    Classy young women vs a bunch of cougars

    Re your last sentence: Caitlin was the leader of last year's team and set the tone. He tone was one of expecting perfection, from herself and everyone else. Nothing necessarily wrong with that -- all the great ones seem to have that personality, including Michael Jordan. But when things...

    Recap, Reaction: Cy-Hawk Dual

    Hawks still searching for answers at 125 and 141. And unfortunately, no answers in sight. Kueter is nowhere near to reaching the podium, either. And everyone has to admit, Paco just got lucky. (I still haven't heard what the 'mystery' penalty point was for, in addition to the locked hands.)...

    Other weekend games

    How many games have the Cyclones won in the last minute this season? I can think of 3. Maybe more? Echoes of the Hawks last season when they went 6-1 in one-score games.

    Yeah, when the best thing about your season is the end of the 3rd quarter celebration each home game, you got problems.

    No time to panic

    That's the problem with bringing Dembele out to the top of the key to set screens -- you're taking him away from the only thing he can do, which is rebound.

    GOOD BYu

    I think Iowa has beaten more teams with a winning record this season than Indiana.

    Jammari Harris gone

    If true, I had the exact same thought. The Terps have the best pass game in the BTen, and they love to test the corners on long, sideline fly routes -- which are almost impossible to defend. I'll be shocked if they don't create at least 2 pass interference penalties on Iowa tomorrow night --...

    My hope is IF they get into the Red Zone tomorrow -- a big IF -- that they insert Lainez to provide the same run/pass option that Sullivan provided so effectively earlier this season. We know Lainez can run. Let he and Kaleb do their thing down by the goal line.

    nebraska Game Weather

    Both my adult sons are visiting from out-of-state for Thanksgiving, and are pumped about going to the game with me. The temp will be a bit of a shock for my oldest son coming from the Bay Area of CA, not so much for the son from WY...but I'm sure we'll all be well-stocked with full flasks of...

    nebraska Game Weather

    Every Sept during the 85 degree games I curse that my seats at Kinnick are close to the field, because even if there's a breeze we don't feel it...and it cooks. But this time of year I thank the Football Gods to be out of that wind at the top of Kinnick when it's 25 degrees!

    That would be truly surprising if Cade 'quit the team'. Not his personality at all. Now, granted, his concussion sounded very serious, but even if he couldn't play he could travel and help with the QBs. He's been a captain all season, for goodness sake.

    Iowa Kansas

    Agreed. The FR are playing loose and free. Clearly the highly-touted FR of today are not the FR players of 20 years ago!

    Iowa Kansas

    I was trying to think when was the last time I watched an Iowa bball team -- men or women -- play consistently strong defense for multiple games. Been a long time! Coach Jensen clearly values defense more than Bluder, and it shows: better scouting reports are leading to taking away individual...

    Wow. There's Kool Aid, and then there's spiked Kool Aid. This is some spiked Kool Aid with a dash of steroids!

    Sully out for the season

    I have. Maryland consistently underperforms their talent level more than any team not from Nebraska, and at the beginning of the season, I had this Maryland game notched as a sure W for the Hawks. HOWEVER, * on the road at #1 Oregon 10 days ago, if not for a Duck 60-yd fumble return for a...

    Phil Longo out at Wisconsin

    Your ability to describe the past 6 Nebraska coaches in one succinct sentence is Pulitzer worthy!

    Phil Longo out at Wisconsin

    Your theory about recruiting doesn't necessarily hold up. Nebraska has indeed been a dumpster fire for years, but my guess is their recruiting classes have outranked Iowa's almost every one of the those years. There are 3 and 4 star recruits who find the stability of Iowa's program attractive...

    Drake

    Yes. The challenge will be when facing teams with a 6'7" or taller Center who can block O'Grady's inside shot. Will she be able to adjust, step out, and consistently knock down 10 fters?

    Phil Longo out at Wisconsin

    Nebraska fires their OCoordinator with 3 games remaining in the season. Wisconsin fires their OCoordinator with two games remaining. Ferentz must think he's living in some sort of alternative universe hell. Or as he would put it, 'That's football...today. A sign of the times." I don't know...
