  1. Hoosiers lost to Wake Forest. The Deacons beat Tulane, 7-3. In light of that, Gerry DiNardo offers that Indiana has the edge on Nebraska both ofensively and defensively. Makes perect sense right? What a JOKE!

      Indiana is legit, and we should be on alert.

  2. Maybe it's just the shell shock talking, but it's reall hard for me to go all N for a Husker win on Saturday. I am thinkng we get beat and possibly even in a lopsided game. I am probably just guarding against disappoointment, but the doubts are definitely there. Anybody feeling the same?

      If we beat Miami AND Michigan St, the letdown loss will be to Northwestern and/or Rutgers.

      The equalizer and the thing I worry about most is.... turnovers. We haven't forced them against some bad competition and TA has shown a tendency to throw first and look for defenders second.

      Gut feeling is we win by less than 2 scores but my gut feelings for this team aren't worth sh#t. Would not be surprised if we blow them out (well....that might be a little surprising) or if we get blown out. Anything is possible, I guess that's why I'll watch the game.

  3. When will TO weigh in on all of this? If he says nothing, doesn't that tell us he doesn't support it? But if he talks, people will just read into it what they want. Thoughts?

      This is the same man who used to tell us that Western Central College of Wahoo was a really good team that would give us a challenge if we didn't take them seriously.

       

      Then we'd curb-stomp them by 40 points and he'd praise how well they played at the post-game presser.

  4. Went to ESPN front page and they had an alarming number of stories based on "Source or Sources." Isn't that a nice way of saying, we can't confirm, but we are going with it anyways. Nice ESPN

  6. I am a Dallas fan. And, as such, there have been times that I almost wished players, like Jason Whitten, for instance, could go somewhere else in a trade or free agent situation just so that he could get that success he deserves. I find myself feeling the same way about TA here at Nebraska. I think Armstrong would be deady in a system like Oregon. With that talent around him and his speed/ball faking ability. Don't think he'll leave. Don't want him to leave. But man would he be go...

      I could see a DB move on, especially if we fill out the 2017 DB class with studs. I could maybe see an OL move on. Other than that, I don't think anyone...but it always seems to surprise ya.

  9. Wouldn't it be rich to see FSU lose and have Ohio State take on Mizzou. Of course, I would want Ohio State to win, just because it would mean something for the BIG. I know it won't happen, but I would enjoy watching that one any way.

      Good point WaHusker. It would be pretty crazy for Alabama to be rated ahead of the conference champion from their own league that beat the team that beat Alabama in order to achieve that status. Still, I could totally see it.

  10. What is the deal with Adam Taylor? I know that he got hurt in the lead up to the season, but I thought he would be available by now. Are they going to hold out for a medical red shirt even though he has already had his regular red shirt?

      He broke his ankle and initially it was said he could be back in 6 weeks. About a month ago there was a statement that said he would be out for the year.

  11. Considering the losses on the defensive line.... what happens if NU is worse this year than they were last year... 4-8 or something like that? Asking for a friend. LOL

      Well what I said was serious. It's great that Bo doesn't do that, but how many coaches actually do this? Maybe once per year? Like I said, happy Bo doesn't do it, but it's not really something that should be an accomplishment because then everyone in the country would get that awared

      Not going 3-9. Nebraska will get at least 8 wins next year, just on talent alone. And now that we have competent coaches, that should add 1-2 more wins. I'm calling it, 9 or 10 wins next year.

  15. The draft could not get any worse. As a Husker and Cowboy fan, it pains me to see all those Huskers heading to NFC East rivals of the Cowboys

  16. Bill O'Brien, right or wrong, has basically told PSU fans to stick it because of the way he's been treated. There was no need to go hunting for a secret tape. He made a statement on the subject. And he is behing praised for his position. Thoughts?

      He told a "portion" of PSU fans. Much like Bo told a "portion" of Husker fans. More power to them both.

      A key difference being that O'Brien is leaving PSU and Bo is saying "no, no I didn't really mean it!"

      I have the same feelings I've concluded it is because 1 game wasn't enough to give a good idea of what to expect. Since 2 coaches have mentioned USA's speed I think we should be concerned.

      I heard they took Tennessee to the wire a couple years ago. Then again, they are in rebuild mode, so you might saying that's not relevant.

  18. Trolls used to tell me... Nebraska will never be "back" and I laughed at them. But the last time I felt we had the ability to compete for high stakes and win... 2001. That's 14 years on now. And I look at where we are at... that troll is starting to look smart.
