I'd take Goodson... he was only a freshman last year. Goodson tore his knee up last year. Patrick is an animal that runs pissed off and downhill. Goodson is young and very talented, Patrick is a senior and a 20 carries a game kinda back. Goodson is not as durable, but when healthy, very fast. gOU Big Red

yep, your right....its dead.

The 1956 OU team only punted 3 times the whole year...THE WHOLE YEAR. When the college all star practice was going on Paul Horning was taking snaps from OU's center and he was bouncing them from ten yards. He replied...what in the hell is going on....can't you snap? Our center responded.."we only punted 3 times this year..I havn't had enough practice"! gOU Big Red

Aug. 31 at Oklahoma 64-21 Sept. 9 at Michigan St. 50-10 Sept. 16 vs. Arizona St. 77-28 Sept. 23 vs. Pacific 49-7 Sept. 30 vs. Washington St. 35-21 Oct. 14 vs. Missouri 57-0 Oct. 21 vs. Kansas St. (8) 49-25 Oct. 28 at Colorado (7) 44-21 Nov. 4 vs. Iowa State 73-14 Nov. 11 at Kansas (10) 41-3 Nov. 24 vs. Oklahoma 37-0 Jan. 2 vs. Florida (2) 62-24 The Washington State game was the only close game, NU's first two drives resulted in fumbles and WSU had one really good drive, but even that game wasn't as close as the score indicates. The bugeaters never played us in Aug......... I thought tom had turned the corner when he was up by fourty, and was passing for long bombs no class. No one will ever forget that classless act of coaching Did you ever realize it took Swit's firing for Neb to beat OU? I guess it was pinned up frustration for all those years of getting your butt kicked, to make him do that. gOU Big Red

Not to mention Tierre Green who will be playing the same position two years in a row for the first time in his career! Our back seven can rival anyone in the country! please, send me some of what you are smoking! Another honest post.

hahah, are you kidding me? Freeman is just another QB in the Husker eyes. All this hype over him starting at KSU and he played terrible against us...at HOME! I don't see KSU ever being a rival. The CU game has become something I look forward to more...just because I wanna cream those hippies every chance we get! I remember a very green Tommie Frazier losing to a very piss poor Iowa State team his true freshman year, so I wouldn't count Freeman out due to one poor game. I guess you already forgot about the game Freeman played against Texas? Whenever KState has been good, they had an outstanding QB (Bishop and Roberson). I'm not saying Freeman will ever be as good as those two QB's, but he could. In order to KState to rise up and be of rivalry caliber again, they need the QB position to be extremely solid. I think it is naive to think that KSU will never be our rival. Oh how short memories are. In 1998, they were the Big 12 Championship game away from playing for a NC. In 2003, they absolutely kicked the ever living crap out of a team that was thought to be the best in the nation. Considering their coach is only the 4th coach in the Big 12 to make it to a bowl game in his first year after taking over a program with a losing record the previous year, I think you're not giving enough credit where credit is due. Btw, I'm sure if Freeman would have come to NU you'd be saying he's the best thing since beer in a can. I'm not saying KState will amount to much in 07', but I think it's very naive to count them after that. Great Post!! , no bias, very honest and observant!

I would seriously consider not doing the "hook em" sign BIGREDIOWAN.

When you first said this I agreed. But upon reflection, I disagree. Rivalry means playing the other guy for who he is and not what for he has done. UCLA's upset of us this year would never have happened if it was based on "taking care of business". Our upsets of them in the past would not have happened if it was based on "taking care of business" Here locally in b-ball the Duke-Carolina rivalry wouldn't be what it is if it was based on "taking care of business". No. Rivalry means pinning your ears back and going after that other guy at all costs. Anything less is some level of championship game, not rivalry. I liked the rivalries of the old Big-8, the old Pac-8, the old SWC, and the old ACC (R.I.P) And I disagree with your assesment, cause 'if" our teams don't "take care of business" we won't meet every year. Like your Pac-10,. you guys had to add a game so you would play everyone in your conference. We don't have that option. We are two on and two off with Nebraska. ...But...If we take care of business we can meet every year! The formation of the Big-12 did in our Thanksgiving day classic, with the passing of old fans that don't communicate it to the newer fans it will continue to fade. Our rivialry it texASS, the OU-NU game was a fall "classic". I would like to see the Pac-10 add two more teams, maybe a Fresno State, BYU or a San Deigo State and have a Championship game like the ACC, SEC and the Big 12. I wonder what people would say if UCLA and sc only played two on and two off? I know that they would be playing every year because of the geographical location, but in my observation the OU-NU game was and is bigger on a national scale than the battle for "LA". If OU and NU played every year it would be good for football on a national level. My observations gOU Big Red

Like it not, these are the cards you guys have been dealt in the north with K-State and Colorado. I guess those are your rivarlies now. We have our hands full with the South. Like I said before on other posts, "If we take care of business we should meet every December" gOU Big Red

There are no "gimmie' games anymore, especially in this Big 12 we live in now. I'm concerned about all of them. gOU Big Red
