Hello from LA

I think this article represents Nebraska well. No loud trash talking players (see: Miami) no one getting arrested (Hello Ohio St.) No bragging, rude fans (Michigan st.....?)

Basically the author ran all the numbers, and showed the teams that get no respect at the beggining of the season, by the "experts" and then ended up being ranked highly at the end of the season.

28. Nebraska – Of those programs that have been preseason ranked in at least 30 of the last 35 years, none has been more reliable and consistent than Nebraska. Considering that there’s always been far more territory in the rankings background than foreground, the Huskers’ composite score is alarmingly good. The numbers paint a clear picture of sustained dominance. Nebraska has been ranked at the beginning of the year 32 times since 1971, yet finished just one of those seasons—2002—unranked. And of the 29 times the Huskers started in the Top 10, they stayed there until January 23 times.

*Composite Score: -3.25

If anyone is interested in the whole article, it's here--

overrated

And Nope, USC was not in there. I have to admit USC gets alot of respect from the media. Sometimes too much...... :sarcasm

This is going to be a fun year for college football. No one is clearly above the rest and the one that takes care of the rock and gets a few breaks will end up with a good shot at the trophy. We can only hope at this point. The only thing for sure is it starts for us on 9-02-06. I can't frickin wait.

Hey gin! No worries, anyone from the opposing team who wants to post on your board has to be held under suspicion...I am sure on our USC site if some ND fan came on they would get some strange looks. :thumbs

Yep, also I am happy to get on my soapbox about the Beatles...hehe

This is really going to be a great year. I was at my buddies today, we went in on an HDTV and wireless surround sound system for the college football season this year.

Everyone has their holes...ND has no defense, Ohio St. lost their back 7, Penn St. lost their entire O-line, QB and RB and are switching from a read option to a Pro drop back attack, USC has no experience, Oklahoma just lost Rhett Bomar..etc..

I hope Nebraska can fix their weakness, which is lack of a running game. That's about it...and they have Marlon Lucky...from California. I remember watching the recruiting battle for him, and wished he would of gone to USC. That guy is great...get him going and Big red will have all the bases covered.

And don't ya hate Notre Dame and Oklahoma :cheers ? hahaha

 
One thing I think alot of Husker fans don't know is that Dana X Bible coached at Lincoln in the early 1930's. He was one of the founders of modern american college football.

Also, the player with the coolest name ever in football played at Nebraska...I.M.Hipp :) ))

I remember him when I was younger. :box

all husker team
