  1. Can this stat be correct?

    Nebraska has been penalized for holding 10 times through 5 games and 341 offensive snaps. Our opponents? Exactly zero (0) holding penalties on 377 defensive snaps.

     

    Somebody posted this elsewhere. Unbelievable if true.

      I don’t think Holding penalties are the only questionable calls we face. Maybe I was too young to know, but for some reason I thought it was the same in the 80s and 90s, where they had to *beat* the refs too?

      Smells Like Teen Spirit...my HS was in the same league as the school where that was filmed - Cobain’s HS in Aberdeen WA. A small, rainy blue-collar town right by the coast. It was a little crazy as a 3rd grader when my classmate showed up in black and Cobain t-shirt mourning his death. I won’t forget that, the guy was a legend to grunge culture and a junkie to others.

  4. Smoked turkey...who has done it and is it better than fried/oven?

      I think smoking a turkey is worth it every year. Hands down, I like it more for leftover sandwiches, but I wouldn’t smoke one in place of baking - need to have a proper stuffing.

      Well, he had the scoop all along, but your boy Kevin Warren is a dips#!t, yet again.

      Yeah I hear that and you are correct too, there is just criticism which you referenced. However, some of the criticism I’ve seen comes from a “who the hell is this guy anyway” attitude, which is why I made the comment. If I were to defend his timing on missing announcements, it would be due to influencers delaying the messaging. My opinion is that since they plan to get the season going they opted to wait until NFL games ran its course so they could have the spotlight. Glad Carter stole it.

  10. Any one here ever try transplanting raspberry bushes? Any secrets besides digging holes?

      Echo that @commando, leaves or grass. It’s recommended during the fall, but at this point of summer it won’t hurt to re-plant now and begin watering.  @man eating mastodon

      From my Mom who transplanted a raspberry bush at their old house:

      “Yes. Just dig a hole and transplant it. You won’t have much fruit the first year. Water regularly and you will have a great harvest each year on.”

       

      I miss not having raspberry jam readily available.

  12. Well, nice to see some B1G coaches finally pushing to play in the fall today. Too bad they were too pansy to do it ahead of time. I never understood the cancel the season. Push the start back ffs.

     

  13. Best craft beers you've had (yeah, come at me). Go.

      Tank 7 and Psuedosue are a couple of my favorites. Fairy Nectar is a good Nebraska IPA. If you come across a Georgetown Brewery (Seattle), then I recommend trying the Bodhizafa, which has blown up in WA. People might be more familiar with their other brew, Manny's, which is darn good too. Mac and Jack’s African Amber is pretty solid, I miss those PNW beers.

  14. Seeing speculation that the only Fall college sport will be Football, and it's a revenue issue. Apparently lots of programs operate in the red, and if football doesn't make money, they won't be able to field teams in other sports.

  16. I love the concept of relegation that European soccer leagues use and wish it would make it's way to American sports.  Fun article about what it would like in CFB.

      I hate the ties, but I really like the relegation factor. 
       

      @Undone the long baseball season is definitely a factor in why the sport is very regionalized until the playoffs.

  17. PAC-12 players about to boycott!  They want 6 years free insurance after leaving school and 50/50 revenue share!

  18. Happy 4th of July, everyone! :thumbs

  19. Worst place you had to do #2?

     

    I have two:

    1.  Office West Lounge:  No door and it was EXPLOSIVE!  I knew there was no stall door but I had to do it, so I RUSHED that one!

     

    2.  Michigan game two years ago.  We are tailgating and I have to go.  I hit up a port-o-potty and it is is pitch black in there.  I go BAD and wiping...it was like cream cheese.

      Grocery store - leaving your cart unattended just felt wrong

      8th grade party - it was at this girls house who had a bunch of friends over from our class. Just blew it up and one of the girls walked in shortly after. Oh well

  20. I'm inordinately excited about my whet stone that just arrived and sharpening my chef's knife for the first time... ever.

    I'm also thinking about ordering a better knife sometime soon, something like a Damascus steel. Anyone have one of those?

    1. Savage Husker

      I have been gifted a Shun; chef, boning, and santoku knives over the past several years. I freakin love them. My Dad is the cook in the family, so I bought him a whet stone for Father’s Day last year and it has been quite useful. I was unsure which one to purchase, so I just went with a less expensive one that had solid reviews.
       

      Side note: If you want to gawk at some fancy Damascus steel and can afford a cool $1,000 knife, check out Muamasi Fire Art. Joe Rogan talked about him briefly on a podcast and he was a judges pick contender who won an episode on Forged in Fire. Went to HS with him and he is a super great guy. https://instagram.com/maumasifirearts?igshid=11lolgktyp3ns

  21. Was it 2012 when we beat Penn State in Lincoln running basically the same pitch play to the right side 25 times?

      Man, I remember watching Santos run onto the field late for that goal line fumble he caused. The dude’s head was turned looking back at the safety when the ball was snapped, he just reacted and made a helluva play. Cold game, but fun
