Helu's career has really been a lot like Lucky's - both had solid, not spectacular careers thru their junior year - and I think both will be judged similarly based on their final year. If Helu goes out and has a dud year I think he'll be forgotten in a couple of years just like Lucky. I just hope he can stay healthy cause I like Roy and I hope he has a good year.

If this is true who replaces him? Qvale, B. Thompson, A Rod? Slide DJ Jones over to guard? Potentially having 2 RS freshmen on your left side sounds very bad to me.

I'm glad Bo did this the stuff leaking out of practice is getting out of hand

d-jon is one of my favorite players i only wish we had him for another year or two he will be a beast being on the field every down this year

good deal

I like how they say there is nothing in NE but NE football. Guess I didn't realize the Iowa Cubs were such a big attraction.

I think Bo ought to suspend him for the first game and maybe the Idaho game. What he did is something most guys have done but most guys arent star football players at Nebraska and underage at that. This is incredibly stupid and he's lucky he wasn't driving or trying to pick a fight with somebody. Gotta be smarter than that dude.

I believe that, for all intents and purposes, unofficial "offers" have been extended to several schools, Nebraska included. The expansion talk has been going on for awhile now and if I were running the Big 10 meetings this week I would want to have somewhat of a feel for things before opening up discussion with the coaches and others. My guess is something will done by midsummer because I don't think anyone wants this to drag on into the season. Beebe is just ticked off because his conference is about to fall apart on his watch. I don't think he would be taking such a hard stance if this weren't a very serious issue. I get the sense that there are quite a few people at Nebraska that want to stick it to Texas.

I live very very close to Champaign so I had to get in on this. I would pretty much agree with what's been said about the IL fans. If they beat you, you'll prolly never hear the end of it even though they've been terrible since the beginning of time. But for the most part there really is no football following. The Husker fans would have a good chance of outnumbering the Illini fans in Champaign and the kids really only care about getting drunk before the game.

I can't really speak for WI fans because I've never been to a game but I have a good friend that lives up there and those folks do drink a lot. I can't really blame em though if I had to deal with that weather I would drink a lot too.

I didn't think the refs were any worse than normal. We have gotten screwed our fair share this year so I don't feel bad for K State. I thought I saw a lot of holds on them that weren't getting called. The hit OOB on Lee was a cheap shot and will get called 100 times out of 100. The horse collar rule is completely BS so I don't care if they call it or not. If Brandon Banks doesn't like being tossed around like a rag doll he should lift some weights to the point where he is bigger than a 15-year-old girl.

looks like espn360.com again

Has anyone seen a coverage map posted for Saturday's game? I'm stuck in little 11 land and have to pay attention to these things.
