Morning Coffee - Tidbits
Nebraska volleyball dropped to #2 after being swept (crushed) by the Texas Longhorns this past week. Penn State moved into the #1 spot while Texas moved to #3.
Interesting thing is, Penn State got only one more first place vote (26) than Nebraska (25), and total points were very close, so obviously people recognize that it was only one game in Austin. Of course, losing one game from here on out can be goal-crushing.
KSU dudes Bring On the Cats has a rundown on Big 12 North scenarios. They conclude:
So we're pinning our hopes on Nebraska and Iowa State. God help us.
We should just beat them next week and put them out of their misery. It's the humane thing to do.
Grunting helps you lift better. You figured that someone would do a study on this, didn't you?
Hey Bill Callahan! At least Nebraska fans aren't planning on putting up a great big billboard urging your firing!
Hmmmm. Maybe we should?
SMQ had a good rant going about television coverage of college games. This all started because the Arizona State-Oregon game was not originally slated to be on television.
Coverage is a pain in the butt for me, although I'm guessing it's better than most of y'all. I live in Big 10 land. It's not so much that I don't get to see Nebraska games because I do, but I'd rather be able to watch all the Big 12 games. Dish Network's sports package (that gives you all the Fox channels, not just the regional) is a huge help for not that much more in cost.
What do you guys do for football coverage?

Winning out
I probably should have added to that:

If it makes you feel better
the PSU coach still voted Nebraska #1 and said he believes they are still the best Volleyball team in the Nation.

TX looked pretty damn good,
But I couldn't tell if it was them or a letdown by NE. NE was outta sink, but TX sort of made them so by playing big time ball; I mean, Destiny Hooker was unstoppable and some of their D blocks and returns were off the charts.
I think this will provide NE with some incentive and we'll see what they're made of this year.
Larson doesn't seem to be playing as strongly this year, I'm wondering if it's because more sets are going to Houghtelling?

football coverage
I also live in Big 10 land, although its especially horrible because I live an hour away from Columbus, OH. If I have to hear another Buckeye fan yell O-H only to hear 10 more retort I-O one more time I am going to scream. Anyways, I usually go to a chain sports bar (like Buffalo Wild Wings) to catch the games. I have never had a problem. I even caught Nebraska-Nevada in Ann Arbor after the Stink Weasels lost to Appy State. I hate to say it, but of all the teams left, I hope Kansas wins the Big 12 North title, even after the Big Red crush their undefeated season on Saturday.
