      In yet another contrast, Nebraska self-reported a textbook violation that was hardly a violation and was solely based off some student's misunderstanding of a book list. The NCAA likely would never have known had we not self-reported, yet we were given two year's probation and are subject to the repeat-offender clause if anything else happens for five years after the report. Gurley didn't self-report, he was "snitched" out, and to my knowledge Georgia faces no probation ov...

      yeah, pretty annoying how the ncaa just enforces rules however they see fit. i think they are getting scared of offending big programs now because they sense their obsolescence.

  2. Fall camp must be close, the "OL Is much improved" chatter has begun anew.

      The pre-season sunshine pumping never ends, and it usually never pans out/ends in disappointment.

      How about anyone with any speculation on the dance team? What are we dealing with this year?

  3. Forget HB shirts . . . we need HB belt buckles.

  4. Fro . . . what's up with MU paying for rings celebrating their 2010 North Championship?

      Recruiting...they want to show off one more ring to the recruits

      I'd think that sort of thing would be more useful in negative recruiting. "Do you really want to go to a school who celebrates finishing second in their division?"

  7. Great breakdown of what to expect from UCLA offense: http://www.bruinsnation.com/2011/12/22/2646952/mazzone-offense-philosophy

      Thank you for sharing! Some of the things in here make a lot of sense as to why Bo likes to play two gap against spread teams.

      Interesting read. But it is from two years ago so they might be doing some different things now, especially with a different style QB.

      I agree with you Mav, but as uneducated as I once was football scheme-wise, I feel some of the basic concepts are the same. I've done a lot of reading on our defense and its fun to read on their offense.

  8. Happy 150th anniversary of firing on Ft. Sumter day.

  9. Happy Fun Ball. It's happy. It's fun. It's Happy Fun Ball.

  10. Hawkeye in-law informed me that NU will never win in the Big Ten because they use something called a "play action pass."

      I've never heard of it. Sounds like it is virtually unstoppable. Not sure why more conferences don't use it.

      It must be that Nicaraguan tobacco. It has a real funny smell.

  14. Hoped to see more buckle updates this morning. First thing I thought of when I woke up.

  15. Huskers tied for 6 in average star rankings (highest in Big 10). Whatever that is worth.

  16. I assume PurpleDrank will be here soon, right?

  18. I had forgotten that Baker Steinkuhler was a 5 star.

      Here's hoping he comes into his own these last two years. Suh wasn't all that special until his Junior year. If Baker plays to potential and Crick is only as good as he was last year, those two could be disaster for opponents. If B Stein doesn't meet potential, Terrance Moore is ready for playing time, believe me.

      @imgonnasuhyou - Yep. He hasn't looked too special yet. He still has time to flourish.

      he was a 5 star on the oline and a 3-4 star on the dline. we had better depth on the oline so he played d.

      Dude, I used to say this all the time.

  22. I still want Braylon Heard. IMHO he looks just as good or better. Maybe we get both!

  23. I think it's safe to say that Turene and Lyons will not be coming to Nebraska. Dang weather.

      Come on, maybe they will be so amazed by the snow that they'll commit on the spot.
