You thought the Husker Nation was fired up last week? That doesn't hold a candle to the buzz around this week's game with Ball State.
Come on people. It's BALL FREAKIN' STATE! The power house from Muncie is coming to town Saturday. It's time to Husker Up!
Embrace Your Fear
Somewhere in the back of your mind you're afraid that Ball State could be our Appalachian State, right? As Ricky Bobby's pappy likes to say, you need to embrace your fear.
You need to learn to drive with the fear, and there ain't nothin' more frightening than driving with a live cougar in the car.
Highlight Reel
There weren't many highlights from last week's loss to USC. But this hit by Quentin Castille should get some adrenaline flowing.
Boom Goes the Dynamite!
Of course no reference to Ball State would be complete without this video of the most famous amateur sportscaster on the internets.
Alright. Cue the band. Let's take care of business Saturday.

nebgirl,
Where have YOU been? You keep doing your disappearing act! Hey, check this out: theindependent.com/blogs/The Huskers/Big Red Penguin. 'I'm ze bop'.
Also did my 'Britney Spears Fan' impersonation rgdg. COZ on the 'firecoz' thread. Some cool stuff over there!
Don't be a strang-ah!

WOW!! Hey, something's gotta give, and I mean soon! The yards per play have steadily gone up since game one. My SOONERS are licking their chops in hopes of playing you guys, although,I'm sure we won't get the opportunity at this rate. Cozgrove has to go. It is a situation that really sucks because you (NU) are winning (but ugly) and everyone's just as pissed as if you had lost. It's like you couldn't be any more upset if you had lost. Good Luck cause you guys are finding out about the mediocrity I've been telling you about. Allowing 600 yrds of offense? Tonight I heard about upsets,of the day (on ESPN), and Nebraska was talked about in the same breath with Louisville, and you guys won! You probably would be better off to take the "BLACKSHIRTS" and put them into storage until Cozgrove is gone or when you don't allow 600 yrds of offense. Which ever comes first. Go with something like a beige or fusia. What's next, do they mention Nebraska with the likes of Baylor?

OU7times, I agree the blackshirts should be mothballed in storage. As far as replacement colors for the short term, I could definitely see merit in your recommendation of fusia as a choice. But I'm kind of leaning towards chartreuse, in a pastel hue.

postgame poesy:
I had a dream
That I was Martin Luther King
And all was good with social relations.
Bob Stoops, Bo P, and Norm Chow,
Had taken over Big Red somehow.
And order was restored across
Husker Nation.
....and then I awoke to THIS nightmare....

O.K., LISTEN UP CORN HEADS!
We've got to start planning our next move considering worse case scenarios; i.e., this season goes totally down the sh*&%tter!
I've been thinking for a year or so now who might be a stellar successor in the dire circumstances that might necessitate a head coaching change at NE. And the winner is:
BRIAN KELLY, BRIAN KELLY, BRIAN KELLY!(Cinci.)
Yes, yes, there IS a god!
