  1. Doubt you'll have time, but if you get a car you guys could check out the Strategic Air and Space Museum. It's in Ashland, which is about 30 minutes from downtown on I-80. He's probably too old for the kids stuff but there's a lot of cool planes.
  2. I think they did all the stadium imagery last year. If that's the case I don't think the east stadium expansion will be included, although I would love to be surprised. Well, I see that Memorial Stadium's capacity is set to 92k. Still not sure if the actual east-side expansion is on the game, but the capacity is there. There's a picture in the "what's new area" of Nebraska running the option. It shows a single deck on east stadium, so I'm going to guess it's probably not in there. I remember when they finished north stadium it was another year before they had it in the game, and I think they didn't have screens on the corners for another year after that.
  3. ESPN is unwatchable again, that didn't take long. Thanks Leb'ama!

      Again? They haven't been watchable in years.

      Highly Questionable is a great show.... (I don't get the Bomani Jones addition though).

      You could at least watch SC most days, but now it's all is Lebron the greatest all the time.

  4. ESPN won't because they are in League with ye Old Whornes. Tarnishing them means losing viewers of the LongWhorne Network. Right. Because controversy always makes people change the channel. That's why no one watches First Take...
  5. I feel like the NCAA Football titles on PS3 have all been sub-par as it is. There are a lot of compromises in the graphics and speed of loading screens etc. which many games that are far more demanding handle better. There is sooo much that can still be refined on PS3 that it leads me to believe they will never sniff the limits of PS4.
  6. Year eight? I hope you were working on your second (or third) degree by then. / By year 10 I was drinking Irish whiskey. And wine. But not at the same time. lol
  7. (wiki source) Thus I assumed irrigation system in T.O. field was already installed. If they do apply water before a game it's probably with a Gator and a spray system , there are no sprinklers on the turf.
  8. Of course after I post this I play 2 more games and they shuffle around them every time. When it works it's pretty cool, but they still seem to get tripped up a lot in the linemen's feet. Apparently when you stumble an icon pops up on the player circle telling you which way to flick the juke stick, but it happens to quick for me to notice it.
  9. It's basically maxed out for now. If they wanted to add more they would have to tear into south or north stadiums.
  10. Good weekend for Husker Motorsports! Complete every event but the endurance rac (1 lap short, only 27 or 50 some cars finished) and got 10th in acceleration.

  11. They definitely run into linemen, and don't brush off. Sometimes they do, but more often then not I run into a lineman and it's like hitting a wall, there's no skirting him and no push. The physics engine isn't that noticeable in my opinion. Honestly the only time I notice it is when the ball carrier trips over a leg or body, and frankly it's annoying. I had a back have a phantom trip on a lineman's leg even though he was two feet away and it cost me a TD. The zone read works really well in my opinion, you actually have to make the read otherwise you're odds of making the defender miss are slim to none. And you usually gain 5 yards a pop unless the D is blitzing or has some scheme on. I don't know if they had it last year but they have a triple option shovel pass now that seems like it could be really deadly. I was just playing with it in the drills and it's pretty fun.
  12. Played another game today and the option definitely works. Read, speed, triple all work pretty smooth once you get the hang of the timing. And I like the fact that they've brought back "Drills". Still not crazy about the game, but I may buy it this year since I skipped out last year and it's definitely an improvement over '12.
  13. If your in Lincoln and have some time to kill Friday/Saturday afternoon swing by Air Park and check out Formula SAE. Student deisgned and built formula style cars from all over the country and world. Husker Motorsports is in it's second year. While we've had some bad luck, they made some real improvement from last year.

      Check out my alumni SDSM&T. They usually do a pretty respectable job in these competitions

  14. Thank Jesus. That turf gets ridiculously hot. I always felt that while turf got real hot, grass was a lot more humid on a hot day.
  15. The dress doesn't make you look fat, your big ass does.
  16. There's some bad joojoo in that turf, we can't let it get near the new stuff.
  17. Maybe his fat boys should get in better shape, or drop some weight, or change up your scheme/philosophy. I know Defense is physically more demanding but if the O subs then the D can sub so...
  18. I'm with Nuance, I lean left but I honestly don't know who I'd vote for on either side at this point. If Christie ran I would probably vote for him, but as much as he seems like a moderate I wonder if it's just to appease his constituents in Jersey. He said some things at the GOP national convention that turned me off, but lately he's been about as real as a politician can get.
  19. You're right, I downloaded it and played 2 quick games on Heisman and AA. Feels like the same game from the past 6 years with new issues. Screen animations still suck, threw a bubble and the guy caught it and stepped out of bounds for a loss. Same as he's done the last however many years, it just had a new animation... You stick to linemen and can't push them to make holes, there's some really weird horse collar lunging tackles that seem physically impossible, no huddle is still too glitchy, and the pregame animations (with Ohio State) had Braxton as the center and the RB as the QB. But they do have a trap play now!
  20. But it sucks to play online then because the ratings are different and you don't have the acceleration, agility or whatever, that you anticipated. I think the Demo's are set to Varsity or All American difficulty, you can't adjust the setting anywhere and they are typically pretty easy to play.
  21. Man I forgot how good Taylor's wheels were in the MSU game. The D had some flashes of old school as well, gang tackling and getting pressure, but they were only flashes... I was trying to stay even keel this off season but all the highlights have got me excited again, and it's only June...
  22. If Ohio State's offense is a 97 then ours is at least a 95. I didn't purchase last years edition but in previous years our ratings turned out to be more accurate than not. Taylor has always been way too slow though, and has never had the acceleration he actually has in the real world. Ameer better be something like Dempsey was at Florida or that guy at Colorado. Small quick and shifty, I always had trouble with those guys breaking off big runs.
  23. Damn I wish I had money to buy a graphics card and this and bf3 and 4!
