Money is a huge factor, but I look at teams that beat us regularly like Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin (a team that appears to be coming out of their doldrums from the past several years), you could even add Illinois to that group. The common factor for those teams is that they don’t have the NIL...

Ingredients for a Krazy Night of Husker Football: * Halloween, check * Night game, check * Blackout, check * Sold out stadium, check * Event tailored for rowdy students, and adults, check * Outrageous costumes make for great TV viewing, see photo below, check

Today while watching Iowa-Minny game, there were a number of tush-push plays. Minny tried it on their own 1/2 ft line on a 2nd and 11 play. I think they got pushed back closer to their goal line. Later in the game Minny was trying to score on Iowa 1 ft line using the “push”. It failed...

SEC BUSINESS MODEL: * “If you ain’t lying, you ain’t trying.” * “It’s not called stealing, it’s called wheeling.”

Ruhle indicates that there are SEC teams trying to interfere with AC. QBs that can run and pass are now the gold standard in college football. Everyone wants one. Only if you have an elite OL can you win consistently with a drop back passer. With the Wild West of NIL money, combined with...

Thanks Doc again for your early morning presser. Normally I respond within minutes. Wife and I were visiting G-Kids and family in Elm Grove, Wisconsin, so this is the first time I read this post. My thoughts: * Why didn’t we blitz DR? Some disguised blitzes that were not shown earlier could...

Huskers. 29 Daffy Ducks. 25 TO. 399

Interesting post from Oregon board. This is something we all knew about DR and his predictability. Now you hear grumblings from the Duck pond. Interesting they also say what we have been saying for years about more use of TE and using shotgun on short yardage situations. QBs like DR will...

It was the Bob Father’s first year at Nebraska, 1962. That fall we got a tractor radio for our International Super M tractor. As a young grade school boy the only football that I was aware of was our local HS football team. That tractor radio changed my world, my life when I started listening...

I remember that play, told the wife that would have been a huge gain, especially because he was so wide open and close to AC to be easily seen.

Not my creation, but courtesy of AI:

Doc, you summed up most of our thoughts. My takes: * The game hinged on missed opportunities * The stats were stunning, we had an obscene advantage in time of possession, about 40 minutes to 20 for Indiana. Another obscene advantage was 83 plays run by us compared to only 44 plays by...

Compare the rushing average/game: Hoosiers 253, Huskers 231. That doesn’t tell the whole story. Many of our yds come from our QB. Back our QB numbers out, and those combined yds by our RB’s are cut drastically. They have two legitimate 100 yd rushers, their QB doesn’t run. They have the...

You do that Doc, it will probably be your last anniversary.

I’ll complete the saying: Doesn’t have a pot to P1$$ in, nor a window to throw it out. Reminds me of those troughs in Colorado Folsom Field. At least the ones at Memorial Stadium are porcelain, the ones at Colorado, similar to photo were made of galvanized metal. Those troughs had that...

Just keeping it real Again. We have been conditioned for so long on the mediocrity of our program that here we are grousing about votes outside the top 25. Just focus on the next play, the next game, the next day of practice, and those votes will appear. GBR

During the Riley (Dark Ages) we went to Bloomington, and it was the first time we ever played Indiana as a Big Ten member. We think that was one of our best road trips ever. The campus was beautiful, kind of what you would see in a movie. You are right, the place really has a small town feel...

Great points Doc. Some of my takes: * Championship teams have discipline. You can complain about poor calls, but disciplined teams don’t have false starts, offsides, illegal blocks, penalties away from the actual play, personnel fouls, taunts, etc. Refs generally do their job, just don’t...

Huskers 30 Terps. 21 TO 396

Jeopardy, I’m so sorry. It is such a heartache when we start to realize that our furr babies are slowing down, and it is just a matter of time before it is time. They love us unconditionally even to the end when they are in pain and suffering, they still manage a weak wag of the tail or a lick...
