Week 12 Cobs of the Week: Indiana, Kansas passing, Iowegia, and Obscene T-shirt Vendors
Well, the obvious candidate would be Texas..but we already knew that... So we're looking elsewhere. This week, the candidates are a little harder to find, but we'll press forward because that's what we do here.
Indiana 83 points? I mean, I know that Wisconsin was throwing the ball a bit, even with their reserves...but c'mon. Eighty-three points given up by a Big Ten defense...and it wasn't Kevin Cosgrove's?
T-shirt Vendors outside Memorial Stadium. I've seen you all season and tried to ignore you. First it was the "Horns Down" t-shirts you peddled all September; Peter Bean of BurntOrangeNation thought the world of you. After that worked out so well, now you've got your "Lincoln (obscenity) Nebraska" t-shirts that add two more obscenities on the reverse side. Haven't seen you sell a single one yet, so after the game, you decided that you weren't being shunned, but people just didn't know what you were selling. So then you decided to recite your shirts out loud so that everybody, including all the kids walking by, could understand your brilliance and creativity.
Kansas' passing attack...3/13 for a whopping 15 yards. Pretty pathetic no matter who the defense is.
The state of Iowa. It was clear Iowa State blew it's wad against Nebraska and had nothing left to battle Colorado
(although a sympathy award should go out to QB Austen Arnaud for blowing out his knee and ending his career). Iowa, OTOH, losing to Northwestern again, especially to their defense for giving up a fourth-quarter touchdown drive. Wow, Hawkeyes, what are you playing for in that rivalry? The monopoly piece dog????

I don't thiunk any of us Husker fans....
have a leg to stand on by voting for Texas, or I would have.
83 points is hard not to vote for.
I had to go with the T-shirt vendors.
What absolute jerks! And why are they allowed to shout obsenities with little ones around? Would love to see someone stuff a few of their rags down their throats.
Yeah I went with the vendors too
Although re-reading Bean’s article just makes me seethe at how we didn’t blow Texas out of the stadium, much less lost to them

Those guys are genuine morons. My dad and I walked past them when we went to the Missouri game and my dad said “Wow, things have sure changed around here.” We are supposed to be nice fans from a nice state full of conservative people with family values…and those jerks are ruining our reputation! Someone needs to get them out of there. I hate to bring authority into it, but can the police do anything about shouting obscenities loudly in public? Disturbing the peace perhaps?
I can't vote for someone ruining our reputation as being conservative.
We can be great fans, sure, but do we all have to be conservative? Joking and politics aside, I haven’t seen their shirts but they sound like something made by and for morons.
I voted for Iowa because I’m already primed and ready for the new rivalry to start next year. The added bonus of Iowa State being included was just too good to pass up.

It is possible...
to not be conservative and still possess family values, you know.

Mike pointed out the ultimate – no one buys their shirts.
capitalism rules… if you don’t like the product, don’t buy it!!

Didn't see any of the Iowa State flop
but that would make them the second team this season to let Nebraska beat them twice.
