  1. Only took halfway through the first quarter for ESPN to push the "it means more for Michigan than Alabama" narrative.  

    I thought it always meant more in the $EC.

      It kind of does though. 

  2. Oregon State is also 2-7

    Riley's campaign to turn us into Oregon State has been completed.

      Ha, great minds. I saw the update and thought I'd come post that same picture. Beat me to it

      I think we'll scratch and claw our way back up out of the cliff Eichorst drove us over.  Beavers aren't going anywhere no matter how many Nebraska transfers they get.

      Yeah they beat Colorado though

  3. Per Twitter, today - 02022020 - is the first format-agnostic palindrome day in 909 years (since 11111111)

      Nevermind!

      I think the next one, but just in the American format, is 12022021. But those probably aren't rare. In fact I just thought of one; 11022011.

  4. Prediction contest open in the Crib

  5. Refs trying to hand it to Alabama.  Auburn takes it 100 yards the other way.

      Losing on an illegal substitution penalty. :laughpound I love it.

  6. RIP Sean Connery

  7. San Francisco might be worse at kicking field goals than Nebraska....

      I thought the Browns were supposed to be amazing this year...guess not.

  8. Sean McDonough is the absolute best

      Was he having a few drinks at Gate 25 again?

      Yep. Probably my favorite.

       

      But, I like all a lot of the guys that some can't stand (Nantz, Buck, etc.)

  9. Should go to bed.  1998 Orange Bowl on BTN.  Who needs sleep?

      I was up and watched a little of that also lol.

      I missed the 1997 season recap portion. That was my first time hearing that game without our radio people on VHS.

  10. Since losing to Nebraska by 25 last year, Minnesota is 13-2

    1. NUance

      NUance

      After seeing them take down #4 Penn State I feel slightly less bad about our loss.  Slightly.  

  11. So .... is there going to be any news around here?  Slow off-season???

      Any one know why he left?

    3. BigRedBuster

      BigRedBuster

      @ladyhawke I would love to know, but I doubt if we ever do as fans....unless it's a long time down the road  and he does an interview and it's asked.  Even then, we might not know the real story.

    4. ladyhawke

      ladyhawke

      I hope he finds what he’s looking for. Odd that he would wait this long to leave. If he would rather play lacrosse then this is a perfect opportunity for him to do so. 

  13. Starting Lineup is live in the Crib.

    Taking nominations for Head Coach, Offensive Coordinator and Defensive Coordinator.

  14. State patrol finding a few Colorado tags to speak with...

  15. Still time to get your predictions submitted in the Crib.  Could win a gift card.

  16. The last minute of this MNF game is completely nuts

      What an ending. Kind wanted Texans to win so that saints fans would be even saltier about losing again by penalty haha

    3. whateveritis1224

      whateveritis1224

      Biggest whiners as a fan-base. Lost whatever respect I had for them (very little) when they filed a lawsuit about the missed PI call. Bitch about it all you want like all the other fanbases whom got screwed over by missed calls., but that crossed a line.

    4. Red Five

      Whew...  Had the Texans in my loser pool (aka reverse survivor pool)

  17. The status updates were already going well beyond noting things that were happening.  So several of them have been hidden and we're back to political talk needs to stay in the P&R Forum.

      @Moiraine Yeah, I’m aware. I was just commenting on how fast it became necessary to once again relegate them to P&R. I thought it was a good idea to try a temporary allowance given current affairs. But unsurprisingly it wasn’t handled very well. Seemed to me like some P&R regulars wanted to make sure any vaguely related discussion stay off the front page and in P&R whereas originally that policy wasn’t received too well.

       

      I think it was obvious it was heading nowhere good. Just quicker than even I expected.

    3. Moiraine

      @JJ Husker  I think I only saw one post from a "P&R regular" but maybe there were others that were deleted.

    4. methodical

      methodical

      To be fair a few of those topics weren't exactly news, it was just bait-y articles that I saw passed around reddit's political subs all day that day and the loaded question belonged in P&R anyways.  I missed anything after I posted but I'll imagine it was entertaining and that I did my part I guess.

  18. There is some Husker game for the next 18 straight Saturdays!

     

     

  19. This is the last weekend without *some* kind of football until after the Super Bowl

      VectorVictor

      Um...we've had the CFL for a while now to make do with. 

       

      But hey, only half the roster is made up of American players, so it only half counts, right?

    2. MLB 51

      MLB 51

      CFL isn't real football. :)

  20. This is top shelf:

     

  21. Tiger one back with five to play

    1. Savage Husker

      Savage Husker

      Darn good day of sports. Mariners get the sweep and now Tiger in contention, a lot of excitement for one day

    2. NUance

      NUance

      Not a big fan of Tiger.  But I'm impressed with his comeback.  Seems like golfers have a hard time coming back when they plummet as far and fast as he did.  David Duval comes to mind. 

  22. Trying to keep up with Twitter on a day when "official" offers are released, Urban Meyer news drops and Maurice Washington gets cleared has been .... interesting.

      Luke Fickell doesn't count as half a coach.

  23. Twitter is suggesting that I follow Notre Dame Football.

    Might have to delete my account.

      Just follow me instead lol.

      Just do it, you're already a total stick in the mud, this would just complete the cycle.

      :D

  24. Voting now open for Kick Returner, Punt Returner and Gunners.  My apologies for being slow.
