Gee, why does this picture garner so much attention? I don't know, but I do know that I'd like to see LSU beat Alabama today.

This is your thread for discussing today's game. Nebraska fans have quite a while before the big game tonight, so there's plenty of time to discuss today's games.

It's beautiful weather, ain't it? I suspect that many of us will be spending today getting ready for winter. I know I have some work to do outside, and I'm guessing you guys who drive combines are going to be in them most of the day or face losing crops.

KU trying to do an NU

They keep turning the ball over and helping KSU

KU 7 KSU 3 with a Reesing turnover giving the ball to KSU at the 10

Wasn’t ever mean to last, but they don’t deserve to drop much after what they’ve accomplished so far.

KU should be embarrassed

No heart what so ever in that game.
Reesing played like crap.

I’m not scared of either one of these teams after watching this game.

Can someone tell everyone that NU can still win the North by beating KU, KSU, and CU?

NU still controls their title hopes

even if KSU beats MU.

NU can do it.

have you seen anything in the last three weeks that makes you think we can actually do that?

I’ve got a news flash for you, Kansas and Kansas State aren’t scared of us either. We’ve looked incredibly unimpressive in every game against a team not playing in the Sun Belt.

They should be

With our defense all we need is an average offense and we’d kill everyone left in the North. I’m looking for a big second game jump from Green and then boom big profit.

The OU game means little to nothing. Win out through the B12 North and take the North.

unfortunately, our offense has been abysmal

expecting an average offense right now is asking for more than they’ve shown.

I understand for some, being a fan means strapping on the blinders, but after losing to Iowa State, and looking like we did against a bad baylor team last week, how anyone can say we’re going to “kill everyone left in the North” is beyond me.
