    I imagine 11 green is fine. Maybe the back of the green got nicked, but that’d be it. Along with Rae’s creek overflowing, it looks like the little tributary that runs along 13 overflowed and found its way back just pass the Hogan bridge. 11 green is still a ways east of that. Either way, a...

    Nae wind, nae golf. Hopefully it blows a bit over the weekend. And Portrush is maybe the most aerial of the rota courses. Off the tee is very interesting, but approach shots aren’t linksy. All carry. Very little ground game. The greens are much more undulating, so there are some fun recoveries...

    the ground game is a lot more effective at Ballyneal. Turf is leaner and bouncier and more of the greens are built to accept a running approach i.e., it plays more like a links, which I prefer. Enjoy your time out there!

    POLL 48 days until kickoff - Nebraska's Top 25 Player Rankings - #3 - Jacory Barney v. Ceyair Wright

    By a landslide, too. The collective intelligence of this group is troubling.

    POLL 48 days until kickoff - Nebraska's Top 25 Player Rankings - #3 - Jacory Barney v. Ceyair Wright

    I like Barney. Think he brings an attitude we haven’t had in awhile. But Barney is not 3rd best people. I’m not sure he cracks top 5 on offense. I’d put Raiola, Key, EJ, Spindler, and Evans over him.

    POLL How many touchdowns will DR15 throw this year?

    Dylan is going to break the yards mark pretty easily. Probably in year 3 if he doesn’t get hurt or transfer. Touchdowns is going to be tougher than it sounds. Needs 55 to break it. 18.3TD/yr for the next 3 years. As I pointed out above, 20+ passing TD seasons don’t happen very often in the...

    POLL How many touchdowns will DR15 throw this year?

    TLDR: 8 wins is the floor if Raiola throws for 20+ TDS. 20 or more passing TDs is the goal. In the past 3 years only 13 B10 QBs have thrown for 20+ in a season. Only 3 have thrown for 30+. Lowest amount of wins for a team whose QB threw for 20+ TDs was 8. Maryland in 2023 and Purdue in 2022...

    Any other whacked out 9-holers you guys know of, I’m all ears.

    Agree to disagree on best 9-holer in the state, but I liked Kirkmans. 3-6 was a good stretch. I think it was 5 (the long par 3) that was the standout for me.

    No. 2 is rough and there’s rarely anyway around it. No. 10 taking so long is interesting. 9-16 is a bear, which slows things down, but 5.5 hours is inexcusable. I feel like 3.5 hours is reasonable for anyone, anywhere. And I’ve been to some clubs in England and Scotland (Prestwick and Rye)...

    Football Depth Chart projections

    I think Nelson screwed up his redshirt. Think the staff would’ve preferred he kept it, but sounded like Nelson wanted to play.
