I believe that you can order authentic jersey's in either red or white with or without a name in any number from Husker Autherntic. They were over $100 last year so I would imagine that they would be atleast that this year.

I don't mind the video. I completely understand the people who think it makes us look a little silly, and on the other hand I don't mind the "pep" rally feel of the video in the middle of July. Afterall, we all know when that game will be played. We all are looking toward that date. Why not say it?

Thanks for the welcome. We are looking forward to actually getting in and competeing. As much as you want to be here for the first game with your Buckeye's, I am sure that most of us can't wait to get to the horseshoe. I am looking forward to going to all the new venues and taking in the atmosphere at each. Glad to be joining you guys. Welcome to the board!!!

Missouri Valley Conference?!?!?!? .... I'd go see them play Creighton!

So is Valentino's MAN LAW

Completely AGREE!

not trying to be rude, but who cares if he is back in time for Spring Ball... I dont think even a "healthy" Lee is going to beat out Green and Spano. While I want to believe Lee was hampered with injury, the fact that he kept playing on it and not saying anything to the coaches proves that he is the "selfish" type as opposed to the players who puts team (Suh is a fine example of such a player) before self. I hope Lee is recovering, but I dont think his absence is going to hurt our offense any. Where have you seen Spano play to know that he is better than Zac? Where do these ideas come from in yours or anyone elses mind? I to hope that he is recovering and that he is able to practice again both in the spring and fall. Not sure he will start either, but from what we have seen, he has as good a chance as anyone. Open up the competition and lets see where we are come game day on September 4th! Also, do you or anyone else who is spewing it about any current player ever think what your venom does for players that are looking to come here? I would imagine that most of them read a lot of this stuff, and for having the best fan base you wouldn't know it most of the time in threads like this one. Be supportive and hope for the best from all players. I am fine also if you express that one QB is better than the other, but it doesn't mean that you have to rip the other to make your point. Sorry, done ranting!

+1... me too

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, Really? Where did Joe Ganz learn to be the QB that he was? Wasn't Watson his QB coach? Anybody here calling for Watson's head ever managed people? If so, I am sure that you have had "great" years where your people made you look better than you truly were and "bad" years where your people made you look much worse than you truly were.

I voted for one more year........... and here is why! Did Shawn Watson become a horrible OC in just one year? I truly don't believe so. Does he seem to have a problem finding the "identity" that his offense should have? I would say yes. That is what Spring and Fall practice is for. Did he have the same playmakers this year that he did last year? I's say "HELL" no. Running backs were the only thing close to a year ago as far as production. The receivers, QB and Offensive Line were all much worse this year. IMHO, you don't go from 9th in total offense to the horrid offense we had this year just because your coaching stinks and you shouldn't have a job. It happens because your talent on the feild leaves and the talent that was still here didn't meet the expectations of anyone, including themselves, this year. Now is that coaching? Yes some of it is.... but you don't get to be 9th in total offense last year because your a horrible coach with a little talent. That is why I believe we give him one more year, with a little more experienced talent, and see what happens. Also, from everyone that I talked to last year thought that 2010 would be the year to see real, marked, sustainable improvement. Here is to a great bowl game and an even better 2010!!!! GBR

***Edited*** Double post... Sorry

I will not say that you are dead wrong, but I do not agree with your opinion. I do feel exactly like Don Borst from Foxsports. He wrote about it better than I could explain in words. (See Below) Also, did you see Colt's on the feild interview. He said there 18 seconds left when they snapped it. There was infact only 8 seconds left..... 18 seconds was on the play clock. He didn't even know what he was doing or talking about. Do you believe that the Big 12 wanted to give up the National Title game again for what would have been either the 4th or 5th time just because the heavily favored team couldn't win the title game? It maybe because I am biased.... but I believe, as does Don from Foxsports, that the Big12 wanted, if not even needed, for Texas to win this game. Conspiracy? Don't know that I would go that far, but it smells and won't look good outside of Texas if people are truthful with themselves!!!! Don Borst from Foxsports.com The voters should do what the Big 12 game officials didn't have the guts to do. That is, put Texas Christian (or Cincinnati, for that matter) into the BCS national championship game. It's too bad it won't happen. The referees have an excuse: They work for the Big 12 Conference, which desperately needed Texas to avoid an upset by Nebraska. The voters have no excuse. They still get to choose among undefeated teams to put in the national championship game against Alabama. But chances are, they will choose Texas. Four times over the years, the Big 12 has screwed itself out of the national title game with a huge upset in the conference championship game. They weren't going to allow that to happen again, no matter how dominant Ndamukong Suh was for Nebraska. Look, I don't hate the Longhorns. And I don't root for TCU, or Cincinnati ... or Nebraska. I don't hate the BCS, and I don't necessarily even crave a playoff tournament. But that ending of the Big 12 championship game was just wrong. Here's exactly what happened: There were 24 incomplete passes in the Texas-Nebraska game. On every one of them — every single one (I know, I went back and checked in slow motion) — the game clock ticked off that second, and sometimes another. That's how it always works in this and every other game: There's a bit of a human element (the eye sending the message to the brain, the brain relaying it to the finger on the clock button, the electronic impulses prompting the clock to stop). And so, when Colt McCoy inexplicably decided to run a play with six seconds remaining instead of calling timeout or, well, showing any sense of urgency, he rolled out and threw the ball away, way out of bounds, as the clock ticked down to 0:00. Nebraska rushed the field, Bo Pellini's team seemingly in possession of a sensational 12-10 triumph. But since Texas coach Mack Brown wanted a second placed back on the clock, and because the Big 12 wanted to have a second placed back on the clock, and because all of the six major BCS conferences HAD TO HAVE a second placed back on the clock, and because the referees figured they might never have a chance to work for the league ever again if they do this wrong ... that's how it went. So, unlike every other similar play in the game, the officials overruled the clock and put 0:01 back up on the scoreboard, and Texas ran the field goal team out there and Hunter Lawrence kicked it through. So, since the refs felt the need to overrule the clock, the voters can always overrule the game officials. It ain't right: Texas has no business being in the title game.

Makes for interesting debate.......... I would put SUH in the top 5 right now. I will wait until after the Big12 championship and Bowl game to cement his spot in my top 5 of all time. How about the rest of you? Sipple's Article......................... Making a list and checking it twice. Before this season began, Nebraska football coach Bo Pelini said Ndamukong Suh already was a special player. In order to ascend to an even higher level, Pelini said, Suh needed to play with tenacity and abandon on every single play. Check. Suh not even thinking about his chances to win the HeismanIn order to be considered among Nebraska’s best defenders of all time, Suh needed to follow his 2008 breakout season with a similarly spectacular 2009. After all, the greatest players typically sustain high levels for multiple years. Check. “From what I see, he’s as good as there’s ever been at Nebraska,” says Charlie McBride, providing substantial credence to what many of us have come to believe. McBride, Nebraska’s defensive coordinator/defensive line coach from 1982-99, helped mold Grant Wistrom and Jason Peter, among other All-America defenders. McBride obviously recognizes rare talent when he sees it. He sees it in Suh. “Suh’s drawn double teams, he’s drawn triple teams and he’s still made plays,” McBride says. “He’s been consistent. He hasn’t been one of those guys who’s taken a nap. A lot of times, you get guys who don’t play every play. As time’s gone on, he’s matured and learned that every play has to count. He’s special.” In fact, Suh’s arguably special enough to be considered one of Nebraska’s top three defenders of all time. In August, I ranked the 40 best Husker defensive players over the last 40 years, with rush end Wistrom (1994-97) topping the list, followed by middle guard Rich Glover (1970-72) and safety Mike Brown (1996-99). If nothing else, it was an interesting mental exercise. Really, who’s to say who’s the best? It’s an extremely subjective analysis, just one man’s opinion. That said, after discussing the topic at length with McBride, I have little trouble saying Suh belongs among the all-time top three, probably behind Wistrom and Glover and ahead of Brown. That’s as far as I’d go with Big Suh until someone convinces me otherwise. Suh and Wistrom are comparable statistically over their junior and senior seasons. Glover’s amazing tackle totals in 1971 and 1972 top both Suh and Wistrom. But stats are only part of the story. In addition to Wistrom and Peter, McBride coached standout linemen such as Trev Alberts, Broderick Thomas, Danny Noonan, Neil Smith, Jim Skow and Jared Tomich — each of whom made the top 15 of my top 40 — “and Suh may be the best of all of them,” McBride says. “And I mean, those guys are great players. They had unbelievable motors.” However, “Those guys, a lot of them, didn’t have the athletic ability that Suh has,” McBride says. “If you tested out Wistrom, he didn’t always do very good. But his motor made up the difference.” Some might be skeptical of seeing Suh mentioned in such exalted company. Skeptics will say the latest star often gets the nod when discussing the greatest in any category. That’s why I sought out McBride. He coached many of the greatest, and still watches NU closely. Regarding Suh’s standing among elite Husker defenders, McBride’s awfully convincing.
