I guess this is a credit to Nebraska as well as the rest of the Big XII.
Ivan Maisel's 3 point Stance
Thursday, July 27
1. Neither Florida nor Alabama wants to move its Sept. 2 night game to the 12:30 p.m. slot for the SEC's regionally televised games. Why? It's kind of hot right around then. But neither the conference nor the network plans on showing a test pattern that afternoon. So which school blinks?
2. Iowa State center Scott Stephenson transferred from Minnesota. Stephenson said Big 12 football is faster than the Big Ten, and the stadiums louder. "At Nebraska, I couldn't hear my guards making calls," he said. "I couldn't hear (quarterback) Bret (Meyer)." Maybe that's a commentary on Gopher fans.
3. We lined up three deep around Adrian Peterson on Wednesday, and the Oklahoma junior is clearly more relaxed around the media than he was as a freshman. Peterson revealed that his goal for this season is 2,200 yards, but he wouldn't declare himself the Heisman favorite. He has figured out that just because the writers ask a stupid question doesn't mean he has to answer it.
