Cream jerseys FTW!!!

While I am more confident in Coach Frost than I have been with any of our coaches since T.O., I have found myself tempering my expectations this year. After having overconfident expectations every season, two 4-8 seasons have me fighting trepidation. I struggle to think we will win nine games. Yet, when I look at our schedule, I don’t see a game I think we can’t win. So, while I usually would say “B1G Championship, fo sho”, I’m now thinking “maybe we can back into a division title...?”. I can’t wait to shake this feeling. Addendum: maybe all of my overly optimistic hysteria has been channeled into the Browns, as I have been thinking “we could reach the Super Bowl!”

So... he didn’t answer the question?

Not to be a curmudgeon, but did we need a new thread just to recommend a song that’s been out for almost 50 years? There’s like 133 other tunnel walk threads where it was more than likely mentioned, and met with a collective yawn.

I thought I remembered it from an Elvis racing movie, Speedway. Turns out it was Spinout that I was thinking of. It's a little different than I remembered though. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0061015/ Of course there's also the Stellar Kart album.

Maybe it’s a little early. His only season was pretty historic though. Mickey Joseph is another candidate.

I believe home field advantage is worth three points vs. a neutral field, which makes a six point swing from season-to-season in conference play.

I too would be surprised if it’s not one of the TAMU guys. Just trying to think outside the box, if Moos isn’t able to pull either of them in. I have every bit of faith that he will.

Might as well head back to Orlando and snatch up Greg Lovelady.

I don’t, but I could probably find more pretty easily. I’ll reach out to some old coworkers.

Yep. Kenny Bell’s helmet to the side of my head.

I’ve had three diagnosed ones, a couple others that were definitely concussions. It’s hard to say if the concussions had as much to do with it or the blunt trauma from the collision of my last diagnosed one (4.5 years ago); but I’ve definitely had a dip in brain function. Basic math is often difficult, I have a far more limited vocabulary, my eyes lose focus semi-regularly, perpetual headaches, and my memory is significantly worse. So, I’m hella concerned about head safety. My son says he wants to be a Husker. I tell him to be a pitcher, or if he has to be a football player, it’s kicker only.

If they can develop a helmet that defies physics, that’d be pretty amazing.

Well, us out of shape guys prefer first base.

That’ll speed up the exit from south Stadium!

If the adidas logo was moved back to the center, it wouldn’t look quite so bad. Still, four patches on one jersey is ridiculous. If they’re dead set on the 150 years patch, use it in place of the winning tradition patch. Apparently there was a 100 years patch in 1989. When the 101st year came around, someone thought “well, I guess we just have to have a patch!” Like they hadn’t seen any jerseys erstwhile and thought it was just a thing Nebraska jerseys have. A winning tradition has been there since. In my opinion, it’s stupid to have a patch that isn’t commemorating a specific event/anniversary. Instead of saying “oh, we’re good at football, y’all!”, it’d be a lot more effective to just win instead.

Hell, if he wants to look at whoever’s defending him with this tenacity, I’m all for it.

How dare Mr. O’Gara go against the Huskers!! To think, I played pickup basketball with the guy back in our Kearney days! Actually, not surprised... at all.

I hope you’re right. John Dorsey met with Ziggy twice before the draft. The Browns are shopping Duke Johnson and don’t get Kareem Hunt until game 9. I think Ziggy would be a nice backup for Nick Chubb. Fairly similar style back, so wouldn’t be a complimentary back, but as far as reserves go.

Ivan Drago!! He’ll bring some muscle down low, for sure!

Only Huskerboard can turn any thread into a food derailment.

I don’t know that anyone can say Martinez has turned out to be better, when Gebbia hasn’t even taken a live snap.
