Not to sound like a prick, but I’m going to be really happy when we finally get to the day when he’s no longer mentioned. Really not meaning to sound like a d bag, but I know it’ll come off that way, but to use Coach Chinander’s word of the day, the dude is/was a turd, a two parter where half sinks and the other floats.... we should just quit the Diaco references forever.

You prick!  Just kidding.  I agree.

I don't think those will look that bad if they're worn in a night game.

 

As an aside, that mannequin is well-endowed.

   Uh, yeah, it didn’t go unnoticed.  Other than that, they’re just hid-e-ous

Good news / Bad news: Nebraska will beat Wisconsin and Iowa this year, but you will lose to Minnesota.

there is already a thread for “Bold Predictions”.

It’s rigged, I tell ya.  Not even top 10 for MSU?

I usually don't mind mediocre announce teams as long as the camera work allows me to adequately see the action on the field (which is not always a given when we have the scrub crew).

 

I would still rather have Mowins and Boiman or whoever else compared to the awful pay-per-views that we had to suffer through a few years back. Remember seeing this awesome ad 500 times per game?

 

Ah, good ol’ PPV days.

Not sure who’s worse, Rocky or Beth.  Ugh.

No one has commented on Stanley Jacksons hair... 

I did last night when I first saw him rambling on.  “WHO CUTS YOUR HAIR?!”

They must have a fixer - the article said none of the guys will be charged.  (Tongue in cheek, people)

Quote

Three other players -- senior Jeremiah Stovall, freshman Myles Farmer and sophomore Maurice Washington -- were cited this off-season for marijuana-related offenses.

But, this week, Prenda said he wasn't charging any of them "at this time as a result of our office’s continued evaluation of the effect of enactment of LB657 on our ability to prosecute marijuana and paraphernalia cases.”

Body monitors to predict injuries before they happen??? What is this magic you speak of?

If you watched 2AM’s last interview, you may have noticed the “harness” he had on that said “Catapult”.  It gathers metrics so that you don’t overload to the point of injury.

That statue of liberty play against Minnesota was pretty great.

It shot right into my favorite play of all time

Right tool for the job - you need both!

The “Tate Plan”.  Next short stops:  San Diego State, followed by CFL Training Camp

This took a dark turn in a hurry.  Beyond sickening.

Me with a tinfoil hat on:  did he actually die?  Or was it completely staged (and set up to make it look like this was the end result by the “alleged” previous attempt)

also some interesting “implications” from this tweet:

Yeah that's the catch here. 9-3 is obviously improvement for this program but I think most people, myself included, expect and want to do more than simply beating the teams we should beat. I mean really, is simply not shooting yourself in the foot anything to strive for? Unfortunately we've been conditioned over the past years to some pretty mind numbing performances. So on one hand, not beating ourselves is much better but on the other hand it also should be an unquestionable expectation.

 

Like I said, I'm expecting 10 or 11 wins but that might be skipping the intermediate step of simple improvement and just not beating ourselves. I guess that's why I'm excited for this season. For the first time in a long time that kind of leap seems possible. Before Frost got here there was some forced hope that things might not be as bad as ithey appeared but that was coupled with the deep down knowledge that it wasn't likely. Now, finally, we can get back to having expectations of excellence without being completely delusional about it.

Re: not beating ourselves — I made a comment last year to someone how we’ve gone from being beaten to beating ourselves, which is a GREAT SIGN, because that can be fixed.

Everyone in the country will know the name Wandale Robinson by the end of the season.  From everything I've read and heard from people that have seen him in practice, this dude is special.  Add that to an expanded role for Mo and now its even harder to cover Spielman, our best player in the passing game.  I feel like people are forgetting just how damn good JD is.  I also think we have multiple options to carry the ball out of the backfield that are very talented.  This all being led by one of the 5 best QB in the country?

 

I am really not concerned about the offense.  I believe they will average at or near 40 ppg.

I recently read on a MN forum how our defense won’t be able to stop anyone because they can’t stop Wan’Dale, a kid who is just out of high school.  I get a kick how we’re in their heads, rent free.

Suicide or suicided?

Gosh, I didn’t see THIS coming at all.  And by that I mean, totally saw it coming and I’m still not sure what to make of it.

I still get chills every time I watch that Miami video. It's by far the most popular hobby thing I've ever done.

Outstanding work!

Poor Noa ... these people keep asking him the same questions repeatedly.  He’s a good sport.

I accidentally clicked 2 stars and it doesn't look like I can change it. I am fully on board with the hype though! 

Ooopsie.  Ok, you’re forgiven.  I clicked 5 stars to balance it.  Not like anyone really cares (I don’t think) about thread ranking.  Just thought it was odd.

I'm ready to run thru a wall after this one.

I think I might have to watch the whole game soon.

Whoever gave this thread 2 stars needs to run some stadium stairs
