[MS72]

Thanks, sorry for railing on your team, I was just a tad bit upset. LOL.

[Blaze_1UP]

Yeah it's alright, believe me I've heard it all this season.

Worst game ever

[NFL_WIZARD]

Does anyone else here remember when Nebraska used to hang 76 on Kansas in the 90's?
How funny is that, losing by the same score....I think Kansas is for real tho, they look good.

[Blaze_1UP]

KU is very good, best NU beat them was 63-7 in 96' and 70-0 in 86'.

Joe Ganz looked great, now it's the battle for a bowl.

[Hasbro]

Ganz was aiming for the Buffs too.

[SEC]

well Blaze .......... it just hasn't been a good year. i hadn't noticed you were a huskers fan. you've been a good sport about it too. & i've mouthed about your team on here. not because of you by any means. some fans are overbearing & i have a hard time ignoring such. only reason i ever posted on this board is because of twisted biased cry-baby posts on here bad mouthing the SEC. & some of that was by huskers fans.
but nebraska will be back. just like other teams of the past that have & always will come back to do good. it won't be long b4 nebraska & Bama & the florida state's of this league will take their turn again.
i saw a replay of a bama nebraska game from the early 70's yesterday. that was a good game. bama lost.

Thanks for the support SEC and I agree NU will be back, also thank you CU for putting the Callahan era to an end. Ganz will be back Hasbro just you wait and see, LOL. Good luck in your bowl, Dizon is a beast and I look forward to watching this guy on Sundays.

Pelini Interviews For Nebraska Job; Players Meeting Called For TuesdayLINCOLN, Neb. (KPTM) - Husker players are expected to learn Tuesday afternoon who will lead their team next year.
A player's meeting has been called for 4 p.m. Tuesday afternoon. Steve Ryan with Nebraska Cornhuskers Football, Basketball, and Recruiting Front Page says the meeting has been called to announce a new coach, but not to introduce one.
Bigredreport.com also tells FOX 42 that coach is most likely Bo Pelini, who Tom Osborne interviewed Sunday. Pelini was defensive coordinator at Nebraska in 2003.
Flight logs show that a plane owned by a University of Nebraska booster in Norfolk flew from Baton Rouge to Lincoln on Sunday, then to Atlanta, where an Executive Search firm that reportedly contacted Pelini is based. Tom Osborne returned to Lincoln on that plane Monday night. On his arrival, he would only say that he plans to share details on the coach search when appropriate.
Buffalo spokesman Paul Vecchio tells The Associated Press that Osborne has also been given permission to speak with Head Coach Turner Gill. Vecchio says he didn't know when the two would talk.
Gill was the Huskers' star quarterback in the early 1980s and a longtime assistant coach under Osborne and Frank Solich. He left Nebraska in 2004, after Bill Callahan's first season.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Christmas has come early, thank you Jessus !!!

[Blaze_1UP]

Jim Grobe reportedly makes it at least three who have spoken with NU the other two are Turner Gill and Bo Pelini. No announcement of a decision is expected today. Some names in the rumor mill Brian Kelly, Gary Patterson, Monte Kiffin.

Ahh.... it's pure torture !!!

[Hasbro]

I don't see the name that scared me, Barry Alverez.

[Blaze_1UP]

From what I've read Alverez is happy where he's at and wants no part of it. I would of choose Barry the first time when he wanted the job but Pederson blew that chance.

LINCOLN, Neb. -- Nebraska's search for a new coach has fans obsessed and the media tracking airplanes.
The rumor mill is churning full-speed and reporters are working overtime, staking out airports and using software to monitor the comings and goings of interim athletic director Tom Osborne.
"It's absolutely crazy right now with people tracking airplanes and everybody having a source telling them exactly what's happening," Omaha radio show host Kevin Kugler said. "But unless you're the 70-year-old former football coach who's conducting this search, you really don't know."
Sources told ESPN.com's Pat Forde on Wednesday that Nebraska has narrowed its search to two candidates: Turner Gill, head coach at Buffalo, and Bo Pelini, the defensive coordinator at LSU.
After leaving a Tuesday afternoon meeting with the team, Osborne said he had not offered the job to anyone. Asked when he would name a coach, he said, "Hopefully sooner than later."
He declined to say how many candidates he's interviewed.
Osborne said he didn't address the specifics of the coaching search with the players.
"I told them to go to class," he said.
All that's known for sure is Gill is a candidate. His athletic director, Warde Manuel, has said so. Pelini has been interviewed, according to media reports that all cite unidentified sources.
Then there's Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe. According to The Sporting News and its unidentified source, Grobe spoke informally with Osborne.
Gill, Pelini and Grobe have not returned phone messages from The Associated Press.
Another potential candidate, Navy's Paul Johnson, didn't say yes or no Tuesday when asked whether he's been contacted by Nebraska. He said no comment, adding he wouldn't be answering questions about anything other than the Midshipmen's showdown Saturday against Army.
In the three days since Osborne fired Bill Callahan, speculation about the next coach has been rampant.
Radio talk shows and Internet message boards have, ad nauseam, addressed the merits of Gill and Pelini. Fans have taken particular interest in those two because of their ties to the school.
The media, using information available on the Internet, have had their eyes on the skies. Using Federal Aviation Administration owner registration records and flight tracking software, outlets were able to report that a booster's plane flew Osborne and chancellor Harvey Perlman to Baton Rouge, La., apparently to interview Pelini.
They were also able to report the same plane then flew to Atlanta, where more work on the search was apparently done.
And when that plane flew back to Lincoln on Monday, a horde was on hand to capture video of Osborne and Perlman deplaning.
Osborne jokingly thanked the group of 15 reporters for coming out and greeting him.
"I know you had nothing better to do," he said.
Meanwhile, because NCAA bylaws allow for program-connected officials to recruit in times of a swift coaching change, Osborne is on the road looking for players.
"It's a very unique situation," Tim Cassidy, Nebraska's associate athletic director for football, told the Lincoln Star Journal.
Before embarking on the trip, though, Osborne had to first pass a test.
"He's been a big asset to us in recruiting," Cassidy told the Star Journal.
Information from ESPN.com senior writer Pat Forde and The Associated Press was used in this report.

Pretty sure it'll be Pelini but they'll wait untill after the Tennessee game to announce it.
