Big time news for Miles and his staff. Now he just needs to take advice from Al Davis: Just win baby.

While the very end of that writeup is not exactly what Husker fans want to read, good on Bookie for saying it. I'm sure he gets sick hearing how he's not fully committed to Nebraska and what not. Until he publicly comes out and says he's going somewhere else I'm damn glad he's part of our class. Apparently he has yet to see something that makes him want to change his mind. Just keep pushing and get him up here for his visit and we will be good to go. And if not then you can't blame the staff. They've done a wonderful job recruiting this kid.

That would be a good reason. Just seems weird to me. But i'm not going to second guess Urban and co. ability to recruit and project kids. They clearly know what the hell they're doing.

I would say most likely. The reason I say that is it was mentioned that Tre had swelling in his knee the day following the Arky St. game and Riley played it off as a normal thing for him. Knowing that I would think you would try to somewhat limit his carries in the first game.

Is there a prize for high point guy each week? Maybe we can get a custom avi/sig floating around for that as well. And biggest loser each week.

Is it a case of maybe Ohio State thinking Parsons may be the one most interested in them of the 3 guys and them turning more of their attention to the other 2? Just trying to figure out why Ohio State wouldn't be pushing as hard as they can for this guy.

If this happens with how much more talent we will have than them I think all the Riley haters would be on to something. No way this game should be a back and forth battle. Even if we are down Tre and the coaches don't like Ozigbo (for whatever reason) we should be able to control the LOS and get Lee into a comfortable rhythm to get his confidence back before conference play.

Correct me if I'm wrong but a Wiltfong crystal ball holds some pretty legitimate weight doesn't it?

That whole Jamire Calvin situation may be the most odd recruiting decision I have ever seen.

The coaches tried real hard last year to get a big bodied guy who could come in and help us. Joe Lewis went to USC and Bryan Thompson went to Utah. Those are the 2 that come to mind. The coaches realize they need big bodies on the outside to help out the speed/slot guys on the inside.

First full Sunday of games is finally here. Time to see how things will play out. I think the good smack talk should most likely be on the ESPN board. Keep this appropriate for the general public.

4-1-1 for the year. Not a bad week.

I'll take 4-2 assuming you guys count a push as a loss. Not a bad start.

Figured I might as well try. Pretty sure it was: iowa over iowa state clemson over auburn NW over duke Louisville over UNC nebraska +13 TCU over Arkansas i really like my odds honestly.

Pulled up bovada to check the lines and put in a parlay. Had .50 in my account. Completey different from my picks above. .50 wins me $8.12.

Great pick Mav. This doesn't belong in the fantasy forum but the NFL really needs to figure out a way to handle suspensions better. There's like 40 appeal processes (over exaggerating a little there) that players can go through. Find a way to make whatever suspension is handed down final. These drawn out decisions make it hard for a fantasy owner. We deserve more clarity.

Tend to agree with most of the points in the article. Doesn't mean I'm going to get my hopes up for this game as I still don't know what to expect out of either team, but I'm thinking it will be a pretty damn good football game. Don't see either team getting blown out in this one.

Ha I'll let you guys battle it out for the money and I'll just do it for fun this year. I'll just post mine so you guys can see which games you should've picked each week. Needless to say here are my 6 games for the week to catch up to you guys because whats the fun in being 3 games behind: Illinois +7 Clemson -6 Ohio State -7.5 Georgia +5 Nebraska +13.5 Iowa -3

Couldn't find the lines for the games in in the omaha paper online as I don't have a subscription. Cool if i just use the Bovada lines?

Ok now those are some good looking helmets.

So if I make 6 picks this week can I hop in on this?

Thought Deontre had a surprisingly strong game. Remember a couple plays where he pushed the center straight back towards the QB. Hopefully this play from him continues. Also interesting to see the Big 10 with 3 of the top 4 freshman this past week.

Quick, someone come up with some prop bets for the year.

Glad you have figured this out after 1 game. Lets just pack it in for the year and start our coaching search now.

Read this today. Good read. Between this and the rivals article that was posted today it really put my mind at ease as far as the whole Florida thing goes.
