Back: He did! Suh did get a puddy tat.

Well this is the same guy who predicted us winning by only 4 to Arkansas State.

Bo Pelini and Peter Stormare

thats the guy from Fargo, yeah?

Sure is.

 

We got the throwbacks we wanted, so what's the point of tweaking the standard unis? They are perfect the way they are. I know they aren't exactly flashy, (which is perfectly fine with me) but why would we want them to look even blander?

 

I'm sure this is really high on TO's priority list, right up there with bringing back the all red socks!

haha, I was just telling my wife last night that we should bring back the red socks.

after watching the last 2 VT games can someone explain to me how Miami is ranked so much higher than us?

ESPN shoved Miami down everyone's throats so much to the point that people think they're a better team, despite losing by 23 more points.

I dunno if they still do it, but I liked how San Jose State took it a step further, and instead of the names on the back of their jerseys, they just had "SPARTANS". I'm not saying the Huskers should do that, but I think that's a pretty cool idea to help promote a team. For a team like that I think it could help. I don't think the Huskers need a gimmick to buy into the concept of a team though. Leave that for Penn State, lol.

I love how the difference between #6 and #23 is a point on the road. Yet the difference between #6 and #17 is 24 points on the road. Freakin' ridiculous. Although it has no bearing on the actual season, CFN's rankings have us at #6. I'll admit that's too high, but at least we're getting love somewhere.

I was off by one freakin' point last week. Anyways, here goes:

NU: 38

MU:13

Rushing: 178

Passing: 324

Virginia Tech will probably be pushed up to around #6-8, and we'll probably still be #21-#24. So the difference between #6 and #21 is one point on the road. I know there's a lot of parity, but we should be ranked much higher the way Virginia Tech is manhandling Miami, considering we dominated that game.

NU-56

ULL-0

Rushing-214

Passing-306

He wasn't airborne so any rules stating that have no relevance to the play. If you're taking that route, then if someone with feet planted catches the ball, has clear possession, then falls on his butt and drops it, that's not a catch? The fall doesn't have to do with the catch, because he didn't have to return to the ground, he was already there when he caught it. It was definitely a touchdown. He caught the ball and had a foot in the endzone. Touchdown. If he wasn't airborne, those rules don't apply, therefore the fall doesn't matter.

Anyone blaming West on that play obviously doesn't understand how a cover 2 zone defense works. As much as it sucked, it didn't cost us the game. The horrible pass rush on the touchdown is what did. Or maybe that penalty that cost us yards AND time on the second to last play of the game. All in all, we played a horrible game in regards to our pass offense, and still almost won. If Zac Lee can get back on his horse, I'm pretty confident in our team, and honestly think we could win out.

Rattlesnake Boys (NU)-31

Go Big Red!!

Not that Lee Corso is the best source, but he was on the Jim Rome show last year and Romey asked him who were the best fans in college football. He said he had to say Virginia Tech, because one time when they were at Blacksburg for Gameday he picked against the Hokies and the crowd booed, and then his car was struck by lightning. He didn't know what a Hokie was, but apparently God was one of 'em. Then he said aside from Virginia Tech, Nebraska has the best fans in the country. So, I'd say it'll be a comparable atmosphere to Memorial Stadium, which obviously the guys are used to playing in.
