  1. I accidentally zoomed in my HB page to 80%, and I can't figure out how to change it back.  Can someone help a brutha out?

      You can also hold ctrl down while you move the mouse wheel up and down.

      You can sit closer or farther from the screen

      I use several different sized monitors and just move the video cable to the one I want.

  2. I have finally watched the Ohio State game.  Wow, I didn't expect it to be that ugly.  NU offered no resistance on either side of the ball.

      They treated it like a scrimmage, we treated it like we were an FCS Patsy that just got mad paid.

      At least now you can see how well Spielman played and what we were all talking about in the 200 yard thread.

    4. ColoradoHusk

      ColoradoHusk

      Correct, @HuskerInLostWages I did like how Spielman played.  He seemed like the one player out there who was giving a f*ck about the game.  I was wrong about my "garbage time" stats comment.

  3. I just realized I was following Mark Banker on Twitter.  He sent out his 2nd Tweet ever today. Quickly unfollowed.

      Same here.  :thumbs

      I didn’t realize it either until twitter notified me that Mark Banker tweeted for the first time in a while.....and unfollowed

  4. I know I'm in the minority here, but rooting for teams in your conference in bowl games is lame.

      @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.  

  5. I know the DPI on the fake punt was a terrible call, but how did the officials miss the Tanner Lee fumble at midfield early in the 2nd quarter?  He wasn't close to being down and he lost the ball.  NU caught a break there, and ended up getting a FG on that drive.

    1. RedDenver

      RedDenver

      If I'm remembering the play right, the refs ruled his forward progress stopped before the fumble, not that he was down.

    2. ColoradoHusk

      ColoradoHusk

      It's just weird that they ruled it that way when he's being brought down on a sack.  That call rarely happens.

      Except in the big 12 ;)

  6. I left at halftime and took my son golfing.  I enjoyed spending that time with him and following the comeback on my phone.  Too bad NU couldn't pull off the comeback.  I watched the 2nd half, and the offense had 4 straight empty drives and had good field position on all of them.

    1. funhusker

      funhusker

      I spent the the 3rd and 4th quarter playing catch with one of my 2nd grade sons because he thought he should practice to be ready to help the Huskers when he gets older.....I didn't realize NU was in it until the very end.  But my afternoon was awesome playing catch and assuming NU was getting beat 84

      -28.

      @funhusker My 1st grade son is just getting into the Huskers and football. He spent most of the 1st half telling me, "The other team scored again, Huskers are probably going to lose, huh?" and "The other team must have practiced a LOT more than the Huskers, right daddy?" Being a good parent is often an exercise in zen-like control of your emotions.

  7. I think I will put my half UCF-half Nebraska shirt to good use today.

      Under or over your B1G conference sweatshirt and Go Blue Michigan gear? :lol:

      My B1G conference sweatshirt is a full zipper hoody, so I can easily take it off when I flip over to the Peach Bowl.

    3. ColoradoHusk

      I can always take off my sweatshirt and wear this!!!

  8. I think it's great that Frost did such a great job at UCF, but I hope we can forget about that school from now on.

      UFC fans are so sick of Husker fans.

    3. HuskerNBigD

      HuskerNBigD

      Nebraska fans are enamored with UCF because it was the closes proxy to Nebraska being successful this year.

    4. mrandyk

      mrandyk

      It's also the offseason and a dead period for recruiting. We can either talk about UCF or Nebrasketball.

  9. I wonder how much $ goes into Big Red Max's hands when people accidentally click on one of the many pop-up ads on this dang page.

      Man, if I ever win the lottery, I'd buy this site and revert it back to the old ways

      @GSG I'd be happy just to have the site work well on my cell phone.

  10. I yelled at a parent at my daughter's school this morning because she parked her car in the drop-off lane.  I am a man!!!

      @ColoradoHusk are you waiting for us to ask if you're 40? If so, keep on waiting, busta.

    2. ColoradoHusk

      I am 41, but I wasn't trying to set up the question.  That is good though.  Now, get off my lawn!!!

      Did you vicariously grow a mullet this last year?

  11. I'm back after a self-imposed week-long ban after the NW game.  Everyone miss me?

    1. GSG

      GSG

      Not really lol. We're all just as stupid as usual. Once COVID s#!t is done though we should set up a Colorado Huskerboard meet and drink some sorrow beers lol

  12. If you think NU has had bad special teams, Baylor has missed 2 FG's and just muffed a punt in the Big 12 Championship game. This is a week after both OU and OSU muffed punts inside their own 5 in Bedlam.

    1. Mavric

      Mavric

      Those coaches obviously don't care about special teams.

    2. CheeseHusker

      CheeseHusker

      Is that a weekly event for them, though?

       

  13. In both of Riley's biggest "upsets" during his time at NU, his team was able to overcome a 12-point, 4th quarter deficit.  NU just needs to get to that 12 point deficit going forward.

    1. Thanks_Tom RR

      Thanks_Tom RR

      Don't worry. Riley's teams have a knack at getting behind early in a game (usually by multiple scores). Over 65% of snaps by the offense have been while trailing this season.

      That's a heck of a stat.

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      This is one area where both sides of the ball are doing their fair share.......getting us behind early. Who knew that could be a positive.

  14. Iowa is on pace to be outscored in their 3 losses by 55 points. NU had 9 losses by a combined 56 points. SMH.

      We should have beat Iowa. We beat ourselves. That one hurts as Iowa is way overrated.

    2. ColoradoHusk

      ColoradoHusk

      Iowa is the best team to depend on other team's mistakes. They just waited for NU to screw up. Frost has to get NU to stop screwing up. 

  15. It's sad that NU is 11 yards from being 0-3 right now.

    1. knapplc

      knapplc

      Yet we're 11 points from being undefeated in regulation so what's the universe trying to tell us?

    2. knapplc

      knapplc

      But wait, it gets weirder - We're seven days from our fourth game, and 7+4=11.

       

      BUT IT GETS WEIRDER STILL!!!

       

      1hENbKJ.png

       

      You last "won the day" on 4/11. And when you win it again it'll be your 11th time.  And your current Rep is divisible by four, and the last two numbers are 4 and seven, which adds up to 11!

       

      WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?!?!

  16. Jon Zatechka is on this week's Doc Talk Podcast with his brother, Rob.  I'm an hour into it.  Jon gives some good details on how his son, Isaac, was recruited out of high school, and Isaac's recent re-recruitment when Isaac transferred from Missouri recently.  Find it on your favorite podcast provider.  :D

  17. Kenny Bell getting another shot with the Ravens.  He was put on their practice squad today. I hope he can stay healthy, and eventually make it on the 53-man.

    1. Mavric

      Mavric

      Ravens are in a world of hurt (no pun intended) keeping WRs healthy right now.  Hopefully he makes the most of the chance.

  18. Listening to Benning this morning, he was pretty spot on regarding Frost having a very tough decision to come to NU.  That's the only point that Benning kept on making over the past few months, is that Frost was really enjoying coaching at UCF, and it was going to be a harder decision than most people thought for him to leave.  In fact, Frost had to be talked into following through with NU by Osborne on Friday night.  Of course, most people just want to say that DB was being a hater, and didn't like Frost.

      Thanks for posting this ColoradoHusker. Damon is not the ogre many people portray him to be.

  19. Michigan-Ohio State officially canceled.  I can't wait for the Big Ten to miraculously change their rules and standards for Ohio State.

      @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.

  22. Minnesota scored 10 points in each of the 2 games before playing Nebraska. Hangs 54 on the El Diaco D, and is now being shut out at Northwestern. One of these things is not like the other. 

  23. Moos quit watching the Huskers yesterday and started watching the UCF game like 90% of the rest of Husker fans.

  24. Northwestern regresses towards the mean today.

      If we had been 6-0 and cruising towards a B1G West title and lost to MSUcks (or Illinois).  Can you imagine?

  25. Not Husker related, but I have loved how the entire internet has dunked on Coach K after the Dookies loss to UNC last night. There is good in humanity!
