I think that if you fork over the 10 to reserve a ticket and your team doesn't make it the company should just refund your 10 because it's not like they actually lost money. Plus whatever they refund to the fans of the teams not making it...it will be more than off-set by fans buying tickets from the teams that did make it. Just seems that keeping that 10 bucks is overtly greedy and unnecessary.

And yet it never seems to occur to anyone in government that they could cut spending.

You guys better beat Alabama...

Hey yeah what a "great" idea! They get us shmucks to give them 10 bucks and if our team doesn't make it they get to keep the 10 bucks. Why don't I just flush a 10 dollar bill down the toilet?

The looks on the faces in the background are interesting.

Because wasteful government spending is what is done in someone else's district.

Well then that rules out this one:

Actually Cotton may be at OG... I remember last season he was seriously pushing for PT, then got hurt, and was out for the season... And the roster at huskers.com just lists Sam Cotton, and indeed all the OL as OL-not broken down by position.

I'm going to see it either tomorrow afternoon or Monday evening. It looks incredible from the previews.

I think the best recruiting site is the one that has the Huskers ranked the highest.

The depth at RB behind Rex, recruiting or not, we have three more than capable guys: Ameer, Marrow, and Heard with Imani already on campus and and Bo looking at Newby and Comier. I think we get one of these guys.

Was that before or after he asked about his CHECKS?

Or Peter.

I think Tyler Moore, Brent Qvale, Jake Cotton, Mike Moody, and Zach Sterup will be duking it out for the two starting OT spots.

I've often thought, without having any real inside information, that the "get open" concept is more based on the WR reading what the defense is doing pre-snap and then basing the route off of what he sees rather than having a play with set routes which would be the old school way. And match-up zone, I think, is essentially "get open" except in reverse. In other words our defense watches film, notes what types of routes are run in certain down and distance situations, and bases coverage off of it. Is that more or less the case in both scenarios?

Every defense struggles with mobile QBs--not just Nebraska's.

Body type of players is not versatility...

What happened to their scholarship limits? Are they oversigning and going to cut some other players? Well right now they're at 15 commits... http://rivals.yahoo.com/footballrecruiting/football/recruiting/commitments/2013/usc-62 ...so if they get any more commits they are theoretically over their NCAA mandated 10 scholarship reduction allotment. It'll be interesting to see how many they actually sign in Feb.

I agree with you although it should be pointed out that if our WRs wouldn't have dropped so many passes last season Taylor's completion percentage probably would have been 60% or exceedingly close to it.

Are you saying I suck more than Missouri? 3 2 1

That's true only to a degree. There are definitely differences in the personnel required to run a 3-4 versus a 4-3. The biggest difference is on the DL. In a 4-3 you can have DEs that weigh 240 or so and DTs around 285. In a 3-4 DEs are generally 275+ and NTs are 330. Now those are 3-4 NFL ideals, but in terms of personnel, the is quite a difference between a DL in a 3-4 versus a 4-3. ILBs are more similar in a 3-4 and 4-3 than they are different. However, OLBs in a 4-3 are typically smaller than they are in a 3-4.

This is a great place to talk about Obama. I can't believe I didn't think of it first. It was a just some humor to go along with your 600 pund NT comment...lighten up.

I dunno...does Obama's ego play football?

This ^^. I agree Missouri has a puncher's chance in those games. Missouri though will be hard pressed to find 8 wins this season and it wouldn't surprise me if they go 6-6. I think they win the games Sam Spade bolded and I think they spilt the games (go 2-2) you mentioned Mor.
