  1. You can lead a horse to prune juice, but you can't make him drink it. Nor would you want to.
  2. @Hilltop 5-star talent didn't help Luke Fickell much.
  3. It's also entirely plausible that we could've lost to Akron. I mean, they did beat the eventual Big Ten West champ just a couple weeks later.
  4. @Scarlet Overkill Something tells me Mack Brown won't be on that list in the future...
  5. @flatwaterfan You might also consider Hulu Live and PlayStation Vue. Both are around the same price as YouTube TV (Hulu Live is $5 less), and have all the channels you'd need to watch Husker games. Your connection should be OK, you're not gonna be streaming 4K onto that old TV. You might also consider a Fire TV or Chromecast, instead of the Roku. @schriznoeder They actually just announced that they're ending that, Amazon apps will be on Chromecast and Google apps will be on Fire TV soon. https://www.theverge.com/2019/4/18/18412525/youtube-amazon-fire-tv-prime-video-chromecast-return-announcement
  6. This one is similar to the above: https://saturdaytradition.com/big-ten-football/two-b1g-teams-too-much-love-two-b1g-teams-not-enough-love-preseason-polls-2019/ Apparently the way national media ranks us is determined by how excited we the fans are?
  7. Easy way to remember it:

  8. Right up there with ScottyIce's goodbye letter!
  9. @teachercd I'm 39. I didn't feel anything in particular when I looked him up, I guess I'd consider him a curiosity more than anything.
  10. Wow, this is pretty similar to my story. My parents divorced when I was just a few months old. Apparently they had a fight, and my mom took me and we stayed with Grandma for a while. Then when she returned with me, she found the apartment completely cleared out, not even my crib was there. He was never a part of my life, or at least not any part I can remember. Can't exactly say I miss him. I really don't know much about him. Only found out when I was like 13 that I have the same middle name as him. Mom remarried when I was 7, and the guy I call Dad now adopted me. Fast forward to here recently, and some life stuff got me thinking about things. And thinking turned into Googling. Found some stuff, including what I'm pretty sure is his Facebook page. Nothing too crazy, but, uhh, it didn't exactly make me interested in contacting him. Looks like he's single, but has been through at least one other divorce, and maybe a couple. I'm almost more interested in knowing whether I have any half-siblings that I don't know about, but I didn't see anything that would suggest that I do. I've decided not to pursue it any further.
  11. To me, as a series our games with Michigan State have been the most enjoyable to watch since we joined the Big Ten. It's too bad they're not in our division anymore.
  12. @MichiganDad3 Or Cody Glenn under Pelini. Gotta be careful with trying to convert guys, though. Remember that Ameer played for us mainly because we were willing to give him a shot at RB, when everybody else wanted to convert him into a safety or something.
  13. Eichorst was already a Riley fanboy long before he came to Nebraska. It started back when Eichorst was an assistant AD at South Carolina and they were looking for a coach (the search that ultimately led to them hiring Spurrier - Riley was also a candidate for that).
  14. As long as we ain't switching to anything like the NFL's retarculous sudden death OT rules, I'm OK with it.
  15. Have you ever heard of a guy by the name of Turner Gill, by any chance? Pretty obscure name to Husker fans, I know.
  16. So what, you think we need a Jamal Turner on the field this season?
  17. Oh yeah, I remember that Lightbourne guy...
  18. Those Michigan State uniforms...

      How is this any different than what Oregon wears? And, I thought they had all the “swaggiest” uniforms.

      I can't believe MSU officials saw this beforehand and still said "yea that looks awesome, lets release this horrendous mistake to the public."

      It may work for Oregon but not MSU.  Sea foam green yes for the Ducks but not for the Spartans.  These teams that try to copy never get it right.  They should have done some variation on the traditional uni's MSU wears.  As long as they were going this crazy with sea foam they should have done something with the helmet to tie it together.  

  19. Sadler needs to update his Twitter profile info....
  20. @knapplc Yeah, I pretty much assumed all of that. Didn't mean for my numbers to be taken too seriously, as I said I was only going by what the leaderboard showed. I figured that lots of posts predated the rep system, although I didn't know that there was a daily limit on reps. Even breaking things into tiers by join date might skew my numbers, since I registered here back in 2007 but didn't make this my regular board until a couple years ago.
