  1. That's the same UTEP team that had 53 total yards vs. Texas. Wow.
  2. The last 2 years the matchup has had similar hype, about how it would be a statement of Nebraska's return to the national scene. I'm going to have to see it in order to believe it, because while neither team is the same as previous years, I'm not sure the changes make up for the 5 touchdowns that Mizzou beat them by each of the last two years. Plus, Mizzou has done really well in big matchups coming off of bye weeks, and the game is in Columbia. Nebraska held up quite well in a nationally televised night game in Blacksburg against a much better team than Mizzou. And Missouri has been very up and down, IMO. The Illinois win was very impressive, regardless of how bad UI is. But the BG game tells me Mizzou is very erratic, and they were not that impressive for 3 quarters against what has turned out to be a pretty crappy Nevada team. The game last year shouldn't be used as a litmus either, imo. Maclin/Coffman/Daniel, etc are huge losses. And that was an early season game for Neb in its first year with a new coach/new system; Neb is much different now. They're not going to return to the old Neb of old like many Corn fans think, but they're back to being a dangerous team in the North. I think Gabbert's and Mizzou's overall youth show in this matchup.
  3. YOu think you guys will win that game? Yes. ^^^ I think NU wins by 10-14. Should be an interesting game, though.
  4. I still want to see Gabbert play against a team that's worth a ish before I jump on his bandwagon. (Sorry UI.) I was unimpressed vs Nevada, and I won't even bring up the Bowling Green game. Last night, all he was doing was tossing up jump balls. That won't fly in the Big 12. But yeah, our defense looked pretty porous today. Didn't give me a lot of confidence heading into the Big 12 season. I have a feeling the South teams are gonna light us up, just like last year. You'll get to see him light up Nebraska in about 10 days. YOu think you guys will win that game?

  6. well our defense is god-awful.
  7. haha, that's pretty funny
  8. Nevada's qb is a gangly mofo
  9. I believe Snood made fun of our recruit Sheldon Richardson in the college football offseason thread for some facebook quote earlier this year. From a newspaper article: Here's some quotes from Tyshawn Taylor's Facebook page: "I got a dislocated finger ... from throwing a punch, so don't let the newspaper gas ya all up, aite," "keep my name out ya mouth for you get smacked in it." "never get outta character ... I'm always a G about it." "n-----s be muggin me ... you know I'm mugging back." http://www.kansan.com/news/2009/sep/23/police_escort_basketball_and_football_players_insi/?news Great job jayhawks. The situation is totally idiotic, but all those quotes (outside of the dislocated finger one) are song lyrics he posted as statuses.
  10. Why does nothing surprise me anymore with teams I like? I feel the same way. at least he didn't tear it while getting his ass kicked by an illini football player.
  11. Well, according to some announcer (I don't remember which of the 1000 games it was on yesterday), that big Duke win for you guys was proof that Mangino has turned the program around, and you guys are a serious force this year. Now, obviously I don't doubt that you guys are a solid team, and obviously your program has turned around over recent years (just like Mizzou), but it blew my mind that the announcer was using a win over DUKE as an example of that. yeah, that's an odd thing to stay. At least we were getting to the QB against our scrub OOC teams this year. Last year we couldnt generate a puss rush, even against our cream puffs.
  12. nervous about Southern Miss. They have some offensive weapons.
  13. I agree with the Bo Pelini hate from earlier in this thread.
  14. They've found it. Reesing might end up with some gawdy numbers by the time this one is over. They're looking better now, but they have to play better next week or Southern Miss could be dangerous.
  15. KU looks like crap.
  16. We should destroy Duke, but we've been kind of sloppy so far this year. I think KU is favored by 20 points.
  17. Rock Chalk Jayhawk. For a pretty poorly played game, we dominated UTEP. Need to get a lot more buttoned up before Big 12 play, though.
  18. Great start for the Big 12, aside from OU. Mizzou really impressed vs Illinois, though it also calls into question how bad UI is. But if Mizzou can keep Gabbert healthy, they'll be dangerous. I still think we'll clown them this year. OSU also looked good. Didn't get to see KU at all, but the score was about where it was supposed to be. Same with Neb. Lol at KSU for squeaking by UMASS.
  19. With the emphasis on sportsmanship, I think smacking a guy's shoulder pad and taunting to his face does merit a 1 game suspension. It certainly needs to be more than a few extra windsprints. Regardless, watching him get dropped like that was extra delicious.
  20. Alabama Boise Illinois Georgia
  21. I saw one video where it's coming in, but it's not quite at beard status. Too bad he can't get that same coverage on top of his head.
  22. I think people are expecting the same jump from 08-09 that they made from 07-08. But it's pretty unlikely. They definitely have a shot at the North, but that's because Missouri is in rebuilding mode and KU has the tough south rotation. Still, they're breaking in a new QB, and Castille got booted from the team. I think they'll struggle to score.
  23. they probably have 2 more 5* guys sitting the bench.
  24. why? they lost a ton of key parts and are breaking in a new QB. I don't think they'll be very good. 3rd tops in the Big XII North. he said he is surprised they are getting as much respect as they are Well damn. I must just like to argue w mizzou fans. I'm making [expletive] up now just to get into debates.
