They have Lucky as the #10 best off. player. The way it sounds it should look like this: 10t - Lucky 10t - Gleen 10t - Jackson 10t - Wilson But hey, what do I know? I'm so ready for kickoff, it's killing me!

Why would he want to play football, I thought he was doing so well selling tupperware and breast enhancing cream?

I would also like to be added in the mix for creating articles, pics, etc. As my handle indicates, I do live in Texas, but I will be at the A&M game and a potential bowl game. Plus it isn't too difficult to pick up most of the games on TV. Just fill me in on the details and I'll be happy to help out.

K-STATE.....with all the other "primadonnas". Maybe he can hold a clipboard with Freeman..... Lets try to get past this and concentrate on the games, enough of the reality show drama.

95% sure I'll be there, looking for tickets now. I'm originally from Nebraksa, so these obviously are the only games I can see live now. Ain't so bad though when they have their bowl game in SA.

Ummm, I think they forgot to mention who was going to play Kansas St in the Charmin Toilet Bowl......

Thanks Ag, I was hoping you seen my post since you probably knew best. Even though I live in Texas, I still get to watch at least one game a year (last year Baylor and the Alamo Bowl, next year in Austin). Thanks again Ag, appreciate the help!

Does anyone know where the visitors section for the A&M game will be? I'm just trying to get me tickets early. Thanks!

Crouch, 94 yard bomb? You're kidding me right? He probably threw a quick 4 yard out and the guy ran it 90 yards......j/k , love Crouch and wish him well up there.

Here is what the article said....... Callahan brought one of his former bosses in during the spring to get a look at the offense and help fine-tune it. Tampa Bay head coach Jon Gruden, who preceded Callahan as head coach in Oakland, observed Taylor during the spring and was impressed. "I've seen guys take major jumps in year two as a starter in this system,'' Gruden said. "I think his intelligence, his background, is really going to help him this year. I'm impressed.'' Gruden liked Taylor's demeanor and attitude as he ran the offense with confidence and precision during the spring. "I saw him making all kinds of throws today -- moving to his right, moving to his left, from the shotgun, three-step drops,'' Gruden said. "I'm impressed with his toughness. He takes hits, he gets up, he keeps playing. He throws a friendly ball. I think the receivers have a lot of confidence in him. He's got a great command of this offense.''

Just found this on ESPN's review of each college team. Also gives an in-depth preview position by position. (Need an "Insider" subscription, but there is a free trail if you don't have it). Link

I'm glad that I'm not the only one that had this dream..........

My father in law is a big Iowa honkie and his discussion boards members are thinking IOWA v NU in the Alamo Bowl. That would be a very good game, especially if both teams have their A game.

I totally agree here, good points huskerguy4. We couldn't stop Missouri's Crouch(with an arm), most defenses can't. A week of practice and a boost of confidence will bring a victory this week. IMO OU's offense is showing signs of improvement but I still think the Blackshirts are in the top teirs of CF. Taylor only had one bad throw against MU (one of two INTs were tipped at the line for a jump ball) . This guy gets a little better each week. If the O-line can get their chit together and pass block, it'll be a good game for us. Oh yeah, if the ball hits you in the chest, you probably should catch it, that always helps. STAY AT HOME DEFENSE, as Samuel A. Jackson once said, "Assumption is the mother of all f**k ups."

Brand new game boys....24 up. its all good what comes around goes around........

Classic pic of a MU fan in his Looney Tones gear, typing 87 wpm and bumping his gums trying to round up some WWE buddies to go to the game. Dude probably knows nothing about football, just wants to start some chit. Beware of purple shirt bugs on Sat. (Still can't believe Pujols jacked on out in the ninth last nite, sorry had to throw it in)

Just checked the cable guide, its on FSN down here in Texas, dont know about anywhere else.

Neither team (Tech or Horns) have a defense that can stop the other. The last team that scores wins this game. 52 - 49 Raiders (Hodges is the man right now, V. Young is a close second).

NU 37 MU 21 Pass 270 Rush 225

This is my first discussion board so, let me know if I violate any "unwritten" rules. My father in law and I sat behind a older couple from Dallas that actually went to high school with Dr. Tom in Hastings. The gentleman's father was "talked" into playing football at NU from a co-worker with the last name of Rudd. Yes I know, very weird, but still very cool. I lived in Nebraska my entire life(4yrs Marine Corps the execption) and just moved down here about 2 years ago. This is the first NU game I've been able to attend since the move. I didn't realize how well we traveled and the nation wide fan base that existed before this game. Without trying to be too biased, NU fans are the one of classiest and it showed during the Baylor game. I would drop dead if Colorado fan stood up at a game in Lincoln to clap for guys like Shields or other quality pros like Ahman Green. Solid game, more of the same against the Tigers on Saturday.
