I've watched it a bunch of times at full speed at it sounds like contact was made twice with the ball and I agree that it looks like the spin changed after it went by the defenders, so I'm of the opinion that it was kicked and then tipped.

Here is a cut up video I made focusing on the offensive line play in the Illinois game. It is only from the first half, except for a couple of notable plays from the second half.

I expect a more competitive game than the point spread implies. I guess I can see us beating the spread by pulling away in the fourth quarter with the aid of an easy score off a turnover, but I think it will be a contest for three quarters. Thanks for giving your take on your team. I always appreciate that.

As I understand the media coverage, Blades backed away from his commitment and interest in Nebraska even before it was certain he would not qualify academically. He flat out said there was almost no chance he would end up at Nebraska. I thin he and Nebraska have parted ways, which is why there was no attempt to "protect" him at the JUCO.

Seems, like a lot of kids, pretty immature. Blames Nebraska for his failure to qualify? Tons of raw talent but a 50 cent head. Good-bye.

Oh, you know Goodrich this year and McQuitty, from Columbia, last year. Wilson & Bryant the previous years. It isn't just a one-year thing, there has been frustration of the Mizzou fan base for a couple years now. With regards to this year, they get pissed any time the "Missouri 10" as they like to call them have the Huskers in their top 3/5/10 and Mizzou doesn't make the cut. + Davs twins the year before.

Stupid article. Two players get a ticket for pot and that's indicative of some major shift in culture for the worse? Ridiculous pot stirring and click bait.

Well, pot should not be legal. Pot is not currently legal (most places). So don't smoke pot. You follow all laws? Always drive the speed limitn; never have a beer at a tailgate; don't jaywalk?

5 year weighted is less relevant for us, with a year 3 coach, than other teams.

This. I think it was our idea. He had a tweet complaining that fans and reporters complain about loyalty, but "they don't know the half of it." That seems to suggest that not coming to Nebraska is at least not entirely his idea. But who knows, the kid is all over the place, so it is hard to ascribe any logic to what he does...

No chance that Keith Williams is leaving. He's got a criminal court date here in February. Doubt he takes another job and ignores his court case so they can issue a warrant for his arrest. Furthermore, the likely result of his court case is that he is going to be put on probation, in the State of Nebraska, for three or more years. You can apply to have your probation transferred to another state, but it generally you have to serve some of the probation successfully before that would even be considered.

Add Huskers44 to the list of cheaters putting in a vote well after the announcement. This is the second time you've pointed out a "cheater" on the poll.... I don't think anyone cares. Sorry, but there are people that do. Mavric has posted about it many time.

Add Oregon State please so I can change my vote

Yep. Favre has the strong arm and tons of incredible throw only he could make and too many throws he never should have made, but he also did the quickest checkdowns in the NFL. Thousand of Favre's career yards were short checkdowns. If the play wasn't breaking the way he wanted, he had no problem take the 5 yard gain to the wide open RB in the flat. Always wished Tommy would have done the same. Lol. Sam Keller did that and was crucified by this fan base. Unbelievable. Really? Asking honestly. I was maybe 16-17 at the time and didn't follow the program very closely, but was he really "crucified" by Husker fans for checking down to other passing options? No, not really. That's revisionist history.

Yeah, there is something else going on here. Not sure what or on which side, but "far from home" doesn't explain it.

If he is visiting Louisville in January this says something considering Riley's new rule this year that commits can't visit other schools during the month of January. I guess that either means he doesn't intend to sign with Nebraska or the coaches have told him that he doesn't have a guaranteed spot and that's why he is looking around but keeping Nebraska in the picture.

This would not be the worst loss. Has promise, but is very much a project. I think the staff realized he was a soft commit since he never even visited.

They are a recent phenom, and were very mediocre before Dantonio resurrected them. 9-3 was a huge season for them before he came along. Mediocre? They were garbage for 50 years before Dantonio with the notable exception of the one year Saban did well with them and he parlayed that into the LSU job.

But who knows his fish aquarium guy?

It didn't support your post one bit. Farmer might have been a top 100 player by the end of the year but he wasn't heavily recruited. Having offers from Florida, Georgia and UCLA doesn't exactly scream highly recruited either. Gates is the only one that we can say was highly recruited and from some top teams. Knevel had an offer from Bama and that about sums it up. He did have one from Wisconsin which holds a little weight IMO when it comes to Oline. It's shocking, sad and humorous how some "fans" will bend over backwards to down our players. You really are something else. Where in my statements have I "downed" our players? Don't feed the troll
