Just heard that out of 353 Division I teams, Nebraska ranks 347th in bench minutes. I think Miles plays the bench too much despite what that statistic implies. The NE bench is worthless and the only hope is to play Copeland, Roby and Palmer the whole game. Palmer looks to have slipped a few notches...

No positive spin on that one, bad loss.

The distribution center is not closing. Doesn't it seem like it is an eventuality though? I just don't see Shopko surviving long term. It will be weird to have the distribution center so far removed from it's stores. Greg Not necessarily. Their service area is very large due to the centralized loca...

I would have liked to win but was expecting this outcome. The better team won. Glad to see our defense playing better.

I would agree that they really need this for the skyline. Downtown Lincoln though has been on a roll as of late. Love the transformation of the Haymarket and also how much housing has developed downtown and the university driven housing along Antelope Valley.

Most definitely, Michigan State is the favorite.

Definitely needed that with Michigan State coming into town next. Nice to lead from start to finish. I still got nervous at times. Nice to finish strong.

I think locally the stations here had over saturated the market. I never understood news starting at 4 and with exception of 5:30, running until 7. I'm just not sure there is demand anymore for that much local news. As far as traveling, I guess I feel differently on our local news. I've been for the...

UNO lost 3-2 tonight in overtime in Denver. Tony Boone said tonight was the first time UNO has scored on Denver in over 300 minuets of hockey! Last night UNO fell short 1-0. Where would we be without Weninger this year? He again played so well in Denver. Big home series this weekend with North Dako...

I watched it as well. We definitely did not look good. I wouldn't say it was a must win but it was definitely not a game we could really afford to lose. Roby looked very good. Was surprised we did not sub in the 2nd half. With the close road losses we could not afford to lose this game at home. Coup...

Who they play, where they are ranked, who they have won or lost to doesn't matter at all until the end of the season. TM is on the hot seat from the moment this season started and will be all season no matter what. He has to make the NCAA and probably win a game to meet the exceptions that he has, ...

Hopefully they beat up on Iowa on Sunday. I think IA is way overrated at this point. I'd like to beat Iowa as well and was surprised how well they are doing. Only losses are in conference to MSU and Wisconsin, and now Purdue. Non conference wins aren't too bad, beating Iowa State, Oregon, UConn and...

Tough last second loss on the road at Maryland. Going to have to win a few of these this year because it will be increasingly difficult to maintain the home unbeaten streak in the much improved Big 10. Next game is a tough one as well. On the road at #25 Iowa. https://journalstar.com/sports/huskers/...

With Sears closing, does that mean there is a better chance that Crossroads gets knocked down and rebuilt? I think it helps but also don't think it had anything to do with the issues to date. Yates clearly wanted the city to cough up far more than they did. The landscape has changed so much to now ...

Sears officially closing at Crossroads.

I agree! Lou Malnati's is where it's at when it comes to Chicago deep dish. My mom and dad are native Chicagoans, and Lou's always was the place to go. If one is interested in deep dish pizza, Pizzeria Davlo serves up a decent pie. Lou's and Giordano's have always been my two favorites in Chicago. ...

Quiet crowd, unexcited play, still win by over 20, beer was great at Kinkaider's. Good Saturday in the Haymarket. Crowd was probably quiet because a lot of students are home for the holidays. But yeah its nice to NU show and get the job done easily. We were driving to in laws in Oklahoma City liste...

For the past two years they have scheduled a, for lack of a better word, exhibition style game around this time. It's nothing but a tune up, afraid I don't see what's to get so worked up about. UNO would replace a team like Green Bay on the schedule, not this one. Who do you see as getting worked u...

Yeah I wish they would occasionally put UNO on their schedule for a regular season game instead of a team like this. It would be more interesting.

This is really good to see. a Juco All American signing with NU and that he's from Iowa Western. Lots of talent that has come out of that program and NU has not seemingly recruited it well. It's been puzzling considering Tom Osborne helped them get up and running. https://www.omaha.com/huskers/footb...

Nebraska is having a very good signing day. Wow.

That’s surprising. I thought they’d drop more with a loss at Minnesota and a win over a non vintage Creighton team. I will take it.

A nice win last night. Would have loved to be there win they showed the volleyball team winning in Minneapolis to advance to another final four. Big game coming up against former conference foe Okie State in Sioux Falls. Greg In front of a sell out crowd of 3,400!!!! I wish I was going next Sunday....

That was a tough one to lose. Pretty well the whole game except the end. Liked the classy move by NU on the t shirts before the game.
