  1. Haha a couple Iowa fans asked how they stacked up, he told them flat out Nebraska is more talented and deeper. Couple more that caught my eye: "WR much like secondary -they have talent -and much like the LB they need game reps" "Compton on the rise" He mentioned we have plenty of talent at RB, he likes Jake Cotton, T-MO did well. Seemed to like what the O-line was doing, loved the D-line depth.
  2. Hopefully Beck is following suit with Martinez. He had a terrible case of the dropsies.
  3. I don't think 10 lbs is going to make a huge difference. We faced plently of NFL caliber linemen in the Big 12-3. People are making the Big Ten out to be something it isn't. You don't think out D struggled when teams ran right at us last year? I'm not saying Crick and Stein aren't great, but just a little undersized. I guarantee were going to get a heavy dose of teams trying to force us to stop the run. At times, yes they struggled. Are you suggesting Jared and Baker being a little undersized was the whole entire reason for that? A lot went into those struggles. No, definitely not suggesting that they struggled because they were undersized last year because the D was constructed to deal with the pass happy big12 offenses, but what I am suggesting is that although they were perfectly sized to deal with the big12 offenses, I feel they may be undersized when it comes to the weekly grind of dealing with B1G offenses like Wisc, Mich st, Mich, Penn st etc. I sure here a lot of talk about how deep we are at DT. If it's not just talk, this also doesn't worry me in the slightest.
  4. It can't be Beebe as he would have to relocate from under Mack Browns desk. If I didn't know better, I'd think there was almost some sort of sexual connotation to this statement.
  5. People keep bringing up the legislature, but they're not a factor in this for the next two years unless Rick "Adios Mofo" Perry calls a special session. They just ended their last session, and they don't meet again until 2013, after the elections (IIRC). I don't think Perry wants to expend political capital on this, so until he does that makes this a non-factor. Then again, this may be why there's a rush on this--to get the deal approved before a special session can be called for. Yes they are a factor. They would be called back if one of the state's flagship school decides to leave the Big 12. Seems like wishful thinking.

  7. Man, I forgot about all about Menelik Holt... already.

  9. SEC source says the report isn't true, but confirms both sides are working on making it happen. http://aol.sportingnews.com/ncaa-football/story/2011-08-11/source-report-of-texas-am-accepting-sec-invitation-just-not-true

  11. Click me Your source simply cited what has already been directly linked.
  12. I just hope the staduim expansion helps trap more noise in. That would be shweet.
  13. Adi wanted to redshirt, Bo wasn't having it. I don't think Bo had much faith in him as a place-kicker. Edit: plus, I really doubt we had a better punter on the roster than Alex.
  14. Nebraska won't only win, it will be a massacree.
  15. is there another type of U.S. Map that I am not aware of? Yes.
  16. Beck said it's good to have Turner practicing with the QBs "just in case". So it's pretty obvious he's #4 on the QB depth chart, if not #3 ahead of RK3.
  17. The new-aged Herbie face is just creepy as all get out. He looks like a date rapist.
