  9. In the 2010 game against Texas A&M... Nebraska was penalized 16 times for 145 yards. Texas A&M had 2 penalties for 10 yards. http://www.espn.com/college-football/matchup?gameId=303240245 So glad we left that sh**hole conference.

  11. The no call fumble in the FSU 93 championship game. That game had 2 horrific calls - the before mentioned non-clip against us and the no call fumble that led to the FSU TD. All of those mentioned previously -- I'm chapped by them all. These aren't referee issues but they still chap me: Sooner Magic Another fumble - our fumble crossing the goal line against Texas - our only loss in 99 and which probably cost us a NC as I believe we would have beat either VT or FSU that year(which I would have loved that revenge for the 93 championship game). The tipped pass in the going for 2 moment in the 83 championship game. Anything related to Sooner Magic. The drop catch by WR in 2005 I believe in the loss to texas - we had the game won and our WR caught the ball and instead of going down tried to get more yards and fumbled- was it WR Nunn?? QB Lord throwing an interception into the end zone in I believe 2003 at end of the game when all we needed was a field goal Sooner Magic and Barry Switzer's face BC going for it 4th and a mile instead of punting towards the end of the 1st half (not end of game mind you) against Clemson in the bowl game. Having to play OU in the Orange bowl after beating them a few weeks before in 1978. This poured salt in the wound of being surprisingly beaten by Missouri the week after we beat OU. It cost us the NC. Then the Orange bowl does the rematch. How deflating is that. (Put in spite of sooner magic - I would love to have them in our division again) Outlawing the Fumbleruski Hiring MR and BC and 2 idiot ADs. Tommie Frazier not getting the Heisman Nat'l Press picking UF over NU in 95 Fiesta bowl NC game- boy did we prove them wrong. Michigan thinking they would have beat us in 97 and us having to share the title with them Anything Texas : already mentioned in other posts and anything they do in the future.

  14. Literally everything about Chase Daniel. I loathed that guy at Mizzou. He torched NU repeatedly and the fact that he's been able to hang around since '09 as a backup QB while attempting less than 100 passes, make tens of millions of dollars AND get a Super Bowl has ticked me off way more than it should. I've never met him but if I did, I would expect him to be a utter and complete d-bag.

  15. We've posted Trump news on sexual harrassment, affairs, etc in other threads where they get lost. This is a big issue. So therefore I thought I'd start one about Trump's abusive behavior but also his policies that might affect women differently then men. There are several things happening now - Stormy Daniels & Karen McDougal - the former playboy model suing him to name a couple So with that - I'll start with this post https://www.thewrap.com/former-playboy-model-karen-mcdougal-sues-break-silence-relationship-trump/ She ain't lying: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/lie-detector-test-shows-stormy-daniels-truthful-about-trump-affair-n858281 Fox gives Trump cover on Stormy Daniels. The article gives other graphs and a Hannity segment in which the guest was shut down after she brought up Daniels. And while I would expect CNN and MSNBC to air more stories due to their political lean, the fact remains all networks should be airing all of the information. The "Fair and Balanced" network fails big time in this regard as Fox seeks to protect Trump. Thus proving that they have become nothing more than a political mouth piece for the admin and a propaganda machine on its behalf and cannot be considered a reliable news source regardless of one's political position. https://www.vox.com/2018/3/21/17144180/fox-news-stormy-daniels-porn-trump

  16. We all know the biggies: John Ruud's hit, the out of bounds catch against Penn State in '82, the phantom clip in the '94 Orange Bowl. What are some "under the radar" plays throughout Husker history that still grind your gears? One for me has to be Kenny Bell's block in the B1G title game against Wisconsin. That should be on a how-to reel in terms of proper blocking technique.

  18. You are mis-remembering... The CB...forgot his name, was supposed to be in man coverage and instead played a short zone. It was O'Hanlon who ran down and caught the VT receiver, preventing a TD on that play. Yes the Hokies still ended up scoring on the next set of downs, but that's on the entire defense, not O'Hanlon alone. So what am I still salty about? Lots of great things have already been mentioned, however, what still galls me today is just how openly crooked Big 12 referees were. Steve Usacheck, Greg Burke...those two in particular were some of the most anti-Nebraska, crooked ass, mo-fos. They, and their crews, would go out of their way to penalize the Huskers. They'd flag Nebraska for the most ticky-tack things. The problem was, penalties they called against Nebraska were never called on any other team. Nebraska was practically guaranteed to get called for pass interference if our DB merely touched the receiver. If I recall, the screw job we received during the Texas A&M game was because we filed an official complaint against Greg Burke and his crooked crew.

  21. I feel like i'm taking crazy pills after reading your quoted part (didn't flow to this post)... like, didnt the team just go undefeated, and the previous S&C head guy got some national recognition, and nutrition was a big part of what the previous staff did? "Their bodies are changing" ... from undefeated form, to what, exactly?

  22. Tariffs targeting specific value added products make way more sense than tariffs on raw materials. But, to be successful, they need to be done in a way that doesn't piss off the rest of the world. For instance, when I have to raise prices, I don't go to our customers yelling at them and accusing them of ripping us off. I have zero faith in that this administration can accomplish that.

  32. What this whitehouse can't fathom, because they are a group of idiots jockeying for position to kiss the ass of president idiot is that: the relationship with Putin is acrimonious either way, because he views the US and NATO as enemies and is actively running operations to weaken us all. By doing things like congratulating him for his "re-election" you look like an ass kissing moronic puppet to the rest of our allies and it looks like you are endorsing Russian style "democracy." Including assassinating foreign exiles on British soil, meddling in the US and other NATO allies election, and disqualifying opponents from running in elections (who knows why when Putin's stuffing the ballot boxes anyways). Trumps view is bull, its the same crap republicans (rightly) crapped on Obama for with his "Russia reset". The reason leaders like Putin and Netanyahu hated Obama is because eventually he at least had the common sense to see when they were trying to pull the wool over his eyes (IMO). Trump doesn't have an ounce of that common sense and that's why these guys love him, they can show up with their "Strong Man" act and smile and tell Trump how great he is and Trump fawns all over them like a teenage kid with a crush.

  35. McKewon Article Essentially this: Beckton - Atlanta area, Orlando, north Florida near Jacksonville Chinander - Alabama, Iowa, Florida panhandle, Hawaii Fisher - Miami & Dade County, St. Louis Dewitt - The rest of south Florida besides Miami (Broward, Collier, Lee, Palm Beach counties), Wisconsin, Minneapolis, Garden City C.C. Ruud - Tampa, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, the Dakotas Austin - Houston Held - Junior Colleges, Kansas City, Dallas-Fort Worth, Kansas, Oklahoma, and wherever else Frost wants him Walters - California Verduzco - California Dawson - "just about everything north and east of Ohio" This is obviously a starting point and they'll go where the recruits are, but it's a general breakdown of their regions. I have to think Austin has more than one city to focus on though.

  38. If you want to average it out over all 130 players, I think the takeaway from those numbers should be that each player lost 3 lbs of fat and gained 3.35 lbs of lean muscle. In my mind that is a 6.35 lb improvement per player. And what’s it been, only about 2 months? I’d say that is rather significant considering the majority of these players are D1 college football athletes. And since it’s an average I would assume the more out of shape guys made greater improvement and those who were already in pretty good shape are likely dragging down the average. For the most part that kind of redistribution cannot be compared to some fat ass couch potato like me. Riley obviously didn’t have these guys in the best shape but they were still college athletes so a pretty far cry from slouches.

  39. I wonder if Trump citing Dershowitz as an actual legal defense on Twitter had anything to do with Toobin finally doing this. About time someone said something to Dershowitz, IMO. I thought he was supposed to be a Democrat, but all I've seen since Trump was elected was going on TV news to rail against the Russia investigation. I agree with Toobin that he's been carrying water for Trump, because every single time I've heard him on TV it's been the investigations into Trump. He calls himself a civil libertarian, which he claims gives him the credentials to criticize the law. But then I don't know what his prescription for this situation is. Basically don't investigate Trump or allow some half-assed, ham-fisted sham of a Congressional investigation suffice. Because that's all we're getting from this Congress. Waiting out 8 years of a Trump presidency may be fine for Dersh as a wealthy white male, but the rest of us can't afford that type of damage to the U.S.

  40. I guess I didn't take him literally. If you asked him honestly, I don't believe he would say they fell apart 100% of the time when things went bad. He was being hyperbolic as people often are when they talk about these things. Regardless of his meaning, in general, BP mostly kept his cool and did a good job. He sometimes lost his composure (explosively, in some cases) and did a bad job. His teams mostly did a good job. They sometimes lost their composure (explosively, in some cases) and did a bad job. Or, to put it more simply, BP was an above average coach. His teams were above average. I think describing that as framework for 'taking a shot' at BP is a tad disingenuous.

  41. Wow....If that is true, did Jared break laws by doing this? I have no doubt that Trump knew he was going there to do this and probably sent him there himself. There has been a pretty good media blitz with MBS in the US building him up as some sort of liberating royal ruler that is bringing SA into the 21st century. Now, I fully support that if that's the case. But.....let's just say I don't trust this whole thing.
