That was an awful call on BC. What’s the defender supposed to do?

 

[pharmacygopher]

God I can't stand Nebraska. They get a sniff of mediocrity and are insufferable.

And Raiola goes into punk mode. I thought he should have gotten an unsportsmanlike penalty for starting the scuffle.

I could see letting it go, but calling it on BC was ridiculous. If there was a flag it was on Raiola

And the announcer says Nebraska should be a top 25 team next year.

Has there ever been a college football team go eight years without a winning season and begin most of those seasons ranked?

They had to win their mediocre bowl game to inch above .500 for this season and here we go again. It is starting out more delusional now than prior to last season and I didn’t think that was possible.

2025 schedule

Cincinnati in Kansas City - win probably, if they lose it’ll be delicious
Akron - win
Holy cross - win
Michigan - big game 50/50 depending on how you feel about Michigan I suppose. 50/50 because I’m down on Michigan
Bye
Michigan state - probably a win

They don’t play a road game until Oct 11
@maryland - will be interesting
@Minnesota - will be interesting
Northwestern - win
@UCLA - interesting
Bye
@ penn state - loss
Iowa - interesting

Ceiling is 11
Floor is probably 3

Probably about 7-8 close games. How does Nebraska play in close games?

6-6

[BTChamp]

The closest I could find fast. The Longest Yard.

First time watching ISU this year I take it

 

[Word]

No taunting penalty?

 

[Word]

Iffy PI call on ISU.

 

[stocker08]

lol....the Poptarts Bowl already has five touchdowns in the first quarter. Very good.

 

[mggoph]

Carson Hanson (Lakeville) is having a nice day

 

[cheeseheadgophfan]

OK. I may have changed my opinion of Cam Ward….he’s nice

Looks like a very favorable schedule, but still not sure they have the talent to take advantage of it.

Got a chuckle from the color guys assertion that Nebraska will be ranked in the pre-season. Sadly he will probably end up being right.

I mean if they keep predicting a Nebraska breakout they have to be right eventually I guess.

When are they going to realize that they are a Volleyball school?

 

[WindyCityGopher]

Ban all basebowls, please

Speaking of…the Red Sox couldn’t be bothered to temporarily remove their beloved Pesky Pole for the game, so it obstructed the camera view.

So....who else is glad to see Prime getting his ass kicked? Just me? Just hoping it holds.

You mean the guy who can’t coach vs an actually competent team?

Boy the ACC has not fared well. Let's hope that continues!!!

Yeah, scary bad day for them. 1-9 by my count in post season play? Four losses to group of five teams.
