Coming from a former running back i hated not getting all the carries in a game... I just wanted to touch the ball as much as possible.. I think its just the mentality a running back has to have.. I started every game but hated to have to come out for rest or any thing... So i am sure it will blow over and its not much for us to worry about!! Willis

I dont care if we have blazing speed in the back feild but we do need to recruit blazing speed at the wideout and secondary spots... If we are gonna compete asgainst the Usc's Florida teams and majority of the power house teams we have to be able to run with them not just over them... Hell ill beat this into the ground Rose Bowl Miami Andre Johnson remember that? We didnt have a guy on Defense that could cover him or their 5th wideout on the team.. Speed kills and is a huge threat we you also have it on offense.. Willis

There is no dout about it that speed kills and we need alot more of it for the team to really Take off.. Thats just my 2cents.. Look at Ohio state when they were down for a little bit what did they do to get back up.. Went to florida and got alot faster. Willis

The Game plan was garbage.. Thats the bottom line... Willis

Yes but they must give it to him more then 9 times.. Thats the only thing i hate about Nebraska football these days they dont know how to let a RB get any kind of confidence.. 3 or 4 carrys here and there is not the way to do it.. Willis

I like Jim Rome!!!!! Willis

Oh trust me i have no dout in my mind that we cant or should win this game.. I do agree with the speed factor.. I know this isnt the same team but look how much faster Miami was then we were in the Rose Bowl and it hurt BAD.. Nut i do think we can and should win.. Willis

Come on guys this is one bad to the bone rushing attack.. No where did the Roster of USC running back produce what Bush or White did... I see no reason why our D should have a little fun against them... The only thing i am worried about is our Offense.. If it plays good it will be a fun night.. CAR YDS YPC LONG TD Emmanuel Moody 7 58 8.3 24 1 Chauncey Washington 8 55 6.9 16 0 C.J. Gable 12 51 4.3 11 1 Allen Bradford 5 13 2.6 8 1 Ryan Powdrell 2 9 4.5 5 0 Desmond Reed 4 7 1.8 5 0 John David Booty 3 2 0.7 11 0 Mark Sanchez 1 -3 -3.0 0 0 Totals 42 192 4.6 24 3

Man can some one put a ban on all players talking to the media... I dont think what either of them said was wrong.. Like i stated before if we lse then its more fuel to your fire but if we win then it will be ok.... Willis

I dont care i like it and its part of football.. Any where you go.. If he gets his ass handed to him yall will just say see what i told ya but if he does great then it will be ok.. Willis

I like it!!! If he doesnt think he can beat them then why should he even line up and play the game.. When i went into games i alwys had the mindset that we were going to win and nothing less.... It shouldnt be any other way.. Hell most of the people on the board isnt ven giveing them a chance.. Willis

McCoy is a redshirt freshman.. He was on the sidelines last year during the Rose Bowl... Willis

Woooo F_cking Hooooooo i got me 2 tickets and will be there.. We are going to go to round rock friday and stay some where in the middle friday night.. The Saturday head to the game... Willis

Their Qb is a redshirt freshman... I was honestly surprised by the defenses. I figured that with their losses, OSU would have trouble stopping Texas, and I figured Texas would have more defensive sucsess. If Vince young was there they would have done more to their D-Fense.. Texas is way overated in my book.. I mean look last year and the year before look at the games Texas won because of V.Y. You take him away and they would have lost a few and the Biggest game they won last year.. Willis

lol you took the words out of my mouth!!!! Willis

Yea i have to find 2 , i will have my wife with me.. Willis

I am right there with ya Bro!!! Willis

Damn i live in Baytown,TX and Used to live in Mccook Neb... I am looking for tickets to the A&M game now so hope i find some.... Willis

Updated: Aug. 6, 2006, 9:52 PM ET Beck's whereabouts unknown; Bowman out for yearAssociated Press LINCOLN, Neb. -- Nebraska backup quarterback Harrison Beck was a no-show at practice for the second straight day Sunday, and the Cornhuskers suffered a blow on the injury front with the news that starting cornerback Zackary Bowman is out for the season with a knee injury. "We felt at the time that it happened that it was just a sprained knee. We were disappointed to hear that it could possibly be a ligament, but then, of course, the MRI this morning proved that it was positive and that he will be out for the season." -- Nebraska coach Bill Callahan on Zackary Bowman's injury Coach Bill Callahan said after Sunday's practice in half pads that he had not spoken with Beck since before the sophomore from Clearwater, Fla., skipped Saturday afternoon's workout. Beck's whereabouts weren't known, but his parents said he has contacted them to tell them he's safe. Bowman, who started the last five games in 2005, tore his anterior cruciate ligament Saturday during a one-on-one drill. Callahan said Bowman came down on his leg wrong while defending a corner route. He had a magnetic resonance imaging test Sunday. "We felt at the time that it happened that it was just a sprained knee," Callahan said. "We were disappointed to hear that it could possibly be a ligament, but then, of course, the MRI this morning proved that it was positive and that he will be out for the season." Bowman, a senior from Anchorage, Alaska, transferred from New Mexico Military Institute last year. He made 27 tackles and a team-leading 14 pass breakups and was second on the team with two interceptions. "Just visiting with him he feels that he's going to come back for another year, which is tremendous," Callahan said. "He does have a redshirt, so that's great." Defensive coordinator Kevin Cosgrove said he would call on junior-college transfer Andre Jones to step in for Bowman. Cosgrove said he already has confidence in Jones' abilities in the little he's seen from him through four practices. "He gets better every day," Cosgrove said. "He's a tremendous athlete, and I'm just anxious to watch him progress as camp goes on." On the Beck front, Callahan said he spoke with Beck's stepfather, Dave Bothwell, but nothing was resolved. Beck's mother, Evelyn Beck-Bothwell, told Nebraska media outlets that her son was disappointed with the amount of practice repetitions he received the first two days of preseason camp. Callahan declined to comment on Beck-Bothwell's comments and said his conversation with the stepfather would remain private. "Other than that, Harrison is OK from what I understand, and I'm anxious to see him return, if he comes back," Callahan said. "I'd like to visit with him a little bit, and I look forward to that. I'm hopeful that he makes a decision to come back." Callahan declined to comment on what Beck's status would be with the team if he were to return. "We look at everything on a case-by-case basis," Callahan said. "That's up to Harrison. It's Harrison's choice and decision and his desire in terms of what he wants to do with his career."

Hey maybe thats a good sigh to come.. I always thought Crouch's helmet looked funny on his head!! Willis

When will Purify and Wilson be there??? Willis

You guys will also think i am crazy on this one but i wish they would have kept Green at RB... I think he could have been some thing.. Willis

i know it just seemed like there were times that the ball should have been in Ross's hands and they were not.. Willis

First off he is gonna have to not abandon the run like he did way to much this year.. Ross should have had a lot more carries than he had... Willis

I am gonna add to this.. Ifeel there is no reason why we can win.. They as the coachs and players need to be consistant is the major key!! Beating Um and losing to KU aint gonna get it done.. Willis
