    Where were you when Nebraska beat Miami to win the National Championship?

    I was 13 at my parents house in upstate CT. We were transplants but we had converted some close friends into die hard fans. I remember his dad and his best friend (since moving) jumping up and down on the couch like they were kids. (My brother and I were jumping on the couch too). I’ll never...

    Nebraska - Good offense & Good defense

    Incredible turnaround on ST. We were in the 100s in ST Eff at start of season.

    Will TJ Lateef have 200 yds (or more) total offense vs UCLA?

    I’m basing the 200 yds less on TJ and more on Nyzaiah, Key, and Emmett getting heavy YAC. And I think we may see Barney re-emerge here.

    Raiola - Fibula

    My feeling is that it comes from seeing a mobile QB that can actually throw a good ball. We’ve tended to have one or the other with every QB since…. ??? I agree with your premise, but think that’s what we’re seeing from the base with the excitement around Lateef.

    0-29

    I agree with this take, but I also think it’s part of the game now and you’ve gotta take the path and the path toward long term success largely still takes time. There are exceptions. But I’m still liking the overall direction even though I am plenty unhappy with various details and think...

    It’s wild to have experienced a time when the Mets were one of the premier bandwagon teams to follow. The Doc & Daryl days were fun to watch in many ways lol. That was when sluggers didn’t look like the Incredible Hulk either.

    Rumor OFFICIAL USC @ Nebraska Score Prediction Thread

    Interesting that some see this one as turning out worse than the 2007 game did…

    2 points I'd like to make after 7 games.

    I refuse to believe that we just miss on OL talent to this level. At some point that narrative doesn’t hold water and I think we are long past it. This is coaching and development on the OL.

    Some thoughts on the Maryland game.

    Agree on the Haarberg piece. I’d rather see us give TJ a designed package.

    And so it begins...(tracking Coach Prime decommits/transfers)

    They also probably don’t realize that Cockeye State lost to Cincy who will likely be ranked next week as well.

    POLL Your take on 8-4, please

    Nico’s camp looks worse and worse by the day. Almost feel for the kid for being guided so horribly.

    Week 4 v Michigan - Saturday, September 20: Game Notes, Depth Chart, Etc

    Pretty sure Husker Hounds usually has a ton of them.

    More or less confident in team after Cincinnati?

    I like a test like this and then take the next two lower tier competition games to adjust based on last night versus beating two lower tier teams and then losing this game if it was our third game because we didn’t see what needed to be fixed.
