TT-NU Game

I've been reading the posts about everybody raving that the season is over. We Lost a game to a team that wanted the win more than we did. We were ranked well above our skill level in the polls. We were not a top 25 program going into the year and that has finally been shown. I don't doubt that there will be ample ass chewing for some time to come, but that is something that needs to be done. Our guys got complacent with their ranking. They thought that TT, ISU, Baylor, and CU would see our migh… Continue

MU-NU 2009 27-12 HUSKERS WIN IN COLUMBIA!!

That my friends, was a game for the Ages. It was ugly beyond compare for 3 quarters of Football. Penalties, Turnovers, Slipping and Sliding all over the field. Bad Passes, Poor blocking, SPECIAL TEAMS PLAY, were highlights of a Soggy night in Columbia. Then... The rain lessened in intensity and the Mighty Husker Defense (soon to carry the beloved Blackshirts) showed the country that THEY ARE as good as advertised. The miscues against VT were a fluke, and that Defense can win championships! I m… Continue

Live From BugahaWest: Kick-off is 4 days away.

Dear Fellow Husker fans, Is the excitement to a boiling level yet? I swear the family here is wanting the season to start more than I do only for the fact that I will calm down a bit and get into a regular groove in terms of work, football, and blogging. This is a time of year where as fans I think the scrimmages/practices only slightly feel a void. Its like I like to say about NFL preseason, it's only pre-season, the only thing that matters is that injury that knocks out the starter for the fi… Continue

Live from BugahaWest: Do you smell that? Yep, it's the smell of football on the horizon

Dear Fellow Husker fans, I know it has been a very long time since I last posted a blog and there is a good reason, summer break. I told you all about my previous perfect storm, well. this perfect storm combines change in local on my job, change of shift, and my kids' summer break. I no longer make the 90 minute drive every day to work, it's now down to 45 minutes. I also was shifted to graves and believe me when I say I have spent most of the summer getting used to graves. And the kids were on… Continue

Live From BugahaWest: The Mizzou and Texas Tech game

Dear Fellow Husker fans, It's like a Texas two step this year, one step forward, two steps backwards. After the Mizzou meltdown a couple weeks back I was just in shock. I couldn't believe that this team could lay that kind of egg. I didn't get to watch the game, but the stats told it all, boy it was ugly. Now this past week, I feel overall the team may have played its best game. Yes, there was a blown coverage on 4th down. Defensively you have to be ready for the snap, even when the other team… Continue

New Mexico State

We watched a hell of an effort by the Defense. They are already at 1/2 of the sack total from last season, 3 games in. We lost another D-end, but with any luck he'll be back next week. There really wasn't much of a drop off anyway. The guys are moving well and actually tackled well this week. I think that the week off will help, Bo will be all over them on pass coverage. We are still getting way too many interference calls. I'd bet that that will be a key point in the next 2 weeks. The offense… Continue

San Jose State

I finally got my wife (a die hard Sooner Fan) to go to a home game at Memorial Field. I've been telling her that it is like nothing she will ever experience again. We went (She even wore crimson and cream Husker gear) and she had a BLAST! As soon as we got home, she was online trying to find tickets to the VT game and other home games. I think I may have converted her. Took 8 years, but I might have it done finally! The game scared me silly in the first half. We had a decent lead, but look at t… Continue

What If Drinking Was Allowed in Memorial Stadium?

Have you ever thought of this? Saw this video and got my mind wondering..... I know a lot of the college kids come to the game already primed up a little bit, but what if the whole stadium was feeling a little bit happier due to some barley pops?!! In this video you'll see some proof of what some unsupervised drinking can do for you. And yes, these girls are hot. I know things were a lot more liberal and free-wheeling in the 60s and 70s - was there ever drinking allowed in the stadium? A… Continue

Live from BugahaWest, my Nebraska football blog

Dear Fellow Husker Fans, As I sit here pondering what to say on my first blog entry here I recall something I heard or read and it goes like this. "Every story has a beginning, for without a beginning there can be no end." So with that in mind I will say this, this first entry could and may very well be part history lesson, part insight, part tangents headed who knows where, and part just me doing what I love to do, that is write. First off, I figure the one question people would ask is why th… Continue

Spring Game wrapup

What a beautiful day in Huskerland in what was probably the most anticipated game in years. The Red guys against the White guys. The stadium was packed for the first time in team history for a Spring "Practice". The feelings in the stands when the team came out to do pregame drills was crazy. It was a dawn of a new era, with new players in the mix, which made it a lot of fun. Watching Adi Kunalic kicking field goals from 40+ yards through the uprights and over the net was incredible. Watching D… Continue

Paterno Too Old To Coach?

Just finished a great article on Penn State coach, JoePa here. Dang, 81 years old is pretty old!

Did you know he still watches football tapes, not DVDs? He says that if something is working for him, why change it. It's a pretty good read. He's an icon to the Nittany Lions, just like Dr. Tom is for us Cornhuskers.… Continue

NE Patriots Got a Gift!

These last few days of sports radio there has been a lot of talk about the new NFL schedules for the 2008-2009 season. I can't wait for the college season to start, but I'm getting excited about the NFL season as well! Simply put, the Patriots got a gift with their opponents in the upcoming season. Roughly only a third of their opponents had winning records this past season. You can get the ful… Continue
