Vasherized Willing to Listen if Bar Rafaeli Calls

Posted by Minnesotahorn on February 17th, 2010 under Football

In a move that surely elicited a deep belly laugh from Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delaney, Nebraska athletic director Tom Osborne announced Thursday that should the Big Ten decide that the Huskers and the greater Omaha area's 37 television sets are just too lucrative to pass up they might possibly be willing to entertain the notion of teaming up with those fellows and their $270 million yearly television revenues and prestigious and lucrative

The View from The Drum: Horn v. Corn

Posted by The General on February 14th, 2010 under Basketball

The Horns just gave us a taste of the team we saw against UNC in December, and I like what they are cookin'. Let's jump right in. The Crowd and The Pregame At the 10:00 minute mark before game time, The Drum was empty. But, Texas fans ended up filling the place to a reasonable level for a Saturday afternoon game against Nebraska. It was dead quiet and I was sitting in the geriatric

Just when we thought we were out…

Posted by Nickel Rover on February 13th, 2010 under Basketball

Basketball: ...we're pulled back in.The 91-51 win over Nebraska was just what the doctor ordered. Awiggo from BON had some quick thoughts here and txtwstr7 had more here. There were a few interesting quotes that came out of the game. First from Brown: "My job is to take over this team and get us to the national championship. I have to step up" Brown had 12 points and a 2-1 assist to turnover ration (6-3) and

If we can stop Eric Piatkowski, we might have a chance. By the way, cub reporter HenryJames has the scoop on the starting line-up.

Dont bet against the Spread

Posted by Nickel Rover on February 10th, 2010 under Football

Better Of Red has a great column up by SeattleHusker on "the death of the spread" where he points to Linebacker recruitment as the greatest sign that the days of the spread running roughshod over this league are over. His own Huskers, in particular, frequently ran dime defenses against Big 12 teams including our own Longhorns. If I were a fan of the team that locked down Texas like they did in Big 12

Saturday Top 10 College Hoops

Posted by Trips Right on February 5th, 2010 under Basketball

Unlike last Saturday or this coming Monday, there simply aren't many intriguing matchups. Sabado Gigante thanks you Mr. NCAA Scheduler. So let's rifle through these bonafide formalities that some will call basketball games and get to the one game that matters which is Georgetown vs. Seton Hall. Kansas hosts a reeling Nebraska club after their near miss on the road at Colorado. Interesting that narrowly avoided mid-air collisions are dubbed near misses,

Kiffin has an eye for the 13 year olds

Posted by Nickel Rover on February 4th, 2010 under Basketball

As long as we have all these t-shirts...the university sent 13,000 championship shirts and 1,000 hats to Haiti to clothe their people with the garb of the loser. I always think it's a good thing when programs and leagues send the merchandise of the losing teams to places where just having clothing is valuable but you have to admit there is a degree of irony. Recruiting Scouts Inc, for ESPN has the class ranking$ up

Open Thread: Holiday Bowl – Ndamukong Suh vs. Arizona Wildcats

Posted by Sailor Ripley on December 30th, 2009 under Football

As Texas fans we witnessed a game that probably single-handedly cost Colt McCoy the Heisman while simultaneously elevating Ndamukong Suh into Heisman contention and ultimately allowed him to shag six valkyries on his way to Asgard and kick Odin's ass out of his throne. So, let's see what he can do against offensive juggernaut Arizona. Nate from Better Off Red has written up a few notes about the game. Trips has cried uncle.
