Mizzou is almost as snakebit at RB as Iowa. Two years ago Mizzou's #1 RB Derrick Washington fondled his tutor while she was asleep. Got kicked off the team in late August. Ended up in the pokey and never played another down of football. Last year their #1 RB Kendial Lawrence broke his leg in September. Missed the whole season except two meaningless non-conf games. THis year they lose RB Josey to an injury from last season that apparently hasn't healed up. I think the AIRBHG has a twin brother: AMRBHG.

Pretty good article from Sam. If you like pre-season Kool-Aid. Like I do.

RIP. A moment of silence for the Count in one-two-three-four-FIVE seconds.

The mood elevating compounds can be administered the standard way, or orally.

Kool-Aid article from Sip. But we do have a pretty good stable of RBs right now. Question is, do we have enough roadgraders to clear the way?

Is there a way to do this? I tried searching around the interwebz and saw some stuff about writing your own code for the IP.board in order to this. I was just curious. It seems like more and more people on the board are using twitter.

As we sit here and agonize over the number of guys we've lost off the team this year, it's good to put the whole thing into perspective. Nebraska certainly isn't alone in losing players - for whatever reason - and we're not even close to the top of the list in number of players lost. In the Big Ten alone Iowa and Penn State have had more attrition - although Penn State's are for obvious reasons. LINK BIG TEN Team - # Penn St - 20 Iowa - 12 Nebraska - 9 Indiana - 8 Illinois - 6 Michigan - 6 Michigan St - 6 Minnesota - 5 Wisconsin - 5 Ohio St - 4 Purdue - 4 Northwestern - 3 By way of comparison, the SEC has huge attrition rates. Nebraska would be middle-of-the-pack in the SEC. SEC Team - # Arkansas - 19 Mississippi St - 18 South Carolina - 15 LSU - 14 Kentucky - 11 Tennessee - 10 Mississippi - 9 Alabama - 8 Missouri - 8 Texas A&M - 8 Florida - 7 Georgia - 7 Vanderbilt - 7 Auburn - 5

Anybody play the demo? I played a few games last night. I kinda like it. I'm considering buying it. The new tackling engine is cool, but sometimes guys just fall down from barely touching anyone. I had a running back flop like a fish because I brushed up against an offensive lineman.

Exactly the same as the original except: Chinese invade America instead of Russians/Cubans/Nicoroguans Except: Having Chinese attack America is deemed pollitcly incorrect so post-production edit to North Koreans Spoiler alert: The North Koreans are defeated when a side of beef is found behind their lines - they break ranks to get their first good meal in two years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Dawn_%282012_film%29

Conference Kool-Aid article. Mostly touches on the positives. But they do get into the B1G's lack of a MNC contender this past decade.

We need to get a recruiting pipeline in place to Centennial.

LINK . I get killed by Weeping Angels. /edit: Sorry. I f'd up when I plorsted it this morning.

Just got an ESPN text that Tyrann Mathieu is looking to transfer - per Joe Schad

Looks to me like Minnesota had the best Olympics.

Well I may or may not of went MIA for a bit. And some have wondered what the f#*k went on. So here is a tale for the children. I was cleaning up some Droids my uncle had just bought, when I discovered a hidden message from a princess. she said she was in trouble and only Obi one could help her........wait that was Star Wars. My bad. Honestly, this guy just took a little break from the board and assumed lurker status. On my hiatus I did go on a vision quest. During my quest I visited with the man in black,Johnny Cash. He told me to tell the rambler, the gambler and back biter that sooner or later God will cut them down. He said sooner or later Crewe,God will strike you down. We then proceeded to kill a handle of Beam while discussing the finder points of Pavlovian principles. Seriously nothing bad or eventful happened. Was busy with work and reworking the man cave. And honestly just needed a break of the Offseason duldrums. One final thing, the grey matter in the cranium has been working overtime with plans of world domination for the one and only Clique. You all have been warned.

I've noticed quite a few athletes in the Olympics with what appears to be strips of tape. Did a little research and it looks to be KT Tape (Kinesiology Therapeutic Tape). Has anyone tried this stuff or uses it now? I routinely strain my lower calf when running to the point it hurts to run. I'm wondering if wearing this tape will minimize the pain. http://www.kttape.com/

Gettin some love from the Rivals. : Meechicken and NU the only B10 teams in this list.

Good read. I'm looking forward to seeing the BTN report tonight. :
