    Nebraska's Dead

    It's the fourth quarter and I'm sitting here perfectly calm, almost detached. I'm not really upset, even, about the loss––I don't get upset for long. At first, yeah, I was really getting emotional, but my mind takes over and it quickly abates, leaving me in a position to discern where we are and...

    Tonight at Mizzery

    I know it's possible I'll eat this tomorrow when I post my recap, but if so, I will do so happily, as I am not one who has much of a problem with admitting when I was wrong. HOWEVER. I sense a lot of jitters and neck-craning around Husker Nation. Maybe not just the boards, but people appear a...

    Iowa State Recap

    I was able to attend this game, the first time I've been in Memorial Stadium for a long time. It was a fun game to watch, and there was plenty of excitment. My particular portion of the stadium was pretty quiet (except for me and a few other guys), but it was a blast anyway. Now, on to the...

    The Age is Over

    At this point in the season it is very difficult to see anything positive on the horizon. I can honestly say that never in my wildest dreams did I expect the season would turn this ugly this quickly. Yes, I figured perhaps a trap game or two would emerge, perhaps late in the season, but to see...

    Don't Look Now But...

    Third quarter, Miama vs. A&M. Aggies getting absolutely sh#t-stomped. Can't defend the pass, can't defend the run. Offense chocked up all day, no progress. I was really worried about that game, and still am a bit, but apparently they don't have much defense and are easily fooled by a little PA.

    USC Recap

    I usually don't like to write these in the heat of the moment. I know the game's not even over, but I need something to do while I sit here feeling the agony creep in. I love the Huskers, and it hurts like hell to watch them be humiliated by a cocky, undeserving bunch of entitled pricks, but...

    Big XII North Representing!

    I know it's a little late for the Clones to get their honor back after losing to Northern Iowa, but they just won in a heartbreaker against the Hawkeyes (my school, lol). I'm not a Hawk fan by any stretch, so it's good to see the North winning against rivals. :bonez And USC must be razed to...

    Hypothetical Scenario

    Okay, this is not meant to be a prediction, but I was just sitting here and the thought occured to me, so I'll open it up for discussion. ––– Saturday, Sept. 15: The night settles in with a chill in the air. Fall is here. The Trojans and the Huskers shake hands, exchange complimentary words...

    It's time Guys

    Let this bad boy pump you up. From Husker Dan (check Huskerpedia.com) Damn straight! Our linebackers, especially, I want to see some passion. Scratch that. Not some. I want our LBs to look like this: "BOOOTAAAAAY!!!! I'M COOOMIIIIN!!!" We need to shake this guy, make him cry. For one...

    The Fall of Troy

    The USC Trojans, named so for the ancient people on the coast of the Agean, carry much in common with the nation whose name they share. They were stout, hearty, led by magnificent heroes, and at the height of victory were torn down by arrogance and stupidity. Little did the king know when he...

    Unrelated ESPN Complaint

    Is it just me noticing this, or does ESPN (Trojan Central) have a non-stop barrage of sh#t all over the screen when you're trying to watch the game? They've got peple introducing stuff, interviews off the field, graphics, ill-time replays, etc, etc, etc... There were several times, especially...

    Survival of the Fittest

    Believe it or not I am a pure-blooded Nebraskan who, after a performance like that, has a hand which twitches towards the "hang the coach" button on the recliner. However, being more than just primevil instinct, I do like to sit down and take a look at the game and actually THINK about why I'd...

    Steinkuhler is "day-to-day"

    Steinkuhler is "day-to-day" Husker coach Bill Callahan said Monday during the Big 12 Coaches Teleconference that sophomore defensive tackle Ty Steinkuhler is "day-to-day." He would not expand on that. "Like I said, he's day-to-day," Callahan said when asked if it might take him out of the Wake...

    Some USC Gossip

    Well, from what I hear the USC game was nothing to be dazzled with. The number 1 team (defense, especially) in the nation didn't have a great amount of luck with the run, giving up 98 total yards (253 overall vs. the Big Red's 185 surrendered). I know, not a huge number, but this was a nobody...

    My Take on Today's Woodshed Victory

    Hey guys, what a game, huh? Best offensive production of the Callahan era. Let's just hope it carries into next week, then we'll have a tremendous reason to raise a lot of eyebrows. 1) Keller: Good game, got into his groove. I think the game strategy was not geared to highlight him, though, so...

    ABC Coverage Map now up: Nevada on TV

    Hey all, I'm going to be living in Iowa City by next Saturday and I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find out if the game will be on over there. The info I've got is that it's and ABC regional telecast, but I don't know if they'd be showing a Big 10 game over in those waters. I might...

    Joe Ganz Speaks Briefly

    From the Lincoln Journal Star: Joe Ganz fielded questions Tuesday, a day after Sam Keller was given the nod over him for the starting quarterback spot. Here are a couple of his quotes: "For the first hour (after the news), it was really tough because I had put so much into it these last three...

    Local Bloviation

    Here in my home state there's a weekly show that runs during football season which I like to watch for it's length and general good, solid coverage (with brief commercial breaks) of college football. It's called Cy-Hawk Talk: State of the Nations. This week the guys, who are both talented...

    Back in the Day...

    Hey everyone, Since I'm a fairly new son of Husker nation, I was hoping maybe some of you could tell me a thing or two about a certain subject. Last season was the first season I truly became passionate about college football. I watched everything I could (particularly the Iowa/ISU games as...
