As long as they're better than that bum Henery, I don't care who wins the competition !!

Does anyone know where to find the lyrics ?? They're kind of tough to follow just listening to it.

I thought we were told he called the plays in the Holiday Bowl . That did not turn out very well, but as stated earlier, I agree that it all hinges on TM and if he can get back to where he was before the MU game, and sustain it. When TM excelled, the whole offense followed suit. That young man has a lot of pressure on him.

Lots on east side, too.

I always root for the Huskers #1............and then who ever is playing IOWA.

Good article - three things caught my attention 1 - they played two games in Council Tucky B - Council Tucky has a newspaper 3rd - people in Council Tucky can read Let's just hope the "beautiful" sculptures in that great city don't scare the fans away. I'm not sure the rest of Iowa knows what awaits them as they come west. Gawd awful !!!

Yes, you can use this lenten season to get closer to the Lord also. All believers, how bout that? Much better. I'm not anything even close to Catholic, and don't agree with a lot of it, but usually take part in Ash Wednesday. Here's praying for revolution in this country and those believers becoming closer to and more in love with Jesus. Amen to that.

No, not this year. That game has been played. But maybe in January 2012 !!

Dirk being a dick by making a story the kid can repeat. Jackson acknowledges he still would have come to NU. End of story, mountain reduced back to mole hill. GBR !

Excellent read. Let's remember that we are headed to the Big 10 and an entirely different type, i.e., old school NU, offense will be needed to compete. That's not to say that a strong passing game is not needed, it will be, but not the Leach school of thought. I would love a backfield full of "Rexes" -- one to run, one for screens and one that can knock you on your butt, even if you are a 300 lb. lineman. We need diversity, but solid ground rules, not wide open "fun-n-gun". T-Magic will never be healthy. Too many hits from huge lineman.

Great story ....but as I read the thread title, I thought to myself .....Self, are there any Tom Osborne stories that are NOT positive ? It will be a sad day when we can no longer look to his guidance.

I'm trying to figure out how this thread got to two pages already. It should have had no response whatsoever. Just sayin'.

Not true. There was one holding call against Kansas in the second half after the call from Dan Beebe was dropped by Verizon, and the ref had no choice but to step it off.

What town in SW Iowa did you grow up in ? I grew up in Corning, but born in Omaha....hence my Nebraska connection. Graduated HS in 1979.

I think some of the rants about Bo's rants in this thread are more damning than Bo's rants. Boy, what a fan base. I've been watching and cheering for the HUSKERS since I could shake my rattle nearly 50 years ago, and I sometimes wish TO would have put up a little more of a fight with the zebs. But every coach has a different style, predicated on his current team make-up. If his players need to see his fire to get their feet warmed up, so be it. GO BIG BO, and GO BIG RED.

I spoke with a "Karen" in the ticket office yesterday. She said the kick-off will not be announced until Sunday or Monday !!!

I am going to be in Omaha this weekend, and next, and was wondering where the best viewing experience would be near Village Pointe Shopping on West Dodge.

Exactly, let's lay waste to the rest of the teams on the schedule, then walk off with that trophy into the sunset.

I think Bo should take the team on a little adventure Friday night ... to Scottsbluff. Put them up in the Super 8 and then get them up at 5 a.m. Saturday to bus their butts all the way back to Lincoln. True road game ... easy win for the Huskers !! GBR

WOW ! I was up early prepping for today's game (Bloody Mary's) and happened to catch the opening scene of "Patton", God, I love that movie. I encourage all of you to go to youtube and fire up the start of the movie and the "pep talk" of Patton to his troops. I dare say Bo could ace this role with his players. The devastation after that opening scene should be used to show the past seven games against Texas. GO HUSKERS !! WEAR RED - BE LOUD - BEAT TEXAS BAD !!!!!! NU 38- TU 3

NU - 38 TX - 9 NU - Rushing 405 yds. Passing 237 yds. (T-Magic break out game - "Quit asking, I don't get nervous" TX - Rushing 183 yds. Passing 87 yds.

Did anyone notice there is no Iowa on any of the projected bowl games.

1. NO NU fumbles or interceptions 2. TM,Helu & Rex run rampant. 3. Prince smack Kearse. 4. Minimum five Locker sacks, followed by .... 5. Announcer - "Locker is down and I don't think he'll answer this call, maybe not even see the second half."

Ah, to dream like a "Squawkeye". I can only imagine.

We'll be at the "Painted Rocks" subdivision on the north side of Lake Red Rock watching the PPV with friends. Autographs used to have the games, but I'm not sure any of those are still in existence. We've been to a couple of games at The Coop, but the place needs to be bigger !!
