  1. It won't affect it at all. Nebraska has 7 home games scheduled for that season so the game vs. N. Illinois at Soldier Field will take place as scheduled.
  2. Callahan is a good OC, in my opinion. The Nebraska offense was never really a problem while he was head coach. It was the defense that stunk and lost him a lot of games. I believe he will have a good season in Dallas.
  3. I commend NYC for not having a domed stadium. Playing football indoors stinks and should be banned. Play football in any weather that presents itself. Enough with all these sissies and wanting games indoors and not having the weather elements involved. Get over it.
  4. Nebraska wins the B1G tourney and then it's off to the NCAA tourney! Book it!!! GBR!!!!
  5. Good. IMO it's the correct call - it fundamentally changes the nature of the golf swing by using a club as a pendulum with a fulcrum point against the body. Free-swinging action has always been the way golf is played. No more hiding flaws with a gimmicky approach to putting. It will hurt some players in the short term, but hey, just learn to actually putt. This. Couldn't have said it any better.
  6. Well every series is best-of-7 and they play a game every other night, so if every series ends in a sweep, it would take a minimum of 32 days to complete. That's just crazy. I was looking at the schedule and game 1 of the western conference finals was last night and game 2 is Tuesday. But game 1 for the eastern conference doesn't start until Wednesday. That scheduling is horrible and whomever is in charge should be fired. Just doesn't make any sense.
  7. I can't believe they are just now getting to the conference finals! This thread was starting a month ago. It's taking a month just for the conference finals to begin?!?!? That is crazy. So after the finals are played the playoffs will take around 2 months to complete? That's just absurd. There is no reason for any playoffs to take more than a month. Is it always like this for the NBA? I don't watch the NBA so I have no clue.
  8. Doubtful. I'm sure they just haven't thought about updating their user interface to add Nebraska yet.
  9. That's what I was trying to find out. Thanks LHF. That answers one of the questions. Still, though, are they providing Nebraska any on-demand content at all? I'm not sure of everything but as of a few weeks ago they had one of Nebraska's games against Florida (I believe it was Florida) in their Big Ten Classics game.
  10. BTN hasn't updated their entire on demand catalog. No MSO will have a Nebraska specific folder as you are asking about. So it's not just Verizon. It's DirecTV, Dish, Comcast, Time Warner, etc.
  11. http://espn.go.com/blog/bigten/post/_/id/76214/why-b1g-has-no-november-night-games
  12. I know I'm in the minority, but I really like the 11:00 a.m. start times. Then I have most of the afternoon, evening and night to do other things.
  13. I actually like the 5:00 start. I wish we could have more of those start times. As to no November night games, it was because of the two bye weeks this season. TV partners decided against booking November night games because the slate of games each week was so thin because of the two bye weeks. That will change next season.
  14. I, too, don't understand why no night games in November were scheduled this year. Nebraska has a few that would be great to play under the lights. Hopefully that changes next season.
  15. Ouch. 7-0. I was really hoping for a win here and looking for a sweep of Minny. If they don't come back and win this game a sweep of Minny next is crucial.
  16. Fox doesn't have a TV contract with the Big Ten. The reason why Fox televised it last season was because it was a Pac-12 controlled game. This year it's not. It can only be on either ABC, ESPN or BTN this season. Unless the rights to the UCLA @ Nebraska game fall to the BTN, and the BTN decides to sell them to their minority shareholder Fox for national broadcast and profit. This is extremely unlikely, though--this will likely be an ESPN game. That can't happen. BTN can't sublease any games to any other network. Doesn't matter if it's to the network that is a majority shareholder. Once again, these games can only air on ABC, ESPN or BTN. No other network.
  17. There has been only one night game ever in The Big House, a stretch is being a little too generous. And the Notre Dame game at the Big House will be at night this year, too.
  18. Yes, they own 51% of BTN but why does that matter? ESPN and ABC are owned by the same company but ABC can't take SEC games that ESPN can get. The only networks that any Big Ten home game can air on are ABC, ESPN or BTN. Period. No other network can air home B1G games. LouisianaHuskerFan, I think you are right about Fox. Of course I am. I know it all.
  19. Yes, they own 51% of BTN but why does that matter? ESPN and ABC are owned by the same company but ABC can't take SEC games that ESPN can get. The only networks that any Big Ten home game can air on are ABC, ESPN or BTN. Period. No other network can air home B1G games.
  20. They could but I can't imagine ABC or ESPN passing on this game to air during the day. It's most likely going to be on ABC at 2:30.
  21. Fox doesn't have a TV contract with the Big Ten. The reason why Fox televised it last season was because it was a Pac-12 controlled game. This year it's not. It can only be on either ABC, ESPN or BTN this season.
  22. Also, BTN hasn't selected their primetime games so odds are likely that at least one game will be at night for Nebraska.
  23. The game can't be on Fox. It's at Nebraska this year which means it's an ABC/ESPN/BTN controlled game.
  24. If he's happy at VCU and winning there then why should he leave? He would have so much pressure at UCLA. Hardly any pressure at all coaching at VCU.
  25. Coeur d'Alene in Idado. http://www.cdaresort.com/golf
