It's the Jamal Turner show today!

Is there some SEC-FCS Challenge that I'm unaware of today?

My peripheral made that looks like "Sharts" lol Freudian slip.

Would be sweet if Jamal would get some chances at returning punts - that drop notwithstanding.

Nice start, 'Shirts!

I really didn't think he would but apparently they talked him into it.

"Luckily" they beat No. Illinois by 1, have No. Iowa on the schedule and snuck by Michigan St. in overtime. Could easily have finished 1-11 (if we beat them, of course).

Best of luck for a quick recovery. Nice to see they like that play we ran against them so much that they stole it.

I also don't think Bo gets enough credit - even among Husker fans - for his improvement over the years. Yes, he still gets fired up at times but it was almost and every game thing his first couple years. Now its only here and there. And no total meltdowns since aTm. He still has a ways to go in that area but he's a lot better than he was, imho.

Huskers - 38 Bronze Gophers - 10 Passing - 275 Rushing - 310

Did you not watch the Penn St. game? We've given two punts back that led to touchdowns in games we've won by 1 and 9 points to say nothing of field position. Not saying it actually will happen. Only that it should be considered. Read the whole paragraph. Since the Nortwestern game, We did not (not, have not) have a muffed punt, and I don't know why they changed our PR's. Marlowe should have never been on the field to take those with his injury. Maybe you should read my whole paragraph. Did I dream this up or did Marlowe fumble a punt against Penn St that led to a TD? I believe that has been since the Northwestern game.

One or two carries so he can get a standing ovation as he comes off the field.

and if we should lose

No you saw what happened to Marlowe. Rest him up. Which is why I only want to put him out there to fair catch where he wouldn't get hit.

And Nebraska has never won a National Championship except for the five they have. Always nice to just dismiss someone you don't like rather than give them credit for what they can do. I'm sure telling you that he's the sixth-leading rushing QB in the nation this year and that only three QBs with more rushing attempts than he has have a better yards per carry average won't change your mind but maybe someone else will appreciate it.

... at least to fair catch a punt or two? I really don't want him to play RB before the bowl game because I think he'll just get injured and set him back again but perhaps he is healthy enough to be able to get to a punt. For as great as Rex is, we haven't lost a lot with AA out there at RB but we've really missed him in the return game.

Exactly what I was going to say.

I think that what we're seeing is more getting back to where he was pre-injury that anything. Yes, there is improvement as well be he wasn't the same player after he got hurt. Also, I think the coaches really got after him early last year about the fumbles and it made him timid. Now his confidence - and health - are back and he can get back to playing the way he is used to. For example, check out these highlights from the first half of his freshman year. Not only the running but the throwing motion was a lot better than it was last year. When your body isn't letting you do what you want, it's easy to get into bad habit. Kudos to Taylor for working to correct the bad habits and improve his overall game. https://www.youtube....h?v=v_za877AcxA Edit: Apparently I'm dumb in the head because I can't get the video to imbed properly anymore.

Many were complaining that Bo was the problem when we had meltdowns. Any of those want to give him and the coaching staff any credit for leading a team and has about as much resolve as any in recent memory?

#13 Stanford still has to go to #2 Oregon and #17 UCLA so they could drop. #12 Oklahoma is @ West Virginia, Bedlam (#24) and @ TCU. Maybe ... maybe not. #11 Clemson will beat NC St. but then has #9 South Carolina so we might get ahead of one or the other #10 Florida St. will be Maryland and then has #6 Flordia. Maybe ... maybe not. Probably not going to get ahead of anyone else without winning the Rose Bowl. If we win the B1G we will probably be right on the edge of the Top 10.

A couple nice pass breakups. I was really impressed when he came off coverage and hit the RB in the backfield. A couple nice games!

I was at the game and also though he played decently. I was surprised when I got to look at the stats and realized he was under 50% and was sacked three times. We really shut him down in the second half: 8-19 for 80 yards with an INT and a safety. Not the worst performance ever but into the graveyard he goes.

Also ran for two first downs and 8 yards on another carry. That's five very productive carries out of his eight. Perhaps Penn St.'s telegraph was broken??
