I don't doubt that Benning is a good dude, he can just get on the nerves from time to time, especially when he doesn't have someone to help ferry him through a conversation. I kind of feel like he's going to have to be the traffic cop on his new show. 

@ColoradoHusk Up here in MN, they have 1 show that talks a lot of sports. The morning show does some sports but they are across the board it has made them VERY successful. I found myself getting fairly bored at times with 1620 because the same 4 stories are talked about by all the shows. I get Husker football has to be the driving factor but I think a good mix of shows helps break it up. Have one show that is heavy sports/heavy guests. One show that is more goofy(think Schick and Nick) and one that maybe goes more serious topics(cant get too political). KFAN up here in MN does that and they have some of the most successful shows in every timeslot.

1620 was at its beak when it had schick/nick and Kugler/Severe. They were very different shows in some aspects but were able to capture their audience. 

@Minnesota_husker @ColoradoHusk

Being different is exactly what I appreciate about Josh/John compared to the other two. There show is much more wide ranging, and as I said earlier, though he's not my favorite kind of host, Josh is very good.

He played well except for the part where the team put it all on his shoulders, and he blew the biggest lead in Super Bowl history.

NE needed that immediate near red zone fumble recovery. Plus two times of the Falcons taking themselves out of FG range. Plus two more TDs and two PATs. Plus a TD in OT.

Crazy.

By PATs I mean 2pt conversions, I guess.

3 days older than Valerie Bertinelli

Ohhhh...Did you also get with Ed Van Halen???

My big brother almost talked me into skipping my hs graduation to see Van Halen in Denver.

I think Carter will be the biggest loss. His blocking and all around game is really important to us this year.

They've struggled in his absence.

Carter will be a big loss, he is a unique talent that isn't elsewhere on the roster (although I think Cotton/Foster both did ok last 2 weeks).

Cethan is what I always wanted Kyler Reed to be. We badly underutilized Reed.

@Frontrunner, since we're all being cordial, my name is Enrique, my favorite color is clear, I'm hooked on phonics, I love warm hugs, and I have a drinking problem, but only when I park in the red zone. 

My real name is Scarlett Overkill

Hahaaa, jokes! And we're laughing. 

IS THERE A DIFFERENCE?

YOU TELL ME!

WHERE DO WOMEN COME INTO PLAY SHANIA TWAIN HAS SOME THOUGHTS

Well, we know “the team that can’t be beat” is wrong. They’ve been getting beat like a drum for years. I like ‘Til we can’t be beat much better. At least that expresses a goal and not an outright lie.

It's always been "'til we can't be beat, won't be beat!"

The Husker prayer getting out has easily been worth 1.5 losses per season.

Murray is looking at $30-50M guaranteed in the next 5 years in football.  In baseball, he's at $5M right now, and isn't guaranteed to hit the majors in the next 2 years, if ever.  From what I hear, he is very raw in baseball.  He just has amazing speed and a great arm.

Maybe he talked with Bubba Starling?

Football is the far better sport. Lots of $ either way and he picked the sport that's more fun to play. QBs also get a lot more attention than any position in baseball other than maybe pitcher but maybe not even pitcher.

Baseball isn't as bad for the health (despite it possibly being safer for QBs now) so that's the only real negative, imo.

JJ, I don't really want to go, but we have to play the 8th grade game of not wanting to hurt people's feelings.

I hope you fall in...without a life jacket...I have seen you try to swim

I don't think little kids life jackets cost too much. We had a couple around the house for long time....similar deal. Could probably unload them at a garage sale afterwards.

He left 11 million on the table 

wish I could take that since he doesn’t want it. 

Let's see how this season plays out. I think it's a tough one, but long term I don't think that's the case. Maybe it's not as elite as we'd hope and so he should go eventually, but it's not that bad either.

Anyway, this was more about OSU. People were abuzz about the Andersen hire. Every time they landed a 4* it was news. There was some argument that they'd do better without Riley. GA is now 7-22.

@zoogs are you watching the same games everyone else is?  NU isn't competing against any teams with a pulse, and also has the bad habit of losing to teams we shouldn't.

I loved Kenny his first few years....not so much the last year when he seemed to decide his opinions were more important than his play.

Did he tap himself out of the conversation?

Yeah, Dude, KB should be playing through concussions.

@knapplc has won more days than you've been alive.

@ColoradoHusk Unfortunately, as the site adds in rep from subsequent days, we can lose days we have already won. Looks like Mav overtook you and "won" that day now. 

I just saw that I now didn't win the day.  Dangit!!!  Oh well, Mav is a good competitor to lose to.

I would say the woman broke up her marriage.  Not Carl.

I agree St. Paul, but the booster blamed Carl, and demanded that Carl leave NU. 

I think the woman went down to FAU with Carl when he took the job there. 

I sorta feel for the guy. Even though I'm not a big Tiger fan. Oh well.

Yeah...he is having soooo many issues...500 Million dollars...hot ex wife that he banged all the time...tons of other sloots that he bangs...tons of houses and his own island I think...gosh...I hope he can shoot around par so things start going better for him.

Pretty sure his body is failing him and he may never be able to overcome it.

I'm not saying Gerry was perfect, but to just totally ignore him because he is 2 years younger than someone is lame.

Cooper and Mitchell? Could see it

I see where you're coming from Zoogs. Gerry hadn't quite "earned" that respect in our eyes as far as on the field. Off the field I don't know, but it looks like the guy is committed. The year he had last year has everyone's attention now. Now he's a captain. There's no denying that leadership anymore.

True, @HuskerNBigD, but I think Meyer is thinking "glad to have you back, Greg, Tennessee really screwed you over."

IMO it seemed more like Ten folks just hated the hire and dig some digging so they could stop the hire. Yeah, the stories could be true but it's really a he said/he said kind of thing. 

In other words if Tennessee had hired Saban no one would have bothered turning over all the rocks to find something damning. 

Agree, @RunMickeyRun02.  Clay Travis was the big Tennessee guy who was mad at the hire, and dug up this stuff at Penn State and started the Twitter storm.  That exploded on campus, and Schiano was all of a sudden "not the hire".

Wow on the draft. Good company. I think he’s got a chance somewhere else 

I didn’t realize 2011 draft. Where does time go? 

Jose Fernandez too

I still do it.... but I think I still look young enough that I can get away with it. My rule is as long as there is at least one player in the NFL older than me, it's okay. I'm turning 37 soon, so I might not have much time.

I don't get why people care so much. It's a great way to support both a team and an individual player.

Didn't mean to ruffle any feathers. I am all for wearing team gear. I just think that jerseys look like crap and are overpriced. JMHO.

A guy on my FFL named his team that. Apparently very popular on ESPN

Mo Money Mo Bruises

Hey, it should make her decision easier. Divorce him and get what he's got now before he spends it all and ends up broke which he will.

I think they should be able to transfer if they're looking for a grad degree that the school there at doesn't have… What's wrong with that

That was the original intent of grad transfers, but now kids use fake graduate studies to act like a free agent.

Well maybe it's fake… But how does anyone know? A lot of people start their graduate degree and don't finish it.

@ladyhawke I root for TCU and Baylor in the Big 12.  Sometimes I can get behind Iowa State.  I like Texas A&M (SEC, former Big12) and Arkansas (SEC, former SWC).  I also like watching SMU and Houston (former SWC teams).

I root for Iowa State as many of the folks I went to NWMSU were Clone fans. I’m from Missouri so I would root for them and Oklahoma because we were such fun rivals. I don’t root for Colorado. Ever.  

ColoradoHusk I’m glad your family was safe. My daughter lives in Denver but was with family in Missouri when the fires hit. She was texting friends who live in Superior. Thank God they were evacuated.  There were so many who lost their homes. So sad.  

Does Doris Roberts count? She was yesterday.

Somewhere right now, Charlie Murphy is devastated.

One too many marijuanas yesterday

Dearly beloved. We are gathered today to get through this thing called life..

Also, alcohol and tobacco are probably worse for you than weed. So don't pat yourselves too hard, you'll break your backs

I agree that pot is a pretty harmless drug and doesn't have the negative impact on your body like alcohol and tobacco. I just didn't like the feeling of smoking out.

I told class that I found out what 4/20 means - Its PAYDAY (in my district)

@Mike McdeeI'm with you. They are probably going to hire a very qualified candidate, who we know very little about.  But, it's not a one man search like the last one was.

Good. Now Dave must stay.

It’s so obvious you guise. They talked to Trev and found out he doesn’t like Scott. Name removed from consideration.

Montez is only a junior, so he could still come back.  I am wondering if he will look to grad transfer to another school if MacIntyre is indeed fire.

So now CU is denying the report? Get it together you stoner mountain hippies!

Damn, I was really looking forward to Nebraska beating them by at least 40 next year with him still the head coach... All well, I look forward to Nebraska beating them by at least 40 next year without him the head coach.
