      Has Rondale ever played against us?  I might be wrong but he has been injured every time right?

      Ron Dale played against us in 2018 in Lincoln. He did not score and wasn't the leading receiver for Purdue. The Boilers won 42-28

      I'm also happy to see Hopkins their TE in the pros.  That guy killed NU the past 2 years.  Zero answer for him.

    • Nouredin Nouili, the transfer O-lineman from Colorado State, says the NCAA has told him he has full eligibility this year. He played at 285 last year and is now up to 320. A welcome addition to the O line.

      This is nice...and EVERYONE is getting eligible this year.

  2. Diaco moves from La Tech to Purdue.

  3. These full page pop ups that keep telling me my pc is out of date are getting really annoying. I really have doubts these are coming from the right source.

      Pardon me sir/ma'am, your computer is highly out of date.  We recommend sending all of your bank data to HuskerinInLostWages and purchasing 3 of the 1000 dollar gift cards.  Once you purchase these gift cards please contact me immediately so I can remote into your computer and install a rootkit, err virus scanner to make sure your information is safe.

  4. Whenever I watch these top 10 teams play I feel like my Huskers go into a gun fight with water pistols. The speed of the running backs and wide receivers, the size and quickness of the D lineman is nearly depressing.

      Yep. Some combination of our talent and development consistently blows goats.

       

      I'm pretty sure it's harder to recruit NU than a lot of schools we'd like to be competing with but we've also has pretty crappy results with a lot of the high-caliber recruits we get.


      The silver lining I guess is that most of the best players on the team this year were guys Frost recruited. SO there's that.

      After seeing the teams in the BIG 10, none of them beside OSU recruit at an elite level. Penn St and Michigan get solid talent most years.  The rest of the teams recruit to a system and do the best they can with player development. Wisconsin does very well. Iowa most years is 9-3 or 8-4. Illinois, Indiana and Minnesota seem to have turned themselves around and are heading in the right direction.  Mich St, Purdue and NW have taken a step back this year. Rutgers and Maryland have a ways to go with facilities and recruiting.  My hope is Nebraska can climb the ladder and bring in the kids who fit the system and we learn to develop them like Wisconsin. 

       

      On a side note it seems every football announcer who does LSU games has to spill the fact that Joe Burrow wanted to come to Nebraska twice in his career.  It is sad that OC Beck under Pelini was such an a$$ and Frost already had his Qb when Joe decided to transfer.

      I was watching an Oregon game and saw a play we run.  I was thinking wow, that's how it's supposed to look.  The biggest difference was the speed it was executed at.  Our players looks like they are playing in mud.

       

      Wisconsin does a very good job developing players but they also get them to play hard.  They had to play a freshman DB against Minnesota and held his own against Minny's WRs.  He wasn't big and didn't appear to be overly fast.  He just played with a want to attitude.  Sometimes I get the impression that our players aren't willing to make a play out of concern for injury.  That wasn't even on the Wisconsin freshman's mind.

       

       

  5. We have an ant invasion this year.  Tiny black ones and also dark red large ones. I have used many of the "ant traps" that they are supposed to carry back to the nest.  They just laugh at it.  Even had the big ones start a nest inside the freezer door of the fridge and start removing the white foam insulation one tiny piece at a time. I would rather not spray every square inch of the property because of grandkids. Any solutions?

      Terro ant bait...stuff is amazing.

    3. VectorVictor

      VectorVictor

      Terro also makes a shaker bag of granules--walk around the perimeter of the house, shake the bag, and it's an effective ant barrier. Do this on top of whatever spray/concoction you use, and you should be golden.

      It's a conspiracy perpetrated by the big magnifying glass companies.

  6. A Nebraska farmer got his foot caught in an auger and before it could pull him in and take his life he used his pocket knife to cut off his own leg 8" below the knee. The will to live was strong with this one.

  7. That was an interesting Derby.....it will be remembered for something other than an exciting race sadly.

      DB and Sharpe were having an interesting debate this morning about whether or not the whole thing was "controversial." DB felt it wasn't because the stewards ultimately made the right call. Sharpe was trying to argue it was controversial because what happened caused people to lose money. (Those are the boiled down versions).

       

      Ultimately, if the stewards made the right call (which I think they did), then to me, that's just sports. Stuff happens.

  8. Purdue took out Tennessee in overtime earlier but Texas Tech has held Michigan to 16 first half points.

      I was about 35 when he was in college so he must be about 12 years younger.

  10. I'm not a fan of the Rams, but I hope Suh tears Brady a new one!

      It would be cool to see Suh deliver the “Colt McCoy treatment” to Brady.

      I have a sick feeling this is going to be a big Patriots win and I don't like it.

  11. So these are the best refs the NFL has to offer and they miss that call?  Right!

      That was absolutely horrible and oh so critical. Hate to see an outcome changed that way.

      He just laid out for another catch and took a nasty hit from Noah Pola Gates.  They are both up though and gave each other a man hug

  13. Wisconsin playing Miami in NYC. So far the Badgers are chewing up the Hurricanes.

      Rosier Jr is one of the worst QBs I have ever seen.  He cant hit the broad side of a barn 2 feet from it.

  16. Georgia DC Mel Tucker the new Colorado head coach?

  17. Michigan basketball looks to be pretty formidable this year.  They devoured the Tar Heels like a Thanksgiving turkey. We play them at Ann Arbor this year so it will be a tall order for the Huskers.

    1. VectorVictor

      VectorVictor

      So what you're saying is that we'll beat Michigan...but then turn around and lose to Penn State at home?

  18. I now understand why the Big 8/12 wanted Nebraska to go down in flames after the 97 season.  We had 3 Nattys in 5 years and it could have been 5 (Fla St and the loss to Texas in the CCG).  They were sick and tired of seeing scarlet and cream winning all the time and beating opponents by 40 points. I am sick of Alabama and the SEC and while I'm at it throw in Ohio St.

      Ohio State I don't have a problem with. They're mortal and drop games every year. Bama can suck a fart. It's disgusting watching them, they literally look like an NFL team across their front 7 and O-line.

    3. Scarlet Overkill

      I've had bama & $EC fatigue for at least 5 years.  I could not possibly care any less about any of them than i currently do.  I will rejoice when someone else steps up to the plate.

      Eh, I felt that when LSU played bama for a natty that we were all getting jabbed. We being fans of college football and its rules/traditions. One team earned its way there. The other had money riding/backing it. The rest of the sport changed. As for the Huskers, everybody loves the underdog. We were heavyweights

  19. Michigan is going to be sick this winter.  OSU woke up.

      I'm good with this.  Now just need NW to bear OSU.

  20. Most of the NFL pundits I hear are saying that the display that KC and LA put on last night is the future of the league.  I've heard the phrase "Playing basketball on grass" many times in the last month.  I'm thinking that should play into Nebraska's recruiting speech for QB's, WR's and RB's that want to go beyond college.

      They're catering to the lowest common denominator. Too many people don't appreciate a good defensive battle. They think a 9-6 type game is boring. They know nothing.

    3. TonyStalloni

      TonyStalloni

      Exactly JJ.  On the D side I think Frost and Chin try to sell the idea that a great defense with this meteoric offense is capable of winning championships.  The National variety.

  21. 0 to 10% chance of rain Monday through Thursday in Iowa. Friday it jumps to 70%.  Mid 40's for a temp.

      Sounds quite a bit nicer than this last Saturday.

    3. TonyStalloni

      TonyStalloni

      I saw today it was backed off to a 50% chance. I think our offense can be effective in drizzle or light rain.  I hope JD can play.

  22. Has anyone on the board ever dealt with the Quadratus Lumborum muscle in the low back? I first went to the chiropractor thinking it was in the spine. 8 trips and very little relief. Next was a trip to the PT and they needled it which seemed to make a difference but only for a few days.  I've found one stretch that helps.  Also laying on a tennis ball on the hot spot helps but the best I've found is an inversion table. Any suggestions?

      I love this guy's videos, and actually saw one about that quadratus not too long ago. I've been having different kinds of back pain as well, but none of it is actually related to the back muscles, moreso the internal connections and hips instead: 

       

       

    3. Ulty

      Ulty

      Also another one, not necessarily the quadratus, but if you guys are like me with similar back pain, I highly recommend giving this a look. It turned out I was having problems with the gluteus mideus. This video actually changed my life:

      Thanks Ulty.  I have seen the first one but will watch the second one. I like this guys teaching style also.

  23. I listened to Urban Meyer's press conference after the game. He had a few good things to say about the Huskers. Listen at 5:50 and 7:50.

      Thanks_Tom RR

      @commando Here is the thing, he really could not. Nebraska played themselves into that position. The failures that Ohio St had in the game were due more to what Nebraska players (and coaches) did than what Ohio St players failed to do.

       

      It's not like their kicker slipped inexplicably. You could say Haskins INT was because of a poor decision (see Martinez's failed backward pass). However, even that I would say was because Nebraska's combo coverage baited that throw.
