More good hires for the Nebraska staff (at least on paper). Be curious to see what they can do with one off-season. I go back and forth on whether it's one off season. I really trust Trev and I think he knows what to look for as far as improvement. Too bad he wasn't at UNL a year earlier. I thought...

Chick Fil A sauce vs Raisin Canes sauce-

Which do you prefer?…

Ciao..LiO…Peace

This is tough actually. For Fries I like Chick Fil A Sauce, but for Chicken I like Raising Cane's.

Overall, though, I would give the edge to Raising Cane's.

I love a good burger. It’s hard not to enjoy a good burger in any of maybe 50 joints around town. Like pizza, you will never get any 10 people to agree on who has “the best” pizza, burger, BBQ, tacos, etc. It’s just not worth worrying about. If a place has a good burger (or pizza, tacos, etc.) then...

I didn't get to watch the game sadly, so I am glad to get your thoughts there Cowboy. Bummer overall, but, these are games they hopefully learn from. BYU is going to be another large test, hopefully they pass that one.

Sounds like Mickey Joseph will be first assistant hired. We lost out on him a couple years ago. Glad we it looks like we will get him this time. Greg That would actually be a pretty dang good hire. I agree. I am assuming they will announce them all at once? Greg Mickey Joseph confirmed to be coming...

I love seeing this perspective, you get a perfect view of just how large of a scale this project and the other down closer to the river are. 5 years from now it's going to be just so mind bogglingly different down there, and I am curious to see what comes next.

The real question- On your chicken wings- do you prefer Ranch or Blue Cheese dressing?.. Discuss… Ciao..LiO…Peace Bleu Cheese is my preference, but I won't turn down ranch. I’m with you on this. But I, unfortunately, go with ranch most all of the time due to being allergic to Blue Cheese… Ciao..LiO...

15 vs 42 Free Throw Attempts? That seems totally even, no discrepancy whatsoever. Why do we always think FT attempts have to be equal? Sometimes one team is more aggressive driving to the hoop instead of settling for jump shots. Or sometimes can officiating can be bad. Officiating was bad. That doe...

Another one of the Jays upcoming opponents Arizona St lost 29-51 last night to Washington St. They had one player make 5 field goals and the rest of the team only made 7 combined shots. That is definitely one of the lower scoring games I have seen. A basketball game with a football score. Wowza.

After the past three games, this one was really satisfying to watch. Wire to wire, the most complete game of the year for the Jays… Ciao..LiO…Peace That was exactly my response....this is the most complete game that they have played to date. Granted the competition wasn't great, but neither were so...

I understand your “cup half full” perspective.. I really do. And, in fact-after the 2019 season, I’m on record on this forum for feeling the same way..but after the debacles of the last 2 seasons, NO WAY.. 6-6 is a losers benchmark. If Frost intends to maintain his head coaching job, he needs to de...

MadMartin8

Again, a win is a win, but that was one big pile of poop. They've got to slow down and create plays, they don't have their timing down enough yet to run full speed.

MadMartin8

The moment adversity strikes, Frost's teams fold. You could literally bet with 100% accuracy that once that Punt got blocked, everything was going to go to heck and it did.

I do think Smothers has more promise than Martinez, but that line and the overall psyche of the team is a hot mess.

MadMartin8

Phew. Far closer than it should have been, but I'll take any "W".

It'll be good to get them back home.

Greg

a 3-8 Team opening as a favorite against a what, 9-2 or so team? Boy Vegas/Casinos/etc is trying to get some bets on this one.

That said, I know enough Iowa fans that I will be actively rooting for Nebraska this Friday.

MadMartin8

What a crazy shooting night from Colorado State.

Oh well. There will be valleys and peaks this year. Hopefully more of the later than the former, but don't know.

MadMartin8

If Nebraska had a consistent QB and just overall killer instinct from the team...it'd only have 1-2 losses at this point.

Absolutely befuddling at how close, yet so far away that team is.

MadMartin8

That was an entertaining game to watch, glad for an Omaha Championship.

For those interested and those who have it, ESPN+ is streaming the Union Omaha vs Greenville Champ Game.

Seeing the effort from AOC all game was great. Kalk played a bit like the big man down low we need him to be.

I think the T.Os will clean up as the players get more comfortable with each other, and get their timings etc. down.

MadMartin8

Jays finally put an almost complete game together. Glimpses of what this team will (hopefully) become as they get more experience and get more in-tune with one another has me giddy.

MadMartin8

I remember having season tickets back in the 90s when they played at Aksarben. Kinda sad to see it has fallen that badly. Yeah I had them the whole time they were at Ak Sar Ben. In their prime before UNO's arrival, they were a total cash cow and financially far and way the strongest team in the lea...

MadMartin8

I'm just thankful that they are slowly gelling as a team it seems. Need to cut down on turnovers, but they're getting there. I think it's the making of something special over the next few years and it's pretty exciting. And I agree, if Kalk can learn to be a bit more aggressive (but in a smart way),...

So very glad we got Nembhard. What a player, I can't wait to see what he's like once he gets some more experience. He was good last night. I think Creighton is also going to very happy that they have Ryan Hawkins and his experience this year with all the youngsters. Agreed. Not only for his experie...

Looks like Gabinet has got UNO back in form. What a win.

That was a stinker of a shooting night, both from 3 and the Field. Hopefully those kinds of nights don't happen often, young team or not. These first half crapfests are concerning though. I will take the win, 2-0 is better than 1-1 or 0-2, but there are definitely concern areas as we get later in th...

MadMartin8

First half was rough again, just like in the exhibition. The second half was a thing of true beauty. I think that's going to be the M.O that we'll see from this team at least through the beginning part of the year, which is probably normal for any young team I suppose. I think this team requires a r...

...Who is going to coach offense?

Is it going to be a Ron Brown show and any other former Huskers they can find?
