I know some of your dyed-in-the-wool fans are screaming at me for calling the Missouri game a rivalry game—that has to be reserved for Oklahoma—but let’s look at some cold hard facts for a couple of minutes before you call me crazy. For one, over the past nine games of this ...Published on: 29th September, 2009
As I pointed out last week, the best of the worst are starting to really show themselves as there was only one new arrival to the bottom five for this week’s poll. I don’t want to delay you any longer with my excess dribble, so here are your bottom feeders ...Published on: 21st September, 2009
Hello, you sick, can’t-take-your-eyes-off-the-train-wreck, got-to-watch-the-gore college football fans. We are now entering the point of the season where teams start to finish their “cupcake” portion of their schedule, and the truly horrible teams, like cream, rise to the top.

There were the Texas and USC games in 2006, USC again in '07, and then Virginia Tech last season in Lincoln, all with the same result—the “Nebraska not ready for primetime players.” The last time the Huskers beat a ...Published on: 14th September, 2009
Welcome back to my rankings for Week Two, and I do mean “rank”. Things weren’t quite so volatile this week as only two of my bottom dwellers (Washington and San Diego State) got into the win column. Because of that we have two new worthy successors to replace them. The team’s ...Published on: 10th September, 2009
Well it sure is a good thing that I don’t do this for a living, as four of my bottom five “cellar dwellers” won during the opening week of action. It was so bad, that my number one team, Washington gave 11th-ranked LSU a run for its money. So that being ...Published on: 31st August, 2009
It happens about this time every year. Crispness fills the air with that first cold front across the plains, the 24 fall practices have come to a close, and game planning is now upon us. Are you ready for HUSKER FOOTBALL?!! This is the second year of the “Bo era,” and ...Published on: 26th August, 2009
According to offensive coordinator/quarterback coach Shawn Watson, true freshman Cody Green from Dayton Texas has surged ahead of Latravis Washington in the battle for the backup quarterback behind Zac Lee. "He's done a great job. He's really catching on," Watson said. "I'm really pleased with where he is at. Latravis is ...Published on: 24th August, 2009
Greetings Husker Nation. Well, what a wild week we just finished, wasn’t it? Practice began pretty much as normal on Monday, Aug. 17, but by Friday the 21st, speculation arose that something was going on. Junior running back Quentin Castille had been held out of practice since Wednesday the 19th but ...
