Wunderkind

On3 hasn't been very impressive up to this point. Hopefully they get better.

But will we have legit targets for him next yr..??  

1. Develop the young wr's. There's a lot of talent there.

2. Get Fleming

3. The Indiana WR looks intriguing

4. Another portal wr? Especially if we add a solid Transfer QB then it is more likely to grab a solid Transfer WR.

We have some very athletic wr's, but they are young and need some time to develop. There's just not much experience there. Question is can we develop those WRs because that was a huge issue with the previous staff.

The QBs limit what we can do. We are not having much success on any deep passes. 

That being said I have been disappointed in Satts play calling. I would have expected more passes to the TEs, we have some good ones. Also thought we would have seen more designed plays for Bonner who can create favorable match ups. Outside of a few plays I don't remember seeing much creativity, but that could be due to personnel. 

Left at half. Barta had 3 catches for about 150 yards and 2 TDs already. Also two pass breakups in the end zone on defense, one of which was nearly intercepted. 

70 yard TD for Barta. Just blew by the CB and the safety.

Watching Barta play tonight. We'll see how he does.

MGM you can do $1. Some things they will let you do down to .50¢. I do that quite often for 9+ team parlays on hockey. Invariably lose 1 game   But even a 10 team parlay doesn’t approach +25000 odds. Betting on CU to win it all next year is more sure to burn your money than lighter fluid and a match. I mean their o/u win total for the year is 3.5

I would bet the under.

We aren't beating Minnesota on the road in the first game.  I'll be impressed if we even beat CU to not start 0-2. CU will lose to TCU on the road, then we are the first home game for Prime Time in Boulder. It'll be a zoo, probably a night game, the place will be rocking and I could see us losing that also.

If we lose to the cluster f*&# that is Colorado this is going to be a long sad year. I don't see us beating Minnesota though.

Average of 14?  Nebraska '95 won by an average of almost 40 with the worst being Washington State.  The game was 35-14 until a late score by Wazzu.

 

No one in recent history has touched that dominance.  '01 Miami had two close calls.  I thought '05 USC was better than '04, and '05 couldn't get past Vince Young.  '19 
LSU couldn't stop a Middle School team, and '20 Bama was a weird COV year where I'm not sure they beat Burrow's '19 squad.

 

Give me '95 NU.

 

Fun fact, twice in the 90's the team NU destroyed to win an NC that team went on, they following year, to win the NC ('96 UF, '98 UT).  Nebraska demolished very, very legitimate teams.  

The 2001 Miami team was probably more talented than Nebraska, but they weren't a better team. A lot of their players did well in the pro's so people confuse talent level with being the best team. However, they had some big drawbacks versus the 95 Huskers. The most important was coaching, Osborne vs Coker. Also, even with all that talent their QB wasn't great. He played well, but considering the talent level of the 2001 Hurricanes he wasn't that dynamic. I would argue that Miami did not live up to it's talent level, which is why they almost lost two games. The Huskers were very talented too, but we're coached better which is why they blew everyone out.

I must admit this one gets me a little excited. Needed a good transfer Center.

This has to be one of my favorite classes of recent. If we get Lenhardt and Nation as well, it’s even better. Consider we have some more transfers coming as well. This class may not have the stars of past ones, but this seems like a very impressive group of athletes. And more importantly, what Rhule wants in his system. I meant to think he put it together in such a short amount of time. I’m excited what can happen if we start winning on the field and once he has his recruiting machine running hard.

There's a lot of speed demons and athletes coming in. Key is development which Rhule is known for. Might be a couple years but I like who he picked up so far.

And if they included transfers we would have a Chief as well. We are just creaming the competition.

Oakland, NE. Haven't heard about that town in a while. I actually partied there once 15-20 years ago. Cool to see a young man get a shot from that small town. 

I hadn't watched Sims play until after the commitment. Much better than I thought he would be. Glad he's coming.

Great point totally agree. They have brought alot of guys in a very short amount of time.  Those coaches are putting in work to improve the program just would like to see more lineman being added.

I really like the athletes we have been adding. A lot of speed coming on board. I know there are a few OL/DL we have been going after. Hopefully we can land a few of them. 

Dude is fun to watch!

Flare and sizzle last if there is substance. If prime gets them to a bowl game they will be buzzing. 

Lots of flare, substance is the big question mark.

Ive used Sling, YoutubeTv and Hulu and I think youtube is the one id use over the other 2. Sling has a bad UI and is a little more glitchy and Hulu wont let you fast forward through the commercials on stuff you have recorded so thats unbelievably annoying. 

I've used a few different services to stream football, but was looking at different options this year. After doing a little research I decided to use YouTube TV again. Cost, channels, and the functionality of the DVR are why I am staying with YouTube TV. 

Rhamir sounds like he's in position to get a lot of snaps. Whip really likes his receiving abilities.

I definitely support them suing. Im just bitter.  Now i have two kids and no free time to play video games.  (Unless they make it for the switch and i absolutely wreck my son in it)

I've missed NCAA Football, can't wait to play it again.

Who had the better coaching staff? Not just about players, but who's leading them matters.

I remember people on here saying exactly that when Texas and Oklahoma announced that they were joining the SEC, calling Warren an idiot because the Big Ten wasn't expanding. I said at the time that there wasn't much need for the Big Ten to rush, and that taking the top of the PAC was the probably most viable option. Although I predicted that it would be the top four teams, not two.

We still might get all 4, so you may still be right.
