  1. I wonder how many accounts registered here in the middle of the off-season are from people who have been banned from this site...

      Seems like an odd time to do it.  Much easier to blend in during the season especially if you wanna spew nonsense in the Toxic Wasteland Hellhole that are the game threads.

      lol, funny you ask that. i was banned way back during the Mike Anderson era for calling him out as an A-hole. I've since only read the board and not actually participated in conversations using my phone. Sometime in April I think is when I learned that this IP was cleared and though I've had access to post I've chosen to simply read. I've learned that my "Angry Old Man Syndrome" is real so its best I keep my opinions to myself. It is nice to know after 8 years of being blocked that I have access now. :bang:snacks::wasted

  2. Not exactly the kind of thing Zac Taylor wants for his first season... https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/27053888/bengals-top-pick-williams-likely-season

      Bengals fans know that if it can go wrong it will.This is just another example.

      Yep, this is just a normal occurrence for the Bengals. Horrible franchise and awful place for Zac Taylor to have landed. 

  3. Yeah, that's plausible. Maybe with a win to start the season and little more game experience ahead of Colorado, things would've snowballed and some of those close losses could've turned into close wins. I was saying as much during the season. My point is that it's also plausible that we would've ultimately ended up 3-9 if we'd played Akron.
  4. @NUinID Sure, but we were kinda doing everything we could to lose too, early last season. Sooo many turnovers and penalties.
  5. Nah, that season was doomed even if we hadn't played USC. Painful as the USC game was, you could pretty much see where things were going after we barely eked out a win against Wake Forest the week before (which some seem to have forgotten about - oh look, yet another end-around that we can't defend!).
  6. I still don't think it's a given that we would have beaten Akron. They did beat Northwestern (eventual B1G West champ) just a couple weeks later. Yeah, we should have beaten them, but there was still a lot of mess being cleaned up with the team at that time. I mean, we should have beaten Colorado - we were the better team on the field for about 58 minutes of the game, and it wasn't particularly close. But boy did we ever stink things up in those other two minutes...
  7. Rivals currently ranks KU's recruiting class #17. 247 has Nebraska's class at #80.

      We had a top 10 class under Riley for awhile.

      Why would you make this comparison?

      We have 5 commits, two or three 4* and one to three 3*

      KU has 20 commits, no 4* and 14 to 19 three stars.

      Geeze, I didn't mean to draw some grand sweeping "we're all doomed" conclusion about it. I just thought it was kind of a striking contrast. That's it.

  8. When we joined the Big Ten, we were coming off back-to-back 10 win seasons. I'd hardly call that struggling. But it's OK, @Huskers93-97, you're far from the only one with a selective memory of the Pelini era.
  9. Hi, new person, welcome to HuskerBoard!
  10. Looks like that pic is hotlink protected. If anyone can't get it to load, here it is:

    If you're using Firefox, it's probably because you have tracking protection set to Strict. Try opening the Menu, go to Content Blocking, and set it to Standard instead of Strict.

    @knapplc Sure, rearranging things would mostly just be a matter of changing the order attributes above, and this would make avatars square: .cAuthorPane_photo img { border-radius: 0; }
  14. Ahh, that time of year for another thread like this again, eh? I'll reiterate my previous stance on this: something from this century, please.

    I could give you some CSS to change the layout if you want. It would just need to be copied & pasted in. Just as a quick & dirty test in my browser, this is what I came up with. If you're interested, I could polish it up a little more. /* user info container */ .cAuthorPane_info { display: flex; flex-direction: row; flex-wrap: wrap; width: 170px; } .cAuthorPane_info li { order: 20; } /* user title icon container */ .cAuthorPane_info li:nth-child(2) { order: 0; } /* user title icon */ .cAuthorPane_info li:nth-child(2) img { width: 20px; } /* user title text */ .cAuthorPane_info li:nth-child(1) { /*! width: 100px; */ flex: 0 0 150px; text-align: left; order: 1; box-sizing: border-box; padding-left: 1em; } /* user group text (members/donors/mods/admins) */ .cAuthorPane_info li:nth-child(4) { flex: 0 0 150px; text-align: left; order: 3; box-sizing: border-box; padding-left: 1em; } /* user group icon container */ .cAuthorPane_info li:nth-child(5) { order: 2; } /* user group icon */ .cAuthorGroupIcon { width: 20px; } /* avatar container */ .cAuthorPane_photo { flex: 0 0 100%; order: 10; }
  16. And then there's also the part where they kicked #2 Ohio State's a$$ all over the place.
  17. There appears to be a few rap songs with that name. This one was uploaded in 2009:
  18. I was OK with having Penn State as an annual cross-division matchup, as brief as that was...
  19. Are you a Penn State fan or something?
  20. @knapplc What's supposed to be the thing to watch is that Oklahoma's third-tier media rights expire in 2022, and a new post-2022 deal is supposed to be announced next year. Supposedly Fox Sports is going in hard on that deal to help ease OU's path into the Big Ten and BTN. Supposedly.
  21. Hello, CD listeners. We've come to the point in this album where those listening on cassette (or records) will have to stand up (or sit down) and turn over the record (or tape). In fairness to those listeners, we'll now take a few seconds before we begin side two.

     

    Thank you. Here's side two.

      Yeah, I know, but it was trippy reading that only to hear a song from the album come on.

      @OH HSKR FAN Yep! Played after Runnin' Down a Dream at the end of Side 1 on the CD version (and in turn most versions you find online).

  22. I never understood why, after all the work they've done, they couldn't put something over those corners...
  23. Uhh, little off on the dates there, Gerry. We officially joined on July 1, 2011, which will be 8 years ago next month. The agreement to join was on June 11, 2010, ie 9 years ago tomorrow (I can remember the date because it's my brother's birthday, and I remember talking about the news with him.)
