No kidding!  But he just kicked a beauty of an extra point! GBR!

I was surprised that J.T. Barrett was in this type of game.  Doesnt strike me as an NFL QB at all.  What little i saw of his time in there, he was a clunker.

I agree.  He did NOT have a good game!  There was a running back in there, Lawry (sp?) from Old Dominion!  Wow!  That kid could move!  He reminded me of Roy Helu!! 

The Huskers frustrated Mich in so many ways last night it was crazy to watch.

That was such an exciting game to watch!  Michigan didn't know what hit them!  They played such smart basketball.  I just hope they can continue to play that way. 

Luckily we tied it up so we could show everyone our great execution of set plays.

I was impressed that they didn't give up. Why they passed it to Watson, though, is beyond me!  He choked tonight!

This is starting to overshadow the phenomenal season that UCF had and is quite sad. They will be remembered/mocked more so for how they handled the situation.

I don’t think so. Many people agree with this sentiment on a national level. When I listened to Nick Bahe yesterday he said that talk about UCF’s season and the changes that need to happen in the playoff system overshadowed the National Championship game.  People are fed up with having to watch the SEC in the finals year after year. 

Oops!  Sorry for the repeat.  I just saw it on the main board.

I haven't heard anything official, but I'm assuming it's Thomas Lincoln Frost, III.

Champ.

Lawrence Thomas 

The Raiders have one more year in Oakland.  They don't start playing in Las Vegas until 2019.

Didn’t Gruden coach them before? (Raiders)

Yep, Gruden was head coach with the Raiders from 1998-2001.  He was then "traded" to the Buccaneers where he was coach from 2002-2008.  He defeated our very own Bill Callahan with in the Super Bowl following the 2002 season.

Actually, I would make them #2. If Alabama or Georgia wanted that they maybe shouldn't have lost any games, and either one can still get #1.

The CFP committee has been pretty consistent - UCF didn't play a tough enough schedule and is being penalized for it. I think they have a point but only to a degree.

I don't think it's wholly fair and a system should be in place that would allow a team like UCF to compete for a title. There just should be. That said, should an undefeated team that played the 54th strongest schedule get a spot over say a one loss team with the 6th tough schedule? I think that's dicey.

Yeah, I just feel like they got penalized enough by missing out on the playoffs. Then they played a pretty legit team on New Year's. SEC. Beat both MNC finalists, right? Supposedly they were going to get creamed, finally. And they didn't just show they belonged, they beat Auburn. #2 is the only fitting consolation I think. It doesn't actually mean anything. If other teams feel like they deserved it more maybe they should have avoided losing games. If we all want this to be more clear in the future than don't have a 4 team playoff.

There was a problem with the last server update.

Thanks Tom for the update and all you guys do to keep our board up and running. Appreciate it!

In the eyes of an Ohio State of MSU fan the Big Ten did have a perfect bowl season.    But yeah, I imagine Harbaugh's seat is starting to warm a bit.

The Harbaugh hype train is setting at the station with a broken engine.

A reporter asked Harbaugh after the game that  given there will be coaching openings in the NFL would this be his last game coaching at Michigan. Harbaugh said, ‘No.’. Interesting. We’ll see. I wonder about Harbaugh and especially Urban Meyer. I could see Meyer bowing out. 

Is combining allowed?

GO BEE ONE GEE RED.....

I'm just glad I have multiple tvs and my iPhone/iPad. ColoradoHusk: Glad you're finally seeing the light, man! 

I see a few of you guys never quit drinking from last night.

B1G 7-0!

I was telling my wife the same thing about Sam.

I love that Gaglianone wears #27.  Sam’s not gone if we remember 

I’m not sure what quantifications you are looking for. I said I am probably in the minority because I think there are a lot of posters on this board that care how well the Big Ten teams do, especially in bowl games. Myself, I really don’t care. I’m not openly rooting for many other teams other than Nebraska, unless those games have a DIRECT correlation on where NU will end up in a given season. As it currently stands, Nebraska had a super s#!tty season, so I could give 2 s#!ts about how well the conference does during bowl season. All the games are having an INDIRECT impact on Nebraska. 

You said: “Caring about how other teams in the conference do is something that fans of losing teams do.“. How so? Nebraska was a losing team this year but that hasn’t always been the case. Other folks on this board root for other teams in our conference-so are you calling us losers? 

I just like to watch football period. I will always root for a B1G team playing against a team not in our conference. I also root for old Big 8 teams. I will never root for Texas or Notre Dame. 

@ColoradoHusk, I root for ever B1G team except the Huskers to lose unless they're playing the SEC, then I root for the SEC to lose. If every single team but the Huskers lost every game, I'd be cool with that. I don't give a crap about the conference or who thinks which conference is the best or whatever.

I can't remember what game it was, but an announcer was saying  something to the effect. that they couldn't wait until Nebraska was back where it belonged-up in the top 10 again.  They said that when Nebraska football is at its best it helps college football overall.  I agree.  (Moiraine-noble effort!  I like Frostion!   I don't know about anyone else but I enjoy the Canadian sitcom, 'Corner Gas'.  It's about a small town called 'Dog River'.  Anyway, in one of their episodes two of the characters were getting ready to play a trivia game.  One of the characters said, 'Ok, get frosty.'  which meant get ready to play to win.  So to the Big Red I say-GET FROSTY!!!)

@ladyhawke I think the Michigan State-Washington State game was on FOX, so the color commentator would have been Joel Klatt.  I think Klatt is the best analyst announcer in the game.  He's a former Colorado QB under Gary Barnett who knows his stuff.

ColoradoHusk, glad someone else heard that too!  Klatt is good and always seems to have a good word for Nebraska. 

Amazing that Purdue gets a competent coach and they go 7-6...with a real chance to have ended up with 9 wins.

I thought the same thing! Here we beat them and we can't even muster up 6 wins. I am SO looking forward to the 2018 football season!

He reminded me of a young Taylor Martinez.

Merry Christmas!

DVR'd it.  HOLLA!

You will really enjoy it!

Army with 440 rushing yards on 87 rushing attempts.  87!!  Held the ball for 46 minutes.  Insane stuff!

8 turnovers for Bohl's squad - incredible.  They would have likely won easily without them, too.

A lot of this isn't new. Shady stuff has been going on in that program for awhile. 

Oh ewwwww Cdog923!  I didn't know about that!  (I still think the self reported things listed were like Nebraska and the textbook thing! )

I loathe DA. Hated him ever since went to camp at CU and treated us small town teams like s#!t. POS in my book. Which was weird considering hes from a small town. But a big ego can do that to you.

@GSG I might need the details for that drinking game. I suspect I've been doing it all wrong.

@Comfortably Numb I THINK WE DO A COMBINATION OF THESE TWO:

WE USED THE 2ND ONE BECAUSE OF THE COP SHOOTING INTO A CROWD OF BYSTANDERS

ALSO, I WOULD RECOMMEND USING BEER OR MAKING SOME SLIGHTLY WEAKER COCKTAILS. OTHERWISE YOU MIGHT NOT MAKE IT TO THE END

Santa With Muscles starring Hulk Hogan

Not a few people were harsh toward MR for bring so many of his staff, however they didn't end their tenure at Ore St with an undefeated season either. 

No kidding!  

Thanks you guys! Appreciate it! 

How about the penn state game?  I was in Vegas and listened on the app. Would love to watch it. 

Krc1995-Go to YouTube and type in Husker Volleyball 2017. The Penn State Match is on there. You have to scroll down a little but it’s there.
