  1. Is Chili & Cinnamon Rolls Nebraska's "signature dish?"

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      How has no one yet pointed out that multiple states think that cinnamon rolls and chili is their unique thing? A quick Google search turns up more mentions of Iowa and Kansas than Nebraska. People in South Dakota also think they are special for having had it in the school cafeteria. It's just a weird Midwest thing.

       

      Runza is the obvious answer for signature Nebraska dish. It's just not something you see much anywhere else, but everyone who has spent any time in Nebraska knows damn well what it is.

  2. Honest question....we are a week team mentally. FCS, get some swagger.

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      I watch a ton of FCS football (and you should too!). Nebraska is not an FCS team. Probably not as good as NDSU, but that's about it.

  3. Virginia went 18/25 from 3 tonight

      With that kind of night they might beat UMBC this year.

  4. My RetroPie is complete, and I've been able to play classics like Lords of Thunder and Castlevania: Rondo of Blood for the first time in decades. 

    $60 and a couple of hours, and you too can go back in time.

      I did the same, but with an arcade focus. Working on building the actual cabinet now.

  5. Would any one of you buy a Tesla? They look intriguing but I think they’re overpriced

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      No. I like the idea of owning an electric car, but the value of a new Tesla is going to go to s#!t very quickly. It's a luxury car built on developing technology. Double whammy (unless you like pissing away tens of thousands of dollars).

  7. Did Romo spill the beans on something?  Have seen numerous things about Romo scripting the plays before they happened.  

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      Are you trying to insinuate that the game may be scripted? I don't know where else you could be going with this.

  8. NFL overtime rules are absolute garbage. Why would you put so much weight on a coin toss?

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      They allow the game to go on if the first possession ends in a FG. They recognized that it's unfair to not give both teams a chance, and still f#&%ed up that rule change.

  9. Can you burp on command?

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      I have a brother who can puke on command. It's insane. Growing up he would do it a lot, just suddenly show you what he had been eating...then swallow it again.

  10. Has anyone ever seen a more ill-advised fake FG before? My lord. Clemson's got a base defense and you try to run it with a 3rd string QB on 4th and 6?

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      Then naturally Clemson turns it right into a TD. 37-16. Well timed SEC SEC SEC commercial following on my broadcast.

  11. Looking back, it's amazing Adam Sandler was paid to star in Billy Madison. A truly terrible film.

     

    Happy Gilmore > any other early Sandler film, IMO. I'll die on this hill.

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      I've always held them as equals, with no other Sandler film ever holding a candle to either.

  12. The angle of this bball game sucks. Making me sick. Where are they, directly above them in the rafters?

    1. mrandyk

      Pretty close. Cameras are behind the fans up on the upper concourse.

  13. Out of curiousity I counted 3 NE boys on NDSU's roster which includes their starting QB Easton Stick and 16 on SDSU's roster. I didn't know there was a Saint Helena, NE.

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      I grew up on a farm straight across the river from St Helena and have driven by the sign a thousand times on 81 and I'm still not convinced the town exists.

  14. UCF vs LSU

    1. mrandyk

      I'd love to see UCF go undefeated, but I'd be shocked if they are in this one without Milton.

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      Win this one and there's no way they get left out of the playoff next year. LSU that is. UCF needs at least 5 undefeated seasons in a row to sniff that.

  16. If UCF doesn't make it into the playoffs again, somebody needs to file a law suit or something. What's the point of a playoff if you do everything asked of you under two staffs and get snubbed twice in a row.

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      @ReduxThat lost game may or may not be a home game. Have you considered the obscene amount of money an actual playoff would generate for the conferences?

      @ReduxNo one would miss that one game if it meant a chance at playoffs. Would you really have missed that Akron game if it had never been scheduled?

       

      I can not understand why one would be against an actual playoff system. It's implemented in every other level of this and every other sport. Why would it not work here?

      A system that allows a team to go undefeated two years in a row and not even come remotely close to having a chance at competing for the title is asinine.

      I follow FCS football very closely. They only have 11 game seasons. No one feels ripped off by not having that 12th game if they don't make the playoffs.

       

      The regular season also has a lot more value because most games are relevant. Higher ranked teams are fighting for seeding, fringe teams are fighting for their playoff lives. In our current FBS model very few games each week actually impact the "playoff" picture.

      Just like how the NFL regular season has lost its value? Give me a break. No one cares who won the conference and the pointless bowl games won't be any less pointless.

      Expand the damn field already. NFL, D1 FCS, D2, NAIA, D3, and high school all have 8, 12, or 16+ team playoffs.

  22. Debate question: Did what UCF did this year diminish what Frost did?

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      Kind of? I mean, Frost would look better if UCF went 0-12 this year. It also looks really good to see his recruits winning too since the majority of the guys he won with weren't his recruits.

  23. Bama tied with Citadel at half...wut

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      Citadel hasn't even attempted a pass. How can such a bad one-dimensional team hang with that defense?

      Best trophy in college football.

  25. How easy is it for former Husker players to get hooked up with a sweet job if they stay in the state?  

    1. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      Are we talking starters or guys who never saw the field? If it's a recognizable name they'd be a lock for that opening at the car lot.
