      I still wonder if Husker OC Tim Beck had even been cordial to Joe and his dad when they visited here if we would have had a shot with him.

  2. Why do we have dark green and light green +1s?  This has been low key bugging me since we went to this board type.  Is anyone else in favor of eliminating one of them?

      No idea why they didn't get rid of the extra +1 when they ditched the eye roll and confused reactions.

    4. Redux

      I still say make all reactions transparent.  It would lead to more quality upvoting.  Bring back the eye roll and let people se who thinks they are morons, about 90% less would be handed out.  +1 's wouldn't flow like tears off ScottyIce's face.  It's about quality not quantity people.

  3. So is Blackshorts a thing? I’d never heard that term until today.

      It's lo-casual been a thing for a few years. Not a big deal. Just something fun for the VB team, and a nod to the great Husker football teams of the past.

      The volleyball program can do whatever they want and I’ll buy into. 

    3. Red Five

      Agree @Savage Husker.  If anything, the football program needs to be copying volleyball stuff.

  4. A video ad on mobile that covers 20% of my screen.  Awesome

      For a low yearly fee, you too can get a useable website again.

      Still not usable if the post/page count stays as low as it is. 

  5. I AM SEEING AN ADD FOR A CROSS PROMOTION OF CU AND JERSEY MIKES SUBS ON A NEBRASKA MESSAGE BOARD.  THE ADD ALGORITHM NEEDS TO GET SMARTER.

      i THOUGHT THAT MIGHT BE THE CASE BUT CAPS LOCK FRIDAY MADE IT DIFFICULT TO TELL.

  6. Jalen Hurts wearing red socks/shoes while every other OU player is wearing white socks/shoes.

    1. jsneb83

      They're not red, they're just spatted with red tape.

    2. Red Five

      Ok, Jalen Hurts is the only OU player with red tape spatted shoes and red socks, every other OU player has white tape spatted shoes and white socks.

      With the performance he is putting on,  he can do whatever he wants. 

       

      I love their offense.

  7. Preseason polls need to go the way of the dodo.  Florida a top 10 team?  LOL

      Spurrier's face after that pick :lol:

      The Spurrier reaction to the interception was awesome.  

    4. ZRod

      ZRod

      Florida looks terrible. Zero discipline. For sure not a top 10 team, probably not top 15.

  8. Is there anything more stoopid than “preseason player of the year” or “preseason all American/all conference” polls?

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Wouldn't preseason player of the year automatically have to be the prior seasons player of the year? And yes it's Stoopid....that player may be out of eligibility.

  9. Heading to Vegas this evening.  Not sure I can buy the Huskers at 20-1.  Seems way overpriced.  But will probably jump on AMagic if he is > 20-1

    1. BIG ERN

      Look for smaller books to take bets on certain games or winning the West. Better value there 

    2. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Might be worth a small wager just cuz but you're right, I don't think the odds or our chances are good enough this year to warrant any serious wager on winning it all. Like Ern said, may be better value in winning the west or the conference but not the whole deal.

  10. My goal for this weekend is to run into Fred while I’m attending various Final Four activities around town.

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      He better be in Lincoln making the team run gassers :lol:

       

      ...and then I might be able to run into him.

      Just let him know you're on HB and that will get you in the door.

  11. Hot Take: We need to leave The Mayor nickname in Ames.

      Meh. I like it and I like how it unnecessarily pisses off the state of iowa, their complex blossoms when it relates to Nebraska. 

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      His nickname may hinge on his, his wife's and his mother's Twitter handles. Until they don't reference the Mayor, we may have to accept it. Personally, I kinda like it and as @Savage Husker said, bonus if it pisses off Iowegans.

      Ahh good points 

  12. Hoiberg a done deal according to local and national media.

      HuskerInLostWages

      @huKSerUSC already looks stupid, 1 for losing their new OC in less than a month and 2nd for the way Swann handled the whole thing by blocking interviews like a scorned ex gf.

    4. Xmas32

      This is an epic case of failing upward.

       

      Agree with @HuskerInLostWages, terrible look for USC.  Nothing like advertising, "Successful coaches need not apply."

  14. Time to start giving ND the UCF treatment when they go undefeated in the regular season

    1. HuskerInLostWages

      HuskerInLostWages

      They should but it will never happen.  Force them into a conference or dont play in the CFP without a conference championship.

  15. Harbaugh to the NFL?

      That would be jacked up if he leaves. He just signed a big class.

    4. krc1995

      krc1995

      Maybe. Either he was completely absorbed in the early signing period or polishing up his resume for the NFL because he certainly was not preparing his team for their bowl game. 

  16. In sports with replay, there needs to be a "clock" on the replay time.  If you can't figure it out w/in 1 or 2 minutes, the video shuts off, and the call stands.  Looking frame by frame at video is just ridiculous.  And I said the same thing on the pinkie touch that helped us win vs Illinois.

  17. Tickets for the game Saturday night are expensive.  Nosebleeds are going for $200 per ticket!

     

    We really want to go, but damn, wasn’t planning on shelling out $500+.

      What’s funny is that I mentioned this dilemma to people at work this morning and only 1 of about 7 knew that the volleyball was actually going on. And the Target Center was less than 5 miles from where we were standing.

    3. teachercd

      teachercd

      Yeah...that is sort of what I thought.  Those tickets are being driven up in price by the VB-Crazies.

    4. Scarlet Overkill

      Some rich booster needs to pony up some tickets and a crap load of busses.

  18. I’m glad Cook took Eichorst’s advice and went to FB practice to watch how Diaco (aka “the best coach at UNL”) conducted things.

      We should be happy that the VB team was immune from the mismanagement that the FB program underwent and has remained successful over the years.

      @4skers89Thats b/c Cook just looked at the Ginger, rolled his eyes, and said f#&% off

  19. These SEC refs have decided there is no such thing as holding in the 4Q.

  20. College football makes no damn sense. Bucky beats NU by 17. NU beats Goldy by  25. Goldy is up on Bucky by 16 in the 4Q.

      Are we just going to forget about NU losing to U of M by 46, then only losing to tOSU by 5, but tOSU hanges 62 on the blue?

    3. VectorVictor

      VectorVictor

      @ZRod no, but OTOH, the team that went to Ann Arbor wasn't the one that played at Columbus, at least from a mental standpoint. 

       

      Or were you trying to turn this thread into a referendum on firing Chinander because of how much we gave up to Michigan? If so, I'm sorry, I've been mostly away the past week or so and I'm not exactly sure where everyone's personal agendas lie now. :dunno

      No, I'm not calling for heads. Just faning the flames of how messed up the B1G and this season are.

      Gave up 334 rushing at 7.8 yards per carry. One dude went 23 for 256.  Wonder how many were off jet sweeps?

  23. I don’t think refs are biased against NU, I just think they are incompetent.

  24. Nebrasketball takin care of business tonight.

  25. I know it was cold, but Lovie wearing 2 stocking hats seemed aggressive.
