JT was named a team captain today, more signs pointing towards him being the starter.

Indeed. I am disappointed honestly. I expected more
just like Richt's tenure at Georgia
Zing!
I figured this would happen.

That and they don't need a QB to do a ton with Elliott out there and the schedule they play. They need someone that knows the playbook well and won't make mistakes or force things. JT is more of that guy.
I could still see Urban letting Cardale play quite a bit.

Exactly. J.T is there for short passing game and if you need the deep ball to keep the secondary honest, throw Cardale in. It doesn't matter who is qb because either way.

Cardale is an up and down guy, reminds me of tp; when they were on they were on. Jt is very mellow and doesn't have emotional swings
JT also is way better at spreading the ball around to different wr. While I was researching ask years games last week I had forgot how good JT was

Side note, what do y'all think of the Scarlet and Grey Days (the hard knocks OSU show) if y'all have seen it?

It's ok, not a ton of substance there and a super watered down hard knocks, but still kinda cool to see training camp

It'd be better if it was longer to me.

Is there any other kind?
knew that was coming.
less about the players, more for the expectations of the bluehairs who think hiring someone that doesn't cuss publically is the reason they'll get back to a championship.

Well maybe we are just foolish and maybe Eichorst knows more than us?
he's like a Manchurian candidate for Wisconsin I think is the most popular conspiracy theory. Fire their decent coach and hire a potentially sub-par coach. Either way, he wins, he's a genius. If he doesn't, On Wisconsin to wait till Barry croaks for his job.

So Big Ten conference preview is supposed to be on and they are showing the SEC even though they are showing it again in a few hours.
I feel the disrespect.

I'll probably watch that game. I was so desperate for football the other day I watched a local highschool game on TV for half an hour.

Not from here so I don't care who wins.

While I don't think the bluehairs didn't like his cursing that much, I thought they hated his staff more than they hated him.

My local high school was playing one of those gimmick offenses that don't punt or take field goals. It didn't go well for them.

Knibb high football rules.
Rumblings on $9.95 that true freshman Jake Browning (although he came in early for spring ball) has been named the starting QB. Junior Jeff Lindquist had seemingly led throughout spring and fall up until practices were closed a week ago, so if Browning is indeed the starter it means he either really came on in the past week or Lindquist fell apart.
Most people expected Browning to redshirt this year and take over next season, but we might just be starting the Browning era right now.

But ND is hated everywhere tho.
Definitely watching. Will be a nice appetizer for the feast next week.
Go NDSU I guess.

That NDSU QB run threat and their o-line are just running all over Montana.
.edit: Either one team figures out defense at the half or its a grand shootout with nearly 90 points scored when all is said and done.

Did you want to keep Bo?
He knew that Pelini had to go. That's enough for me.
You mean the coach that was producing consistent 9 win minimum seasons and wasn't running a completely botched west coast offense that produced the first losing Nebraska season in forever?
New AD, new coach, ad infinitum.
I'm like the worst homer but I seriously hope people realize 1995 is fucking over sooner or later.

It's kind of funny that the huskers are opening up vs. BYU because it's two of the most stuck-in-the-past fanbases in the country, Also, please beat the coogies into a pulp, thnx.

I know where this comes from
The thing about FSU is that even when Jeff Bowden was spinning a twister wheel to do play calling, FSU always had those insane recruiting classes. They really didn't miss much of a beat there. Nebraska on the other hand is in a slightly harder spot.
People seem to want to ignore that Nebraska doesn't have the pick of the litter anymore. College football got more and more parity and nobody wants to play for a team that plays in the cold and isn't a good path to the NFL if you're on offense or a QB.
Ol' Tom could run his massive walk-on tryouts back when Nebraska was one of your only hopes to get on TV or to a bowl game. Now you can play for a paycheck-game school and you'll be on at least one of the ESPNs more than once a year and near-losing teams are allowed to go to the post season. Times have changed, motherfuckers. There have been recent seasons where Nebraska could have won it all and they wouldn't have gone to the NC game. And I wouldn't have wanted them there because they would have gotten stomped like the last time we went down the wrong hallway and ended up in the National Championship game.
Every time the media starts saying this, Nebraska implodes.

Oh man, the Grizzlies might do this.
That 4th down play was awesome.
That 4th down coverage was abysmal.
Still, always great to see a game come down to a goal line stand.

What a hell of a game. Montana did wonders with a simplified playbook.
