  1. I am far from a racist, but I find the topic very appealing, so I'll ask the question.... I have always wondered how black athletes feel about stuff like this. A cowboy/farmer on the side of their helmets? Or how Frazier, and others felt running out of the tunnel in the 90's following Herbie "White as I can be Swede" Husker. I know, I know.... It's our culture, etc., etc..... Just a thought....
  2. As long as Urban Meyer is there, I will never root for Ohio St..... That arrogant bastard; who does he think he is planning on instructing other coaches on how to recruit? Given the competitive spirit of other coaches, I doubt it will go over well.... Maybe a Pelini head-butt, followed by Hoke sitting on him.... He wants to raise the prestige level of the B1G, across the board, so that a 1-loss B1G team doesn't get looked at as well, they were only playing in the B1G. It's good for all of us. Who does he think he is? One of the best recruiters in the country. And that's pride getting in the way of competitive spirit if other coaches aren't receptive to what he has to say. Bashing Urban may give us fans a small measure of comfort but it's probably better to deal in reality. The most industrious coaches will look at what he's doing and learn from his best qualities while avoiding his worst. The second-rate coaches will grumble and grumble and get offended and purse their lips and carry on. Leave it to the coaches to take what they want from his best qualities. Or let them seek him out. That is fine that he wants the best for this conference (we all do), but even if these were his intentions at the coaches meetings, he should have kept it out of the public. You're kidding yourself if you think Bo will respond, and welcome Urban's criticism with open arms. These guys are prideful, and they all think they know what they doing.... Do I think Urban is a better coach than Bo? More accomplished sure, better? No. Do I think he is a better recruiter? Maybe, but from the start at Florida he had access to better talent, and now he has the reputation to help him. I personally like Bo's style of recruiting; in your face, honest, and a dose of family values.... After a MNC, Urban had a #11 class at Florida. After a 10-4 season full of big losses, Bo had a #17 class at Nebraska. Who is the more impressive recruiter? I'm not going to say Bo is a better recruiter, or coach. However, I will say that I like his approach more, and I believe him to be a better person. Angry faces, and sideline yelling aside; I think it is safe to say that Bo is a really, really good person....

  4. Horrible.... There is nothing cool about Herbie Husker on your helmet....

  6. Wouldn't this be the 2013 B1G Championship? Why can't we be undefeated too.....
  7. I hope Urban Meyer trys to tell Pelini how to recruit better....Haha, that will go over real well.....

      If we win, better believe it that I'll find my way on Fox broadcast with a sign asking Urban if he wants Bo to teach him how to recruit.

      Bo would smack that ass.

      I am game Q! I will start saving money now for tickets and a bedazzled board to get the attention of the audience lol.

  8. Colorado... Idaho State There's a difference? Only in location....

      And quite frankly a lot of it sounds the same. And I get sick of Taylor swifts latest break up song.

      If you mean real country music that's played today, then I'd agree. Stuff like Daniel Romano, Shooter Jennings, Ted Russell Kamp, heck even Jamey Johnson.

  11. I've never jumped, and yelled so much about a Husker game as I did when Suh picked off that ball, and ran it back....
  12. I like the guy so far.... Has the right approach to the job....
  13. I want to see it.... Obviously there are some that will. Living in Western Nebraska, most people I know have no respect for the program and don't want anything to do with them. I don't respect the program, but I want to see Nebraska beat that ass.... You know, give them a good hiding....
  14. I agree, if the sell out streak ends, it means passion has ended. That speaks of something terrible going on wt the program - (or a freak snow storm that kept eveyone away!!!). Actually the 2 streaks that continue - the sellout and the academic All- Americans speak the loudest about our program. It says we have built this program on passion, the love of the game and on academic integrity. No short cuts and no major NCAA violations. These streaks are ones we can be very proud of and I see continuing. The newly extended 92k seat stadium will be sold out as well. No doubt.... Proud to be a Husker, and a Nebraskan....
  15. I like him at OLB.... Would be crazy coming off the edge.....
  16. hid·ing 2 [hahy-ding] noun Informal. a severe beating; flogging; thrashing. Old people (sigh)....
  17. Not trying to argue, I just am wondering who you are talking about. I'm curious about this as well. I can't come up with any examples. I wasn't a fan of Cross "burning" his redshirt last year but he did get carries throughout the season. Curry's redshirt was going to be burned before the injury, and his playing time was slowing significantly.... I guess maybe Heard his frosh year. I don't think it has been an ongoing problem at all.....
