I hope you are right. I hope the team brings it. To say Texas is taking us serious is laughable.

Did the cougs hire Bronco Mendenhall. I used to work at Uof U medical center in the ER. I loved it there. I used to get alot of crap on Saturday wearing my Blackshirt scrubs......those have since been retired for obvious reasons.

it's like watching a bad car accident, you know you should'nt look but you have to.

I hope not, and if I am, is there some medication I can take for it! And anyone associated with BYU...that's tough for a grad of the 'U' to accept. so you are a UTE alumn?

spelling: mancrush

After a standout baseball and football career at West Torrance High in California, Sarkisian began his collegiate athletic career in 1992 at the University of Southern California (USC) as a member of the Trojan baseball team. Sarkisian transferred to El Camino Junior College, where he played his first two seasons of college football. As a freshman in 1993, he earned All-Mission Conference honors. In his sophomore season, he was named JC All-American. In 1995, Sarkisian transferred to Brigham Young University (BYU), and immediately became the team's starting quarterback (he replaced John Walsh, also a graduate of West Torrance High). At BYU, Sarkisian was coached by former USC offensive coordinator Norm Chow. As a junior, Sarkisian passed for 3,437 yards and 20 touchdowns, earning All-WAC honors. Sarkisian finished the season in spectacular fashion, completing 31-of-34 passes for 399 yards and 3 touchdowns in BYU's 45-28 victory over Fresno State. His completion percentage in the game (91.2 percent) set an NCAA record. It is notable that two of the three incompletions Sarkisian threw in the game were intentionally thrown out of bounds to avoid the pass rush. Sarkisian's senior season at BYU was even better. He opened the season by passing for 536 yards and 6 touchdowns in the Cougars' 41-37 upset victory over Texas A&M in the Pigskin Classic. The 536 yards passing were the most ever by a player against Texas A&M's "Wrecking Crew" defense. Sarkisian finished the game with a thrilling 46-yard touchdown pass to K.O. Kealaluhi to seal the victory. BYU finished the regular season with a 13-1 record, defeating Wyoming 28-25 in the WAC Championship Game. Sarkisian passed for 4,027 yards and 33 touchdowns during the regular season. His 173.6 passer rating led the entire NCAA. For his efforts, he was named WAC Offensive Player of the Year and was 2nd Team NCAA All-American. BYU finished the season with 19-15 win over Kansas State in the Cotton Bowl. Sarkisian threw a pair of TD passes in the fourth quarter to lead the Cougars to the come-from-behind victory. BYU finished the season with a 14-1 record, ranked fifth in the nation in both the AP Poll and Coaches Poll. The Cougars became the first Division I-A team in NCAA history to win 14 games in a single season. Before the Cotton Bowl, Sarkisian was featured on the cover of TV Guide under the line "COUGARS ROAR!" Sarkisian's 162.0 career passing efficiency rating is third on the all-time NCAA list Sarkisian's coaching career began in 2000, when he returned to El Camino Junior College as quarterbacks coach. He went to USC, first as an offensive assistant (2001), then as quarterbacks coach (2002 and 2003). Sarkisian was partly responsible for the success enjoyed by Trojan QBs Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart (both developed into Heisman Trophy winners). In 2004, Sarkisian served as quarterbacks coach for the Oakland Raiders of the National Football League (NFL). He returned to USC for the 2005 season, now with the title of Assistant Head Coach (in addition to his duties as quarterbacks coach). In January 2007, Sarkisian interviewed with the Oakland Raiders for their vacant Head Coach position but pulled himself out of the running and decided to stay at USC. Sarkisian was named to replace Lane Kiffin as USC's Offensive Coordinator when Kiffin took the head coaching job of the Oakland Raiders. Pharoah are you developing a amncrush???

MANCRUSH= Sarkisian MANCRUSH#2= Bo Pelini Not a Gill fan for HC, but why is it that Sarkisian is getting a bye for never being a HC but it was always used against Turner Gill. Maybe because Sarkisian is much more qualified? to further reiterate my man crush........that would be huge in salvaging recruits......the whole idea of "west coast" offense would stay in tact but we would have someone who made it work in college football. Sarkisian was a qb coach who studied under Lavell Edwards/Norm Chow...........I think those guys know how to make great qbs..........that hire would scare the sh#t out of the rest of the chumscrubbers in the big 12 north. Too many good points to make but my last one he looks nothing like Mangino.

MANCRUSH= Sarkisian MANCRUSH#2= Bo Pelini

Would love it........tutored under norm Chow.........played at BYU.......was a great quarterback........beat Kjuco in the cotton bowl.......tutored under Carroll...........what is not to like..........I would neck choke my neighbor if we hired him.................... QB recruits galore strong ties to California.........it would be huge IF we got him..........thanks for uplifting my spirits , but I would be totally shocked..........IF WE GOT HIM.

Been to every game and it seems the team has given up after the Fizzou blowout.........its true and I think that is why fans and ex-players alike get so pissed..............I can honestly say I have never seen a NU team just give up in our house like this year...........even when KSU whipped us in 2003.

now poop on the Oliver............LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtJRNyPK-lc taht video is awesome..........this one is good too.

Think it is costly to buy out Callahan, look at Charlie Weiss' contract. I think it would cost ND 20+ million to buy out his contract! Charlie is not going anywhere and the buyout the would have to give him would hurt any program. ND will be good ......in a short while........just look what the NE pats can do........Charlie came up in that system.........ND will be top 5 in a short time maybe by next two years I can see them playing in a NC game. Jonas can see we have a pretty deep stable of running backs....I think he committed more to Jordan than to NU program........

Nice watch........gos did you see the love that team had for that guy in such a short time............nice post

had a hell of a game against Iowa State........better than SK did??????

amen! If you are getting paid millions to coach at NU even if you will be fired at end of season you do not say that you do your job and retain recruits...........if you ever want to coach again. I said it before Cally is going to try and give the big screw you to NU before he leaves with his big contract buyout........I think this speaks volumes to the type of recruits that have been recruited.........the is no love of NU.......I hope its gets back to the majority recruits just loving to play for Nebraska!

I would like to apologize........my friend likes to read up on the husker implosion ( he is a hawkeye fan) although I have had differences with people on the board I have never resorted to profanity.......I took autosign off so he cannot get on and flame........again even though I am critical of our team I will always be RED. Thanks P.S. he called it on Cally back when he was hired..........hate to say it but he was right........

its just so painfully obvious I have to shout it to the world............and thanks for the :asshat

this is just ridiculous. I can't believe "fans" are saying this. They don't deserve to wear RED I've been more disappointed in the fans in the past few weeks than I have in the team. its a minority I was at A&M game and the fans cheered all game............obviuosly there is some truth to it but security wont even let people close to the bench............but I can tell you most of the anymosity was at the coaches not at big MO.........sh#t he catches an 8 yd pass and the crowd erupts.......the fans are hungry for some sign of life from that team..............Mo should attend man camp this summer before he goes to the nfl.........because if he thinks lincoln is bad..........

history repeating itself........but thanks for telling me

Damn........well that should help with offside penalties

Dave H. you are a great Mod

Raiders say goodbye to Callahan -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jamal, Ray Lewis are players of year The Associated Press ALAMEDA, Calif. - Bill Callahan went from the Super Bowl to the unemployment line in less than a year. The Oakland Raiders announced Callahan's firing Wednesday, just one season after he took the team within a victory of an NFL championship as a rookie head coach. The team told Callahan a day earlier. He asked to delay the announcement because his son Brian's college team, UCLA, played in a bowl game Tuesday night. Openly criticized by his players, Callahan went 15-17 over two regular seasons, including 4-12 this season, the Raiders' worst record since 1997 and the biggest drop by a Super Bowl team. He was fired shortly after quarterback Rich Gannon criticized Callahan and offensive coordinator Marc Trestman for a bad offensive system. Owner Al Davis is not known for patience with coaches. Callahan, who earned $1 million a season, completed the second year of a two-year contract, and Davis declined a series of one-year club options that could have kept Callahan in Oakland through the 2006 season. Callahan, a seven-year NFL assistant with no previous head coaching experience, was promoted from offensive coordinator when Jon Gruden went to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after the 2001 season. Gruden's Bucs beat Callahan's Raiders 48-21 in the 2003 Super Bowl. This season, though, the Raiders tied for the worst record in the NFL with the Chargers, Cardinals and Giants. They ended their season with a 21-14 loss at San Diego. There was speculation for weeks that Callahan would be dismissed. Now the Raiders are the seventh NFL team without a head coach.
