  • About to board my plane for Tokyo. I won't have to hear about the election for 15 days.

    Hopefully we are still the United States when you get back.

    You might get to hear about it, but in in a more civil and intelligent kind of way...

    Think about it...the last thirty three Husker coaches (including Riley) will all NOT get calls from "big time" schools this off-season...sort of amazing.

    if T.O. issued a statement that he was interested in coaching again i bet he would get some calls.

    Yes, it's Joey Jeremiah

    The truffle fry flavored potato chips taste good, but are the worst smelling food I've ever encountered.

    Bacon says "Hello".

    Can anyone explain cricket to me, or even how to read the scores?

    No. Nobody understands it or can explain it. It's not even a real thing.

    The first number is how many outs there are, the second number is the score. So 5/120 (read as "5 for 120") means 5 men are out and 120 runs have scored. To make it more confusing, some countries (England I think) reads it backwards, i.e. 120/5, or 120 for 5. An over is just six balls thrown. Think of it as six pitches. World Cup cricket is a one day match, which is 50 overs for each side, or 300 balls. You hit until you make an out. If you get 10 guys out before you get to 300 balls...

    Then you switch sides, like baseball. I never cared much for the sport when I lived in Melbourne, but when it was on it was literally the only thing anybody talked about. I learned some basic rules so I didn't look clueless.

    HCMR says we're at 85 scholarships. If I'm understanding what he said.

    I was thinking additional departures or transfers that just haven't been reported yet. Some people have said things like Cross or Cotton or Finnin, but I don't know if there's anything there more than speculation.

    If *you're* stumped, though, Mav, I just don't know!

    Saw someone else mention another possibility: a walk-on who got a scholarship last year no longer has one.

    Bracket sprawl is real. 16 team playoff within twenty years. Lock it up.

    I hope they leave it at four. Optimal size football bracket, IMHO.

    Wouldn't surprise me if 16 happens sooner rather than later.

    Four won't last long. The Big XII is already raising hell behind closed doors that their champ wasn't included. Next year it'll be the ACC, the PAC-12 or the Big Ten raising hell.

    There's too many eyeballs on TVs, meaning too much money involved, for there to be only four teams with five power conferences.
