    Is Iowa State a 2nd Class Citizen?

    Nebraska drives ratings numbers. Their bowl games and their Thursday night ESPN game agains Missouri have drawn huge numbers for the time slots and station they are on. I've tried to look up the numbers somewhere, but can't find them. I just know the journalstar always has a little blurb after...

    Is Iowa State a 2nd Class Citizen?

    Funny, I haven't met an Iowa State fan outside of Iowa:jimlad: There are Nebraska season ticket holders in every state except Rhode Island.

    Big 10 invites out?

    Because if they would have said "out" that report would have surfaced and that would have blown the seal off everything. They probably want to make the announcement together with the Big 10 conference.

    Is Iowa State a 2nd Class Citizen?

    The numbers reported are from the last year of the Bill Callahan/Steve Pederson era. Many of Nebraska's boosters were essentially boycotting to force those two out. Since Osborne has been brought in as AD and Pelini as HC the contributions have increased by a ton. I believe Nebraska was 3rd in...

    Big 10 invites out?

    I have another friend who is a sports writer for the OWH. He openly admits he has no inside information, but his opinion is that there is no way Osborne and Perlman would have let this much smoke develop if they weren't certain of their future. Again, just his opinion, not based on fact at all.

    Big 10 invites out?

    I heard the same think last night from a friend of mine in Lincoln. He has had reliable info in the past. However, I'm taking it with a grain of salt at this point. There have been so many different people with "inside information" I don't know what to believe any more.

    Steve Sipple's Monday Afternoon Take On Nebraska And Realignment

    That is his biggest problem. He is a master of writing an entire article without making one single point.

    Steve Sipple's Monday Afternoon Take On Nebraska And Realignment

    Curious who you think the best Nebraska journalists are. In my opinion the top three are easily McKeown, Barknecht, and Chatelain.

    Steve Sipple's Monday Afternoon Take On Nebraska And Realignment

    I can't stand Sipple. Not because he is anti-Nebraska or pro-Nebraska, but because he never reports anything of substance. Ever. He is the most wishy washy journalist I have ever seen.

    Big 12 - CycloneFanatic.com for each school?

    huskersillustrated.com (has a free board) and huskermax.com are the two that I visit the most. You have to have a membership to post on huskermax, but there is a ton of information on the site including links to pretty much every article that deals with Nebraska.

    Big 10 Expansion Notes

    Next time I will be sure to use one of the little smiley faces. I know sarcasm doesn't quite come across very well on message boards.

    Ubben: PAC 10 gives Big 12 leverage

    I'm not naive enough to think Nebraska is more powerful than Texas, and I agree with you 100% that any conference would take Texas over pretty much any school in the country except for maybe Notre Dame. Texas wants the Big 12 to stay exactly how it is. I don't think they would really care if...

    Big 10 Expansion Notes

    It's because of people like you two why I almost didn't bother making a joke and was close to deleting the post in the first place. Relax and read the entire post before freaking out.

    Relax a little. Did you read the paragraph right after that?

    Ubben: PAC 10 gives Big 12 leverage

    That to me says that Texas, OU, etc...are just grandstanding with this offer to the Pac 10. They are trying to create leverage out of a situation in which they have none.

    Ubben: PAC 10 gives Big 12 leverage

    That could be. However, many of the national and regional writers are saying Nebraska is the one holding the cards. At this point I just want this whole thing to be over with and have everyone move on. There are so many contradicting reports out there right now it is hard to know who to believe...

    Big 10 Expansion Notes

    They are just beginning to break ground. It is going to be located in the old state fair grounds (Nebraska state fair just moved to Grand Island basically because the city of Lincoln and UNL kicked them out so they could build the innovation campus). Bottom line is this is a living, breathing...

    Big 10 Expansion Notes

    I'm wondering if that statement was aimed at Texas Tech. When the emails back and forth from Delaney and the Ohio State President surfaced they said they had "a Tech problem." I think one option on the table was the Big 10 really wanting Texas, but Texas insisting that Texas A&M and Texas...

    Ubben: PAC 10 gives Big 12 leverage

    I enjoy reading David Ubben's blog on ESPN, but I lost a lot of respect for him when I heard him interviewed on an Omaha radio station Friday. His love for Dan Beebe was almost comical. It was almost like he was making a paid political statement for him. I also realized he has zero inside...

    Big 10 Expansion Notes

    I love how a lot of you ISU fans use this US News ranking as the end all be all (You are barely ahead of Nebraska), then you make a statement like the one above about "in the academic world the University of Missouri is held in much higher esteem than Nebraska." Well, I'm pretty sure that "in...
