  1. From a volleyball standpoint are you happy to be in the big ten. This conference has way more depth top to bottom.
  2. Excellent pick up for you guys getting Darlington. Darlington is a solid QB and it looks like he'll be a very good asset to the Husker offense in the coming years.
  3. Which is what you will need to happen, unless the Huskers beat them in Ann Arbor which i don't see happening. Michigan OL is not that great, little depth at RB even if they have D.Green coming in, very few LBs with Jake Ryan out, no depth at QB if Garder gets hurt. Trust me, Michigan has its own problem in their kitchen. This doesn't mean they lose but Nebraska can easily win if they don't correct these problems.
  4. I must be in the minority, but I never thought the conference was all that bad. Was it great, no, but not that bad. The national percenption of the big 10 hinged basically on week 2 of the season. After Meechicken got killed by 'Bama, which I really expected, in week 1. The next week NU loses to UCLA, Wisky loses to the Beavers, and someone else loses to Utah St. I think. All those teams ended up being decent FB teams. Its just that it all happened at once. PSU lost to Ohio and UVA, Iowa lose to ISU and CMU, Illinois lost to LA Tech and Arizona State, Wisconsin beat Utah St. on a miss FG and nearly lost to N. Iowa, Indiana lost Tre Roberson = losing season.... Trust me, things were very bad last year.
  5. I believe Delany watered down the brand of the Big Ten being a Midwestern conference that prides itself academics, research, sports, and midwestern traditions. There is just something special about being in the Midwest and having associations with the Great Lakes states as you can go anywhere and be in contact with Big Ten alum from your school and others. However, going out east waters downs the brand and opens us up to a culture shock I'm not sure most of would be open to. I will admit, I don't favor the east coast bias and think we get enough with Penn State. Rutgers doesn't really bring anything to the conference except Jersey shore. Maryland brings basketball, soccer, lacrosse and crabcakes but that's tied in with an athletic department in debt and cutting sports programs. Its like they're looking to join just to solvent their needs for their ailing athletic programs. I may come across as brutal but I have a hard time opening up to people/teams and accepting new things but given my dislike for the east coast this isn't making things any easier. Its going to take time for me to accept change which is never easy. At least with Nebraska you guys fit in and brought: football, volleyball, baseball and more. In addition, you brought the nice fans ever, but Northwestern still has my heart as my second favorite team with Neb in third. As for Neb we have no buyer remorse. We're glad to have you. Do you miss Texas and Colorado?
  6. I just wanted to say even though you lost congrads on a successful first year for Miles and increasing your win total by 3 including a BTT win. It was very very brutal year in the conference and wins didn't come by easily. Even with the Huskers losing a lot of scorers from last year they still were able to have a competitive team. Miles is leading this team in the right direction and is doing so in baby step. Can't eat the entire candy bar so enjoy the litte bites of success this year, get his recruits in and I'm sure more success will follow. Go Big Red.
  7. Yeah you guys won on your court but Penn State swept us 3-0. I better not count my eggs before they hatch, we have to dispatch of ND first before we get a shot against Penn State. Lastly, I agree you do have to beat great teams to prove you are champions.
  8. Why would it be revenge to play K-State? Did they ruin a season for Nebraska? Congrads on the win!
  9. Best of luck, in your bracket... Hopefully you make it to the final four and beat Oregon. We got the death sentence and have to play Penn State.
  10. Really? Troll Sorry I haven't been back on Huskerboard in while but my apologizes are overdue. Please forgive me, I did not mean to troll your board nor was that my intention. The game wasn't aired on BTN and I had no access to it. One of the Husker fans told me about the game while it was in process on the ESPN board but I did not know the score while in progress or the final score. At the time, www.ohiostatebuckeyes.com didn't have game information. Again, I'm sorry if you thought my question came across in a troll manner.
  11. 10. Not watch sportcenter and put in a comedy movie.
  12. Damn that was better than any performance I ever saw by the band.
  13. O I heard about that... Yeah I heard the crowd was ANGRY and afterwards they started getting fired up and into the game... Warning, DO NOT mess with OSU Marching Band or their traditions. They take that serious, just as much as they do with football. A few fans said that messing with the band justified Meyer scoring the extra TD.
