I believe that. Vikings fans are the most miserable people on Twitter/X. It's either football trauma or 7 months of winter. Maybe both. That and was darn lucky on a fumbled snap.

I don't really understand it either other than Yormark likes Gonzaga and he wants to bid out the football and basketball separately. Last I had read quite a few Big XII schools were pretty lukewarm on the idea of adding Gonzaga.

I wouldn't be surprised if Chadwell ends up in Starkville at Mississippi State.

I think it also bears out how those flashy Oregon speed and tempo teams under Chip Kelly ran into big physical SEC DL and were stopped.

Al Golden? If he is on the list a guy like Dan Mullen should be. IMO White is a tertiary candidate at this time. He has another good year and then it's time to worry. The former Mizzou coach, turned UNLV reclamation candidate Odom will be a hot commodity if he can duplicate this season another year. Their OC does a lot of creative things with the run game.

This subject is beating a dead horse. I was hoping it would be gone for good. A Nebraska return to the Big XII is never happening. Those days have come and gone and lots of teams have moved on since then. The only thing the Big XII has over the Big Ten is more road games to drive to. That's it. The Big Ten is superior in every other category or metric you want to use. In fact, if the choice for some reason in a hypothetical where the Big Ten wasn't available and Nebraska is asked to join the SEC or the Big XII I would choose the SEC. Big XII is old news like Walter Cronkite and Dan Rather.

Yep, maybe a healthy raise keeps him around a bit longer but he will get an opportunity somewhere soon, much like Ryan Walters did.

I was always partial to this due to a lot of energy.....

Assuming 50% of the crowd is Colorado fans. I still expect a lot of red in the stands.

USC's defense is crap. I would put them on upset watch vs. Colorado. USC might be favored but it could be a close game if both teams are healthy.

Yep, he is there to recruit. If he becomes the Nebraska Tosh Lupoi in that regard, I'd be fine with that. How is Garrett's video game skills?

I hope not as that will destroy any opportunity for any out of conference matchup. However I suppose if it's down to 3 conferences it might not matter much. Plus SEC needs to go to 9 first.

Yep, it's even more illogical with Gaylord Perry and Ty Cobb in there. Plus Barry along with Roger are both HOFers even before the PED talk but they also weren't overly accommodating with the media which I believe is part of ir. Baseball HOF voters are arrogant, attention seeking old-timers with an axe to grind a lot of the time. They have been that way for many years. The no one can be unanimous or he shouldn't get in on the first try b.s. are other examples.

I'd prefer Miami with Florida State instead of Clemson. Built in rivalry with those two schools, excellent academic school, and history with many schools in the Big Ten like Nebraska, Ohio State, and Penn State. Clemson and holy roller Dabo scream SEC culture to me.

With the exception of the Denny's Early Bird Special and Wheel of Fortune on at 6:30 pm.

I like the on ramps for merging on to Iowa interstates that are longer than Nebraska's. Also Iowa has remodeled their rest areas since the 1980's which makes that experience more pleasant to deal with. If you travel around the country you realize Nebraska interstate rest areas are a disgrace. IMO Iowa is a rival due to proximity and shared culture. If Nebraska could protect three "rivals" I would be for Iowa, UCLA, and Miami if/when they leave the ACC for the Big Ten.

That makes me nervous that Big Ten brass would give away playoff home games in the first round because of possible cold weather. That kind of cowardice needs to be called out.

I'd prefer FSU and Miami. Florida recruiting ties in a state rapidly growing in population. I thought the big UW and UO support was from Commish Warren and since he is no longer at the helm in the Big Ten, the push isn't there.

This is a giant nothing burger. People who are successful in that arena tend to be highly competitive. I remember all the Larry Bird and Michael Jordan trash talk as a youth. Heck this week I got a great laugh as Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce said that her 6-year old son fell down in a race and was disappointed that her husband didn't medal in the parent's race at her son's school so she took it upon herself to dust every other parent in a race and redeem the Pryce family name. Trust that they were all competing for second as she wanted the family to have a gold medal.

Plus the schools don't sit in population centers. You got Vandy in Nashville and UGA a stone's throw from Atlanta. SEC is a lot more rural college towns than people see on TV. They can't hardly wait to show a cornfield when talking about Lincoln or Omaha. Texas will certainly help that.

I'd take 5 years of Rick Pitino but he's probably already making plans for St. John's

Yep, winning at Carver-Hawkeye Arena is a tall order. Look at what Michigan State shot from the field and the FT line and still lost.

My biggest what if is T.O. doesn't push WCO Shawn Watson and Ted Gilmore on Pelini's staff and he is able to work towards the spread offense he wanted to earlier. If the '09 offense is even average with an elite #1 ranked defense in several categories, that team likely only loses one game in the regular season to the late Mike Leach, who owned Bo Pelini. The trajectory and perception of the program changes completely at 11-1.

I still believe if Mizzou was offered a Big Ten invite they would jump ship. The only SEC member I think that would do so. I wonder if the SEC or Big Ten will be the first conference to challenge the ACC GOR?

It should have been Ohio State vs. TCU. Marvin Harrison Jr. was roasting Kelee Ringo. Luck followed UGA with the injury and FG miss
