  1. I’ll just note he has lost less games overall at the FCS level than Bo Pelini lost at the FCS level this year.
  2. Syngenta is bought. It also should be noted that they were Swiss, and Bayer bought Monsanto. So the only big American player left in Ag stuff on the chemical seed end is Corteva which was spun out of Dow/DuPont.
  3. Chizik was just the DC at UNC in 15-16 and gave up 645 yards rushing to a crippled team of rape enthusiasts, and ranked solidly in the bottom half of defense nationally.
  4. No when he coordinated the North Carolina defense a couple years ago and didn’t stop anybody
  5. Why would Gene Chizik under Mack go any better than it did when he was there a couple of years ago as DC?
  6. My Mom played volleyball, basketball, and softball in college in the early days of women’s athletics, and my Grandma was MVP of her WAVES Navy basketball team in WW2, and played some exhibition tennis matches against the reigning women’s US Open champ in college.
  7. Saying assless chaps pisses me off so much. Might as well say sleeveless overalls too.
  8. With an assist from a pretty healthy dose of hog and/or cattle shit.
  9. They’ve ran out of stickers in my suburban Nebraska precinct
  10. https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/crime/article220565400.html So alledgedly Jeff Henry was dealing meth and buying sex while up in the KC area
  11. NBC should of known she was a System Anchor.
  12. Less people means more room for cattle and that’s all that matters
  13. Every good American hates Oklahoma and therefor there is no one without a rooting interest.
  14. All the tickets have been sold for the first time this season. How many regularly show up remain to be seen.
  15. They do play CU or OU 5 out of the next 6 years OOC.
  16. Central has a really weird attendance area, you get the neighborhood that Warren Buffet lives in, and then some that Warren definitely doesn't live in.
  17. It didn't hurt. There's some follow up articles that are still behind the paywall that expound on in further. One example is the Auburn, NE football program that produced the Kelsay brothers in the late 90's that made the NFL. 10 years ago they were getting 80 boys out for football, this year they have 29. They've got 35-40 less boys in school, but the bigger deal is they've got 27 out for Cross Country. Perkins County in Western Nebraska that sent a few kids to Lincoln over the years had to forfeit last week because they couldn't field 8 healthy players. They've got 22 out for cross country. When I was in HS in the late 90's we had 90% of the boys in school out for football, now they get about 60% after a consolidation and that's with a program that's in the playoffs most every year. The big metro schools haven't put out as much talent lately. Omaha Central hasn't sent any kids to Lincoln in a few years, and that's the program that produced Gale Sayers, Ahman Green, and a host of others. It's seems like the OPS schools are starting to bounce back as there are top 100 kids this year and next after about a decade drought.
  18. You also have to look at the sharp drop in kids playing football in Nebraska too. We’ve lost close a quarter of the football programs in the state the last 30 odd years. And the remaining don’t have nearly the participation either. There’s just not that many kids in Nebraska either. https://dataomaha.com/media/sports/high-schools/football/the-disappearance-of-high-school-football/
  19. That should be one area where they shouldn't struggle, plenty of big corn fed farm boys in Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas etc.. Yes. There’s a bunch of instate linemen playing out of state. Fant at Iowa and Holtorf at KSU top that list this year.
  20. Fucking up line recruiting since Callahan is really coming home to roost.
  21. I’ll just point out that Doane is off to a good start again this year.
