  1. Gangwish visited a kindergarten classroom today and read story time to them. Picture on facebook. Very cool!

      Considering the amount of pub Gangwish gets with everything he doesn, I'm surprised this wasn't covered by CNN.

      It's a personal picture from one of his former classmates at WR, who teaches...when I shared it, said it was restricted to only her audience.

  2. Has NU ever lost 5 games at home in a season?

  3. How bad is it going to be if Indiana wins this game and then MSU comes in and spanks us?

    1. 4skers89

      4skers89

      Not happening. Indiana winning that is. MSU will spank us if we continue to sleepwalk through games.

      I'm having trouble imagining how things can get worse than they are now. Sorry the Indy MSU thing isn't doing it.

  4. If DPE was healthy all year. We may be 7-0. I recall a lot of people saying he was worth at least a TD.

      If we're playing this game, how many is Corey Clement worth?

    3. C N Red

      C N Red

      I'd say 7 too. A player that's worth 7 is pretty major.

      Yeah, we went round for round on this before the season started.

  5. I wish all people like Moneyball would just leave like he did. Getting the ban hammer....

      I've read this forum for many years.(8-10) If they would impose a min post limit to start a new thread or even approve new threads this place may be 100% better. Although, this week seems very genuine. I may now drift back into the shadows.

  6. I think Stanford would blow away Northwestern if they played again. I can't believe NW held up the way they did. Stanford is impressive, I like their style, but I hate them at the same time.

    1. NUance

      I was pretty impressed by that NW win. And by the whipping of the Gophers.

      Stanford was flat out bad in NW game. They would crush them if they played them again.

  7. Alright, big money time on draftkings this weekend. Golf, CFB, and NFL

      I hate Nascar and know nothing abou tit, but played one for Draft Kings a few weeks ago. I got last place. Literally last place. Not sure what happened.

      Ha ha! That's impressive, Matty. Doubt if you could do that again if you tried. lol

  8. I really think that Riley is the right kind of guy to lead NU. However I don't like Langsdorf.

      Matty....I meant many room now if he happened to be let go. I'm sure we had room before.

  11. Did I seriously read someone saying that it's Carl Crawford's fault? Is that how far we have to go to justify the position we're in?

      Who the hell is Carl Crawford? (Yes i know who he is but we act like hes won 5 super bowls or some sh#t since. Lol). Some ppl....

    1. Warrior10

      Warrior10

      How do you like DraftKings? Those 50/50 leagues don't sound bad.

    2. Scratchtown

      Scratchtown

      I like it a lot. My buddy won 23k a couple week ago.

       

      Get into the beginner leagues first because you are allowed to play like 20 events or something before you become "veteran"

    3. Scratchtown

      It also forces you to watch and pay attention to some games that you wouldn't normally do. It's refreshing really.

  13. Funny how a shift in network changes the message. Cowherd ripping the SEC's talent. Says the Big10 is way underrated as a whole.

      He goes with the wind 98% of the time. When he doesn't, its not about sports. Its about gambling,society,etc. That's what gets him in trouble when he starts ripping the intellect of Dominicans. His own crappy BA degree from EWU didn't even help him understand the difference between Education and Intellect. Soon he will state that Ethiopians don't have good taste in food because as a whole they are so malnourished.

  14. If we had Leonard Fournette would Langsdorf only run him 7 times a game?

      It is not about production. If that were the case, then no one would be questioning the decision to play Newby over Wilbon or Ozigbo. It is about passing the eye test. When you watch the OL, do you see a consistent push off the ball, athletic bigs that can get into the flats to run block in the screen game, or clean OL play before and after the snap? These are realistic concerns. The OL is a contributing factor to the 2-3 record.

    3. QMany

      QMany

      Isn't everything a contributing factor to our record? I think the OL is way down the list of problems.

  15. What I saw last night in the Oregon/Colorado game, is that CU is better than Nebraska right now.

      No, they aren't. Oregon is experimenting at QB right now, but from what I saw from CU, they are a better football team than Illinois. Would probably be a good game.

      I'm not sure if my life is sadder right now that I care about Neb Football or the fact that Lux likes to put everyone in their place today.

  16. Well, Harbaugh and Michigan have given up 7 points in the last 15 quarters. So, there's that.

    1. VectorVictor

      VectorVictor

      But...Michigan has a new head coach. I thought you couldn't improve the first year of a new head coach...

      im a riley supporter, but i remember getting drilled for making a comment about McE hiring big name coords/assts while Riley brought osu guys

  18. The Ohio State offense is not good. The only change that took place was that Herman left and Tim Beck entered...coincidence? No, even if he isn't calling plays.

      Drew Ott, Cole Fisher,Nathan Bazata & Nate Meier. Nebraska didn't want em. They combined for 24 tackles, 4 TFLs & 1.5 sacks today for Iowa.

      Isn't Meier from Iowa?

      Warrior10, are you familiar with the name Kyle Emanuel? I don't follow recruiting closely, but this kid was from Schuyler Nebraska I believe. Ended up being FCS Defensive MVP of 2014? Whats the story on that kid, how did we miss him? I watched him play, he could've played at Nebraska easily.

  24. Common Core math isn't the way I would teach it, but I also learned the old way of memorizing math facts...I see where they are going, but I think it's completely unnecessary. IMO

      I learned cursive in 3rd grade, then never once used it after that. By 5th grade I forgot most of it.

    4. Scratchtown

      Scratchtown

      Speaking of cursive. When taking the Praxis test at UNK, we have to fill out a form saying we won't give up any of the test questions. It's like a 2 paragraph agreement we are required to write in cursive. Took me like 30 minutes.

  25. The quicker some of you realize that NU will never be what it was under TO, the better off your life will be.

      There's nothing wrong with expecting Nebraska to be competitive in the conference and every now and then be a factor in the Playoff Hunt. However neither will happen this year and that's ok.

      This is great, but I don't think that's what fans are pining for. They (we) want respectability.
