  1. I HATE losing to Miami. Absolutely hate it. But I LOVE it when we play them. Talk about an electric atmosphere. Can't we just make them a yearly series?!?!

      That was a great game! Huskers are stepping up and playing some good ball.

      Need younger guys to step up. When they start taking shots, and making them, we'll be dangerous.

      Whether you care to believe it or not, the road to the playoff is much easier in the B1G than it is in the SEC.

      Seems to me the sec myth was demolished this season. They aren't any better than Any other conference.

      Weather you care to believe it or not, the SEC isn't that good

  3. Guess I'll start it up again - fire Eichorst!

  4. Really believe Imani should start tomorrow. If we can get him going for 4-5 ypc, I think we have a good shot at winning tomorrow.

      Newby runs too soft for a game against a physical team.

      Me, three! If the game plan is MSU 2.0, the Huskers will give themselves a good chance to win.

  5. My b**** session for today - I really don't hate Iowa. What I do hate is the idea of making them our main "rival". No matter how hard it's forced, I will not accept it.

      Iowa is different than most of our other B1G foes. They're closer to us. We work with them, are related to them, and interact with them more than, say, Penn St, tOSU or the Michigan schools. So there's more talking smack with those pesky Iowegans. Just sayin..

      YOU might be related to them.....I am not and I detest the implication. lol.

      I'm actually not. And along that same line of thought, I don't think humans evolved from cockroaches.

  6. Oregon has sure turned things around this year.

      Utah borrowed their mojo, then promptly gave it right back.

      Oregon had a few injuries that cost them in the middle of the season. That and Adams Jr. got better each week.

  7. This Iowa team reminds me of '13 Notre Dame. Benefited from a really weak schedule and then got blown out when they played a top tier program. We obviously aren't a top tier team this year, but I don't think we should be intimidated by them at all. Iowa St, Pitt, Minnesota and Indiana all hung close with them, and we should be able to too. We have the mental edge in this series, nothing to lose, and have arguably the most athletic roster they've seen all year. Let's do this.

    1. swmohusker

      This Iowa team reminds me of last years Iowa team, but just a smidge better. Beathard's development has been the difference in close wins and close losses.

    2. Touchdown Tommie

      Touchdown Tommie

      They are better than last year! It is amazing how confidence in the system and buy in can play a huge role. This Iowa team is proof of that! Watch the videos of a book they read and how their leadership from within the team has made a difference.

      I am really hoping for a good game. Their confidence is high and I believe the Huskers' confidence is at the highest point of the year. Stopping the running game and containing their QB is gonna be key...hopefully the defense will n...

  8. Anyone ever figure out who our silent commit is?

      Haven't heard.

  9. Alright, guys - let's beat Iowa.

    1. Huskerzoo

      Huskerzoo

      Yup. Glad we have some time to get some guys healthy.

    2. NUance

      I'm rooting for them to beat the Gophers. So they'll be undefeated when we beat them.

  10. Really wish we could play Michigan State every year. There is so much potential for a really fun rivalry between us.

      Frankly, if the West doesn't step it up, I could see a reshuffle and MSU being put in the West in exchange for an Illinois or Purdue.

    3. Redux

      Redux

      It would be fine if we could move Purdue to the East and add OU and KU.

    4. VectorVictor

      VectorVictor

      Probably would need to happen that way to keep competitive balance if OU/KU join.

       

      And since it appears that the Big XII isn't going to add anyone that Oklahoma likes...

  11. That pick in the red zone cost us this game. Don't understand why we didn't run Cross in that goal line situation.

    1. ZRod

      ZRod

      Because Tommy is Eli.

  12. Whyyyy sooo SERIOUS?!

    1. NUance

      Need you ask??

  13. Right now the playoff committee has Alabama ahead of the following undefeated teams: TCU, Michigan State and Baylor...

      LSU won't be in the Four if they don't win the conference championship unless all the other teams lose a lot.

      It's a trap game for them.

      a wounded bear? and in the comments 1 guy talking about they have to run the ball to beat us. guess he hasn't seen our pass defense.

    4. Redux

      Total trap game. They should come in and handily put the nail in the coffin of this season. I could easily see them tripping up like they did in 2011.

  14. CBS Sports posted a video on Facebook where they asked Big Ten players what the perfect costume would be for for their Head Coach. Gerry said Riley should dress up as Barney. Not Barney Fyfe - Barney the dinosaur...

    1. Redux

      Redux

      Either would work

    2. GSG

      GSG

      HE MIGHT HAVE SAID BARNEY FYFE IF HE KNEW WHO BARNEY FYFE IS

    3. NUance

      NUance

      Same coaching style as Barney:

  15. Why should we have any faith in Riley at all? Has there ever been a solid HC that inherited a 9 win team, had a losing season their first year, and then won a conference championship later on with that same team? Can anyone find one example remotely close to this?

      BakerMark said it well.

  16. Alright Eich, if we were "ready to win now", why did you pick a coach that intended to drastically change our offensive and defensive schemes?!?! Weren't there other coaches who could have built from what we already had? Oh... You only bothered to interview one candidate... I see...

      I like this take... I'm a fan.

      This is a great point. I agree.

  17. No bowl game for us.

  18. In his presser, Riley said Terrell Newby is hurt, be he doesn't know the full extent of his injury.

  19. Not a fan of Ohio State's alternates. They look like Oregon State's.

      Yeah I thought those unis were trash too

  20. If Florida wins today against LSU, they have a very good chance of going undefeated in the regular season. The rest of their schedule is very winnable.

    1. Redux

      Truly surprised by them being good.

    2. macroboy

      That is the guy I was hoping we would hire.

  21. Anyone else notice when they had the camera on Turner, but they were talking about Kalu? They had no idea it was the wrong player. It's not hard to distinguish the two either. Kalu is wearing sleeves today and Turner isn't. ESPN sucks.

  22. Just wanted to remind everyone Justin Fuente from Memphis could have been our Head Coach. We also could've picked Utah's Kyle Whittingham.

      Whittingham wasn't going anywhere.
