  1. Someone asked him about changing the mascot. W. T. F?
  2. That’s a good possibility. I was the same way in high school with track. Was running my PR for the 800, blew out my hammy early in the year. After fighting to get back, tweaked it a couple weeks before Districts and I was just done. I probably could’ve made it back, but I didn’t have the desire anymore.
  3. I’ve always thought of myself as a bit of a good luck charm. NU won the first 22 games I went to (26 if you count spring games!). Those games included the Alex Henery game-winner against Colorado, the Kansas State blowout in 2017 that was an incredible anomaly for the season, the Denard Robinson injury/Russell Bellomy charity game, Montee Ball “fumbles” for the first time in forever (our only win vs. Wisconsin in the B1G), the Westerkatch vs. Northwestern (while sporting a ‘stache), and Nebraska’s only undefeated in Lincoln season since Lincoln was in office. Also, Corey Cooper inexplicably walked up to me from behind and gave me a shoulder rub before a game, then nabbed his first career interception later that day. Then I went to four games in 2013 with a girl whose four year tenure at UNL coincided with the Calliban era. Turns out her jujoo overpowered my good luck, because we lost all four. After that brief stint, NU started winning again when I wasn’t with her. Instances including the OT win vs. Iowa in Pelini’s last game, the Miami 2014 win (best game day environment I’ve ever experienced), and Kenny Bell running into me on the sideline, then scoring a 69-yard touchdown on his next play. I’ve only been to one game since 2014, and that was our loss to Iowa in 2015. I sat in the press box for that one, which obviously means my good luck is only airborne and cannot travel through glass. My overall attendance record: 29-5 I think the University should just give tickets to @WyoHusker56 and me for the foreseeable future. EDIT: The Huskerboard members game list tells me my memory sucks. No surprise there.
  4. Actually, Tom Osborne is. He set all these expectations with his 60-3 run. Then he goes and steps aside just because Frankie wanted his. We know how that story goes.
  5. If a scholarship athlete from another sport comes over and participates in even one play, that scholarship gets counted toward the team limit. That, or Frost is sexist.
  6. I’m pretty sure Tim Brando said he thought Frost is the modern TO, not that Frost thinks he is.
  7. That only applies before the ball is in the air... in the NFL. The five yard rule doesn’t exist in college football. By either set of rules, it was pass interference.
  8. 93 yards. I saw it on the box of a Nerf football.
  9. Still goes to the profile on mobile.
  10. Dude, that is amazing. Significantly Cooler than a DJ.
  11. I say we raise Henry Fonda, Marlon Brando, or Montgomery Clift from their graves.
  12. 16/36, 188 yards, 3 touchdowns The all-important stat: TCU 38, SMU 41
  13. Kugler is the first announcer I’ve heard that correctly states it as ‘x’ points straight, not unanswered. Granted, it was after I tweeted to him about him saying unanswered; but he corrected Millen later in the same game. I’ve always liked him, but he won my heart that day.
  14. Put on your church shoes, and start churning butter! We’re gonna beat that spread by a good 20 points.
  15. I thought I was a curmudgeon; but if that’s what you call a “hissy”, that’s a you problem. Also, apparently I can’t just assume inference anymore.
  16. Beg? I have zero interest in how many wins, losses, or hotdogs shot into the upper deck. I could say “Nebraska is 26-0 when playing a team with birds as their mascot” or whatever. Just pointing out winning record isn’t quite as arbitrary. Don’t let your perceptions project onto others’ posts.
  17. I hope all of these people show up to eat their crow when we knock off Ohio State.
  18. I don’t disagree that we’ve been worse since then, because we certainly have. I’m not even arguing against a “curse”. But arbitrary stats aren’t the best way to back it up. Anyone can pick out arbitrary stats to backup their hypothesis. I think a winning record would be better. After all, you said 7-6 teams didn’t change it that much. carry on.
  19. I learned Colorado is going to be the surprise playoff team.
  20. I think it’s an incredibly sh***y thing for him to do, but to say that’s not severe punishment when he could be acquitted is flat out bananas.
