If not, he has not progressed much mentally after that age. Please note his avatar and signature... he idolaizes a fictional character from batman.

You're showing your true colors.

Mizzou is the new kid on the block. Tigers' fans are like a kid getting yelled at by his mom. They don't want to hear it, but they understand it. It's OK because they learn from it.

All the smack is fair. You give a little and get a little. I don't mind being outnumbered. Hopefully we can all move on now.

Yes. It's dumb. Quit starting it. We'll move on as soon as you decide to. Actually, though, I'm wondering what kind of thread you'll be starting next week.

I moved on several posts ago. So can you.

It goes without saying what you're up against next week.

I liked Sam Hall better when he had a Johnny Cash avatar.

Only if she's naked.

OK, but she's an absolute babe no matter what.

During the past seven seasons, 63 of the 65 BCS conference teams have beaten a team ranked higher than 20th in the AP poll. Indiana and Syracuse have done it. Iowa State and Washington State have done it. Stanford, Vanderbilt and even Baylor have done it. Just two teams have not.

One of them is the Duke Blue Devils, and that should come as no surprise to anyone who has followed college football at any point in the past 70 years. But the other? Oh, the other is a whole different story altogether. That second team is the mighty Nebraska Cornhuskers, a program that is steeped in tradition and ruled most of the 1990s with an iron fist. Unless you're a faithful reader of the Omaha World-Herald, it's unlikely you guessed that one.

But it's true. Since beating old rival Oklahoma in a No. 2 vs. No. 3 showdown in October 2001, Nebraska's highest-ranked victim has been No. 20 Michigan in the 2005 Alamo Bowl. So, starting with a 62-36 wipeout at the hands of Colorado on Thanksgiving weekend seven years ago, the Huskers are 0-19 against the top 19. Let that one sink in for a second: Nebraska and Duke are the only two major conference teams that can't beat a team ranked higher than 20th.

Some (Oregon and Colorado fans come to mind) might argue that karma is coming back to get the Huskers after they sneaked into the 2001 national title game even though they didn't reach the Big 12 title game. Whatever the case may be, the streak -- one that spans the tenures of three different head coaches -- is no fluke. Saturday's close loss at Texas Tech was more the exception than the rule. In those 19 losses, the average score has been 37-19.

Saw that article the other day, I didn't need it to tell me that we've been pathetic the last six years. Christ, I think karma has made it's ****ing point already.

I think it will take four years to have an idea where Pelini's rebuild is going. Pelini was asked during a conference call about how much talent he inherited. The phone line went silent. They're winning when they should and losing when they should. It will be that way for a couple years. The conference is loaded.

There's really no excuse for Saturday's loss, the game was practically handed to us with the missed XP in OT, and we couldn't close the deal. Just like with UT in '06 and TTU in '05. I don't get it.

I'm not piling on here, but I have a few thoughts on the game. OK ST is a very good team, and had it together that game. I was very unimpressed by Chase Daniel, I thought his last two picks were terrible terrible throws. I was expecting a Heisman clip from the last drive when he had the game in his hands, and he choked. I thought Mizzou abandoned the run a little early. Very good game for OK St, I left very unimpressed with Mizzou, a team that I thought would be in the National Championship game. I think Mizzou is gonna be in for a long long game against Texas, who shocked me.
