UNL-Boulder??

Since when did Nebraska become Colorado? Targeting one game on the schedule? What an absolute fucking embarrassment to the program, the university and its fans. NU is supposedly about one game at a time, tradition, and major accomplishments (national titles and bowl wins)...not one, regular-season game against Texas. Let's not forget that the Cornhuskers have found ways to blow at least four games against the Longhorns. As soft as Texas is, they're still one of the most athletic teams around. Giving them the motivation they often lack is the last thing one should do. Good job to whoever fucked this up....

Speaking of fuckups, was anyone else surprised at the latest round of inductees to the Nebraska Football Hall of Fame? Since when did the criteria read: "Had a slightly above average career during an era when the team was Top 5 in the nation OR has been gone so long that we remember him fondly but forget how little impact he really had."?

-Dan Alexander: Helped fumble away several NU victories and nearly another one against Colorado in Boulder. Racked up some big yardage games, but lack of moves and balance proved him ineffective against real teams. Often fell over when anyone nipped his ankles. Unfortunately for Alexander, once he did get rolling, Frank Solich would take him out of the game. (See at KSU during the snow game)

-Carlos Polk: PYB loves Polk, but since when did being a kick coverage standout for three seasons make one HOF material? Averaged around seven tackles a game his last two seasons. Nice career, absolutely. HOF? Marginal at best. The fact that he played eight seasons in the NFL could move the needle here.

-Todd Millikan: What are we missing? 40 career catches. The press release mentions a shoulder injury, a couple other injuries, a couple TDs, and he played in some bowl games. Sweet. Everyone gets a ribbon!!

And on an unrelated note, it's glad to see the Mayor selling out for talent, justifying his complete disregard of character to try for some wins. "Accountability, easy to talk to......." Whatever. This kid will be gone within a year after he bangs some Ames co-ed against her will or steals the car that daddy bought her for college. Stay tuned.
