I was wishing in the wee hours in the immediate aftermath of the game that we'd have had someone step up on D to stop that last drive. To paraphrase the lyrics of Simon & Garfunkel's Mrs Robinson: "Where have you gone, Malcolm Hartzog?? But I agree with your point and said the same thing last...

If you bet on Nebraska to cover the spread this season, you'd have won every game thus far. FWIW, Nebraska will be favored in each of its next three games.

Note to everybody here: It was expected to be tough, remember? If you go back and review all the board's takes following last year's Penn State game until this season started, you'd swear there was No Chance in Hell for the Huskers in 2026. You'd find scores of posts opining there was no way...

ANOTHER HEARTBREAKER. I really thought we had this one – we were just one play away from getting it done. So damn close against both Indiana and Oregon. The defense played tough but we needed a Colandrea-style difference maker on defense down the stretch and didn’t get one. This was a very...

When H99 does return, seeing this thread will tell her the impact she has on people here. One thing that does bother me about anonymous message boards like this one is that if something dire happens (hospitalization or worse), there is no way we know. Case in point, I wished MRJFB a happy...

For the record, calling her 'Bo Pelini' was a long-standing joke between us. She used to play EA Sports CFB and encouraged me to watch her games online, which I did. Whenever she had a tough game, she'd rant about how crappy the software was and I'd tease her with the Bo tag. I think we all...

IMO, THAT decision was absolutely critical to developing the kind of board BHF has now. When Frost became the HC at UCF, I joined a UCF board that had its own version of "the Third Rail". While I don't mind talking current events, today's toxic environment makes it impossible to engage in any...

Call me a Super-Psychic, I'm going on record as predicting Raiola will play for this THIRD different college team next year.

DAMN STRAIGHT! Tonight we're going into the 'Lion's Den' against an angry Oregon team with the largest NIL payroll in the country. All I've been thinking about this week is this could be last year's Penn State game all over again. But on the other hand, this team has had to wait around all...

FWIW, that game feels awfully familiar. Maybe, just maybe, we're better than a lot of folks think we are right now.

24 is ridiculous. But it will make ESPN a lot of money for the next few years.

In my humble opinion, this is the NCAA's last-ditch effort to keep football in the fold. It ain't gonna work. Come 2030, the B1G and the SEC will be leaving the NCAA and forming their own league. I suspect THAT will turn this new 24-team playoff in the college basketball's version of the old NIT.

"Geez, THANKS, Uenth!" Seriously, it's not my fault. We give each other crap all the time.

Given his performance coming off the bench against USC compared to starting against UCLA, Lanning might be thinking -- given who the Ducks are playing -- that Raiola off-the-bench is his best option.

Our weekly Sunday Morning Thoughts thread will likely start with a halftime update. :)

Was she in the Shoutbox last Saturday?

Having grown up with the Blueblood Huskers being equivalent to today's Ohio State and Alabama, I've had to eat A LOT of humble pie the last 25 years. I was convinced (still am) that you can't keep a Blueblood down forever but watched as the Nebraska Braintrust kept making mistake after mistake...

I got a chuckle out of PD's comment in another thread but looking at the new pricing map, it's very appropriate to put here: It sure looks like the University's definition of an "Elite" fan in 2027 involves how much money you're willing to fork over for tickets. I guess it's a sign of the...

After wasting ten minutes of my time trying to get AI to understand my question, I ask the AI 'attendant' to transfer me to a real person and am told it cannot complete my request.

I don't want to hijack your thread, Uenth, but you've hit on one of my hot buttons: Customer Service (or should I say, TOTAL lack of any.) FWIW, I have always believed that high quality customer service is The Best Advertising a company, organization, or institution could ever have. Yet I've...
