    Parking Lot #20

    You'd think that I'd been around enough Husker games to know this by now..... Going to the Southern Miss game next week and have a Parking pass for lot #20. Is that for parking only? Or is do they allow sufficient space to set-up a shelter and grills, like the spots near the bridge? Thanks...

    Do you have a specialty plate?

    So, i applied for and received approval for a specialty plate...mostly because I think that the new Nebraska plates are dorky. Anyway, I'm a huge Husker fan but still have loyalty to my native state - Minnesota. My license plate reads "MN GO4S". I was thinking that a bunch of posters on this...

    Maurice Purify arrested

    I apologize if this has been already posted. Seems like a minor infraction, though...some scuffle at a night club.

    The Bucks take McCoy over Suh?

    I just don't understand why so many of the NFL mock drafts have the Buccaneers taking McCoy over Suh if both are available when it is time for their team to draft. I totally understand the reasons as to why many draft boards have the Lions taking Bradford #1 and the Rams taking Okung #2, but I...

    T-shirt ideas of 300th sellout game

    A group of my friends and I are going to the 300th sellout game in a few weeks. We have a friendly competition for coming up with the best T-shirt for the game. I know the members of Huskerboard are a creative bunch and thought that I would elicit some ideas from y'all to help me come up with...

    Freeman to Bucs??

    Okay, one day i'll have to put my dislike for Josh Freeman at rest...I'm a bit biased on this subject. But, wasn't anyone else surprised that the Bucs moved up to grab Freeman. I mean, I've seen Freeman against our Defenses over the past few years. He's not good under pressure. He's soft...

    Talent level

    I noticed that some of the messages this past week have attributed the disappointing showing with SJSU to the talent level of the team. There have been suggestions that the "cupboard" was bare when BC departed and Bo took over. Comparisions have been made to BC taking the helm after Solich was...

    Lucky is an average back

    I have never been on the Lucky bandwagon. He hasn't demonstrated, to me, that he is worthy of being the #1 back in this offense. He's great in the open field or when there is a huge hole (as are many other collegiate backs that didn't receive the hype that he did). After the Wake Forest game...

    "....walks into a bar" jokes

    My two favorite "bar" jokes are... A priest, rabbi and evangelical minister walk into a bar and the bartender says "hey, is this some sort of joke!" or this one A grasshopper walks into a bar and the bartender says "hey, we got a drink named after you". And the grasshopper replies "really...

    Cally's strategy for the USC game

    Last year, it appeared that BC didn't have a lot of confidence in his team as it faced USC. The game plan was to run the ball and try to shorten the game by taking time off the clock. I think that he stuck with the running game to reduce the chances of turn-overs that accrue through a passing...

    Keller

    One thing that caught my attention during the WF game was the throwing motion of Keller. It seems that he always threw off his back leg and, in general, his motion looked awkward. Wondering if anyone else observed the same. In both games, he had thrown behind receivers on numerous occasions...

    game prediction

    Last year, we Huskerboard posters were able to predict the score, passing yardage and rushing yardage for each game. I didn't know if the mods are doing that this year as well. Anyway, here's my prediction Nebraska - 41 Nevada - 13 Rushing yards - 140 Passing yards - 290 Total yards - 430...

    Grade Your Team's Draft

    I am a Viking fan. But, I have been so frustrated with their drafts and personnel decisions over the last five years that I have thought about abandoning ship and finding a different team. However, for once, I thought the ViQueens drafted well....not great....but solid nevertheless. Most of...

    Twins new balllpark revealed

    Finally, it is near reality. The Twins will have a new ballpark...outdoors. Looks wonderful. They even have a place for people without a ticket to watch batting practice. I'll definitely take a special trip to Minnesota once it is built just to watch the team play there.

    How would you grade the recruiting class?

    I'd give it an A minus - the minus is for the last minute defections of Ross and Lewis. I just felt that we solidified so many of our "weakest" positions - DB and DL. Even got a some decent OL recruits at the end. Niles paired up with Purify...wow....what a tandem. You also have to love the...
