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 Blackshirts turn Clemson purple to black and blue

Dear Fellow Husker Fans, We have all seen or listened to the game. It was the final chapter in the book know as 2008 The First Year of the Pelini Era. This fine book had many chapters, some good and some not so good. But before I get into that, let's just take a quick look at the numbers that stood out from the final chapter. 4: Total yards rushing that Clemson had. I have said it before, that is tough to do in the video game realm let alone the real game. Good job Blackshirts. 10: As in ten… Continue

Live from BugahaWest: The Bye Week

Dear Fellow Husker fans, This week has been full of pent up emotional build-up waiting to be let go on Sept 27th. Personally speaking I am glad the week has gone fast so far and I am more than ready to roll on Saturday. This game is the biggest game we have seen in a very long time (I am not counting USC last year). I have a feeling this one will live up to all the hype and before we get too worked up, I want to take a step back and speak on a few things. #1. The talk has been a bit on whether… Continue

Live from BugahaWest: Week 2, Week 3, Tidbits from my vacation to Nebraska

Dear Fellow Husker Fans, Greetings everybody and the Big Red machine has done exactly what they were supposed to do on paper, go into Sept 27th with a 3-0 record. Under the surface however, some stuff has to be changed, most glaring is the fact the defense has not lived up to its potential as of yet. Before I get into that however, let's look into the last two weeks and some other things. Week 2 vs SJSU: The final score on this one was 35-12 and to say I was nervous is a understatement. Do you… Continue

Live from BugahaWest: 9 Days till kick-off

Dear Fellow Husker Fans, The countdown clock has ticked to under 10 days which makes it official, you can start counting down hours. Anyways, as I searched a read a bit, not much really caught my eye, it seems like everybody is getting their last lick in as to how Nebraska will do, how the Big 12 will turn out, and why Oklahoma is in a class all by itself in the Big 12. That last fact makes me wonder, how then is Georgia the choice of all the pollsters? What does Georgia have that OU doesn't ha… Continue

Live from BugahaWest: 20 days till kick-off, Rivalries and tidbits

Dear Fellow Husker Fans Two-a-days have arrived and that can only mean one thing, footballs will be flying and the scores will count really soon. From what I have been reading, the word is out look out for our halfbacks this year and I tend to have to agree. I think Watson will be allowing this team to run the ball more. Yes, Ganz is a good quarterback, but I am sure Watson doesn't want to put him in a position where he has to make a play in order for us to win each week. Let him get the ball i… Continue

No Huskers Taken in First Two Rounds of NFL Draft

In case anyone was wondering, no Nebraska football players were taken in the first two rounds of the 2008 nfl draft. Rounds 3-7 are tomorrow (Sunday), so hopefully some will get taken then! Here's a list of the players drafted to the NFL (minus Nebraska and Iowa players!) here. As a side note, some website names I pondered of naming this site back when it was just a twinkle in my eye:)… Continue

Pennsylvanian Shawn Bodtmann (LB) Commits To Nebraska

Quick stats on this kid: he can bench-press 225 pounds 12 times, run the 40 in 4.62 seconds, and he sings in the choir. Quite an all around individual! He'll probably play as a WILL linebacker.

After attending the spring game he was quoted as saying, "The tradition and pride in that program is mind blowing". Well, thanks Shawn Bodtmann! Glad to h… Continue

College Football is Different Because...

Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of both NFL and college football, but college football just seems a little more special to me. I'm sure other Husker fans would agree with me! Since our nearest pro team is the Chiefs (or Broncos for some), we've probably been a little conditioned to lean towards the Skerz. That's all we got! Here's a great article on the difference between college and pro fo… Continue

Nebraska Men lose to Kansas

Well, just got done watching the Nebraska men's basketball team lose to Kansas for the third time this season. I'm sure everyone thought that we were going to get blown out by twenty plus points, similar to the first two times we played KU. This time was different! I didn't tune into the game until after the tip off, but watched from about 12 minutes left in the first half until the final buzzer. FIrst off, I couldn't believe that we were leading at half-time! Our defense was play… Continue
