I've been reading and resisting the urge to join in, partially because I've been way too pissed, and partially because I don't want to come across as a "whining loser", but thanks, Bucks fans (most of you) for recognizing the shaft job we got Saturday night. I'm happier and happier with each...

You've made that abundantly clear, thanks! :wink2: I tried to enlighten you - try to pay attention this time, ok? First of all, there's no "probationary status" except for in your postings. Nowhere else is anything referred to with that terminology. Secondly, it has exactly zero to do with...

s Psssttt... if you're trying to cover up your big grammar gaffe by implying some kind of "academic probationary status" on Nebraska's joining, you're way off base. The academic side of things is the CIC membership, vs. the BigTen membership. Any "probationary" status (which I couldn't find...

It makes you look pretty bad, bringing up the tired, decades-old "Nowledge" putdown in the same message where you write "Gotta to take..." :wink2: Just sayin'... :neb2: :neb: EDIT: Not only that, but I note that after saying that you "gotta to take", you didn't really put a bet on the...

So, let me see if I understand your argument. The option QB's, who are also known generically as "dual-threat" QB's because they can pass AND run, are "one dimensional?" Sorry, but that logic is escaping me for some reason! :wink2:

Fixed it for ya! :wink2: :neb: (How do you do "strikethru" here - I know I've seen it done?)

I tend to agree with you - I WANT to agree with you. But the only yardstick we have currently is when they played Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl - and managed to win. Do I think they deserve to be in the NC race with the schedule they play? Hell no! But that schedule makes it very difficult to...

Not arguing whether it SHOULD be this way or not, but it seems his point is valid that OSU doesn't have much chance to jump Nebraska, assuming Nebraska wins out and wins the B12 CCG. Last week OSU was 4 spots under Nebraska - this week they're still one spot under, even with Nebraska's close...

A tip sheet I'm familiar with has this game as their pick of the week to bet on. Every single team Okie Lite has played so far this season has a pass defense ranked #100 or lower, and their QB has still thrown multiple interceptions in 4 of the 6 games. Nebraska's pass defense is ranked #1...

Amazing how posting stupid rants can so quickly come back to bite you in the butt, when your own team essentially does the same thing just a few hours later. I don't see you posting that Ohio State = frauds after their loss. My wife and I suffered through both of those games on Saturday...

My wife and I went to the Husker watch party and sat through that miserable game, and then left and went to the Bucks watch party here, only to sit through a second miserable game. Terrible football day, to be sure. I swore off of it yesterday, and with the Dallas Cowboys making yet another...

Good thoughts. I like your ideas, makes a lot of sense. Yep, right now there's no downside for the agents, only for the impressionable young kids and their college programs. Put some serious downside risk in it for the agents, that would go a LONG ways.

If Tex-ass hadn't totally embarrassed themselves against UCLA, they'd be in Lincoln on Saturday. Oh well, since they're not in Lincoln, glad they'll be in Madison. I'll bet right now that they'll be in Lincoln next fall when the Buckeyes come to town. Anyone willing to take that bet...

OK, but have they ever dropped after a win against a conference team? Its far from certain, there's a lot of football left to play, we have to both take care of business and run the table and even then it might not happen - but the chances improved this weekend for my dream season - Nebraska...

BB73 - 90 million on the Purple Pussies last Thursday? Really? Fer shame, fer shame! :D :neb::neb2:

Yep, I don't think TV money comes anywhere close to making up for the loss of (sellout) ticket revenue for the extra home game because you don't have to offer EMU a home/away.

Wow, I thought Houston had it bad! Its a bad year to be a minor conference team in Texas, it appears.

Yep. Huskers are in the 97th percentile for rushing so far this season. And, word is, that Martinez CAN throw reasonably well, its just not been really needed that much, just enough to keep the defense honest. He was 7 of 11 passing against Washington. May be wishful thinking on my part, but...

Yep, I tend to agree. I'd like to think that IF we can run the table that an undefeated Nebraska with wins over Texas and Oklahoma (in the CCG) would jump over Boise and TCU. But there's no way we'll jump an undefeated SEC team, so Florida or someone else has to step up and beat 'Bama. If...
