      On game day, Barry's is a blast.  I have not been there during a regular non-game time.

      I imagine he could shave a few 10ths off if he’d cut his hair properly.

      Long hair works just like Samson....the longer it grows the stronger you get.  As you get older and lose the hair....well you get the picture.  :D

      Can not confirm. Have very long hair, not much stronger than I was with super short hair 6 years ago.

      I want this to be a safe space for pronoun-concerned posters, so maybe annually. If there's more concern, then I may update more often.

      That's the lore that comes with cult classics though.  But for me, this one lives up to the hype.  I remember seeing it when I was too young to see it not long after it came out.

      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.  

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

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      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.

      @Redux I am happy to make a bet with you that Wisconsin is not dead and will beat Illinois. I hate them and would love them to die but they will stick around and compete still.

      Hopefully not Maryland. We play them the 2nd to last game of the season next year.

      TCU would only be 4 hours from home in Channelview, TX.

       

      Plus: 

      Quote

      TCU needs a grad transfer quarterback, because of questions surrounding Justin Rodgers’ injury and TCU’s quarterback situation in general. Hurts, while not a prolific passer, has a better track record than most quarterbacks in the country as far as success is concerned, and he threw for 40 touchdowns to just 10 interceptions in his two seasons as a starter for Alabama.

  18. Fitz says he isn't going anywhere. Northwestern for life.

     

    Great. He's good for the B1G West.

      If it was any other coach, I'd say "He gone"

      But he is loyal and might be the next Snyder

      It would just be weird to see him anywhere but Northwestern.

      As a Packer fan I kinda hope he stays, too. I'm not a fan of hiring college coaches.

       

  19. 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.

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

      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.

      @JJ Husker Trick question; there's no such thing as a middling Prince song. 

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      @Cdog923 you are correct. Compared to Taylor Swift songs, none of Prince’s are middling.

  21. Holy Moly. Minnesota lost to Oregon.

     

    I thought Nebraska had a 50/50 chance to beat Minnesota and advance to the Final Four. Now I think we've got a 60/40 shot to beat the Ducks.

     

    Seriously did not see that coming.

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Yeah, that one was a surprise. I think it makes our path a little more manageable. Minnesota has seemed to have our number this year.

    2. TonyStalloni

      TonyStalloni

      It also takes out the home crowd factor that Minnesota would have enjoyed. I think Nebraska beat Oregon once this season if I heard the right and I think we are a much better team now than we were earlier in the year.

      O/U 12 months sanctions coming down at Ohio State?

       

      Can't wait to see what his excuse is this time when he takes the USC job in a year or two.  

       

      SHELLEY.  I GON BEEN HEALED FROM THE DEMONS.  WE'RE GOING TO CALI...CALI...CALI.

      Yep, as bad as the Riley years were, Bo still needed to go when he did for multiple reasons. MR sucked but at the end of the day (Bo Pelini™) I'm glad it happened.
