So you would rather be lied too? I think the Journal Star, and OWH both do a fine job, and I appreciate the honesty/critique that the OWH offers it's readers. McKewon, Chatlein, Nawyata (?), and Shatel all do a fine job in my opinion.... A lot of Nebraska fans don't want to hear the truth, and I think that the OWH offers alot of harsh truth in their stories. Having said that, I do get annoyed with some of their opinions, but a lot of times its because I don't want to accept the "truth" or the perception of the "truth".... Well sure if you accept that the only "truth" is in what they say.

I think that Michigan State will finish 9-3 because of their schedule. They have one tough home game when they host Nebraska (which I think they'll lose) and then they go on the road to play Michigan and wisconsin. This Spartan team could more than likely get to 9 wins.

I know. Dennard Robinson can play all five ol spots AND qb...that's how "talented" he is. UCLA reminds me a lot of Colorado. Both teams are usually very talented but let the laziest among them hold sway. The result? Annually a 6-6 record.

Straight ahead, kick ass rock 'n roll. Dead Sara covered Rage Against The Machine's "Killing In The Name Of" at the end of their set (on June 14th) and just killed it. Their whole set was superb.

Barney Cotton was photographed at the scene breaking this kid's leg. Seriously though, this probably bodes well for MU in '13 and beyond. But in '12, starting five true freshman or walk-ons = disaster. Those frosh better grow up quick otherwise the Wolverines might tank this season.

It would actually be "Jesus's sake" or "Jesus' sake." Hey Jesus makes the rules not me.

Looking good when you're wearing shorts and no pads, with no pass rush, is one thing. Looking good when you're wearing pads and have a fierce pass rush in your face is something else entirely. In summary, the "elite 11" is nothing more than a beauty pageant. Yeah it's nice to look at but means almost nothing.

For the life of me I'm totally mystified as to why people will think that UCLA will be such a tough game. Nebraska, I think, is going to win this game by 60.

You better start preparing for this pretty soon, because we aren't going to go 30-0 against Iowa until 2042 - they play everyone tough, never get blown out the way that we were against Wisconsin and Michigan. Sounds like something a closet Iowa fan would say. If I had a kid and he or she came to me and told me he or she was gay I'd say that's okay, you're my kid and I still love you. If I had a kid and he or she told me he/she was now an Iowa fan, I'd kick it out of the house and disown it.

Here's what I've gleaned from those who fancy themselves as "realists:" They, and only they, have a valid opinion about how the season can go.

I saw it too and thought, pfttt... But then again, last year at this time most media people were in fact picking Nebraska to win the conference and we fell on our face. So it is somewhat understandable that they won't be back on our bandwagon until we actually prove we can win the conference by actually doing it. On a completely separate note: Joey Galloway and Jason Sehorn are, BY FAR, the WORST on-air personalities I've ever seen. They have the kind of "insight" into college football that Dr.Suess does in the literary world. My apologies to Dr. Suess for lumping him into the same dung heap as Galloway and Sehorn. I listen to these guys talk and I swear to God I lose IQ points.

Penn State is the one team that I would say has the best chance to unexpectedly beat us. Ever since they had the sanctions cast upon them, everyone has counted them out already. I honestly think that they will be pretty good this year. They will be stout once again on defense, and with an offensive-minded head coach taking a new (and probably better) approach on the offensive side of the ball, Penn State is one team that could be pretty dang good. I'm going to agree that Penn State could be good. But they won't and here's why: 1. Silas Redd and a host of other very good players have exited. 2. Bill O'Brien is coming from the NFL and typically coaches from the league have bad teams their first season: Callahan, Weis, Sherman, et al. 3. No depth. This team better stay healthy because they literally have no one behind the starters. Bottom line, Penn State could rally and over-achieve this year. But my money is saying that once the grind of the season starts the lack of depth just crushes this team. If PSU goes 8-4 in the regular season or better then O'Brien is hands down Coach Of The Decade (not just year). I think Penn State will be 5-7 at best in '12.

Best case scenario: 12-0 regular season, win the conference and national title finishing 14-0. Worst case scenario: 0-12 regular season with no bowl game or anything else.

In-state papers and media outlets should be at least a little biased towards the home team. I don't think they should be blind sycophants but the Omaha World Herald seems to me like they go out of their way to be antagonistic.

I like this cat's train of thought. Nebraska absolutely sucks, they have at best NAIA talent.......................................................... sarcasm?

Better question is. What the hell were you doing on that side of town anyway? Well obviously my Tom Tom malfunctioned.

If you get a chance, check out DS live. They are flat out awesome.

Yeah Lazlo's in the Haymarket brews their own beers...

Massive? Oh yea. Oh no, do the fishbowl either Friday night before the game or Saturday night after the game. You do a fishbowl before the game and you probably won't remember a thing. LOL. And a point of clarification: A fishbowl is best when shared among three to five people. Drinking a fishbowl by yourself...lmao!

And yet...

Interesting that we will play Illinios in 2013 (the first year that he's eligible). Any idea as to whether he starts or plays?

I will end you. Promises, promises.

Bump bitches.

On a site like this where 97% (give or take a few percentage points) are men, I would hope to God that dogs would run away with the vote. And the results of the poll don't disappoint. Dogs >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> cats.
