  1. Argue with what? There's like three paragraphs there. I like the Skers' to finish 8th. With Indiana, Minnesota, Iowa, and Penn State rounding out the bottom four.
  2. http://eye-on-college-basketball.blogs.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/entry/26283066/32950703 By Jeff Goodman Doc Sadler has no qualms saying this is his most talented team since he took over at Nebraska. Now he just needs for this group to get healthy. For the last few days, he's had difficulty fielding a team in practice. Toney McCray has been out after a pair of foot surgeries this summer. Caleb Walker, Corey Hilliard and Brandon Ubel have all been out for the past few days with ankle injuries and Dylan Talley has missed the last three practices with a thigh injury. Then toss in 6-foot-11 senior Andre Almeida, whose knee is in bad shape and can't practice at all, and 6-foot-11 junior Christopher Niemann, whose knee injuries have forced Sadler to limit him to one end of the floor in practice. "He doesn't change ends of the floor at all," Sadler said of Niemann. "When we play up and down, we keep him on the defensive end." Sadler said he's hopeful that those two big guys can get healthy enough to give him a combined 12-15 minutes per game this season. Sadler will enter the Big Ten with a team that was a couple of plays away from getting to the NCAA tournament a year ago. Sure, he's without leading scorer Lance Jeter - but there's more overall talent on this team than a year ago. "This is definitely the best team we've had," Sadler said. Look for LSU transfer Bo Spencer to battle senior Brandon Richardson (the two can also play together) at the point. McCray and Caleb Walker who started nearly 50 games a year ago - will likely start on the wings and Sadler will have juniors Jorge Brian Diaz (10.5 ppg) and Ubel up front. Sadler also raves about the potential of 6-foot-7 freshman David Rivers. "He's going to be special," Sadler said. "He can shoot it, he has a feel for the game and plays his butt off. He's got a chance to be one of the best I've had." While Sadler is optimistic about his talent, he also realizes stepping into the Big Ten won't be an easy acclimation. Especially with an unforgiving league slate that includes two games against each of Ohio State and Wisconsin among the first eight. "You know in the Big 12 how to play people," Sadler said. "You know their strengths and weaknesses. I don't have any idea right now in the Big Ten." Should be an interesting and exciting season GBR

      Nebraska furniture mart has some nice lamps for good prices. Maybe, if you're lucky, you'd get to take one home with you!

      Ha. Hysterical.

  5. People graduate don't they? A "year ago" is irrelevant.
  6. No way KSU has a shot at the Big 12 title game. Oklahoma and Okie Lite are looking good and save for a few second half collapses Texas a&m isn't to shabby either. I predict they'll go 1-3 over the next four games.
  7. Actually Wisconsin has us underranked at #18. Illinois apparently does not get the BTN or any of our games cuz they have us ranked #12. Or they are drinking the Kool-aid
  8. Good thing its not NE otherwise someone might mistake us for the New England Patriots
  9. I never thought teams changed uniforms to win?
  10. I heard Green and Yellow to better represent the Cornhusk
  11. It wouldn't work with me if I was a player. Maybe I'm in the minority, but it would just piss me off and make me want to punch him in the balls. It would completely take my focus off of what I'm supposed to do. Maybe that's the case with a lot of these players?? Did you ever play football? It's simple. Quit F-ING up and your coach will quit yelling at you... I'm sure you were an awesome football player. See my response above. Yes, I played football. You must not have played much because teaching is done AFTER the game not during. You mess up and you get yelled at and possibly benched at every level. There you go. I sat the bench. I didn't start at both positions I played. There was plenty of coaching during the game and for you to think otherwise must mean you had an excellent coach. The teaching that occured AFTER the last game obviously didn't stick. Well here is the difference. I was always a starter. There was no time for teaching when you are playing. Wow, maybe you should whip your dick out and show everybody how big it is. Don't you think that maybe just maybe some of these kids grew up without much structure or discipline in their lives and maybe just maybe they don't respond the same way you do because you're such a badass? Quit now. Before the awkward moment when both of you realize you were in a pissing contest and now you're just left holding your dicks out
  12. Ya, I loved the "Everybody here hates Iowa"
  13. Good post! Wearing a black jersey once = loss of tradition (To some in this thread) But who the f#*k lists Scarlett and Cream as a huge tradition at Nebraska? The first ten things on my list when I think of tradition are (in no particular order): 1. Blackshirts 2. Tunnel Walk 3. The Sellouts 4. Walk-Ons 5. The Retired Jerseys 6. The Heisman Trio 7. Bowl Games 8. The Back-to-Backs (70', 71') and (94', 95') 9. The Decade of Dominance 10. Academic All-Americans I don't see how a black jersey takes any of that away from us. It is what it is, a jersey.

    They are indeed looking suspect. Hopefully they can get things turned around.
