  1. Tis the season!  Nebraska Soccer started their season tonight @ Kansas.  Speaking of which, for you hardcore Hockey fans,  just an FYI.  'The Great One' Wayne Gretzky's niece, Mila Gretzky (her dad Brent Gretzky briefly played in the NHL) is a Freshman on the Nebraska Soccer team.

  2. Free admission tomorrow @ Bowlin Stadium for #16 NU vs #9 Michigan. NU has a nation leading 22 home game winning streak. Lots of pre-game tailgating activities planned. Jack Hoffman throwing the honorary first pitch + members from numerous Husker sports (football, softball, bowling, soccer, basketball, rifle) will be signing autographs. See link for more info. http://goo.gl/twZwx

  3. North Dakota State frosh OL and former Tri Country product Sam Hahn is leaving NDSU and transferring to Nebraska. #huskers

  4. I honestly thought Newby was UCLA bound. Especially with all the offensive line recruiting they have done. Our coaches worked their ass of for this kid. I honestly think Coach Brown was the selling point. Being a RB in college, he is the guy to learn from. GBR!!!

      Coach Brown played DB in college. Two-time First Team Ivy League DB for Brown University.

      Bohl had some legendary shoes to fill at that time. It was unfortunate it didn't work out for him here, but I'm glad he's found success elsewhere.

  7. Look at Luke Kuechly 2011 stats to Te'o 2012 stats and tell me which one should have been nominated for Heisman. Te'o only got national fame because of the death of his grandma and g/f....sorry but true.

      The Heisman is more than stats-driven though. Otherwise Mark Ingram shouldn't have won, since Toby Gerhart had better stats. If there's a "Hollywood story" behind a player, that helps too. It is what it is.

  8. Did anybody else catch Joey Harrington before our game say that Russell Wilson was the best QB in the nation last year? Really? So he's better than RG3 and Luck? Okay then, you're ruhtarded.

    1. Nexus

      Well he's not completely wrong, statistically speaking. Wilson was #1 in pass efficiency with 191.78 rating. Griffin was #2 with Luck coming in 5th.

  9. As much as the Big 10 needed Wiscy to win..... I had to feel good for the Penn State players who DID NOTHING WRONG and stuck with the program because of their devotion to a school. Congrats to those guys !

      @akita, I've already stated my case to ZRod, but another thing I'd like to add to the argument is that if we've learned anything about playing in the B1G in our 2 short years, it's that no game is a gimme. The Indianas and Purdues of the world have beaten Ohio State in the last 5 years. A mediocre Northwestern came into Lincoln with a win a year ago, and almost got another one this year. Those teams are full of 2-3 star talent and walk-ons.

      @ZRod, It'll be a rough go in the beginning, but I wouldn't underestimate them. Year one is enough evidence to convince me that O'Brien can coach these guys up enough to make them competitive. He'll have to get the walk-on program humming, and settle for 2-3 star players that want to play for pride instead of conference championships and bowl games. So far he's managed to keep a 5* QB in the fold this late in the recruiting game. We'll see come February.

      O'Brien is going to do some good things there, I think. PSU will be a worthy foe for many years to come.

      @zoogies, Until you pointed that out, I've never made that distinction before. Just took it for granted that chin-up/pull-up was the same thing. Thanks for clarifying it though. Makes sense.

      To be fair, both Dennard & Amukamara had stronger Jr. year performances from a pure numbers standpoint. Furthermore, Amukamara's Jr. year > Dennard's Jr. year, statistically speaking.

      I'm guessing Belichik would love to use him as a halfback. He'd thrive in that role in New England's offense, IMO.
