      I'm hoping they are back to 3-3 after next Sunday.  You know, for the sake of maths.....

  2. Anyone ever been to an Xtreme Bulls & Broncs event before? Fun times, good entertainment for the whole family?

      Never have but have gone to the Greeley Stampede rodeo a few times. The bull riding and bronc busting are definitely the highlights outside of the little bitty kids doing the mutton busting. Related- a bull rider was killed at the National Western Stock show in Denver yesterday.

      They're holding one at PBA in Lincoln in April, and tickets are pretty cheap. When I was a kid we used to go to the Aksarben rodeo pretty often, and it was usually a pretty good time. I haven't been to a rodeo in forever. Would like to go again if these are pretty decent.

  3. Anyone know where I can get some eclipse glasses?

      Couple Hy-Vee stores in Omaha got some this morning.  They are going for $5 a piece.

      Found some at a local hardware store.  The clerk said eclipse glasses were the only things they were getting calls about all morning. They got a shipment of them in this AM and that's about all they'd sold today.

      For anyone viewing with "cheap" glasses, you might want to go here to see if they are legit as there are a lot of counterfeit ones out there

  4. Anyone use Dollar Shave Club?

      After much consultation, I have joined the Dollar Shave Club. Thank you for your advice, fellow clean-shaven gents.

      Seems like a lot of work to look ridiculous.

      Change to wet shaving. Then start using a safety razor. Then switch to a straight razor. You'll never want to use those plastic multi-bladed skin tormentors again.

  5. Are pop tarts ravioli? Why or why not?

  6. Are you Mavric's cousin?

      Other than he's taller, smarter and better-looking, we get mistaken for brothers all the time.

      Hopefully he is here to work on the ticket I submitted about the problems on mobile.

  7. At  least  Husker Volleyball won.

  8. B1G Coaches screwing around with paper footballs.

     

     

  9. Bad News: Burkhead goes to the IR

     

    Good News: Burkhead can come to a Husker game and wave to the crowd

      So it’s not his waving arm/hand that is injured then?

      IR:  You don't have to play and you still get paid.  Sweet deal!

       

      I bet he gets into coach or sports radio in the next 3 years.  I also think Woodhead is trying to get a radio gig.  Look for him to be a guest "regular" with Bahe

  10. Big Ten source: It was one phone call.

      You have to remember...Michigan seems to think they are the Harvard of the Midwest...even though they are in a conference with one of the best all around academic schools in the world in NW and two of the best Engineering and Comp Science schools in Illinois and Purdue.

      I'll give her the Rutgers joke. That's about it.

       

      So Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, Penn State just get ignored, or what?

       

      (EDIT: I didn't realize there were two videos. Guess I kinda reinforced the Nebraska one, didn't I)

      Man, that was dope! she nailed how everyone feels about Rutgers and well frankly, I'm ok with her analogy of Nebraska. Oh.. and her imitation of t'OSU. So spot on!!

       

  12. Big XII football, y'all.

  13. Bill Snyder will be the keynote speaker at the Nebraska Football Coaches Clinic this year. Interesting choice.

      I can never bring myself to attend these.  The ISU coach is at our next one...but the pizza and beer that we serve is more appealing.  They are just so boring and the questions, my god, so boring.

      Excited to hear dawson and duval in kansas city in a couple weeks.  Held was there last year and you could tell the enthusiasm he had for N and coaching.  

  14. Bo Kittrell & Jacob Weinmaster came to the running club last night to talk about the Football Road Race (to benefit Team Jack). They did a "fun facts" about them as an intro. When Kittrell was 4 years old he dressed up as Scott Frost for Halloween. :D

  15. Boise State just trounced Troy 56-20.

  16. Brant Banks Nebrasketball career highlights.

      Boy, he can sure block out on those free throws!

      Well, still better than my college basketball highlights.

      That was a solid box out.

  17. Bud Crawford did a good thing.

    1. Savage Husker

      Savage Husker

      That was sweet. After round 9 the only thing I wanted was for Bud to get a knockdown on this dude and was pleasantly surprised he got the TKO in the final seconds. 

    2. ZRod

      ZRod

      Hell of a fight. He was totally in control for all but the first round or two.

    3. TonyStalloni

      TonyStalloni

      First time I've seen Crawford fight and was impressed. He did what it took to win and avoided his opponents strong points.

  18. Caleb Tannor will be running ALL THE STAIRS! :D

      What the...:rollin

       

      Did anyone comment about it after the game?  Kinda curious what it was about, but funny nonetheless!

       

    3. Savage Husker

      Hahah but I doubt that happens again

      Perfectly timed.  Too bad the cameras caught him.

  19. CBS just used an interesting clip to promote tomorrow's bracket show. It's Husker Fans celebrating getting into the NCAA tourney from 2014.

      Possibly an omen from the basketball gods.

      Probably just baiting us. There were a few team that win today that weren’t suppose to.

      I liked him in 42 and Black Panther.  I didn't even know he was sick, so it was totally shocking.  RIP

    4. Cdog923

      Cdog923

      @The Dude No one did. He was diagnosed in 2016, so he was fighting it the entire time he was playing Black Panther. 

  21. Chris Peterson stepping down at Washington.

      Yeah, Eichorst actually thought about making a play for Peterson.  But while he had his Rand McNally road map spread out on his desk trying to find Seattle, he said "Heh, there's Corvallis.  I think we could get their coach--uhhh, whatsisname."

      He was the guy I wanted if Bo ever got canned.  This shocks me.

  22. Coach Held feeling it today.

     

     

  23. Congratulations to Jason Ankrah on his first High School Head Coach position.

      I wonder if he is teaching too?

       

       

  24. Cook exuded confidence when the season ended. Every interview, he sounded so sure of this team. Even with the tough draw, he seemed to know where they were headed. That's a coach who knows his team.

    1. TonyStalloni

      TonyStalloni

      That was such a fun match to watch. Especially the last set with each team rallying and finally Illinois broke.  

    2. krc1995

      krc1995

      I was impressed in the 4th set maybe? When a time out was called and Cook made no changes even though it was late and we were down.

      Haha. Iowa between Rutgers and Maryland.

      Iowa Schmiowa, that's what I say.

      Also illustrates how good the Cornhuskers were in the pre-WWII era - they were one of the most dominant teams in the country. A lot of people tend to think of the Devaney era as being the beginning of Nebraska greatness, but really it was more like he brought the team out of a dark era and returned them to national prominence.

       

      That previous dark age lasted about 23 years. Let's hope we can bring home a conference championship before our current drought reaches that mark...
