Displeased Schnell said he was going to take his team to “the woodshed.” Coach doesn’t kid around when he says such things.

The Fighting Owls are practicing every day during this off week. So, with apologies to Gold Hat, a character in “Treasure of Sierra Madre,” here’s a quote Schnell never uttered but should have, a few sentences that would warm the cockles of Rich Rodriguez’s maize and blue heart.

“NCAA twenty hour practice limit? We ain’t got no NCAA twenty hour practice limit. We don’t need no NCAA twenty hour practice limit. I don’t have to show you any stinking NCAA twenty hour practice limit.”

What Howard Schnellenberger did say is, “”Our offense, experienced as we have ever had, made too many mistakes. We will regroup and start over. We have more mistakes to correct.”
