Clever, Moiraine, clever.... Haha but I think that's 22 or Rexy. And running with the star wars reference. You're also implying that he's Obi Wan, our only hope

Lol.

Golly I wish I weren't a poor guy living in Downtown Omaha right about now.... Haven't even been to a husker game yet. Arky state'll be my first!

Prolly Texa$$ and Michigan

Oklahoma and OSU

Colorado and Iowa

TTech and Mich State

Baylor and Northwestern

Okie State and Illinois

Can't really say I know about too many others.

Aggies and Wiscy if A&M were still there.

Way to be a fan? Do you set yourself up for failure in life so if you succeed, it'll feel better? Or are you just that bitter and pessimistic in every kid from texas? LaCatoure (sp?) was going to a Texas school for sure too, people said, and look what happened. But I digress, some sip the Kool-Aid from their light up cups, and some drink a warm cups left in the sun....

What are you talking about? The kid has been an A&M lean for a long time now, and it's a known fact. Us saying he will go to A&M is us just being realistic, we will still get an OV from him during his senior season. I don't know what kind of kool aid youre drinking but I would probably take a break from it, no one has any bitterness towards Texas kids especially ones that ahve interest in Nebraska.

 

I guess I just get bugged either way, noone knows for sure what the kid is thinking in his head and when people go and say what time is he announcing to A&M is just a defeated thought system in my opinion. You can be a realist, an optimist, or a pessimist, and to say he's favorable to a school is fine, but to just write his name in stone as a verb to the aggs, is pessimistic. Bitter wasn't the correct term though, just pessimistic that we can land Texas kids still.

He was also on the "All Herbie Team"

 

I wonder how much it hurt that pompous ass to have to mention him

 

 

Probably doesn't hurt much at all - Kirk Herbstreit has no problem against Nebraska.

+1'ed. I was just about to post this and had just saw that you had so thanks for saving me the trouble!

P.S. He was just mad his Buckeyes didnt make it anywhere close...

Hey, It's not that I don't believe you by any stretch, I just wait til they get locked into an LOI because everyone and their mother knew someone who knew Peat was gonne come to NU, and look how that turned out.

When you have dang near the most attempts in the nation, of course your yards will be up there. But Rex at least, had to fight for every damn yard he got. Which isn't anywhere close to how it was when we had great lines. And Taylor got hit alot last year in the pocket in under 3 seconds of the snap. Our O-line was less than stellar last year to put it nicely. The Bulldogs last season was able to move our line around last season fairly easily...

Are you related to him, Austin? If not, "Not so fast, my friend!"

Did Burkhead transfer?

 

Linky

 

I like those odds but where the hell is Ouhio State?

L o friggen L. One to one odds though? Maybe you have to pay them more if he wins??

Depends where you are staying. 11-Worth Cafe is THE breakfast place in Omaha.

 

I don't really know about great steak places on the Iowa side. A lot downtown/Old Market though.

Meh, maybe it's just me but I live in the apartments next to it on St. Mary's Ave. and it's good but A bit overpriced for even an egg sandwich...

I actually prefer Penny's Diner food over it... O.o

So this is a Barney Cotton issue then...

Not trying to start another Fire Barney assault, but Brian didn't even mention TM's own position coach in the coaches he loves. AKA the person most directly related to his growth as a player.

Toy Story is probably one of the most fantastic trilogies I've seen, in totality. Not going to lie, the third one made me cry.

This! I'm 20 now, but I grew up with these characters and it was a bit heart shattering to watch one of your favorite movie series die... Lame, I know, but you gotta friend in me had a sad undertone for a while in my mind after that movie.

Obvously Stanton sucks now after Dinardo says he's mediocre guys, come on................

Psn is Army_Allen

I'm down. Is this more of a dynasty or just a tournament?

Noone was forced to take Boise. They were and always were an at large bid. And it's not like they shy away from big games in their non conference sched. They were not in a situation to play Bama and USC every year due to them being interviewed conference they are now. But I can damn sure tell you that they'll be one of the best teams in the Big East. Better than UCONN that's for sure. That's the kinda games the bcs had that noone wants and WONT happen now with the playoff. And that's why I support the new system.

But how many times in the last 50 years have there really been more than 4 teams who should get a shot at the championship?

Past 5 years.

 

2011: 1 team with 0 losses, 4 teams with 1 loss

2010: 3 teams with 0 losses, 5 teams with 1 loss

2009: 5 teams with 0 losses, 1 team with 1 loss

2008: 2 teams with 0 losses, 7 teams with 1 loss

2007: 1 team with 0 losses, 2 teams with 1 loss, 10 teams with 2 losses

Boise with a loss, with their weak SOS, is not deserving of a shot at the championship. 2 loss teams are not deserving either. One of the 2 loss teams would have gotten the 4th spot in 2007, but I don't care that one is picked over the other 9 since you didn't leave out a deserving team. Likewise in 2010, you had 3 teams with a solid claim that wouldn't get left out, and you can pick 1 of the 5 who doesn't really have a claim to fill the 4th spot, leaving out 4 who didn't deserve it anyway. 2009 is the only problem, and I don't really have an issue leaving out Boise State playing a much weaker schedule.

So let me get this straight... If I'm correct in my dating, you would rather NOT have seen the matchup of Boise St. vs Oklahoma at the Fiesta bowl in what i consider to be one of my favorite matchups of all time? This is what America is all about, what we love. Seeing the little guy coming out of nowhere to win it all. Or to have a heartbreaker. We crave it. And this committee is gonna allow it when applicable. Because it will bring the ratings. And I'm glad. Because I know all the people who say Boise and TCU don't belong will either eat their words or prove me wrong. But we'll all be watching it, won't we?
