  1. If that's not the greatest thing of all time, then I don't know what is. (DISCLAIMER: I say that only because I honestly don't know what the greatest thing of all time is.)
  2. I'd love to see some different formations like that from time to time. If we have four (or even three) running backs who can all perform at a high level, imagine the confusion we could cause and the options we'd have if we could get all three of them on the field at the same time.
  3. I was on the opposite end of that deal. I watched the massacre that put Frank Solich on the hot seat at a party at a friend's home in South Fork, CO. Three of us were Husker fans, another three didn't care, and about 5 or 6 other people there were abused childr -- errrrr, I mean Buffalo fans. Talk about feeling an inch tall. I wanted to be almost any other place on the planet than in that house in front of the TV during that game.
  4. I had a feeling the Nebraska-Wiscy game would be on that list. That one should be one helluva battle.
  5. His list lacks credibility when he has 2005 Texas higher than 1972 USC and 2001 Miami. Also, he doesn't have Washington on there. I would probably put them in my top 10. And where is 97 Michigan? Everybody knows they're the best ever! Yeah, the '05 Texas team has to be a bias pick. They were good, sure, but '72 USC and '01 Miami good? I don't think so. That '01 Miami team might have given the '95 Huskers a run for their money.
  6. I love how some people (mainly that one idiot from the Northwestern message board on Rivals) claim that Nebraska wouldn't have even been a contender for a national championship if they were in the Big Ten in '95. Yeah, the Huskers embarrassed the #2-ranked team in the country, which dominated the SEC easily, but they'd have struggled in the Big Ten.
  7. My reaction was "meh". If people like 'em, they'll buy 'em.
  8. Rex is a stud. I have no doubt that he can handle being the feature back. I'm sure between Heard, Abdullah, and Green, we'll have no problem providing the "lightning" to Burkhead's "thunder", too. I'm not too worried about our rushing attack this year.
  9. That's one of the most idiotic statements I've ever read, and I've seen people attempt to prove that they were Mufasa from the Lion King in a past life. As for why I voted Iowa in the poll: simple. We share a state border. They hate us. We hate them. 'Nuff said.
  10. I do remember one announcer saying that they could add/remove sand to impact the speed of the game. More sand and it packed into a harder surface, less sand and it was more spongy. So when we played a speadier team like Texas, or a quicker no-huddle attack like MU, then we'd remove sand to slow it down. (he might have been full of sh!t, but that's what I heard so i'm stickin to it) There's no way in hell they'd have gotten away with that.
  11. I agree with that. With Shawn Watson at the helm, we might as well have let the opposing teams' D coordinators call the plays for us. It was never a mystery what we were going to do offensively. Hopefully Beck adds some diversity to the playbook.
  12. Man, the amount of time they must put into maintaining that field has to be astronomical. It looks immaculate.
  13. I love summer, but HOT DAMN I'm ready for some Husker football!
  14. Wyoming game. Turner's gonna take the kickoff at Nebraska's goal line and take it all the way back to Chadron.
  15. If you were to make a prediction, what would it be? Ya know, hypothetically speaking. Speaking strictly for the Big Ten, I could go either way on a prediction. I think we have a decent shot at winning the division, but a conference championship in our first year in the B1G is a tall order at best.
  16. http://espn.go.com/nfl/trainingcamp11/story/_/id/6870889/ndamukong-suh-detroit-lions-fined-20k-slamming-andy-dalton-cincinnati-bengals When have ANY of Suh's penalized hits been "AFTER the whistle"?! He better hope Suh doesn't hear about that. Joe won't even be able to hear the whistle for all the ringing in his head when Suh gets done with him if he did hear about it.
  17. I'm making no predictions. I'll buy into the hype when Bo's hoisting the NC trophy.
  18. And you married this woman? I keed. I keed.
