Cornhole

Not sure if that's sarcasm, but if not aren't they talking about their finish in the conference not record We are playing 12 conference games? EDIT.....oh...you're saying they will finish 3rd in the conference and us 5th??? Then what is the 6 and 7 respectively? I'm clearly confused. It means the bowl will pick one ACC team that finished between third and sixth in the conference and one B1G team that finished between fifth and seventh in the conference.

Where are you hearing that June 18th visit? https://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/comments/6fg2as/4_2019_qb_grant_gunnell_commits_to_texas_am/dihwb61/

We could hire this guy ^ to be Herbie. He could powerbomb the sh!t out of the other team's mascot before each game.

Maybe Coach Riley should give him a look? I've heard good things. http://www.goducks.com/coaches.aspx?rc=1078

When did Brown get concussed? During a kickoff against Minnesota?

I thought that was the story but according to Sean Callahan last week you have to show that you've missed TWO seasons due to injury to get a medical hardship. That's incorrect. Foster could still play and be eligible for the redshirt. http://www.fromtherumbleseat.com/georgia-tech-football/2015/10/7/9457847/football-the-medical-redshirt-explained The article also says this: Can this get a player a sixth season of eligibility?A player who has already had a redshirt season and then qualifies for a medical redshirt in a subsequent season can be approved for a sixth year of eligibility. However, those cases are tougher to win, as the player is supposed to have missed two seasons for "circumstances beyond their control", where taking a redshirt as a true freshman would not typically meet that criteria. Foster already redshirted as freshman. Also, his injury clearly isn't season-ending if he's coming back, so I don't see how he would qualify.

This is purely anecdotal, but I was knocked unconscious in a similar way and was cleared to practice/compete 72 hours later. Although there's probably a much higher level of scrutiny now when it comes to post-concussion clearances, and doctors are probably much more cautious now versus then, I wouldn't be shocked if he played on Saturday.

Don't forget about Pitt! LINK lulz Ahahahahahahahahahaha! Yes!

You don't stick out if you're really hammered and have on some red. They think you're one of them.

I'd have to see where you get this. Making terroristic threats or inciting riots are the only two "speech crimes" of which I am aware. I just looked up some Supreme Court cases before this post, but feel free to double check. "It requires specificity, it requires intent, and it requires a sense of imminence." is how one law professor makes the distinction. Again, can't we just get football with our football? If not, then I guess the floodgates are opened. 28-311.01. Terroristic threats; penalty.(1) A person commits terroristic threats if he or she threatens to commit any crime of violence: (a) With the intent to terrorize another; (b) With the intent of causing the evacuation of a building, place of assembly, or facility of public transportation; or © In reckless disregard of the risk of causing such terror or evacuation. (2) Terroristic threats is a Class IIIA felony. http://nebraskalegislature.gov/laws/statutes.php?statute=28-311.01 In State v. Schmailzl, supra, we stated that § 28-311.01(1)(a) prohibits a threat to commit a violent crime when the threat is made with the intention of causing "a state of intense fear in another." State v. Schmailzl, 243 Neb. at 741, 502 N.W.2d at 467. In the same opinion, we also equated the intent to terrorize another with the "production of anxiety in another." Id. at 742, 502 N.W.2d at 468. Thus, the intent to terrorize another is an intent to produce intense fear or anxiety in another. However, a critical feature of the statute for purposes of our analysis here is that it merely requires the intent to terrorize another. It does not require that the recipient of the threat be actually terrorized, and it does not require an intent to execute the threats made. See State v. Saltzman, 235 Neb. 964, 458 N.W.2d 239 (1990). State v. Smith, 267 Neb. 917, 678 N.W.2d 733 (2004). One party is making a peaceful protest for an injustice they sense, hurting no one. The other is trying to chill the speech of the former through threats of violence. Whether you agree or disagree with MRI's actions, it's clear that the acts of those making threats should be thoroughly deplored.

I'm not sure who is who.

That's what I use too. I used to have problems falling asleep after studying or writing papers late into the night and I think it helped. Mav posted something earlier about how one of the first things Coach Riley asked Bill Devany to do was to figure out ways to get the players less lethargic during 11 am games. I'm wondering if this is something he came up with.

It's supposed to increase melatonin if I'm not mistaken. I have an app on my laptop that does something similar. Helps your body fall asleep by preventing your body from confusing the light from your computer, smartphone, etc. as daylight.

This season is going to be a s#!t show.

We've been through this before. I take the time to go back and find the posts where you say exactly what I've claimed, then you find something irrelevant and distracting to say. Let's save us both the time. If you're actually hanging your hat on a poster or two suggesting a 7-5 season might not be so bad....whatever. Like this? The top 20% of the 128 FBS teams is a #26 ranking. During the past several years, the 25th team in the nation (AP poll) has finished with an average of a 9-4 record. So, yes, I stick to the contention that this team should finish no worse than the top 20% of CFB this year against this schedule. I also think that it has the POTENTIAL to have an even better record (i.e., 11-2 or better) if it can beat all the teams it "should" beat and one or two that it "shouldn't." Do you even disagree with me? Or do you just not like that I don't have a strong faith in a .500 staff with 0 championships suddenly "figuring it out"? I agree that the team should go 9-4 and finish ranked around 25. I don't agree that this team is top 13 in talent and should finish in the top 13. You stated above that this 2017 class should end up where Nebraska has the past few years: somewhere between 20-25. I think that's probably a fair assessment of where the talent ranks right now, but that's just my opinion. I don't agree that there are only two teams we "shouldn't" beat (i.e., I think there will be more than two games where we aren't favored). However, it's hard to say now because we're simply guessing as to how good Oregon, Iowa and Wisconsin are compared to Nebraska. I'm not bitter about your lack of faith in this coaching staff, and I'm not going to argue that they're going to figure it out this year, because I don't know. Our biggest disconnect is regarding talent. Just my two cents. Regardless, I'm excited for the projections to stop and for the playing to begin.

I'm guessing FCS games skew the stats.

What teams do you think we beat and lose to this year?

I think that the 31 million number we keep hearing about is only first tier money, and doesn't include BTN revenue. I think it was first and second tier (FOX and ESPN) but you're correct that it did not included BTN and other conference revenue (bowls, playoffs, etc.). Right, first and second tier and not BTN money. But BTN only paid out $1mm per school, right? I'm not sure how much the conference brings in for other TV revenue, but I'm assuming it is a small amount relative to the first, second and third tier rights. $1 M&Ms??? Is that for one or one bag? Dad...stop.

Big 12 and SEC schools are already getting $30mm+ for TV. Texas is getting approximately $45mm. B1G schools are not going to be making substantially more than other Big 12 and SEC schools.

Is stating a fact that he has 1 P5 offer dismissive? (And that offer is at a different position than we were looking at him?). Yes. Yes it is. When someone says "who cares if we don't recruit xyz player because he only has an offer from a 'lesser' school" that is exactly the dismissive attitude that demonstrates a lack of understanding around how real world recruiting works. Probably 2/3 of the NE kids who played during the championship years wouldn't have been recruited by the "powerhouses" because they wouldn't have even been on those schools radars due to location. Probably true, but a lot of those guys walked on. Scott Shanle comes to mind. Recruiting has changed a lot since then with Hudl, camps, etc. Top programs will notice if you're legit in this day and age.

The $5 backrest/cushion rental solves a lot of problems as far as uncomfortable seating goes.

He did.
