  1. I like to picture my Lavonte David in a tuxedo t-shirt. Because it says I wanna look nice but I'm here to party. But in all seriousness, I could kinda see Lavonte being used a lot like how Clay Matthews is used if he were to bulk up a little bit.
  2. Glad I found this thread. I usually post on Husker football when drunk. Also, in the interest of fairness to thread titles, BUMP!
  3. Trying to be unbiased, and someone who had seen both teams play a bit, Arkansas vs. NU would look a lot like Iowa/NU i think. Not the exact same score, but Nebraska by 10 at least. Assuming the team is ready to roll. I think the defense will look top notch in this game being as its Lavonte and Fonzie's last showing... Arkansas just seems too pocket-passing oriented to me with a mid-level defense. A great match-up for the 'skers.
  4. Just spitballing here... "Members only" jackets?
  5. I wish I would have run into you in Madison, badgerfan. You seem pretty friggin cool. As far as everything else goes, this board is usually pretty fair and balanced. May as well stick around!
  6. What if you're actually friends them?
  7. Obviously, first and foremost, our thoughts and prayers were with Ben Cotton's nuts that night...
  8. Shoelace is a dummy if he even looks to Fonzie's side of the field.
  9. We ask for a chance that's fair..
  10. Jack Trice Stadium = toughest place in America to play... Ask this year's Iowa squad.
  11. Nice first post. If you're here to troll, don't get comfortable. You won't be here long. Wait a second, you repeated half my post almost word for word than cut it out for this response and Im trolling? I actually thought I treated Pelini with kid gloves considering I left out his sideline antics, media presence, and the way he's handled our offense the last 3 years Nah, you said we have horrible coaching and we're coming off of consecutive conference championship game appearances and we are in the running to make it three straight. It was not an intelligent (and more importantly, accurate) statement. EDIT: And when you are referring to his media presence, are you intentionally ignoring the accolades Pelini has received for his post-game interviews following the Penn State game regarding the delicate (and infuriating) situation in State College? Only someone who doesn't want to see it could state that Pelini hasn't improved markedly in this area this year. Accolades for saying the game shouldn't have happened and taking away even more from PSU Collegiate Athletes who expeirienced the most horrendous week one can imagine? A trained monkey knows the victims of the PSU debacle were top priority but to strip away the PSU players chance to live out their dreams of going un-beaten in the B1G seems ridiculous to me.Im referring to the way he handles the media and the officiating crews not to mention his attitude towards the fans responsible for his 3 million dollars he receives. His consistant blaming of the players for the Northwestern type losses is ridiculous, what I am seeing on the field is a product of coaching/recruiting. He made it too consecutive conference games in a Big XII North who replaced most of their head coaches, who couldnt with the athletes he had. What other Big XII North team could possibly make it? So being in the running for a third on the hopes and prayers of MSU is respectable after that home game disaster that was Northwestern? Lets see how the next 2 games go before we get too excited about relying on MSU to send us in the back door of a "down" Conference Championship. You really think if the PSU players had not experienced the worst possible scenerio possible last week, lost their head coach and all the emotion they endured we would still be in the hunt?
  12. When somebody passes away, a football game isn't exactly on the minds of the family members. I know in my family we wouldn't schedule a funeral at the same time as a game out of respect for the deceased. No one would want their funeral to force people to miss a game. But in such a case, go to the funeral. You only get one chance to pay your final respects.
  13. Damn... Sorry guys, I fudged up.
  14. It was the game that we don't talk about. On the road against, first and foremost, Greg Burks. I've been saying it since the schedule came out that if we're gonna get screwed by he refs it would be this game. I have faith in my Huskers, but it's thoughts like this that make me worried. Someone please tell me I'm crazy.
  15. I hate that they never schedule more than 2 or 3 even decent opponents per season and still whine when they don't get a shot at a MNC. And I think we will find in the coming years that Boise isn't exactly squeaky clean in the recruiting area. My teams: CFB: Nebraska and absolutely no one else with any consistency (ie- I cheer for who Iowa plays) NFL: The Niners MLB: the Cubbies NBA: NYK! Go Knicks! NHL: Minnesota Wild Soccer: Man U CBB: Nebrasketball, but I pull for Duke in the tourney because of Coach K
  16. Those stats aren't >80%. Just saying. However, containing D Rob must be of emphasis. Using David to do so makes sense. You are correct! I threw the numbers into Excel and .88 popped out, and I didn't pay attention to the numbers. Turns out I used 3,475 instead of 2,475. So it's 60%, or a little more. Thanks for catching that. +1 It's right around 63%. Jsayin'... It's 63.025%. And I'm glad we have that all cleared up now. Well according to Kevin from the Office it's, "Those are big numbers. I'm just gonna put down 'a lot'." To clarify, I did not actually consult him.

  18. Well, it has been an interesting transformation. AH uses the "game changer" vs "game manager" description, which I think is apt. For whatever reason, T-Mart's game changing explosive plays (on his feet) have been held relatively in check. He has still run effectively at times, but his number of 20+ yard runs has dipped. I think his "manager" role has also helped him avoid turnovers. I am not arguing against the change, but it does come at cost (lost big plays). Against, MSU or PSU, the manager role was fine, because Bo's D matched up well. But against teams with mobile QBs (OSU, NW, WI), where our D allowed points, it put a lot of onus on T-Mart and offense to match point for point. This Mich game is going to see points scored (at least by Mich). T-Mart is going to need to make some plays, whether via the air or on the ground to keep NU in the game. Thank you. Don't know what I'd do without you putting on my "captian obvious" hat (sometimes I wonder why people have to explain things that are so plain to see - but thanks for having the patience that I clearly don't have) While I understand the point that if we lose it may be because Taylor reverted back to his form in the UW game, but a loss doesn't neccesarily mean back to square 1 for him because when we lost to NW it was pretty obvious that Taylor played very well. I think this game will shape up like OSU last year. We will get scored on. We simply have to score on them more. I would be tickled pink if we win 42-41 and I could easily see that happening.
