They were skinny for a few days.  Then back to normal.  And now skinny again.

Basically on the Jessica Simpson diet.

And now I'm seeing the skinny embed...

yeah i still have it

While you're "playing poker" 

@308_Husker the whole thing started with me asking her if she knew i used to make nebraska videos and sh easked to see one

I remember your highlight video--it was really well done. 

That was the first game my wife and I attended together. She was blown away by the whole experience. Memorial Stadium, Lincoln, and the team really showed up for that game. Incredible atmosphere

A slew of commitments mean little to me until they are signed. I love it, but I'm not getting hopes up until LOI is in.

Yeah, if they can recruit like this with our poor/mediocre W-L, I would think it would get even better and easier with some winning, bowl games, titles etc.

Get in the Top 15 and then I’ll be impressed.  

@MLB 51 You could say that about a lot of coaches that have brought in talent. A HC #1 job is to recruit and hire great staff around them. He has done that along with winning a lot of game, and it makes him a great HC. 

@The Dude Don't sound like Michigan fans and make excuses. Long ago Nebraska put the resources in place in areas such as S&C, they were mentally and physically stronger than most teams they played at the time, and they took advantage of the rules that were in place. They simply invested in key areas which other schools weren't at the time. Other teams are doing the same things now and have surpassed what Nebraska built long ago. 

He's recruited at a clip similar to Osborne. That is, not as elite as you might think especially compared to Bama and others:

2011 - #10

2012 - #20

2013 - #15

2014 - #16

2015 - #9

2016 - #11

2017 - #16

2018 - #7

2019 - #10

@jaws it appears you've missed understood me.  I'm saying Nebraska had one the greatest dynasties in the history of the game despite having natural disadvantages that don't exist at places like Clemson and Alabama.   

It's kind of like an excuse, except the exact opposite. 

BRM needs a good 4-5 years to recruit the posters he really wants on this board.

Yeah, just too many ads.  Come to think of it, HB has a lot of ads too. 

look forward to your departure! 

Eight!

We'd be fools to not ride this strange torpedo all the way to the end. 

It's like that old saying, "In for a penny, in for two pennies."

I am grateful, and enjoying the win. Also, we looked pretty poor against a really poor team. 

What did Wisconsin think of that really poor team?

So, should we not have celebrated the Hail Mary? Because that was arguably more beneath us than this game was.

Northwestern got beat by two top 25 teams and Stanford. They kept it fairly close with each. We would probably get creamed in 2 of the 3. We need these kind of dirty wins, with a backup QB, to grow as a team. Not sure why it's embarrassing to go nuts over a walk off FG to win it... especially considering our struggles at kicker.

@Minnesota_husker we had people on here telling us the time and day that the announcement would come, and it was before any announcement of Gameday.

@Minnesota_husker I do agree that it seems a little odd that they don’t have anything interior yet.  But the story is they had circled this weekend this summer because of Ohio State.  GameDay was just a bonus.  I had seen reports of roughly this timeframe at least a month ago.

It was pretty cool at the NIU game with the red banner lights and everyone with their phone lights on. Maybe they'll turn off the field lights this week.

We could turn off all the lights and that would give us a chance to run away from The Ohio State

I would love it if they did this during the tunnel walk.

Did you even get a post in?

Maybe a first half team, not looking anything like the first half in the second half.

Ha! What'd he do this time?

Came back

I think he is still on my PM list.

Wonder how long the Owa thread is now??

Alright @VectorVictor 

@Landlord thanks! Your revolt looks awesome!

@Landlord I agree, I think you're spot on. It's more me just lamenting that he could be a really endearing individual if he tried. 

I've never really watched many of his press conferences so never really noticed before.  Interesting that it's the norm.

People hate Saban for the same reason they hate Tom Brady.  He wins a lot and they don't.

I'm not sure who's who in this pic, but the dude on the left is definitely gonna remove and sell the organs of the dude on the right.

I know sexual harrassment when I see it.

Not sure why I felt it necessary to make a face, but I did. 

I agree that hyper replays are ruining the game experience. There are a few faults with it imo.

1- They are wasting too much time in the process. There should be a much more limited window for them to review.

2- Some of the stuff they are reviewing is ridiculous. This is basically #1 complaint again but some of these pinky touches etc. need to be skipped.

3- People/Fans/Viewers need to once again accept that human error and referee imperfection is an integral part of the game.

I think a lot of this perception is driven by how the TV broadcast crew handles it. It probably wouldn’t seem near as bad if they just wouldn’t show 6 different angles at varying slo mo speeds down to frame by frame, talking constantly and bringing in “experts” etc. Just say it’s under review, go to commercial, and let us know the result when play resumes. I don’t need Dean Blandino or whoever in the F is back in New York to provide his hot take. Of course I was happy without a playoff in CFB too.....

I don't think there should be any replays ever and we should just, as adults, acknowledge bad calls are unavoidable and move past it.

@The Dude  I think having replay is a good thing, but in every sport there should be a limit and the coaches decide. 3 per half or whatever.

That’s basically a death sentence. Horrible, horrible cancer to have.

This is so sad.

This is Ken Jennings doing....

@GSG How many different types of renaissance fairs have you attended???

Only the finest!

@GSG and his friends:  

I wanted to eye roll this, but too funny to do so.

Be nice. 

I sentence you to 50 lashes with a spaghetti noodle to be administrated by Roxy

(and a free tasting of your latest meal)

Meh... I like how clean the white shoes are. White shoes and 3 black stripes would be a slick and classic look.

black is classic white is modern and flashy you are wrong zrod you should feel bad

Uh, wut? We picked white shoes in the 70s and 80s bro!

Ali rocked the white addidas and he was the GOAT!
