Somebody must have liked it. 
 

Everyone i've talked to about that website doesn't like it.

I'm just saying that because they ultimately had changed it to that, so somebody liked it.

They just have scores going back to 1950.  Huskers.com used to have scores going back to 1890.

I'm not too pleased they got rid of everything pre-1950. It sucks, tbh.

Focus groups royally screw it up all the time. Crystal Pepsi, New Coke, etc...

Actually, I think it's due to the media rights deal we signed with Playfly.  Their site is powered by WMT digital, the same company currently powering huskers.com. 

Not entirely sure how much of the problem is migrating all the data vs the usability of the site considering that for most of the year I could access a PDF of a game boxscore for the women and not the men.  Now the box scores are there for the men.

 

Hopefully the WMT digital stuff will improve and/or more information will be entered over time because we're not moving to a new media partner anytime soon.

"New Coke" 

 

Yeah, that was bad and somebody got fired!

I like the word "improve" because the site could certainly use a lot of it...

Not sure if this is the right topic but here is my Historic Factoid.

 

From what I can tell Nebraska is 1-3 on leap day.

2012 L Iowa 53-62

1992 W Colorado 84-70

1980 L K-State 51-60 (B8 Tourney game)

1964 L Ok St 45-81

 

I couldn't find schedules for all the years going back so there may be a few more leap day games.

Interesting that 2/29/2024 is only the 2nd time in the Big Ten era, well, now's the time to buck that Leap Day "1-6" trend, because tonight, Nebrasketball's gonna jump out on top of the Bucks, and then suffocate 'em on defense 'til the Diebler-led dweebs surrender. Let's do this, Big Red!!
