How does Nebraska only have 2 QBs on their roster?

Gebbia left the day after being told he lost out to Adrian Martinez. Now we have a former walkon who earned a scholarship and a true freshman walkon as the only QB's on the team.

Most valuable college football program according to Forbes...

Texas A&M

I heard that list yesterday. Was really surprised to see them over Texas, Alabama, OSU and Michigan. What is it that they have that creates that much value? Texas has the TV contract, OSU/Mich get propped up by the Big10 network and their massive fan bases.

The guy from Mississippi giving linguistics and pronunciation lessons on the Hawaiian language just now on the Paul Finebaum show completely made my day.

Spoiler!

It's been widely reported that the Aggies closed the gap with the cross-state rival Longhorns because of a vast increase in contributions. And indeed, from 2014 through the 2016-17 season, the Texas A&M athletic departmentearned $260 million in contributions, nearly double what any other school made in that time.For reference, in those years, Texas had total athletic contributions of $123 million; Florida, which ranks second in the category, totaled contributions of $138 million. Texas A&M, meanwhile, allocated $119 million of its total contributions just to the football team.

Anyone see the Dr Pepper commercial? Dad says Soccer is a gateway sport, first you start watching Soccer and next you'll be watching Lacrosse.

Jeff Thomas is unreal.

Especially considering he has to deal with Rosier as his QB.

Absurd that they didn't even review that pretty clear fumble there by auburn.

[shel311]

Then of course review the very next play that won't be overturned.

funniest post I saw yesterday regarding the Nebraska game.

"Scott Frost steps onto the field and Mother Nature had an orgasm"

Even funnier is how bad Nebraska is

[shel311]

Can't stand kicking a 50+ yard field goal on 4th and short.

[Cnasty]

That was a quick 14

[shel311]

Getting a penalty on a 3rd and long stop that keeps the drive going then eventually giving up a TD is the worst feeling in football.

[shel311]

There was no need to actually jump

[Cnasty]

Ugh blew it

[Cnasty]

21 unanswered since that penalty?
