Just saw in the OWH paper they have us playing at 11:00 a.m. again. Are they just guessing or have I missed something? Everything else still lists it as TBA.

Got an e-mail from the Minn4Neb group. They are having a pep rally Friday night at 6:00p.m. at the Sky Deck on the 4th floor of the Mall of America. Since we're staying close to the Mall, we'll probably head that way.

Were going. Theres a big husker party on the top floor of the mall friday night. Tailgating in lot 33. With that early of kickoff we'll probably fire the grill back up after the game and keep tailgating. Hopefully theres some bars in walking distance.

Is this with the Minnesotans for Nebraska group? I know they have something going on at the Mall Friday but not sure where.

Is Sally's near or on campus? We are staying by the Mall, since they were the only hotels with decent prices, and were looking for a place to party Friday night and Saturday morning. I'm sure the game will be an 11:00 start although I would prefer 2:30. BTN always tries to piss me off with starting times!

Going to our first away game since going to Dallas for the Big 12 Championship game. When we were down there, it seemed like all of Nebraska took over the bar called Humperdinks. Did anyone go to a certain bar in Minneapolis the last time we played up there?

Becks 3x pass calls are forcing our defense into contain instead of pressuring QBs. But once the D is on the field Papuchis needs to have them at least formed up right.

 

Beck is calling plays that result in too many quick drives and punts. This results in the Defense, already playing poorly, getting back on the field only minutes after they allowed a score. The mentality of these first year starters must be shaken by this. Papuchis and Beck need to work together to find a rythym they can both be happy about.

What does that have to do with playing contain vs. pressuring QBs?

 

My point is that these guys are so worn down they are merely waiting for the play to develop and come to tthem rather than having some gas in the tank to attack the QB.

So do we blame the coaches or should we look in further, say, the strength coaches? I agree that Bo is no TO, but, Tony Hobson is no Boyd Epley either. Other than Suh, who have had that has been in the running for the Outland since the 90's? I know the coaches do the drills for getting in shape, but I really think things go alittle deeper than that.

I lost all respect I had for Tommie when he tweeted what he did. This university gave him what he has today, and he thinks he can tweet calling for peoples jobs? Sorry but thats just plain disrespectful to the university and most of all the fans, his comments are no better than anyones at this point.

I totally agree. I can get on twitter and rant after a belly full of booze 4 hours after a game too. It would be interesting to see the reaction if Tommie came to the middle of the field this weekend. I have a feeling it wouldn't be nearly the applause and cheers that Bo will get when he is shown on Husker Vision before the game Saturday!

Anyone have an extra pass close to the stadium? Nothing overpriced please!

Sorry Minnesota, but this is a rediculous notion: Atewe had pressure from an AAU coach, Sai lives in AZ and we were too late in the game for Ucherbo. We might have great facilities, but winning will help us recruit. Kids want to play and they want to go to the Dance.

 

I like that Miles is not in a big hurry to fill the schollies on the team. Because of Doc, he has to find D1 talent that want to play for NE. We cannot afford anymore transfers.

 

This is his first true recruiting class. Last year, he just tried to fill holes and there were a lot of them. Lets give him a little time. I am one who believes that we will be better this coming year. Also remember that we have 1 Sr. and this will be their second year under a new regime.

Couldn't have said it better myself!!!!

Someone similar to Shavon.

I believe that if we win this game then we get a rematch in the first round of the Big Ten tournament. I would be so pleased if we could beat Iowa three times in a season. So pleased.

Just like the Husker women did!

I'm not so sure the scalpers out front couldn't slide a credit card on their phones!
