  1. 97-3 in a game and a half

    OSU on the left

    Nebraska on the right

     

    Scott Frosts UCF team would be competing closer than this no matter who they played. 

  2. Hey if you are cool and like basketball and brackets and such, head over to the contest crib. You don't need to know a lot about bball to win. It is an ESPN Tourney challenge and search Huskerboard to join it would be super fun if we could get some more people.

      Thanks for promoting it @HuskermanMike

      Figured you guys needed someone to make you look like superstars.  My bracket is done and I'm typically I'm washed out very early.  Shoot the moon!

  3. If Tre Bryant plays this weekend we will win! I hope he can play cause it makes Langs run the ball. 

    Also if we see poor offense the next two games don't be surprised for Mike to take over playcalling.

      If our line lets our RBs get hit behind the LOS most of the time it wont matter whos running the ball.

  4. John Beilein to the Cavs! I am actually shocked by this move. Cavs want to try and win now without LeBron.

  5. Maryland offense looking good. That will be a tough game come November. 

  6. Merry Christmas all!

    And a Frosty new Year!

  7. Nebraska is now 0-6 with the new uniforms that have no stripes. #Bringbackthestripes.

      Sounds like something a Packers fan would come up with :D  #SKOL

      @Cdog923 I think you mean 2007 instead of 2008? Anyway, we at least won games with them and now we are not winning games. I thought the striped pants were a lot cooler than these uniforms.

  8. One quarter into the season and we already have a targeting foul. They got that one right though.

  9. We really took our 9 wins for granted that we got as fans. Many of us on here thought anyone could get 9 wins at Nebraska, myself included. Now, we would be ecstatic to just get that many wins. Sigh.

      @HuskermanMike of course 9 is better than 5 and it would've been especially helpful to get to a bowl game this year. So in that sense, yes I would've been ecstatic. My original comment was made in the context of whether or not I would rather have Pelini's 9 typical wins, and no I wouldn't. I'd rather put up with fewer now so that in the larger scheme we can achieve even more later. I may be weird or spoiled from the 80's-90's but 9 wins without titles is just another number without any 'ships. But right now any additional win would be better.

      Man, first the Solich curse. Now the Pelini curse.

      Gotcha @JJ Husker, not trying to have a bring back Bo party or anything but I would love to get 9 wins. Sadly it might be two or three years until we can get that many. Let's just hope this suffering we go through now will pay off. 

  10. Where is rumorville?

      CONSPIRACY!!! :ahhhhhhhh

       

      In all honesty, I just hadn't checked for a day or two. It looks like we're experimenting with no Rumorville for the time being. There's been some confusion about whether ALL rumors should go there or just Husker related rumors. Our members will also often post similar topics in both forums out of confusion or how they personally weigh the validity of the 'rumor.' It just happened with some POB stuff, for example.

       

      Anyways, if something is a rumor, we'll sort of keep an eye out for it and see if it should perhaps have "Rumor" placed in the thread title or if there's enough foundation to it that it can just be discussed like any other topic.

       

      Open to feedback on this, though.

  11. A Big Ten West team has still not won the B1G Championship. Wisconsin won it before there was a split. Since the East/West split B1G West teams are 0-8.

      I don’t see it as a problem at all. So far it’s just been a golden opportunity terribly squandered by Nebraska.

       

      Wouldn’t it be so nice to control and dominate the West? Our own ineptitude has been the only thing preventing it.

    3. Enhance

      @JJ Husker I think that's a bit irrelevant to his point as he wasn't explicitly outlining any benefit or detriment for Nebraska.

       

      Obviously, the fewer the obstacles to the B1G championship the better if you're in the West, but from an objective perspective regarding the balance of the league, one division is structurally and fundamentally better equipped to succeed.

       

      Having the weaker division doesn't mean much for success either. Same thing happened in the Big 12. Whomever in the north patty caked their way through that division would just lose to whatever elite team made it through the southern gauntlet. I don't really see that changing to often with the likes of tOSU, MU and PSU all in one division, regardless of how bad or good Nebraska is.

      Well I was replying to your @Enhance statement that it was a problem. I don’t disagree with anything you’ve said, but I also think it is advantageous for Nebraska if nothing changes with the divisions. It’s all a moot point as long as Nebraska keeps it’s head up it’s a$$ but our path to anything meaningful couldn’t be easier than it is now.

  12. Apparently on Saturday after Drew Brown had to make a tackle on a kickoff he sprinted back to the sideline and started yelling at his teammates. He was mad cause the team did not care, they did not try and fight off their blocks and the kicker had to play DB when he didn't have to. Kudos to him for being a vocal leader, but man we need guys to not quit in games period.

      Best player on the team, wonder how much Adidas had to pay him to get him here.

    3. Pedro Guerrero

      I thought he said in the paper he was mad at himself because he kicked it to the wrong place and left his teammates in a bad spot.

      Pedro that sounds more like the Drew Brown we've all come to know. Team player/selfless.  Good kid. 

  13. Does Demornay have a possibility for a medical redshirt? How many games did he play in 2015? I thought last time it was a no but I saw somewhere that he may be able to apply for it.

    1. ZRod

      ZRod

      He played 5 I believe,  so technically he's a no. But I don't think jt would hurt to apply. I thinm they make exceptions sometimes.

    2. ScottyIce

      ScottyIce

      Maybe him and Tommy can get the same exception that Lee got?

  14. Entire Gameday crew picks Northwestern. C'mon man! 

    The guest picker said this was easy? He hasn't done his homework on how close the NU battle is. 

  15. ESPN making fun of Nebraska wanting to play football. No matter what happens it was the right thing to do for sure. We will see what these coaches and players are made of in these next few weeks.

      308_Husker

      Sure, it's easy to make fun of us at this point. They pick the lowest hanging fruit, which is us and we make it easy for them. 

       

      It's also incredibly lazy and s#!tty journalism.

    2. ladyhawke

      I stopped caring what ESPN thought about us and sports in general a long time ago. 
        

  16. Melo to OKC! We will contend with the warriors, hopefully we move the ball around with two ball stoppers on the team. Now Russ has a reason to pass and can rest more.

      Meh, gets them closer, but they still won't be getting by GS.

  17. UCF won without playing the fourth quarter! 

  18. Was playing an older Madden Game and I injured the return man. Once I saw who it was I could not believe it, Troy Walters. He played with some of the best receivers in the NFL after looking at his career. Excited to see what he does with our young and talented wide receiver group!

      ColoradoHusk

      Troy Walters was a pretty darn good receiver on his own.  He was an All-American and Belitnikoff Award winner at Stanford.  Then he bounced around the NFL for a number of years, even though he was only 5'8" and 170 lbs.

  19. 95-96 Bulls>>>>>>>>>15-16 Warriors because no one would stop Jordan.

      I give the Warriors one series win cuz Steve Kerr would purposely throw games so Steve Kerr the coach can win one too.

      I mean, the Sonics did stop the Bulls. Twice in fact.

      The bulls got blown out once in the playoffs, the warriors have been blown out at least 4 times.

  20. Any other news on big game Bob Diaco and his defense

      Does that mean we can sub or run someone onto the field in the middle of the play C N Red? :)

      The old fo fiddy strategy!

    4. HuskermanMike

      HuskermanMike

      Absolutely Zrod! Except sub someone in to run after the QB or drop into coverage if need be. Never doubt the 10 man defense either, it might confuse the offense!

  21. Anyone know if my profile pic was a player of the University of Nebraska? I found it on the internet a while ago and I assumed it was just some random guy wearing a blackshirt.

  22. Anyone know much about LSU special teams the last three years? The special teams coordinator is not returning and it might be retirement but I'm not sure

  23. Anyone remember Digital Blue cameras?

      I remember Baby Blue from the last episode of Breaking Bad.

  24. Anyone think a run game coordinator/special teams coach would be a good hire next? Also maybe has some ties in Texas or Florida to help recruit.

      Nice. I think that covers a lot of things that could improve. The question is who?
