In the NFL. Vokolek- Ravens, Austin Allen - Packers, Farniok-cowboys to name a few.
Bootle and Lamar Jackson - chiefs

Hopefully many will stick with practice squad.

I still can’t believe Nebraska packed in 92K people to watch a volleyball match. My reaction from last night. Hit the link.

Trying something fun to kick off the Rhule Era tonight!

The Matt Rhule era at Nebraska kicks off Thursday night at Minnesota. Rivals.com ClintCosgrove, Greg Smith and Corey Gibson will be sharing their analysis and remembering some of the game's biggest stars as high school prospects during the game, which begins at 7p.m. CT.

The record is broken. Hit the link.

Gotta admit haven’t watched much TV lately.. didn’t realize I wouldn’t be able to watch the game until now.
Out of town working and hotel has direct TV any recommendations?

Thought I’d go out and walk around before we get busy this afternoon. Took some pics to show everyone.

First off, I wanted to get a coffee. So I found a really cool place called Bordertown Coffee. You’d walk right by the place if you didn’t know it was there. It’s tucked inside what looks to me like a really old building. But once you’re inside, it’s very cool. Excellent vibe.

Bold Predictions is back! Our staff’s first edition of the season ahead of Minnesota.

August 31
1886 - An earthquake with an estimated magnitude of 7.3 devastated Charleston, South Carolina, killing at least 60 people, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

1994 - Russia officially ended its military presence in the former East Germany and the Baltic states.

1996 - Three adults and four children drowned when their vehicle rolled into John D. Long Lake in Union, South Carolina; they had gone to see a monument to the sons of Susan Smith, who had drowned the two boys in Oct. 1994.

1997 - Princess Diana and her companion, Dodi al-Fayed, were killed in a car accident in Paris.

2005 - New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin reported “a significant number of dead bodies in the water” following Hurricane Katrina; Nagin ordered virtually the entire police force to abandon search-and-rescue efforts and to instead stop increasingly hostile thieves.

2010 - President Barack Obama ended the U.S. combat mission in Iraq, declaring no victory after seven years of bloodshed and telling those divided over the war in his country and around the world: “It is time to turn the page.”

2019 - A gunman carried out a shooting rampage that stretched ten miles between the Texas communities of Midland and Odessa, leaving seven people dead before police killed the gunman outside a movie theater in Odessa.

2020 - At a rally in Pittsburgh, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden resoundingly condemned violent protesters and called for their prosecution; he accused President Donald Trump of causing the divisions that had ignited the violence. Trump reiterated that he blamed radical troublemakers who he said were stirred up and backed by Biden.

Where are Husker fans meeting up? Never been on campus up there.

is Red Husker shirt ok or is that what Row Boaters are wearing?

LFG. GBR.

Here's the TV, streaming and radio info for Nebraska-Minnesota, featuring some additional notes about today's matchup, the all-time series and recent history between the two programs, plus a rundown of other notable games in Week 1 – including the slate for the Huskers' other 11 upcoming opponents this season.

But this is a great site for every college football game being played, and who’s broadcasting it.

I keep it on the desktop of all my devices.

I really like them. Where’s the best place (besides der’s) to grab one?

Can someone breakdown this defense’s philosophy for me?
And if it’s a good fit in the B1G?

That you were really excited to see come to NU and nothing ever came off it on the field. I'll go first. JR Edwards (mid-late 90's) had NFL talent coming out of Lincoln Southeast. Failing drug tests and getting in trouble was his downfall. Believe he finished his career as a WR3 at UNK. Mo Washington is another one that could have been great. If his head is on straight Frost may have made a bowl game at least once.

Really interested to hear some of you older guys (no offense!) takes on guys from the 70's and 80's

I don’t listen to sports radio as much as I used to. I know Damon left 1620 then did Coffee and Cream with new guy. Wanted to listen to game stuff and couldn’t find those podcasts…..then The Damon Benning show popped up.

What is going on? What’s with all the change ?

Good morning husker fans.

Does anyone know the team Hotel in Minnesota this week. My 17-year-old and I are heading up tomorrow morning and looking for some things to do prior to the game.

Thank you for the help.

Not sure if others felt the same, but there is a different feeling watching a Nebraska Team that you know is going to beat the ever-loving crap out of their opponent walk through the tunnel with Sirius blaring…. and it’s an awesome feeling.

Hope Rhule can get us back…

GBR!

How long can you go without eating? I'm approaching 48 hours right now (5:30 pm), day two is easier than day one.

does anyone else here go days without eating sometimes?

Alright dudes, 24Ours to kickoff. LFG. GBR

For those keeping track at home (everyone) this last weekend was supposed to be when Grant Brix announced his commitment. He'd stated previously that he wanted to make an announcement before the season started. His season started on Friday night and no announcement came this weekend.

Brix let me know that he needs more time to think about his decision.

His final choices are Nebraska, Oklahoma, Kansas State and Alabama. The leading theory right now is that this is a Nebraska versus Oklahoma battle. Sources have indicated to me that the Alabama offer is very committable but Brix and his family would prefer he stay in the Midwest. Brix has built a strong relationship with Donovan Raiola and Matt Rhule so the Huskers are hoping that carries them over the edge.

Brix is the clear number one target remaining and the staff is working hard to close the deal. He just needs more time.

Jealous! Would have really loved to be there…just couldn’t make it happen (business conflicts).
Looks like a blast. Hopefully the weather holds out..
