jayhawker

let me just remind you guys of 2005 and KU playing TX. There were many phantom calls and a very big BS offensive pass interference call against KU that cost us the game. It was the game where Mangino accused the B12 of cheating to allow TX a chance at going undefeated. I don't remember now how much he got fined for it, but it was all I could think about last night while watching the game. Those last two PI calls down the sideline was utter BS.

well we can go ahead and settle that one. You want to pick the sig/av?

 

Sure, but let's wait until our game next week. If we beat KSU I'll have you wear something like, "Congratulations, Nebraska Cornhuskers: 2009 Big XII North Champs."

 

I won't be too hard on you. A year is a long time to wear another team's sig/av. I'll make it somewhat palatable for you.

hit me with it when you get time, remember, i would not have been nice to you. just being honest.

Eh. I knew what I was getting into when I made the bet. I see no reason to kick a man when he's down.

 

And to be honest, I would have forgotten about this if you hadn't said something. That's another reason not to hammer you. I'm not in the business of gloating, especially when it wasn't my butt out there on the field.

i'm really not that down. I was looking for improvement from our OL and I saw it. I was down after CU, and KSU, but at least saturday we lost to a good team.

i probably owe a few of you some bets. please refresh my mind if i do.

 

Here's the only one that I'm aware of...

 

Lets also not forget that since 2002 NU has beaten only one team that finished ranked.

 

Let's also not forget that NU had its worst coach in school history during most of that period.

 

Let's also not forget that KU didn't finish ranked last year, and likely won't finish ranked this year, so that's pretty much a moot point.

 

I betting they finish higher than NU.

 

Sig bet? I'll wear a KU sig/av here for a year if KU finishes with a better Big 12 record than NU. You've gotta wear an NU sig/av for a year if they don't. Tie is a push.

 

Yeah i'll take that.

What a fun game to watch, it was nice to see our O come alive for a few plays again. I loved seeing the OL dominate your DL, i did not see that coming. Asante, that hit was uncalled for and you were not already diving at Reesing when he slid. But it's ok, you apparently cannot injure Reesing no matter how hard you try. Congratulations on the victory, and good luck against ksu. I think i am going to be a sker fan for that one.

i probably owe a few of you some bets. please refresh my mind if i do.

Thanks.

If he is the #1 overall pick, won't he land on one of the worst franchises in the NFL?

 

Probably, just saying Oak and Det are horrible and I wouldn't wish for any Husker to be associated with them

 

Some team could always trade for the pick as well

 

 

the redskins are in the running for the worst team this year as well. although, they most likely wont go D line because they just signed a monster deal with Haynseworth, but imagine Suh and Haynesworth at both DT positions........

can we please get back to Suh, and not killing Reesing. If the chiefs got suh they would just trade him to Minnesota anyways.

My guess is Husker fans will outnumber Jayhawk fans on Saturday. This is the migration game and there will be more red than blue.. should be interesting.

 

We win by 24 thanks to a homefield advantage/world class defense

 

They do seem to have jumped ship quickly. I guess being a basketball school will do that to you?

Yep they will be National Champs in hoops this year !!!

actually i prefer to talk only football until after the season, that's when the real bball season starts anyway. I love college football. Going to have 6-7 guys from omaha down this weekend for pheasant, going to be a fun house to be in, or it's going to suck big time.

I'm here. Thinking it is going to be a good game. Probably low scoring. KU 13 UNL 12

Please explain how Nebraska gets 12 points then make a call to Watson.

 

Here is how, 4 FG's.

 

I would lean towards a Defensive touchdown, a field goal thanks to a turnover putting the O in field goal range so when they go 3 & out they still can kick it, and a safety!

that's really not that far fetched. The one thing i am worried about is last weekend KU took another step back, while you guys took a step forward. We need this win and I think we can get it, I also can see the team saying f it and losing by 20.

Dear Coach Mangino,

 

Please don't eat Suh and Crick before the game.

 

Respectively,

Huskerboard.com

LOL, ok, I was really not expecting that. Nice show.

Did you writre a P.S. to Crick as well?

 

If not, you probably should.

 

I'm just pretending that Suh is the only DL you have.

It's a bold strategy...we'll see if it pays off.

I'm doubting it. Hey Suh, what do you think of the Chiefs. They wear Red also.

Jayhawker,

 

if you could ask your D to not show up until the 3rd quarter so we could get 10 points before the 4th Q thx

 

 

GBR

 

 

don't forget baby steinK

are you kidding me? Our D might show up at the bar after the game, they might not even show up there. Your QB (whichever it is) should have a big "breakout" day against our D. Ummm, any chance Carl would want a DC job down in lawrence next year?

where can I get tickets?!

there should be plenty of tickets, most of our fans are just bandwagon football fans. Go to kuathletics.com to look for tickets in the marketplace. Otherwise you can probably pick them up cheap in front of Memorial come saturday.

If not, you probably should.

I haven't gotta see KU much this year, how's the oline playing?

HORRIBLE. Looking for at least 8 sacks from your front 4, propably 2-4 from you LB's. So 12 sacks and probably two dead QB's. This season has been a long season.

I am sure he will play nice

and if Pick comes in, don't break him either.

Please don't break Reesing, we need him for mizzou. Thank you in advance.

Sorry, I read this, and didn't respond the first time. but you have guilted me into it.

 

All this talk about changing the offense is rediculous. So i avoid it. It's not going to happen mid-season. Do what you can this far into the season, and make the most of it.

 

But, on the brighter note, this post allows me to show off my super duper new sig pic, custom made by my new BFF The Maudfather, with the help up my future groomsman, Big Red Iowan

I agree that its ridiculous to suggest we completely change the offense in the middle of the season. However it definitely needs to be changed IMO. Simplify & dumb down the playbook, place extreme emphasis on proper blocking by the O-Line, stop making the run so damn predictable & stop running so many screen passes (maybe the screen pass isnt the problem, im just not a fan of the play & I feel its Watson runs it too much)

don't worry, by the time you guys switch to the spread, the rest of college football will be running something new.

Jayhawker....I havent seen you around here much this past week after Iowa State almost knocked off your Jayhawks. Have you been hiding or have I just missed you? Cause you were sure talkin up ur team big time prior to Sat....and then they looked like a national title contender against IaSt. LOL

you probably haven't seen me around much since the season started. ISU almost beat us last year also. they had a 20-0 lead at the half. It's how the game goes. You blackshirts could get rocked for 50 this sat, i don't think they will but that's why the games are played. I will still talk up our team, but will save the "hate" for when our game gets closer, until then I hope you drop a game because of our south schedule.

I think it will be a good game.

not everyone can play LaLa, Ark ST, and FL. A.

 

I'm sorry, i don't see any top 10 teams there either.

 

Probably because you left out VT...

 

yeah kinda did that on purpose, how is a 2-2 team still ranked?

Hunh? Do you even follow football? VT is 4-1.

 

I saw what Suh did against an experienced OL. I'm going to love to see what he'll do against 3 first year starters.

I was talking about OU. Only 2 loss team ranked still. I'm sure Suh will get his against KU. I just am not sure he can catch sharp and his 4.2 speed.
