  1. Just think . . . we could have Tyler Gabbert instead of Brion Carnes. Thanks for everything, Pinkel.

      Mizzou always finds a way to Pinkel themselves

      This looks like it's going to work out very well for us in the end. Thank you, Tommie Frazier connections! We almost ended that year without a QB in the class...

    3. NUance

      NUance

      Yeah, it worked out for the best! Blaine Gabbert was the man. But lil' brother Tyler is a punk ass bitch.

  2. Big news if you have Time Warner/DirectTV/Dish/Charter and an iPhone or iPad. http://www.bigtennetwork.com/generic/video/BTN2Go

      Thank you sir for the news. I have had trouble getting anything from Charter.

      hopefully they get it on android soon.... like by the end of the month

  3. Another year. Another average/below average offensive line?

      hopefully when the next cotton gets here next year we will have an entire o-line of cottons.

      now we gotta wait a "Cotton-Pickin'" Year?

      We got some GREAT young guys comin up. Ain't gonna help us much this year though.

  4. This conference of integrity has been exposed as anything but since NU joined.

    1. Excel

      Excel

      Yep, I don't think any conference really can claim that title...maybe the ivy league

    2. gobiggergoredder

      Hard to argue against that one.

      Makes the 80s SMU teams look like choir boys.

  5. Just when I was going to say I was wrong about Pelini and this team. Sigh.

    1. NoLongerN

      NoLongerN

      Hang in there. Still a half to play!

    2. carlfense

      carlfense

      Yeah. I won't be sober enough to remember the second half so it really won't matter.

      We're dun this time.

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

      EZ-E

      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.

    2. Mavric

      Mavric

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

    3. EZ-E

      EZ-E

      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.

  7. score predictions for saturday?

    1. Saunders

      Saunders

      If TM is healthy and plays: 41-13 'skers. Otherwise, 30-17 'skers.

    2. Roark

      Roark

      2-0. Nebraska wins it with a spectacular last-second safety.

  8. Yikes. Chatelain is getting heckled by a priest on Twitter.

      i love the lunch ideas thread. just grown men telling everyone what they are eating for lunch. it's awesome.

    3. ShawnWatson

      ShawnWatson

      Its pretty sad but that is one of my favorite topics as well.

  10. Anyone have Centurylink Prism? If so, thoughts?

    1. carlfense

      carlfense

      Better or worse than belt buckles?

    2. NUpolo8

      NUpolo8

      Crap, I thought they WERE belt buckles.

    3. ShawnWatson

      ShawnWatson

      You better vote for those goddamn buckles, Carl.

  11. This is all Polo's fault.

    1. ShawnWatson

      ShawnWatson

      Let's call him dirty names.

      Pelini up and left like a fart in the wind.

  12. Owa playing well for UCLA tonight

    1. redout22
    2. carlfense

      carlfense

      Agreed. Still like Owa though. Seemed like a good kid.

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

    1. jsneb83

      jsneb83

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

    2. carlfense

      carlfense

      I like your optimism.

       

      (but I hate this weather.)

  14. Dear Clayborn: you wouldn't start for NU.

    1. JOEY

      JOEY

      lol He's a noob

    2. corncraze

      corncraze

      Yes he would! Facepalm

  15. Thank you DIrk Chatelain for asking real questions. I'd like to hear more than just fluff, please.

    1. NoDoubt

      NoDoubt

      I cannot stand that douche.

    2. carlfense

      carlfense

      Eh. I'm just happy there is still a Husker beat writer who cares more about reporting the news than trying to stay in the good graces of the coaching staff.

    1. NoDoubt

      NoDoubt

      I would love to go to a Lions game and see this man in live action again...

       

    2. Apathy

      Apathy

      I'm not a big fan of rap songs for highlight reels but that music fit really well with that video clip.

  16. Remembered again that Henery wasn't a finalist for the Groza. Further proof that individual awards are BS.

    1. NUance

      NUance

      What a glaring omission. I'm embarrassed for the jackasses that nominate for the Groza.

    2. Hoosker

      Hoosker

      if they had watched almost any game from the last 3 years, they would know he was heroic. laughable that they left him out.

  17. The French Cafe closed. Bummer.

    1. Foppa

      Foppa

      What?! Why? That place was always packed when I went there...

    2. Omaha-Husker

      Omaha-Husker

      The had gone downhill since the new owner bought the place. That also means the French Underground closed as well, thank god.

    1. Danny Bateman

      Danny Bateman

      That guy knows his football, that's for sure from watching the success he's had and hearing him commentate for games while he was on leave, but... for God's sake, what a dirtball.

    2. HuskerShark

      HuskerShark

      wow... if even half of those things are true (which I am assuming they are), it looks like Ohio State will be looking at some more NCAA sanctions in a couple years.

  18. It's not complicated. It's coaching. We are not a good football team.

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

  20. The year is '94, in my trunk is raw.

  21. 7 years in and the exact same team. SSDY.

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      It's a process. Just wait til next year. The players just aren't executing. When these new recruits get some experience, it will be different. Does that about cover it?

    2. carlfense

      carlfense

      Just wait till you see the new ~20 ranked class of recruits. And we will adjust to the new conference. Etc .
