Bob bought a top of the line car. The car is under warranty for 3 years or 36,000 miles. The quality of the line of automobile has been proven by other owners. Bob parks his car outside because his garage is completely disorganized. Birds in the tree s#!t on the car. Bob is angry, so he buys a canvas cover for the car. A nasty windstorm blows the cover off of the car and destroys the cover. The next morning, a larger group of birds s#!t on the car again. Bob loves driving the car, and sees its value, so he buys the extended warranty. Bob buys a much nicer, metal framed canvas cover. A F1 tornado hits and destroys the canvas cover and a tree falls behind the car. Bob can’t drive the car because the tree needs to be removed by the city. Bob moves the tree himself, just enough to drive a couple times to the store. He parks, and twice as many birds s#!t on the car. The car is a mess, but Bob knows he’s got something great, that many others would take in a second. Bob realizes he must clean up the garage to make room for the car. During this time, Bob’s drunk wife Karen stumbles and falls into the car and dents it. Bob divorces Karen. 5 times as many birds s#!t on the car. The car is cosmetically a mess, however it’s still a quality car, and is proving to get better as he breaks the engine in after 4000 miles. Bob cleans up the car, and cleans up the garage. Bob see’s the city employees outside and let’s them know he moved the tree. The city investigates to see if they should fine him. 10 times as many birds s#!t on the car as Bob pulls it into the garage for the first time. The car is still a quality car, it’s just a bit messy. Bob’s new wife, Melissa likes the car, but would like it cleaned up. Bob=NU Car = Frost’s program Birds = irritating fans Garage = Safe place to keep program canvas = first recruiting class windstorm = transfer portal canvas with metal frame = second recruiting class F1 tornado = world wide pandemic City = NCAA Karen = Moos Melissa = Alberts Sometimes things are messier than we had hoped for!!! There is still a quality car in the garage!!! Why are we yelling?

You’ve been out since May, so I thought I’d let you know that sexual assault isn’t a NCAA violation anymore.

This is the dumbest investigation of all time. Hit the panic button!!!! Wait… false alarm. This was as dumb as the Dan Lusk news.

I couldn’t sleep last night because I was so excited to see what the announcement was. This is embarrassing. It’s like a 20 year old kid trying to sue his parents, that he still lives with, for not buying tickets to all three nights of Justin Bieber playing the Pepsi Center. Personally, I couldn’t be more disgusted with this announcement. This will accomplish nothing. Kevin Warren isn’t losing his job over this. However, Nebraska will be held accountable on the field. Typical lawyer move. Eat a shoe, Dan.

To go from below the 35th to above the 60th percentile rank in a highly contested college sport in 4 years is a great indication of improvement. If that continues a similar trend, we should see a fairly dominate offensive line this year (70th-75th) and top 25 offensive line in the country next year. 80th-85th percentile rank. Granted, it gets harder to improve in rank, and remain that high performing once you get to that 80th percentile. This article actually gives me some hope!

Flushtradamus prediction: They got beer in the stadium!

Exactly what I was thinking!

The fact that Tanner Morgan is this high tells me one of two things: 1. The B1G is not as good as any of us thinks it is 2. The author of the is article is a gopher fan. Flushtradamus prediction: Tanner Morgan will finish in the bottom half of the country this year in multiple QB related measures.

You’re right, I’m sorry. Sometimes it’s fun to poke the bear. I’ve rarely met someone as self absorbed and ignorant, so curiosity gets the best of me. I should just let the car alarm go off in the night.

My mistake was a simple oversight, and I owned up to it. I didn’t attempt to hide it, and I’m not at all embarrassed by it. I make plenty of grammatical errors, but it doesn’t render my posts unreadable. More importantly, I didn’t complain that someone held me accountable. You’ve illustrated on multiple occasions that you will complain that you’re being held to a standard, rather than learning from your mistake(s). “Classic…” Your mistakes are a clear indication of your lack of attention to detail and understanding of basic grammatical concepts. Similarly, you’ve shown that you lack a basic understanding of statistics and inferential statistical analysis. Based on simple data collection from this site, we can infer that the majority of us find your comments and “insights” comical. In fact, I look forward to reading your next predictable and unoriginal rant about Kevin Warren. Based on last week’s cadence of posts, you’re overdue! Is that because your uncle needed your help? Dang it! I’ve managed to drop my mic again.

Good catch! I’ll leave the unedited mistake up there.

Can we settle the argument about grammar? Grammar is important. Capitol letters are the difference between “helping your Uncle Jack off a horse” and “helping your uncle jack off a horse.” However, there is one caveat; Nebraska55fan doesn’t have an Uncle Jack. Therefore, he can only help his uncle. This is why he can be easily upset by the grammar police. He’s at a significant disadvantage. To make matters worse, he’s dropped his mic and he’s been waiting for a response to a pointless argument for a long time. Oh shoot, I’ve appeared to have dropped my mic as well.

I’m dying right now. Hahahaha!

Since everyone is giving their lackluster predictions, I guess it’s time for the Flushtradamus Prophecies: 1. We’re going to see the BIG XII dissolve by February. The first reply to this post will be a cease and desist letter from Bob “none of my teams will see a” Bowlsby’s lawyer. 2. The ACC, with its 14 teams, will joineth the SEC to create the first mega league in college athletics. It will be renamed the “Sports & Education Confederation (sponsored by ESPN, all rights reserved)” and will go by the moniker “SEC”. The SEC will be governed by Gregory Sankey and the League of Shadows. 3. The Big Ten and Pac12 will wait 3 years to see what shakes out with the 12 team SEC playoff. Will their champion get an invite to compete? Martinique will be recognized by FIFA before that happens. The Rose Bowl championship game (sponsored by ESPN, all rights reserved), will feature the top two teams from the Big Ten and Pac 12, as picked by a committee of former OSU and USC alumni. 4. Kevin Warren will be attacked by Nebraskafan55 within the next 7 posts. 5. Coach Scott Frost will believe that Nebraska had its best fall camp since his arrival. 6. The Kansas Jayhawks football program will lose to most schools in the AAC upon joining. Oklahoma State will always fall short to Memphis, and never make the AAC championship. 7. The Helena Handbaskets will win their first Longaberger Trophy in 109 years.

I’m all for a 64 team super league, not a 20 team SEC super league. The power 5 needs to breakaway and set up its own league. They need to allow for relegation and promotion from the league. Nebraska would initially be in, but if they finished last in that 64 team league, they should be relegated. It would bring back excitement to a currently broken, NCAA college system.

I just posted about this in another thread. A recent SI article said there are some administrators who believe a super league, similar to the premier league in soccer, is the right choice. If they offer relegation… I’m 100% for it. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.si.com/.amp/college/2021/07/19/ncaa-restructuring-greg-sankey-sec-mark-emmert

Hypothetically driven post - If the SEC locks down OU/Texas (which seems inevitable now), their next step could be even more disastrous for college football as we know it. SEC Commissioner, Greg Sankey, has recently been attacking the NCAA. The NCAA is archaic, and we all know that. They need to change and adapt, but have refused to. What happens when the SEC decides they have enough big names and draw to create their own system, and their own college football conference national champion? You may laugh, but what’s there to stop them? They clearly only care about money and power. This would be the ultimate power move. As the NCAA’s power is quickly losing its hold, the SEC could step in to fill that void for their own teams. Could this lead to other schools leaving to join SEC? Will this lead to a split system where the remainder of the country recognizes its own national champion? This may not be as far fetched as you’d think. Not hypocritical - Here is a quote from the article: “Some administrators believe it is a sweeping realignment, where the top football powers create a super league most similar to the Premier League in soccer.” https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.si.com/.amp/college/2021/07/19/ncaa-restructuring-greg-sankey-sec-mark-emmert

Is there a source for this bolded statement? If this were remotely true, and leaked, it would be all over the news right now. I’ve searched quite a bit this morning and can’t find a thing that says this. I could be missing something in my search, so a source is highly recommended.

Clemson knows it’s in trouble. Good article below. This makes me wonder if the SEC reaching out to OSU, Michigan, FSU and Clemson has some fire to the smoke? Think about them joining a super conference and the TV deal that could come from that? https://www.google.com/amp/s/rubbingtherock.com/2021/07/23/clemson-football-dangerous-spot-acc/amp/

This is getting out of hand. I love it! Hahahahahahahaahaha
