Help a Husker out

Walk-on
Help. I am a transplanted Husker living in North Carolina. I go ona UNC message board there. I am having a bit of a time with my fellow posters, and I admit I amn not up on the fine details of NE trivia. For one: how many 1000 yard backs has NE had????

Here is a link to the thread I am being batted around on. Any insightful comments I might use???

your link doesn't work (I have to login to view)...but look here:

http://huskerpedia.com/records/2004/2004records.pdf

looks like through 2004 there were 27...three of those were QBs (they should count as backs ;) )

Really, all you need to do is show them the 801-231-40 stat we have going and the case should be closed in any arguement. And if that doesn't work, show them the number of national championship trophies we have compared to theirs. And if THAT doesn't work...ask them how many Heisman's they have too.

should keep you going for awhile.

:)

oh, and by the way:

Thanks.

Yeah, I saw when I tried to follow my link from here that I came to a log in page. If you click on the index link in the left corner above the login I think that you can sign in as a guest - read only. If you get there its the thread on "Best football Conference" Their choices: ACC, SEC, Big 11....

 
Hey they have 3 of our old QB's in that state. And of course that human dynamo JD. Why wouldn't they question us?

 
How the hell do I get in there to read stuff? It keeps making me register, but I don't want to.

 
Ok I am going to admit that I am not the best Husker fan to be in there arguing. I have been watching Husker football since I was 3 years old and at my uncle's knee. I remember so many games from childhood on. I have been, however, a bit stretched out here as the games are not broadcast. I found a Husker group and began joining them at a local bar...

All that said, I have been terrible at keeping any stats, records, or general comparison info in my head. My four brothers could do it - and I have been on the line to them too. I remember the games. I would be much better at discussing plays, or the actual playing.

So I am afraid I have had a hard time of it.

I would invite any of you who felt so inclined: boardofthebored.com

Here are a few excerpts of the thread:

"Big XII is the most overrated conference of all times. Two good teams and a load of crap."

"I'll give NYC the fact that Nebraska is more known for football than UNC is. I think she is crazy if she thinks Nebraska is one of only 3 great football schools. I would think you would have to throw Texas, USC (not the chickens), and Oklahoma in the mix too. If you want to look at dominance in the past 25 years, then you have to look toward the south and mainly the state of Florida."

"In the past, the SEC was the best conference, but now the ACC has taken over, which is what the question was asking. With the ACC expansion, the ACC is clearly the superior conference."

Ah well....

 
These people don't sound to bright to be taken on a husker fan. Maybe a few of them could come on here and take a few of us on!!! ;)
