  1. Is anyone else haveing any major-Online glitches? When I first got the game yesterday, I got a message on the main menu that said something to the effect of "unable to register my online-pass", and told me to visit EAsports.com..... I messed around there for a little while, not accomplishing much of anything. After that I restarted the game and online was working fine... Today, same story. Except I've restarted 5 times now, and still no online features appear on the main screen, except for the online-menu that tells me I can't register my online-pass. Also the load time for just the main menu, after the 'hiesman into', is taking FOREVER, I waited over 3-4 minuts twice today whenever I've logged-out & restarted the game. Did I just get a crappy copy of the game or is anybody else having these issues?
  2. Huskers Illustrated has us at 14th(3rd B10), we're 21st(5th B10) on Scout, and Rivals has us as 8th(1st in B10) when going by "average player/star ranking". . . . Which is the most important category, esp in this small of a class. If we can pull in QL, Peat and Fuller, not to mention Diggs, Ford, and Afalava(all of whom we could/should land), we'll be a top 15 class on all three major sites both overall, and in "average ranking." There is nothing to worry about at this point, imo.
  3. It doesn't matter what conference your in, if you beat yourself, you won't beat your opponent ...
  4. Oh boy, people... throwin away years of tradition, now we will never win another game again because of the logo on the field and for that reason only... I agree with hosker, except I wish they wouldn't have put it on in the first place - and I certainly don't want to see it all year. My hope is that it is gone after the home opener. And not because of tradition....just because it is a bad logo. C'mon, THAT'S the best they could come up with??? Me neither, but if its only for this season, I can understand it.
  5. Oh boy, people... throwin away years of tradition, now we will never win another game again because of the logo on the field and for that reason only... I didn't say anything about losing games because of this logo or it messing with tradition. My opinion has nothing to do with the tradition of. . . . Anything really. But thanks for taking the conversation there. I don't think it will effect the outcome of any game, I just think our field looks good without it. . . . And its not like I need to be reminded of which conference we play in, so why bother?
  6. It doesn't look bad, but I'll be a little upset if this is on the field for years to come. This year is fine, but our field looks good without it, imo
  7. Joslyn Art Museum is worth a stop while in Omaha. . .
  8. CBS still owns the rights to that game, and won't let that game go to another network without making bank. . . IDK if ESPN-classic can even get it.
  9. This is the first time someone has posted a pic of one of our players planking. That doesn't mean that planking started in Nebraska today, any more than the fact that the pic of the player's BBQ that I just posted the other day means that was the first time anyone had BBQ'd in Nebraska. Wait... You're telling me we finally got BBQ in Nebraska? What the f#*k is BBQ??? Is it like grape-drink?
  10. I thought Tulsa would be a good fit for him when I first heard they were an option for him. . . Any word on when anything official will come out?
  11. Good luck to Cody and KSU!! I know several KSU fans that will be ecstatic with the news. . . . GBR!!!
  12. Agreed, up until this past season, SC had been a better defensive team than offensive, overall.... They are on a nice upswing right now, it seems they found some consistency on both O and D this past season. It'll be interesting if they can keep it going. . . .
  13. It must be the amount allotted, because there is no way that Baylor has an average of 15K students throughout the year. . . .
  14. among other things, yes. Like their own physical abilities, and the amount of talent they have around them....
  15. Wow. Could not disagree with you more. You're talking about one of the most physically gifted and aggressive DTs of all time. Not just recently, not just at Nebraska, but for any team, anywhere, ever. And you're saying that not just one, but two of our current players are "just as special?" Crick has had some pretty good games in his tenure. But where are you getting the impression that Steinkuhler is even remotely as good as Suh? Which game(s) can you point to where Steinkuhler has had a significant impact? I can point to several where he's had little to no impact at all. I've talked a lot of football in my day. More than is probably good for me. I've heard some bold predictions. But this.... this is madness. Your taking the "special" comment out of context. I don't mean that they will be in the Heisman running(although that'd be great!), I am say that, at the very least, they will be as productive and dominant at the college level as Suh/Crick. They will take as many double teams when it's all said and done. And that my friend is "special". Suh wasn't considered one of the best of all-time until his senior year. Up to that point, he was by all accounts very average, with some potential. . . The same can be said of Crick and Stein at this point, but I regress, that is not the point I am trying to make. Steinkuhler had a more productive sophomore year than what I saw Suh had his Sophomore campaign. . . . No Stein didn't dominate any games, but either did Suh, until his Senior year. . . . And I can see that being under the Pelini brothers for five years will probably pay off bigger for Stein in the end, than it did for Suh. I don't see how that is that hard to understand or expect. Crick and Suh's junior campaigns were fairly similar statistically. . . Crick is not Suh, but Crick WILL have to be accounted for just as much as Suh was his senior year(the same can probably be said of Stein down the road), that is "domination" to me. With as deep as our D --esp. the DL-- is, it should be easier for Crick/Stein to control any given game than Suh/Crick. It is crazy to expect anything less, imo.
  16. You have weird logic. It doesn't take into account the individual at all. You're pretty much saying "They've been around Bo more than Suh was, so obviously they'll be better." By that logic, I could go study with them for 4 years and be better than Suh, because that's 2 years more Pelini than Suh had. It just doesn't make sense. Suh was and is an anomaly of a player. No, that is not what I am saying at all... Suh was very special, no doubt. But to say Crick and Stein aren't capable of being equally as dominant is low-balling them a bit, imo. . . . Both Crick and Stein have all the physical tools necessary to control any given game(sorry, I thought this was common knowledge). . . . I am not saying anyone can learn Pelini's system and go out and throw 300lbs OL around like rag dolls. By that logic Bo or Carl could line up at DT and play better than Suh, because they know the system better than anybody else. I am saying Crick and Stein are just as special as Suh. Maybe not as physically gifted, but all around they will be just as good, if not better.
  17. Better than Crick & Suh? Wow......here's hoping! Why won't they be?. . . . Maybe "more dominant" is the wrong term... But at the very least they will be as good as Suh/Crick They have had both, more time in Pelini's system, and better players/experience on all levels around them than what Suh had. . . . I think the only thing that might hold them back is playing against bigger & more run-oriented OL's. And maybe the fact that they have more talent around them will hold them back some statistically, but it certainly will not stop them from effecting the game as much, if not more-so, than Suh/Crick, imo.
  18. I liked the articles, didn't see any thing that is obviously wrong with any of it.... Mentioning Okafor, while failing to mention Heard or Abdullah is my biggest problem. Crick & Steinkuhler will be more dominant than Suh & Crick, imo.... Dennard will be as good as usual, but with less experience playing along side of him, I can see how he might be squeezed off of the POY list.
  19. Hmm, I must have blocked that out of my memory.... Weird.
