  1. Please do not ask Ed O. to speak.

      It’s a painful listen

      Did he change his shirt at half time?  In the first half he looked like a teething toddler

       

  2. Richt to Retire?  Did not see that coming.

      Didn’t Diaz just get tarred and feathered by Wisky?  What I am missing?  

      Edit: Oh I see Diaz was not there for the bowl game, ok I guess I’ll give him a shot. ;)

      Let's not pretend Richt wouldn't have been a substantially better hire than Riley.

      Riley led to Frost > 4 years of 7-10 wins under Richt with some top 25 recruiting classes before retiring

      Believe he was promoted to an actual defensive assistant (LB?) after they fired Stoops mid-year.

      Bob either took some head shots in his playing days or gets the best weed 

  4. Apparently Minnesota players are allergic to bowls, with several players suspended due to rules violations  Although having to sit out a bowl in Detroit seems less punishment than having to play in the game.

  5. 118 days till Spring Game!  258 till next game day.  

  6. can't imagine how disappointing it would be to have to settle for the Pinstripe Bowl against last year's bowl opponent.  Second only to not making a bowl at all.

      i wonder how excited both of these teams are to play in a bowl? 

    3. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      At least they beat the rival and there is an actual football stadium involved in their bowl, which they must be thrilled about being in one at all.  Plus game weather won't be a factor.

      How can the ensure a team doesn’t revisit the same bowl back to back, top tier bowls, but they can’t ensure non exciting rematches

  7. UCF vs LSU

      Yeah, i see no way UCF loses this one.

      I'd love to see UCF go undefeated, but I'd be shocked if they are in this one without Milton.

  8. Toying with the idea of just wrapping the keyboard/mouse box for the new computer we just got my MIL, and let her think that's all she got (for awhile).  Is that too mean to do to an 88 year old?

    1. 4skers89

      4skers89

      She might try to plug them into a wall outlet.  Should have gotten her a laptop.

    2. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      It might be meaner to actually give a functional computer to an 88 year old.

    3. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      Haha @JJ Husker - she's had one for several years but lately laments about how she wants a new one.  Best to make her happy for her remaining years.

  9. Juco Nat'l Championship game on now, on CBS Sports, featuring our RB recruit, Dedrick Mills

      51 degrees and EMCC is dressed like it's 10 below. It's probably a good thing the Ariz Western coach will be at GCCC next year.

    3. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      Agree with the coaching decisions being head scratching in this one.  But, hey, it's a football game.  And if you like defense, which I do, it was entertaining for what it was.

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Yeah, the defense was good on both sides. But I wanted to see Mills get loose. Just seems like GC shoulda tried a few things to break the log jam. Not very creative.

  10. Someone just shared this countdown clock with me.  https://countingdownto.com/?c=2326116

      That depressed me 278 days to wait.

      It always seems like the time from January till football practice starts in August drags on forever but the 3 months of the Husker football season flies by so quickly.  

    3. Moiraine

      According to that clock, we play our first game at midnight!

  11. ISU switching to spices (SALT/PEPPER) instead of condiments?

  12. SMU vs Memphis.  UGLY.  No one wants to win.

  13. I SWORE I was watching Jamal Lord out there today.

      They were just a few short side options (and a punt returner) away....

      @JJ Husker I counted three drops that could have been game changers in the third quarter. I think had we done ANYTHING to disrupt the momentum in the third and everything changes. Love the team, love the hustle, love that they're playing their hearts out right now. I think we just had some bad luck with both RBs being beat up and some drops. 

    3. ScottyIce

      ScottyIce

      Obviously everything changes. Do we win? Idk, it's more likely. Everything after that changes though, so who knows.

      @ScottyIce Hey, no qualifying your hypothetical. :lol:

  15. According to this article, someone was awfully sure Frost was going to coach the Gators.  :laughpound https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/sec-football/scott-frost-heir-apparent-florida-nebraska-tennessee/

      Right now according to 24/7 Nebraska is 28th and Florida is 21st.  Not a great deal of separation there.

      To be honest, I was very concerned he wasn't coming here for all the same reasons that article pointed out.  That was without the SEC bias that this site obviously has.  Rationally, it made a lot of sense for him to stay in Florida which makes me that much more thankful he is here.

    4. ScottyIce

      ScottyIce

      Never a concern from me, thanks to @Hedley Lamarr

  16. Are the recently departed players completely dropping out of school or just quitting the team but still enrolled?

    1. ZRod

      ZRod

      I believe they have to remain enrolled to maintain eligibility.

    2. Scarlet Overkill
    3. ZRod

      ZRod

      Actually I retract my previous statement. I don't think they have to be enrolled unless there is a conference rule that says they ha e to. Nothing I read says they have to be in school after they want to transfer, just that the 5 year clock is always ticking.

  17. This would be a good time for a Riley-esque upset.

    1. TonyStalloni

      I was thinking the same thing as I drove home yesterday afternoon and heard Matt say we go to Madison next Saturday.

  18. Live pregame action - pretty cool

      I hope to god Jackson does not have to cover Rondale Moore too much today or it will be a really long day.

  19. What's worse, Li'l Red, or Philly Flyers new mascot, Gritty

      Lil' Red. Gritty's Twitter presence is already light years ahead of what we could even conceive for Lil' Red.

      The video wouldn’t change my mind, Lil red.

  20. Why can't we get something super sexy for turnovers like FSU's "Turnover Backpack".

      A real ear of corn, and the guy who got the turnover has to eat it. Floss and toothpicks on standby.

      What about a turnover combine? Whoever gets the turnover gets to drive the combine up and down the field on east stadium.

  21. Feels great to have anticipation for a game again.  Last few years it's kind of felt like a chore to keep my obligation as a fan.

      I concur, so dilly dilly.  Tiwards the end of last season I didnt even set my alarm clock for the early games and if I overslept and missed the start of the game it was like oh well.  This year im on here an hour bwfore the game with a countdown going.

  22. LSU:  where good B1G QB transfers go to suck

      It's not that I think Burrow sucks.  I think LSU just doesn't develop them well or have good game plans for any of their QB's.  Burrow is better than what he's showing, I know he is.  And yeah, he's not looked overly terrible the past few drives.

    3. krc1995

      krc1995

      I’m not sure if the refs aren’t in on it. Feels like the game not being played on the field 

    4. Mavric

      Mavric

      Burrows getting some talk from the booth but he's currently 10/23 for 133 yards and no TDs.  That's pretty pedestrian.

  23. Any students on HB going to the Boneyard Bash?

      Oh JJ...your daughter is attending a "boneyard" bash...so glad I don't have a daughter (HAHAHA)

      JJ Husker

      @teachercd it gets worse. She said she was going to the boneyard bash......and then to a party.:o And she met a football player on Friday. 1 week, 1 week and things are headed for trouble fast :lol:

    4. teachercd

      teachercd

      Haha!  JJ...I remember a few months ago when you said the old "She might party...but I doubt it...she really isn't like that"  Haha!  Time for some home schooling!

  24. I hope my fellow Pennsylvanians are staying dry.
