To consistently negative people, In the wake of the PSU scandal, how important is it to you that Bo runs a clean program? He has won at least nine games every year, which was certainly Dr. Tom's minimum standard. When confronted with a moral scandal, he has canned the offending assistant coach. He has shown the willingness to drop players when they can't follow team rules. Are you a win at all cost/championship or fire the coach kind of guy, or does running a quality program hold some weight with you?

It also depends on where the game is played. Are you talking neutral site? The only team we can't beat is LSU. You can't say OSU; we beat them in Stillwater last year! Everyone else has a loss; therefore, they are beatable.

3 dropped passes! Martinez looks accurate. Catch the ball!!!

What does that pre game prayer say about how much Ron Brown is respected in the coaching industry?! To be the speaker for both teams on the road? Wow!

Martin at TE? What happened to Kyler Reed?!

I just have no idea what to expect from this game. PSU is going to come out with a "Win one for Joepa" mentality that will be hard to deal with. I just hope their buzz/high won't last past halftime.

Ha! I would love to see TO Bull hand it to a young PSU punk! Like Nolan Ryan headlock punching Robin Ventura!

There's no way we lose out, but each game will be interesting. Blackshirts007, don't skip class, or else it will be, "Seven years of college down the drain."

This is so frustrating. C'mon Huskers. Get it back.

Are Husker players currently on this message board talking about the Big Ten Championship? They are certainly not taking care of business at home right now. I hate all this talk about the future. No one talked about the Wildcats this week - only who we were going to play at Lucas Field in Indianapolis.

Mo Fan, Are you suggesting a cause and effect relationship between your booing and success for the Huskers?! Like you just gave them the proper motivation they needed? We all stick together in all kinds of weather. Classy Husker fans don't boo the opposition, let alone our own men.

Bill Snyder - greatest turnaround in the modern era. KSU was terrible every year before him.

1) How long have you been a member of Husker Nation? I was born in 1970 during the year of Nebraska's first championship. Coincidence? I think not! 2) What/who led you to The Nation? My grandfather lettered for Nebraska from 1929-1931. My parents both went there. I met wife there. We're lifers. 3) Where are you from originally? Tecumseh, Nebraska 4) Where do you live now? Rota, Spain 5) Favorite Husker memory? Cory Schlesinger, @ Miami with Warren Sapp and Ray Lewis, Kent Pavelka, "Touchdown, touchdown! Bring that trophy back to Lincoln!" It brings tears to my eyes every time I watch the DVD; we had lost so many bowl games in a row. Everybody said he couldn't win the big one. It was just so gratifying to see Tom Osborne win the National Championship. 6) Worst Husker memory? No contest, 1983 - the scoring explosion falls a point short. It was so lame that Miami got to play at home in bowl games. 7) Number of home games attended? Around 40 back in the day. I have a great job now, but I sure miss home football games. 8) Number of away games attended? 5 - 1986 Sugar Bowl, Missouri 1987, Manhattan 1990 back when KSU sucked and there was more red than purple, Gator Bowl 2008, Virginia Tech 2009 9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel? a football that I got from a Husker practice I was fortunate to attend 10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game? AFN 11) Favorite all time player? Grant Wistrom - 3 rings 12) WCO or Option? Option. 13) Stevie Pederson or Billy Byrne? Byrne stole my family's basketball tickets, so I'll say Devaney. 14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker? Herbie 15) Favorite Husker play? Man, woman, and child, Johnny The Jet Rodgers just tore 'em loose from their shoes! 16) Favorite game-day beverage? Back in college, I was such a nerd that I didn't drink before the game like everyone else in my fraternity because I wanted to watch the whole game. I've certainly made up for it now, though - a cooler full of ice cold beer. 17) How did you find HuskerBoard? After all the drama on HP

Out of Staters: Where do you currently live? I was born in Tecumseh, Nebraska, but I live in Rota, Spain. Where have you lived the longest? My dad was in the Army, so we moved around a lot. I've lived here for eight years, the longest of any tour in my life. Where has been your favorite place to live/visit? Bali Where is your ideal place to live? Lincoln, Nebraska Work: What is your current occupation? DoDDS teacher What has been your best job ever? security guard for a 311 concert Worst job? dishwasher at Marriott Tan-tar-a Dream job? I want Chris Fowler's position! Hobbies: What do you enjoy doing in your free time? I watch a lot of sports, and I play fantasy sports a lot. I coach my children in youth sports. I love my wife. I read books, watch movies, and play Playstation. I've lived overseas for 16 years, and I only get back to Nebraska during the summer, so I miss Memorial Stadium! I get to watch them on AFN a few times a year. Strangest/most interesting hobby, skill or personal anecdote? I like to sing and act. I'm the drama teacher, so I've directed several plays.

...when we win a conference championship. We've been so agonizingly close the last two years.

I hope I'm wrong, but I don't see us winning both road games; meanwhile, MSU has it pretty cushy from here on in, so I don't see us getting a rematch with anyone.

Why are some people surprised that young players need awhile to get good? We had to replace Prince, Hagg, and Gomes. Did you expect Green to walk onto the field and just shut everyone down? Don't look now, but the pups are starting to learn to fetch!

I can only tell you what it looks like on TV. The last game was electric! Booing your own 20-year-old players is just unacceptable (OSU game). Earlier in the year, much of the crowd just sat on their hands. The camera scanned the crowd, and they were just sitting there, even after big plays.

Nebraska 45 Northwestern 24 passing yards - 215 rushing yards - 286
