  1. Life, death, taxes, and uncontrolled hype for new S&C turning into skepticism and criticism in a short amount of time.

  2. C'mon can Nebraska please lock this up? I've got like 6 or 7 Omar from The Wire gifs all fired up and I'd like to use them. Please and thank you.

  3. What the university released to the public on weights and conditioning, the team improved across the board at speed, strength, weight, vert, quickness, and stamina. You could see it on the field. I personally believe we are just a “winning mentality” away from going 9-3/10-2 instead of 5-7. To me it’s mental, not physical

  4. I have been reading these posts for a while but do not comment because I normally do not want to get involved. But I do agree with the previous person that said that these statistics do not mean what you think they mean. I like Mccaffrey just as much as the next person, but CLT/SE/LLN aside, you cannot make the claims you are making from this sample. I am currently getting my PhD in statistics, do not feel like I have to prove that to you so you can believe it or not. I do not care what types of statistical summaries and tests you would like to conduct on this data. I hate arbitrary cutoffs for things like sample size, so whether or not you think this data meets the CLT criterion whatever. But, you can't just go using this data to make claims like what you did before..."Based on inferential statistical analysis, Luke won By a landslide this year (5% error allowed). " No, I don't believe it, and no one should for that matter. No matter what you believe, this was not a random and representative sample. Sure, its "random" in that they have different plays in different orders blah blah blah, but that is not what is meant by random sample. Was the sample of games that Mccaffrey played representative of all the times he could have been put into play... no, probably not. And this is all observational data anyways, so you cannot make large sweeping overarching claims about the comparison between the two quarterbacks, as much as we would like. So while sure, his numbers might be better based on some type of specific statistical test. However, you cannot use these tests to make these types of conclusions about the data.

  5. You think there’s someone out there that has a bench max of 300 that can throw up 225 faster than a guy with a 500 max? I’d be curious to see that.

  6. Yes I do because this team has done nothing to prove they are a winning team and this staff has not shown they can develop this team to make the leap to be a winning program after two years. We looked terrible in most aspects of the game last year as compared to two years ago. Special teams is going to be a major problem u til proven otherwise, WR as well, consistent OL play, terrible LB play with no depth this year. All those add up to having a 6-6 ceiling until proven otherwise. Would I say I enjoy being a Nebraska fan? Not lately but I will always be a fan.

  7. Being a Nebraska sports fan is just a cycle of getting beat by Iowa Football then Creighton Basketball. So much fun.

  8. It doesn't matter what the context is. When you suggest that she put herself in a bad position or didn't leave or whatever it's implying she shares some blame. The only thing that matters is she said she didn't want to do whatever. No other context or action matter.

  13. Schiff is a deep state politician trying to smear the other party. An obvious resistance ally at ATT handed over phone records in an attempt to harm Republicans. For comparison, ATT goes to court if the NSA wants the records of suspected terrorists.

  18. Maybe your question should be “why COULDN’T she leave when she felt threatened?” and “if she didn’t want to do anything how/why did the players get to that point?” There are fair questions to ask, but framing the questions without shifting blame does remain important.

  22. I guess this is the last episode in a crappy situation. Hard to say whether they are guilty of rape or not. It sounds like they are. But the girl's intentions are sort of sketchy as well. In any case these guys made incredibly poor, possibly criminal decisions. A few minutes of gratification cost them their Husker football careers. And probably any chance of getting a college education. These guys are just a couple of stupid thugs who let their dicks f#&% up their whole lives. And the life of some random college girl. Once again stupidity stymies potential. Buh bye losers.

  25. Yeah, because Trump abuses his power to target his political opponents like the rest of us breathe. Schiff is a professional doing his due diligence to investigate a bunch of clumsy, corrupt goons. Comparing the two reeks of desperation.

  28. It always cheers me up a bit to know that other people are suffering, and although some of these teams will go to bowl games, most of the fanbase thinks their college football legacy deserves better. Texas 7-5 All the money, recruiting advantages, coaching changes and arrogance, and the Longhorns still aren't back to relevance. TCU 5-7 They've had a damn good run the last few years, but look at that record-- no better than Nebraska! Florida State 6-6 One more win, but they've had some of the most embarrassing losses of any Division 1 team this year. Fired their second year head coach. May be trending back up. Miami 6-6 Warm weather, recruiting hotbed, football legacy, keeping most of their players out of prison these days, but still mired in mediocrity. Michigan State 6-6 Meh. Northwestern 3-9 They used to fight Nebraska for the upper reaches of the second tier of the Big 10, but they were just awful this year. Washington 7-5 Huskies fans expect more, especially in a weak Pac 12 Stanford 4-8 They've been tough, smart and in the hunt all decade. A power football team that vintage Huskers want to emulate. But the personnel ran out this year. It happens. UCLA 4-8 They've got every advantage we supposedly lack, and Scott Frost's more proven mentor at the helm, and they continue to troll the bottom of the Pac 12. Colorado 5-7 Do their fans expect more or deserve better? Don't know. Don't care. Tennessee 7-5 This record probably has the folks in Knoxville feeling optimistic, which shows just how far the Vols have fallen. Texas A&M 7-5 I've never considered A&M college football royalty, but their fans seem to disagree. LIke 6-6 Missouri, they look like they're fading down the backstretch of the SEC Arkansas 2-10 Believe it or not, Arkansas used to be a player. Or a spoiler. Or something. And Nebraska used to covet their coaches. They probably weren't as good as their 2-10 record suggests.

  31. The first 7 should be 7-0 at best, 5-2 absolute worst. But just because Cincy and Central Mich are in title games today doesn't mean they'll be great next year. But the last 5 games are a gauntlet. I'd say our best case scenario is 8-4 and I'm hoping for 6-6 honestly.

  34. Who was to blame last year for the defense being even worse than this year? The offense again, I don’t think so. The offense was way better and the defense still stunk. Now the offense stinks and that’s why our defense failed again? Wait...what?? New Flash!!!! Our D sucks because we can’t stop the run or rush the passer. Has nothing to do with offense. Nice try though.

  36. Well I think we all bought into the hype and assumed Frost could quickly turn around Nebraska as he did UCF. In hindsight UCF was in much better shape as they had three winning seasons out of the four before Frost got there in 2016...including a 2013 Fiesta Bowl win. The class signed after that Fiesta Bowl win would have been the upperclassmen Frost inherited when he arrived at UCF.

  37. If the police investigation is still ongoing, a 2.5 year ban from UNL might be least of concerns. I dont know how many times men need to be told "Just because she doesnt say no, doesnt mean she is providing consent" If she doesnt provide consent and you have sex with her, that is rape.

  38. I think all that is concentrated on is pure power lifting. Really bragging on how much weight a player can lift. How many power lifters are in pro/ college football? None because they can't move, no flexibility, slow. Hmmm...

  39. My list would probably look like this: 1. Not running the ball into the end zone on 1st & goal from the two yard line against Purdue. 2. Not having a kicker that can kick the ball far enough on kickoffs. 3. Not having a kicker that can kick the ball far enough on kickoffs. 4. Not having a kicker that can kick the ball far enough on kickoffs. 5. Not having a kicker that can kick the ball far enough on kickoffs.

  40. One additional point I’d like to add that I forgot in the OP- There is potential for 6 of our opponents in 2020 to be in the pre-season top 25 (Cincinnati, Ohio State, Iowa, Penn State, Wisconsin, Minnesota). And that doesn’t include South Dakota State, who will be ranked in the FCS Top 25 almost certainly to start the year. So potentially 7 out of 12 opponents being ranked in their respective level of football. Everyone talks about 2021 being a brutal schedule but I’m looking at this upcoming season and thinking it may be just as difficult, if not more so.
