  1. OK. Here is what happened.

     

    The original commissioner made me the commissioner and I didn't realize I was the commissioner, and since I haven't played in a few days, I kept advancing the week because I thought I was really behind or something. I didn't get the mechanics of this at all.

     

    OK, thanks for the explanation. I was like...what the heck is going on here!!

  2. Yeah dude, what gives with this? Who is the commisioner, and why was it simmed so fast? I've been playing my games right away each week, and now I have had 2 games simmed. Are you trying to get people to quit for your buddies, or what's going on? Rediculous.

     

     

    Hey why is the week advancing so fast!? It's advanced twice tonight!

  3. What the hell does that mean, restarting games?

     

    That is some BS, play the game. If you lose, you lose. That is not fair to the rest of us.

     

    How is it even possible you can do that?

     

    It has been nearly a week since I've played a game on this thing.

     

    There was a problem I heard with the servers that kept logging people out I heard. That's why the guy who is Georgia had to restart anyway. I do sure wish that va tech guy would play. I had a bye week this week and am iching to play real bad!

  4. Here's the record of the Big 12 Championship game. Notice how the South has owned the North:

     

    BIG 12 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS

    Year Team Record

    1996 Texas 6-2

    1997 Nebraska 8-0

    1998 Texas A&M 7-1

    1999 Nebraska 7-1

    2000 Oklahoma 8-0

    2001 Colorado 7-1

    2002 Oklahoma 6-2

    2003 Kansas St. 6-2

    2004 Oklahoma 8-0

    2005 Texas 8-0

    2006 Oklahoma 7-1

    2007 Oklahoma 6-2

    2008 Oklahoma 7-1

    Notice how Oklahoma owns the North.

  5. I also love this play. It is actually called a choice route for the IB. If the mike lb is absent, the IB goes through teh fake handoff and goes about 5 yards or so deep and turns around and sits for the pass. If the mike is present, then instead of sitting 5 yards deep, he goes through the fake hand off and goes 5 yards down teh middle, then breaks to the outside. Often times there will be a slot receiver or TE on the same side clearing the olb from the play. I don't think it's always suppose to be a screen. Since it is play-action, you will see some penetration from the front 4 because they think it is run.

  6. I've been putting this project off long enough, and am trying to make an 08 blackshirt resurgence video, and am unable to find any highlights from the gator bowl, and now huskers.com doesn't let you download the videos anymore. Can anyone help me out??

  7. scrap the quick screen out of the shot gun. scrap the speed options to castille out of the shot gun. throw down field on first and run on second. i formation in the five yard line. we struggled in the redzone and settled for fgs in the bowl and against the buffs wwhen we tried shotgun at the five.

  8. Lets go back to the way the bowls use to be before BcS. Back then, not only did every regular season game count, but there was no conference championship game for some select conferences, and EVERY BOWL GAME COUNTED! You had to watch them all on New Years to see how the whole thing unfolded. I had a lot of great childhood memories about the bowl games when I was younger.

  9. I think with an even better defensive line, like what we'll have next year, we'll get more of a consistent pass rush with only 4 guys, and it will be for most of the year instead of part of the year. Great pressure from the d-line can make our secondary look amazing!! I'm pumped for it!! We should have some more athleticism at the lb position as well, although they could be young.

  10. If you think college is hard I can't wait for you to graduate.

     

    But at least you don't have a sense of entitlement though. And lucky for you nothing is your fault.

     

    PS, without you, there'd still be a NU football team.

     

     

    really? without students there would a football team? wow, i'd love to see how that goes.. and fyi i was at the game. and um.. and how can you say i don't have a sense of entitlement? do you know me? no. but keep judging me as an individual. and don't say it was generic b/c obviously it wasn't. and funny, my dad said life after college is easier than during... maybe you didn't have to do anything during college :dunno , sorry it doesn't work that way for everyone.

    Man, what does your dad do for a job then. I want that job

  11. Hello, I'm a student at the university, and I've browsed these forums for a while now and enjoy reading everything people have to say about the huskers. But I decided to join to add to this post. I was one who did complain after the changing of the student section seating. When I was younger, I made it to a couple of husker games. I never thought they were very exciting because everyone around me was extremely quiet and sat the whole game except for touchdown celebrations. There was no enthusiasm. Until I came to college. My first year that I purchased student tickets was last season. I had never felt so much pride after sitting in the student section after the nevada game. Since then I can't listen to the tunnelwalk song without getting goosebumps, and get the chills every time I drive on 180 heading into downtown going by the stadium. I became angered when I found out they were setting us up farther. I thought, are they really sending us back further so people can sit the whole game and pay half attention to the game while talking to their friends about their past week? I figured if you want to do that, you just as well watch the damn game on tv. But what is done is done, and I still show up early to get a good seat. I braved the cold yesterday, and loved every minute of the ku game. However, from my point of view, people are leaving or not showing up because:

    1. We are not the dominant team we were while growing up

    2. It was very cold

    3. Many of them were still probably hung over

    But I believe the first reason is the most important. Many students don't want to go anymore because they don't want to be there to watch us lose. I'm afraid that the past Callahan years may have led some students to become bandwagon fans.

    However, I do want it to be known that we did bitch for a reason about our seating being changed, because in past years the student section has provided a great majority of the noise in that stadium. NEVER have I looked over to section 16 and seen fans standing screaming their lungs out before every defensive play, cheering the blackshirts on. But at least the alums don't have to yell at us to sit down anymore, as that was the most noise some of them were making the whole game.

     

    As huskers532 said, be prepared...thanksgiving break will mean even more empty seats

    People don't mind standing during a game, it's just rediculous you guys always had to stand on your seats. That really makes it difficult for people behind you to see even while standing up. Kids find it hard to see, older people find it hard to see. They have just as much right to watch the game there as you do. I saw many times on the jumbotron you were asked to not stand on the benches during teh games, security people came and asked you guys to stand on the concrete and not on the benches. Because you could not follow the rules, moving you up was a consequence of your actions. Kids these days think they can do whatever the hell they want without any reguard to others, and then when they are punished, they whine about it and say it isn't fair.

     

    I think there were quite a few students at the game, but it was cold and they seemed more huddled together than before.

     

    Last thing is the song goes, we all stay together in all kinds of weather. Not going because you don't want to watch them lose is a poor excuse. The student section shouldn't be the bandwagon fans of the group.

     

     

     

    yet again. people do mind standing. it does not have everything to do with standing on their seats. not at all. standing in general. i remember twice, twice, going to games before being a student, standing after kickoff, and getting yelled at, by multiple people, multiple times. so don't feed me that bs. you say kids these days think they can do whatever they want? well i'll throw this at you, adults these days think they can tell us "kids" to do whatever the hell they want us to do. NEWSFLASH. 99% of all students at the University are adults. 18. Adults. Yet you continue to think you can boss us around and tell us that we are ignorant a$$hole$. maybe there is a reason we act like that? oh wait, thats right, we were RAISED THAT WAY. who raised us? oh wait, the same generation that is complaining that the younger people are that way. Hmm funny how that works, huh? And maybe you don't realize because you aren't a student. But this past week was a huge week for tests. A lot of students may have gone back home for the weekend, or simple checked out and decided to sleep. God forbid that someone tries to catch up on sleep when they are running on three or four hours a night. just as you say it's not all about the "kids" but guess what, it's not all about you either. sorry. think about possible reasons rather than just jumpin down on people when you don't know any circumstances.

     

    18 isn't an adult. You have no idea what the real world is like even when you are in college. I'm 27, so I'm not real old myself. Maybe some of you should listen to advise and not think your being bossed around.

  12. don't know how much better it's going to be for the Colorado game around Thanksgiving.

     

    Well if the final game of the year against CU, doesn't get your blood flowing. Then you don't have a pulse! (or your a spoiled college kid who doesn't yet realize what your missing out on!) <_<

     

     

    im going to take offense to that. a spoiled college kid? yea, i absolutely LOVE going to class for 8 hours on tuesdays n thursdays, and another 2 on monday wednesday friday, while turning around and working 35-40 hours, plus having to study and do homework. oh wait, and i have to pay $4000 a semester for it. Yea, spoiled, im sorry that we get cheaper tickets than everyone else. Cheaper in what way? the fact that we pay tuition and without us there would be no team? yea. whatever.

     

    Actually if there were no student athletes, there wouldn't be a team.
