Here's hoping that about half their roster enters the portal and we're playing against walk-ons.

Would be real nice if their whole team mailed it in the rest of the way. Sometimes it goes in the opposite direction and they rally around each other and fight like hell in the remaining games.

I'm pretty much counting on the second one happening.  That is too good of a roster not to.

When Miles was dead-man walkin', the 2018-19 Huskers rallied late, that's for certain. It's usually a pride thing for the players to prove they're good enough.

I knew they were hurting, but I didn’t know they had fallen to Q4 road game hurting!

That's the primary reason I responded... so Mich could correct it.

Decidedly, emphatically NOT the best fans in the country.

"If you've got to go out there before the game, halftime, back out, end of game, (and) to put the most vulgar, drunk individuals that are going to spew profanity-laced things, climbing railings to get at me ... I think you've got to look at trying to create a safer passage."

I think it's a reflection of their head coach. The pernicious assholery among members of that fanbase is pervasive. And he eggs it on.

Who wore it better? Rick Pitino or Mr. Roarke? (The one on our left is Roarke.)

It's like Hoiberg says all the time, "I don't get too high or too low, let's f'n go."

Read in the OWH today that there is talk of Ryan Kalkbrenner and Steven Ashworth using their year (which I didn't know they had) to come back to Creighton for another season.

Neither are NBA players, so I guess that makes since if the NIL $$$ are right.

McNeeley would be a perfect fit for the system we run.

Usually, it's said in jest about CU wanting the same guys....
