      1 more win this season than Mike Riley won in 3 years of being the football coach.

      It happened towards the end of a high school BB game I was playing in.  At the time the score was pretty close and we ended up losing.  But by more than a couple points, so it's not like it cost us the game I guess.  btw, The guy had been drinking.  A lot apparently.  lol

  4. Are they ever going to upgrade South stadium?

      Pretty sure that's all it will be.  Don't know how they could do a major renovation.

    3. Red Five

      There are blueprints for a south stadium "reconstruction", but I am not sure when/if it will ever happen.  I posted about it in some thread a couple years ago.

       

      Found what I posted in couple years ago ->

      I think - if there was going to be a major renovation - that it would be something along those lines.  I just don't see how they would ever be able to handle the logistics of something like that.  They'd basically have to completely demolish the existing South Stadium and start over.  And I don't think that's possible in nine months from December through August.  So you'd be without the entire South Stadium for (at least) one football season.  Which is going to make a lot of people very upset.  And there would be fewer seats - though more high-dollar seats - but I'm not sure that it would be worth that much money and time to do.

  5. B10 is 3-1 vs the B12 this year...fact for the day

      Saban should be making $24M annually?

      This staff is underpaid yet people think it would be unfair to pay athletes because they get a free education.  

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      I don't think it's an issue of being fair or not. Of course without the players the CFB cash cow would dry up for a lot of programs. But, I think the issue is if we're going to treat it like an amateur sport or if it's going to be a paid professional gig. I don't really care but we've already got the NFL (which I like much less than CFB) so I'd rather it stay amatuer student athletes. If a $45,000 per year education isn't good enough for the players then they can choose to do something else.

      @HuskerInLostWagesAnd his sister committed to UGA after the incident, which by the way, was not experienced by Fields- he only heard that it had happened. That’s why I say kids now have a template- just claim you heard a racial slur was spoken somewhere on campus, by someone, at sometime 

    3. NoKoolAidForME

      NoKoolAidForME

      No one knows what the reason was for the transfer.  The school also granted him an uncontested release. To make assumptions and treat them as facts IMO is irresponsible.

      The reason he and his attorney filed for a waiver against the sit out rule is in fact known. 

  9. Line is dropping. Martinez is playing...

      That's more an indictment of Michigan's offense against our (surprisingly good with lots of potential to be great at season's end) defense than it is anything else IMO. Their O-Line is trash and play-calling has been suspect for years, and their skill players rattle easily. 

       

      If we punch them in the mouth (metaphorically, of course) and put them on their heels, we have a puncher's chance of winning this. 

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      I'm guessing 2AM playing would move the line more than 1 or 1.5 points. If not. I really don't know what I'm (or Vegas is) doing.

    4. krc1995

      krc1995

      The only reason the lines is dropping is because more people bet Nebraska than Michigan that’s how Vegas works. Smart bettors would pay attention to what the line does.

      It's a really good class. Long, athletic, and some real spirit. Need about a similar haul next year to get the group rolling again.

      @ScottyIce is correct. All of the pants stripes will be used on the alternate uniforms which will be ENTIRELY stripes

      If your group enjoys cigars, you gotta check out Havana Garage, really cool spot and they have a sneaky good patio in the back.

       

      Mister Toads probably has the best patio downtown if that's your bag.

       

      Upstream is a decent space and they have pool tables.

       

      My favorite place downtown is La Buvette, it's a smaller space with seating for maybe 30 people inside but they have a decent patio out front and it's an awesome spot for wine.  Service can be a bit prickly but that's just the way it is there.

      Not in that area (that I know of) but Benson has Beercade.

      What WR's in the B1G are better, or really even close? Pretty sure we didn't play against any. That's some BS right there 

    3. ZRod

      ZRod

      I don't think anyone had a better receiver combo in the B1G than us. We may have been pretty high nationally as well. I can only remember Stan dropping one or two passes he should have caught this year.

    4. TonyStalloni

      TonyStalloni

      The coaches poll picked Rondale Moore (Purdue) and Parris Campbell (OSU) while the media poll chose Moore as well and also Tyler Johnson of Minnesota. Neither Moore nor Campbell were the prime receivers when we played them but Johnson burned us for 184 yards on 11 catches.

  17. What % do you browse the web like ESPN and Huskerboard on your phone vs a PC?

      66% phone

      32% iPad

      2% PC

       

      Although phone will be drastically decreasing on HB if they don't fix this sh#t.

      I spend a lot more time on my phone than I want. I have huge monitors on my PC. I hate browsing the web on my phone's tiny screen. My tablet is better, but still too small.

       

      Also, mobile versions of websites are uglier than desktop versions. And I hate the mobile-friendly fonts and big kludgy ganky layouts they use.

  18. Why can I not upload a screen shot to a post? It says file is too large

    1. Toe

      Because the file is too large? :dunno

      Seems OK for me, maybe don't save it in BMP format? Or maybe you've exceeded the total amount you can upload?

      ^ That was two copies of the same screenshot, one in JPEG and one in PNG.

       

      If you're on a super high-res phone and trying to save an un-resized screenshot, those can be pretty huge.

      Not sure if you can discern an "it" factor from HS tape - unless you mean "it" is the ability to make some big time throws. I think this video shows that.

      Big Ern - the thing I don't get is that his material is arguably better than it used to be. It's not just gangster bs, like it used to be. But is flow is not the same. I don't know if he forgot how, or if the beats he uses now sort of stiffen up his feel, but that's what drives me nuts about his current music compared to his early stuff, which was dope.

    4. Hercules

      Hercules

      That said, it seems to be a problem across hip hop, in my opinion. Nas and Kendrick are still fairly sophisticated from a rhythmic standpoint, Em still can be when he wants to be (see the 2011 BET cypher), but otherwise there's a lot of really bland stuff out there.

      Can't watch that right now, but if it isn't a continuous loop of Kenny's catch, Ameer's run and Tommy's 180 reversal, you might be doing it wrong.

      Lol, it has all 3 of them in there knapp, just audio is messed up at first, but its all gravy after the mess up.

      Saw him at Snowball last year. Came out pretty flat for the first song or 2 (think it was bc of the cold that night - it was in the negatives) but put on an excellent show once he got goin.
