Well........that was exciting......

This is the most satisfying half of Nebraska Football that I have witnessed in a very long time. It includes several examples of the kind of mistake that would usually bury this team mentally. The defense is playing hard. Winning some and losing some. They are forcing those turnovers. I guess "just making Ohio State punt" is overrated. Who knew?

Yeah....I got bored with Red Dead 1. Pretty repetitive. I'm not into the western style. I watched a couple players on the Mixer dealio play and it just doesn't do much for me.

He will stay until the end of the year. If Nebraska wins Saturday and they lose again, I could see a Fred Sanford situation in his future.

I'm hoping someone can help me. Can there be holding on running plays? Is it just pass plays where holding occurs?

I learned Daytona Beach might be a good place for a Runza franchise.

OK. A little patience will need to be in order. Young back-ups are prone to mistakes. They are excited and anxious. This is great to be able to go to the 2nd and 3rd string. It's been a minute...

Sweet! Thanks for doing this. I'm not watching, just listening on a radio app.

I don't live in West Virginia... Besides, I would just have to trust the board when "awful" is said and that is not happening.

Will coffee count in this drinking game?

I haven't heard a third down play for NU, yet.

Was that a Mikale Wilbon sighting that I just heard? Listening on IMG Husker Sports radio app.

Me too. That's why I think that his stubbornness to stick with the play under extreme duress, with everything swirling around him, will pay big dividends the next several years. I believe Nebraska hit home runs with Maurice Washington and Adrian Martinez. Mo is pretty fiery and exceptionally talented and Adrian is just so calm, cool and calculating. They are true freshmen playing with poise beyond their experience.

Adrian looks to run the play as called until it is too late, sometimes. I have seen him pass up sure 8-15 yd gains running to try and run the play as called. I think this stubborn way of playing will pay dividends as the game slows down and he gets to all the possible reads faster. Eventually, he'll make the decision to take off quicker, too. For this reason, I picked Ozigbo with 1000+ and Adrian Martinez will come up short. Next year, Mo and Martinez both get 1000.

Turn out the light. Don't try to save me. You may be wrong, for all I know, but you may be right.

Does intent matter? If a sack is not imminent, how is the intent of the throw determined? Aren't there option routes where the QB and WR have to read the coverage the same way? Is every miscommunication grounds for grounding? Did you see what I did there?

We learned that there can be addition by subtraction. In many different ways. Subtract cancerous influences, add mental fortitude. Subtract mistakes, add points to show for your efforts.

No way! There is still a lot to accomplish this season. This is the first step. It was bigger than I thought it would be, but I feel Nebraska is on it's way up, finally.

I'm thinking the players are learning something about themselves. Might be turning a corner. Great effort on several players today.

The announcer mentioned the 1 holding call that was accepted in the last 21 games and made a point about there only being 2 called. He said when the research staff found the stat, they had someone else verify it. Laurenitis then waxed philosophical as to a team's reputation being such that they don't ever get holding calls. As an LB, he said he saw holding on virtually every play, but to have drawn so few, then he trailed off.

Well, hypothetically speaking(let me hear your body talk, your body talk) I would prefer one that is as late in December (Let's get into physical, physical) as possible. Also, a warm weather locale for the players to enjoy. The Redbox/Foster Farms bowlio (you know what I meeeaann?) would be perfect. It's usually played after most schools go on Winter Break on a Thursday night.? So, that would make it easy to view. Again, all apologies for the excessive disjointment on this post, but I fear the rest of my day is screwed. Dammit Scotty! Don't you have some Dilithium Crystals to align or something?

I read the thread title and am unable to banish Olivia Newton John from my head. I will be unable to comment until this monumental task is accomplished. All apologies.

Did you play it through before the patch that changed the controversial ending? It's been a while since I played Mass Effect. I guess the new one, Andromeda, was pretty bad.

I don't gamble on others potential performance, so I don't really know current sports book trends. That is news to me that sportsbooks are basically wagering themselves, now. I'll play Blackjack if my brother drags me to a casino, that's about it. I will wager on my own performance, though. I appreciate your perspective and learning something.
