    I bet the Rose Bowl wishes it grabbed the Buckeyes.

    Yup...an Iowa-ND matchup would've been a no-win situation for me as one of those schools would have to win.

    The real conference bowl records

    Yeah, Power 5 schools conferences should get dinged if one of their teams loses to a mid-major. Seems like he's trying to compare the relative strength of the Power 5 conferences and feels that games against mid-majors cloud that comparison. Problem is that bowl records from one season...

    OT-4k tv opinions....

    Yeah, the effects will be more subtle. The newer 4K models will likely have the TV companies' best internals. Couple that with the better color representation found in 4K video and we'll see a more subtle improvement over an older set. But like you said, the jump from 720/1080p to 4K won't be...

    OT-4k tv opinions....

    4K is overkill at this point due to the lack of 4k content out there. I'm not switching to a 4K set until 4K is standard for streaming services and new Blu-Rays.

    10 games in to Riley's career

    Probably not until most of Bo's remaining recruits are out, to be honest with you.

    Great win! Where was this type of play in our 6 losses?

    To be fair, the defense was still maligned. They just had a good enough first quarter to keep Sparty in the 30s. The offense putting up 39 (could've been over 40 if not for missed 2 pt conversions) with some running output against this MSU defense was key

    We are #1 !!!

    Let's also not forget: 1. The difficult wins against average opponents 2. No fewer than four losses per season except for the season he was fired. 3. Zero championships of significance 4. Zero BCS/New Year's Six tier bowl games. 5. Numerous PR gaffes and attrition with the fans and media...

    The game is on ESPN News?!?!

    Do you have WatchESPN?

    I see us being 7-5, and I fear Riley would be comfortable with that.

    That's Iowa math for you. Certainly not the brightest of the bunch.

    Feels damn good to have Riley as HC

    ...also consider that 9 players on the travel roster were true freshmen recruited by Riley. Then, take a look at our 2012 and 2013 classes that should comprise the strength of our squad. A lot of misses there.

    I see us being 7-5, and I fear Riley would be comfortable with that.

    True. But let's face it, Pelini would still be here if Colt McCoy's pass stayed up in the air for one more second and/or if the regular season ended 10-2 instead of 9-3 last year.

    The cupboard is NOT 20-3 bare.

    What's also interesting is the possibility that these fans are the same ones who praised Bo and the team from nearly coming back against MSU last year under similar circumstances.

    Wow, I was wrong about Riley, this could be the death of Nebraska Football

    Riley may not be the answer. I just find it odd that people are writing him off after three games despite letting Bo have six straight seasons of four losses, no significant trophies aside from the mythical #9wins trophy, few big wins against good opponents, lots of blowouts, and comebacks...

    Where you at now?

    What does the AP poll count for these days either? Like HTO said, the media uses the poll because...hold on to your seat...it's a media based poll. You make it sound like the poll is a vastly superior poll. I can't believe that you brought up the computer polls to imply that the Coaches' Poll...

    Why is nobody talking about the 2 missed field goals?

    It was a team loss. The offense was too erratic. Minimal rushing game where we couldn't be counted to convert third and shorts. Defense was poor through the air and especially that last drive. The PR team seemed thrown off by the rugby-style kicks too much. No pash rush. Bad run blocking.

    Jon Schuetz's deleted facebook post found.

    Neither of those things really gives Schuetz a pass either. If one makes a negative remark about an employer, whether a current or a potential employer, he opens up to the consequences of said comment. In Schuetz's case, the content of the comment and the timing apparently led the university...

    So you think that you'd keep your job if you made a critical comment about your boss, a high ranking public figure no less, on social media?

    Congrats to Lane Grindle, new(est) Husker PA announcer plus NU statement

    Although he would further the stereotype that Nebraskans are a bunch of hillbillies, Larry would be entertaining! Problem is that his stand-up success would result in a super high price tag.:)

    OT..Is there any part of Lincoln not under road construction??

    Which is why roundabouts don't work here. I do agree that they are a convenience IF used correctly. However, people in this town can't be trusted to follow traffic rules in a roundabout.
