      Remember when Callahan was supposed to be able to "sell" coaching in the NFL to get great players?

      Remember when Bo was supposed to be able to "sell" Suh being the #2 pick in the draft to get more elite DT's to commit?

      Remember when Riley was supposed to be able to "sell" whatever the hell he was supposed to sell?

      Pepperidge Farm remembers...

      @StPaulHusker I COULD GO FOR A MILANO COOKIE RIGHT NOW!

  3. I'm not easily offended, but I saw Limp Bizkit's new music video today. Yes, Limp Bizkit is apparently still a thing, and yes their music is still repugnant. I'm against censorship as a principle, but society needs to draw the line somewhere. Think of the children.

      It's the song itself that's objectionable. Not so much the video.

      To be honest, I thought Fred Durst was dead.

  4. I don't understand the overzealousness to question Riley's methods, especially from those who were upset about people questioning Bo after 6-7 years.

      I think Riley will be a decent coach...Just doubt a pro style qb can win championships in the windy plains of Nebraska with any consistancy

      @Redux Not fighting. Just disagreeing with your initial oversimplification. Then, you mentioned that Nebraska fades at the end of the year. From 0-6 to 4-1. I am pointing out Nebraska seems to be the team getting stronger over the season this year.

       

      My responses seem obvious, so I am surprised you are giving any push back.

      @Thanks_Tom RR I get what you're saying but I did not interpret what @Redux initially said as needing debunked. It seemed obvious that he was referring to the typical past and not to this season specifically. I don't think you guys are disagreeing, just maybe on a little different page.

  6. Anyone think Northwestern is going to win the conference based on the idea that it's difficult to beat a team twice?

    2. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      The tougher to beat a team the 2nd time thing is probably harder to debunk with Nebraska fans because we have shown a propensity of playing much worse in second game same season matchups. OU 78?, Washington Holiday bowl and Wiscy CCG games all immediately come to mind. I can’t think of any that have gone our way.

       

      Its also been my experience with youth hockey games. I can’t count the times a team would beat another in the seeding rounds only to lose to the same team in bracket play. It’s all anecdotal but.....

    3. Moiraine

      Moiraine

      Just a thought...

      Even if the winner of the first game is 23-14 (62%) it can still be true that it's tougher to beat a team in the 2nd game. If it wasn't the record in the 2nd game should be more lopsided. They've already beaten that team once and they only beat them twice 62% of the time.

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      So, 1st game losing teams improve from 0-37 to 14-23 in ccg rematches and from 0-22 to 15-7 in bowl game rematches. Pretty definitive that it is much tougher to beat a team the 2nd time.

  7. Rep points should be disabled in the P&R circle jerk.  Change my mind.

      1. Rep points don't matter. 

      2. The biggest reason why P&R might seem like an echo chamber is most of the people with differing viewpoints can't disagree with others without being a troll. 

      3. Rep points don't matter.

      I think that's a decent deal. If you want an idea of the material costs, I've used this lumber yard that specializes in decks: https://thedecksuperstoreportal.epicoranywhere.com/products.aspx?direction=desc&searchText=&pg=0&sort=Relevance

      Just keep in mind that the labor does require some skill and knowledge. I've built a couple decks and it's a lot of work.

      @GSGthe facts greatly undermine your "accurate as a drunk dad in the backyard" analysis. You can double down on it or move the goalposts to something besides accuracy, but it doesn't change the numbers.

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Boys, boys.....can we agree that a few credible receiving threats and wider use of the playbook would make either QB look really good?  I just don't see where it matters much which one plays QB. Our issues are elsewhere.

      I'm also in the camp that wanted to roll with Luke and see what he could do. 

       

      But why crap on AM? He clearly gave things his all and went through a lot of crap to try to be the team's leader. Just because it didn't work out for whatever reason doesn't mean he doesn't mean he should be ridiculed. 

       

      Props to him for his efforts and hopefully whatever comes next is great for him.

      Cholula or Tapatio >> Tabasco for eggs. Tabasco is best all purpose hot sauce though.

      Liquor store six blocks from my house had Jim Beam 1.75 white label on sale for $19.99 a couple weeks back.  Best price I've ever seen on that stuff.  I picked up four.

      Ragnarok-Hilarious. Loved the opening scene! (I like watching these movies a second time as I miss some of the comments when I watch them initially.)

      Deadpool 2-Never saw the first one could care less for the second one.

      Black Panther-Fairly entertaining but predictable.  

    4. Enhance

      @Xmas32 I think a lot of people were willing to obscure or overlook some of Black Panther's faults as a story and movie because of some of its themes. As poignant as some of them were, it was still in sort of the B- to B range for me.

       

      @The Dude totally on board about that. Michael B. Jordan's character is the single best part of Black Panther
