I really hope OU kicks the shit out of them or atleast covers the +4 1/2

This sideline reporter was so much hotter when she was Samantha Steele instead of Samantha ponder.

So far the Blackshirts have come to play. Great pass defense, even with the two Pass Interferences. If you haven't watched much Husker football this year they take big chances in pass defense which leads to those PI's, but they come up with HUGE plays by taking those chances

I figured this would be a good game, and I figured they would come to play after there last game. Regardless of how it turns out, you have to be happy.

And as I'm writing, the secondary gives up another big play.

If they were to lose the only way I'd be happy is if it was on a game winning FG from 60 yards. According to ESPN and all the other SEC homers out there Nebraska wasn't supposed to be able to hang with this team. All you heard was that UGA was 1 play away from the NCG and the Huskers gave up 70 points and 540 yards rushing. GurShall was going to run all over this defense and Murray being the 2nd rated QB in efficiency this wasn't supposed to be a game. They never mentioned that the Huskers led the nation in pass efficiency and allowed only 46% completion rate.


and as i type this Murray found Marshall for a TD

Alot of that going on....Miss State players made some comments too. Purdue is godawful.

Orange Bowl rep to NIU: We didn't even want you here

As if Northern Illinois didn't need any added motivation for its match-up against Florida State on Tuesday night in Miami, the Huskies got a little more. And it comes from an unlikely place: a rant from an Orange Bowl representative towards an NIU staffer.



“You guys [NIU] don't even deserve to be here,” the Orange Bowl rep said to the NIU staffer. “We didn't even want you here.”



According to a source, the exchange took place the other night in a hospitality suite. The Orange Bowl rep had compared NIU to Duke. The NIU rep responded by pointing out that the Huskies, who are riding a 12-game winning streak, have been to bowl games in five consecutive seasons. The conversation escalated from there, the source says.



The 12-1 Huskies' presence in the Orange Bowl has been a sore subject for many from the moment when the BCS Bowl pairings were announced in early December. ESPN college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit even called it “a joke” that the Huskies were invited to play in the Orange Bowl. One NIU player responded by heaving an orange at the TV after hearing Herbstreit's comments.



Florida State, which earlier this season did lose to an unranked NC State team, is a 14-point favorite.

Did anybody else see the ref give Michigan that first down? Everybody on the planet could see that the ball was short of the sticks but him.

[Cnasty]

It is a joke, they don't deserve to be there.
Doesn't mean you have to be rude to the poor team

And screw mike and hIs Jordan lynch man love.

I cannot wait for this game. I hope NIU doesn't shit the bed and keeps this game close

That was a monster hit

For those not near a TV or screen

This is where it is scary as a Husker fan. Nebraska down double digits again in the 4th and Taylor Martinez looking like he wants to make that one play to score 14 points himself. Watch out for a Taylor Martinez fumble.

When the fuck did the Atlanta Falcons show up?

Clowney needs to read this article right now.

"Starting right here and right now, if you’re a current college football player and a top 50 NFL prospect, if you suffer a Marcus Lattimore-like injury and you lose millions of dollars because of it, it’s 100% completely and totally your fault.

You just had your wake-up call.

No more tears. No more Twitter shout outs. No more prayers. No, from here on, now that you all know the risks, if you’re an elite of the elite prospect and you get injured playing college football, then that’s on you for not taking charge of your own life, your own future and your own body.

If you really watched Nebraska football this year you would feel the same way I did about our pass defense. We were lucky the whole year. Receivers made unforced errors/mistakes throughout the whole year against our pass defense that made us look good.

So he shouldn't play college football and go straight from high school into the nfl? Injuries happen, what do you want the guy to do,not play?

Nebraska played tough but like said earlier they do go for big plays on d and it bit them. That has been the Georgia d as well. Good to see that got more disciplined in the 2nd half.
