That's what I said after the game as bad as we played we could have won that game if one or two things go differently. We are a better team than Illinois right now, so would not mind seeing them again in the first round.

God forgive me for writing this but... Need to go help,find Ray a slump buster, you know a .... fat girl.... That's what they do in baseball. Okay kill me for the crude remark. I deserve it.

Cool for Terran and nice of Kye to give up his number. Doesn't that cost you a lot in the NBA.

Forgot about the summer trip. Still we hear so much about how we looked so bad on the big stage, I know mostly football. I really don't care as I can't influence the outcome any way just wanted to hear from others on it. Now if we get in the NCAA and play well that wipes out all the other 3.

That looks like something from the 20's or 30's. When did we ever have a circle around the N?

Okay I'll ask this question then. Which is better? 1) NCAA get blown out because of our seed. 2) NIT good run maybe win it, at least get to New York for final four. 3) Stay at home and go recruit. I say 2 for me. I know our team and fans want to get to the NCAA, but I think this team needs to play as many games as they can. I mean really most of us were thinking maybe the CTI at the beginning of the year and maybe the NIT if we got hot. What we really need to do as fans is 24 hour rule this one, and rest those voices for Saturday. They will need us, for the energy and to show them that we still love them even if they are dashing our dreams( that dashing our dreams part was a joke:))

Was thinking about that. Kind of wondering if they might try something weird to win. Thought about a box and one or triangle and two.

Like the idea of Us Always to start the second half.

I think that Todd Kitty on the comments web page may have put this to rest: Todd Kitty - 23 minutes ago At what point do these old hags in Lincoln shut their pieholes? Can't stand up during games...Can't yell too loudly b/c that's disrespectful to the rest of the people in your section trying to enjoy their Runza...Can't chant during an opponent's introduction b/c by golly, those kids at Purdue EARNED the right to have their name called over the loud speaker and RESPECT RESPECT RESPECT. Judas. I'm all for respecting the opponent and embracing tradition, but since when does that mean you need to treat the arena like a goldanged cathedral? It's a sporting event, Jean, not Easter Sundee. And last I checked, we've got exaclty 0 tourney appearances in the last 15 years, and exactly 0 tourney wins EVER. This team needs every ounce of help it can get. Take your buns and your ill-timed gripes to the friggin VFW where somebody might actually give a flyin fuuuuug, Jean. Once again at least we have been nice.

Or as Icedragon told us never.

Poor Jean is getting killed in the comments section of the LJS. One guy even wrote "Jean Peck...you suck". We are least being kind if nice here.

Could you send that into the paper Jimmy as that maybe the funniest thing that will be said about this.

It was a joke that is why the grinning smiley face. That is also why I said it was kind of tongue in cheek. Of course we aren't winning our way out, but it almost sounds like it from what this guy is saying. We are seeing that others see this a bit different than us. He is saying that our wins are that big of a deal, while we think it all depends on us winning all the games to finish the year. Maybe we Win all of our games than lose in the first round of the big and don't get in. We don't know, this is just my way of trying to lighten the mood some. My bad.

Wait Nebraska has a football team? Wow that sounds as stupid as when people said that about the basketball team, sorry, carry on with what ever everybody was doing.

Actually I wrote it after reading this part of the nice article that 49r found on the Offical Media thread. Of course a five game winning streak and 7-1 mark the last eight games helps out quite a bit, especially with the upset over Michigan State, but there's still something lacking for the Cornhuskers thanks to the sizable hole they're still trying to dig out of. While the win streak is nice, highlighted by the win over State, the other four wins have came against Big Ten bottom dwellers Northwestern, Illinois, Penn State and Purdue. With Illinois and Northwestern on the schedule this week it puts Nebraska into another situation where neither win will really help them but a single loss could knock them out of contention. The same thing will likely be said about their road trip to Bloomington on the 5th, with it also being another vanilla win that is required. The problem here is if Nebraska won their next three games, but lost to Wisconsin, they'd likely need to win a game or two in the Big Ten Tournament to feel good about themselves. I kind of did do it tongue in check but it does kind of show that we may have played ourselves out of the tourny by winning? Not really but our win streak seems to have changed how some are now looking at us. Or I could be just really wayyyyyyyyyyy, waaaaaaaaaaaaaay,wwwwwwwwwwwway of.

We got him he will here!!! What say you Kearney?

Part of our problem about trying to get in is that now the rest of the country is seeing as an above average to average team. What this does is put us in a lose-lose situation. If we win all our games up to Wisconsin nobody is going to do back flips for us because we are now seen as a team that should win those games, maybe even easily. Then others might not see us beating Wisconsin at home as that big of an upset since we would be almost undefeated at home but for with a missed tip in to a 2 or 3 seeded Michigan. We may have actually hurt ourselves with this win streak. But with out it we wouldn't be in it. Is this Irony, a conundrum, catch 22 or just something that we haven't ever been through?

Well written and spells out the plus and minus of what we have done and what we need to do.

Okay I am going to say he is in.Which one of us is going to right? 50/50 chance that one of us will be right. One will look a genius the other a fool. Which is is going to be me or you? I have been called a fool and worse so I am willing to go out on that limb.

Iowa Nebraska Minn. MSU

Yep.

THAT...WAS...AWSOME... Total swag

Well he has a 50/50 chance of being correct.

Was just going to say that.

wait you guys wear pants during the game? YEAH they kind of want the Vault to have a bit of class.
