NJ currently requires travelers from a number of states including Nebraska to quarantine 14 days upon arrival, so how are we going to play a game at Rutgers?

Can we put this misinformation to rest already?

It's advisable to quarantine, not required. I don't think any state has made it a law requiring it, IMO, something about civil rights and the pandemic is not as life-threatening as news organizations and social media is making it out to be. 

From the NJ site

https://covid19.nj.gov/faqs/nj-information/travel-information/which-states-are-on-the-travel-advisory-list-are-there-travel-restrictions-to-or-from-new-jersey

(underlines are my doing):

New Jersey welcomes travel to and from our state.

However, to save lives and prevent the spread of COVID-19, the State has issued an incoming travel advisory that all individuals entering New Jersey from states with a significant spread of COVID-19 should quarantine for 14-days after leaving that state.

Under the 14-day quarantine travel advisory announced by the Governors of New Jersey, New York and Connecticut, individuals traveling to or returning to New Jersey from states with increasing rates of COVID-19 are advised to self-quarantine for 14 days. This includes travel by train, bus, car, plane and any other method of transportation.

Rutgers is reporting 26 players testing positive.  For you guys with past Huskers seasons on DVD, fire 'em up.  That's going to be the only games you see this season.

My first thought was let them play foosball, but that does require 4, 2 from each team, to be in close proximity of each other.

So, let them go bowling.  Each player gets his own lane, one team on the left lanes, other team on the right lanes.  Cheerleaders can be cheering in the back. 

They could show old Wide World of Sports (ABC anyway), such as Curt Gowdy fishing. I miss those. Or are those on some fishing channel? (since I no longer have cable, I don't get that)

There's probably many one or few people sports still going on, those that normally appear on ESPN9000.

Candidly, Wisconsin is not your rival and it has nothing to do with H2H results.  Posted in another thread several months ago, so I'll copy and paste below...

The rivalry with Minnesota in all things became apparent when two game players (board games, mostly war games) that came to my house to play were from Wisconsin and hated everything related to Minnesota. One even named his daughter Madison, which was acceptable to the wife (now ex-wife) and she learned later why (the city).  They were quite the cheeseheads. 

They even make pains to protect the BB Wisconsin while playing WW2 games; and of course any other Japanese players will try to sink it first for morale purposes (despite carriers being the prime target most of the time).   

(silly idea because I'm up late and can't get to sleep)

Let's shorten the season and extend the playoff season (isn't this what hockey did?).

10 game season:

play each team in own division twice (6),

play one team of each other division (3),

play one team in the other conference (1).

This determines seeding for the double-elimination every-team-gets-in playoffs.  Each team gets two weeks between playoff games for the first few rounds to allow for injury recovery; and that allows more games to be televised nationally.

I think I'll turn in now and sleep on it (yeah, right).

In other funny news (but not worth starting a new thread over), it’s being reported here in Colorado tonight that Mel Tucker has taken the MSU HC job. The CU fan base is freaking out on Twitter. It’s worth a laugh...

That wasn't much different than the things I've read here.

Fans are pretty much the same everywhere, except of course, ours are better.

People love to blame offensive coaching rather than give credit to defensive execution. 

I see that on this board. Always blame the Huskers for their woes, but never attribute some of it to the other team doing well or adjusting (besides coaching adjustments which does get mentioned). Sometimes the other team does actually perform better than ours.

What the hell is cream cheese jalapeño burger?

 

these things tend to look totally made up. 

They are. I live in Florida (15 mins from the stadium even), shrimp isn't even close. 

I'll be working at my game store, most likely playing Dungeons & Dragons (yes, I'm a nerd) in the afternoon and I don't know what game I'll be playing that evening (that group plays something different every other week). Perhaps the game will be on the TV we have hanging on the wall, but probably be silenced until the commercials come on.

"My kick propelled the team to a 63 game winning streak and 4 national championships, and Coach Frost always said my kick was the play which kick-started (pun intended) the Nebraska program's success under Coach Frost."

That's much better.  If you're going to tell a fishing story, you make it a whopper.

Agree 100%  I thought it was incredible and almost funny how McCallum's immaculate FG defied the laws of science against Northwestern.  However, that same kick showed Frost that he needs to go with another option.  The last FG against Maryland was a great gesture by Frost for getting that kid from Lincoln in the NU history books.  Frost didn't need to do that, but that kid will be able to tell his grandkids, "I kicked a FG for the Nebraska football team", even if that 19 yard kick grows to 45 yards and it being a game-winner, instead of extending the lead to 47.  

You forgot to add: "before NU was great, that kick uplifted the morale of the team and turned it around to win 5 Natties over the next 7 years".    (we can dream, right?)

Harvard and Yale students did a 45 minute on the field protest against climate change(ok?)..lol...I can just imagine the smugness and self righteousness on the field by students and the pure amount of "Dont give a F***!" by everyone else.

 

 

I wonder how many in a few years will be buying over-sized SUVs and designer clothes and furniture no matter how it was made.

Scott is unfortunately thinking this is going well; Chin's a defensive genius

So far Maryland has 0 points.  Genius.

TD.  We'll take it no matter how.

Is this what JV football looks like?

I sense a tone amongst the board today.

 

It's almost an angry negativity. 

 

Angrier, and more negative than usual.

 

 

 We're being cautious.
