      WHY THE HELL IS A D-1 TEAM PLAYING A D-3 TEAM?

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      and why is the D-1 team giving up 61 points to them?

  2. Compared to the rest of our schedule, how tough of an opponent do think Colorado was?

      I would argue that Colorado has the 2nd best QB we will see all season behind what Haskins has done vs. very pedestrian competition early. Team wise I would put them behind OSU, Wiscy, and Michigan for sure. After that it's most likely a toss up.

      I would put Colorado tied with Northwestern, behind Wisconsin, Iowa and the Huskers in the West (alone).  If our QB doesn't go down we capitalize on the lead and finish them off with a sound victory.  They are an upcoming team, with some pretty good talent.  Overall, they are basically a 6-6 squad that now has momentum while fooling a bunch of people's opinions obviously. 

       

      Also, their secondary could have been picked on a lot more than it was and exposed for a few more touchdowns, but whatever.

  10. I’m pretty sure that BTN is now available on Comcast/Xfinity nationwide once again. I just added back the sports & entertainment package and it is working at my house.

      Sounds like everything is good right away for states with Big Ten schools. A little less clear on exactly how long it will be before Comcast begins carrying BTN in non-B1G school areas but says it will be happening soon.

      @knapplc that'll never work, it makes too much sense.:lol:

      But I'll suggest she do that. If I know her, she'll just walk over and see if they let her in. Might be easiest anyway, she's in Schramm so it's only a 5 minute walk to Devaney.

    4. knapplc

      knapplc

      Have her get there early. Student seats are close to the court but there aren't many of them.

  12. Are the Haymarket parking garages a good place to park on game day? What time in the morning (2:30 game) would you have to get there to get a spot?

      Use this website to preorder your parking pass for a downtown/haymarket garage so you don't get left out not getting there fast enough... https://www.lincoln.ne.gov/aspx/city/eventprk/default.aspx?v=1

    3. Red Five

      Also, rates are "jacked" by Lincoln standards - $15-$25.  But that is cheap by big city standards.

    4. Enhance

      Enhance

      @JJ Husker I'm almost positive all downtown garages have fixed rates for gamedays and nowadays that's probably in the realm of $20. Even if you get lucky with a metered spot on O Street or something, you're technically supposed to go pay for a window cling that's like $10.

  13. How is Buzzard Billy's in the Haymarket area?  Thinking I'll get my crawfish on tomorrow night

      Well, I thought BB’s was great. Liked the atmosphere, they had a good beer selection (had Kinkaider Devils Gap Jalapeño Ale) and my meal was excellent. I went with the crawfish platter (Etouffee and fried tails) and fried gator appetizer. My fave was the Crawfish Etouffee and rice. My wife and daughter really liked their meals also. Wanted to round it out with Bananas Foster but couldn’t talk anybody into splitting it with me. 

       

      Earlier in the day we had lunch at Mellow Mushroom. Was very happy with that too. Their lunch special, $6.99, is a steal. Had half order of wings and a bowl of mushroom soup. It was a pick two deal, also could’ve gone with a salad or hoagie or slice of pizza. Maybe the best value, least costly meal I’ve seen in a long time.

      @teachercd No. We were pretty occupied all day. Plus my old frat (Kappa Sigma) doesn’t exist as I remember it anymore. They got their charter pulled shortly after I left and lost the house. They may have made a comeback, colony or something, but I don’t think they have an actual house on campus right now.

      I don't get it. I don't ever follow those links or look at the emails or really do anything at all to precipitate getting them but I sure do get a lot of them. The other biggy is apparently lots of people are concerned with how fast they get an erection. They're always promising some fix to get you there sooner. Are people really interested in speeding up that process? What am I missing?

      I'm making some guesses here but maybe the Riley era threw you into a funk and things weren't all they should be in the bedroom dept. Make sure your wife didn't sign you up :lol:  If she did, explain to her that the Frost era has begun and everything will be alright.

  20. Small world story...

    just found out that a couple we’ve known fairly well for well over twenty years, the lady’s cousin was Brook Berringer’s fiancé. I always thought they were strictly Colorado folks but they knew all about it and actually stopped at the stadium a couple years ago just to see Brook’s statue.

      I road with my female Chinese friend once.

      Let's just say she fit the stereotype and I will try to avoid ever doing it again. In her (and probably others') defense, she had only started driving a year before that. But she told me she had to take the driving test 3 times.

      I wasn't commenting so much on that type of planning. I'm not real big on planning ahead for my personal time either....unless it's something that is vital. I've just had a bunch of customers lately that request things they have obviously known they will need for a long time and they want us to sh#t it out in a day or two and it's not the types of things that usually get done within a month let alone in a day. Gettin' kind of annoying.

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Example...one of them is building a chain coffee shop and it's well along the way but they just now are asking for custom designed and built decorative awning deals that need to be powder coated......they want them now but out of the goodness of their heart said they could wait up to two weeks. WTF, lead time for the painting alone is typically two weeks. More of 6-8 week type project. It isn't just them though, seems everyone has severely shortened expectations. I laughed and told them to let me know if they find anyone that can do it within a month because I might have a bunch of work for them.
