  1. I love the balloon tradition. I can't say the same for the shots of the students holding their shoes in the air though.
  2. I think Bo was close to getting flagged on that one, yeah. I'm glad he didn't Depending on the official he definitely could have easily been flagged. Bad calls are going to happen. Say your peace and then walk the hell away.
  3. Denver at Seattle today. Should be a good one. Go Bronc's.

      It was a good one

  4. Indiana beat Misery lol.

  5. I'm still not sure just how good or bad Miami is but that was a fun game to watch. The atmosphere was off the charts and it was noticeable even on television. It was fun beating the Canes at home. The intensity was definitely there especially after the 2nd scuffle just after the Kalu int. Loved it.
  6. Sad news. RIP Boronas. Rob Bironas, Former Titans Kicker, Passes Away at Age 36
  7. That is a great story. Even though I was only watching on tv I thought he looked fairly fast.
  8. 1) I honestly don't know how from tv shots you can see his head or eyes move through his progressions. Unless you've got a different view than I do, or maybe your tv has better definition than mine, I'm not sure you can make that distinction. 2) Oh,and if you don't know the differences from the Osbone and Solich offenses and Becks offense in regards to passing, then I highly over estimated your knowledge of football. 1) Tommy drops back to pass. You see him looking downfield. Then he turns his head and body and throws the ball to his secondary receiver. Sometimes his third. It's actually hard NOT to notice. The announcers notice, too, and sometimes mention it. If you, on the other hand, CAN'T make that distinction, how can you assert that Tommy doesn't move through his progressions? 2) Osborne and Solich passed less than Beck. Which was good, because Frazier, Frost, Crouch weren't very good passers. But those teams were always measured by their passing efficiency as it served a run-first offense. In which case 50% could be considered acceptable, but only because we were winning a lot of games for a lot of other reasons. And so Frazier, Frost and Crouch didn't take as much shite as you're inclined to give Armstrong here. In Beck's offense, which passes more than Osborne's, but still runs more than it passes, it's still a matter of efficiency, and 55% with 9.0 yards per attempt makes Nebraska a legitimate dual threat offense. It's cause for optimism, not hand-wringing. If you don't think Tom Osborne and Frank Solich would have started Tommy Armstrong over 75% of their quarterbacks, you may want to revisit your Husker history. 1. I guess you're able to see something that I'm not, or you're watching for it and I'm not. In my defense I had to watch the first quarter and a half of FAU game on a tv 2 houses away, and the rest of it through a crowded party. The second game was at a bar where the best tv was about 20 feet away, and last game was (what little I caught) was on a grainy stream in the middle of a wedding reception. Hopefully I'll be able to actually catch this week's game where I can see it better. 2). The 52% is a big reason why we've had so much feast or famine this year, so many 3 and outs.of you don't see that as s problem, then I don't know what to say. As for who Tommy would start over.... Frazier...nope Berriinger....nope Steve Taylor...nope Crouch....nope Gill....nope Gdowski....nope McCant....doubtful Frost.....doubtful Newcombe....doubtful Lord....doubtful Sundberg....toss up Clayton. ....toss up Grant.....toss up Joseph...toss up Christo.....probably It looks like again, we're not going to agree, so I'll leave it with this: I'm trying to figure out where over the last 3 years in what bizzaro world a 52% passer who has a habit of hitting the defenders right in their hands is good or very good, yet a 63% passer sucked. I watched every quarterback of the Osborne/Solich era play. I can guarantee you that Tommy Armstrong would not have sat on the bench while 75% of them started. Tom Osborne would have drooled over Tommy's skill set. Probably still does. There is no way Osborne would have overlooked the turnovers the way Pelini has with his last 2 quarterbacks. Not a chance.
  9. Foltz has been lights out this season.
  10. I'd like to but even with the zero turnovers against Fresno there were definitely a few that could have easily been picks. He has a lot to prove yet for me at least before I feel comfortable. I still want to see what Fyfe and Stanton too can do out there. Once the jitters are gone against a decent opponent. I think they'd move the chains.

  12. Armstrong has looked better in these 2 games anyway but it's hard to truly judge since the level of talent we've faced hasn't necessarily been the greatest. I still hold my breath every time he throws the ball. I hate that. I counted 3 or 4 passes last night alone that could and should have easily been picks. The problem is back up QB's never really get a chance to develop any sort of rhythm in Bo's system because he's always been so locked down on his starter. Whatever. There' a lot of football left to play.
