I just find it really stupid that they made this whole West Towne Pub juke box selection of the week and wasn't this like the 2nd or 3rd time for Sweet Caroline? Just getting a little obnoxious...

Look at it like an election in old Iraq.

Yeah, im pretty sure it was established that the 'votes' go nowhere. Itll be sweet caroline if we're ahead, and dont stop believin if we're behind.

Back from the game
-Great job by the coaches in regards to game prep & adjustments, and by the players for their execution. Baylor's roster is superior to ISU's, they have collected a lot of good athletes...but ISU had better football players tonight.
-Once Tiller gets better at the reads, he will be a force in the spread option. We need to get him and AA on the field together more often.
-I like that we did some stunting with the Dline. It worked pretty well (but Baylor's QB is no Reesing). It seems like they (Dline) are still learning how to be pass rushers...not a lot of spin-moves, swim moves or beating the OL with hands, just bull and edge rushing.
-Lenz is a surprise. He has some wiggle.
-Some young guys on D got to see some time. Lattimer, Klein, and Knott look like they could grow into a nice group next year. They all move pretty well.

Maybe the voting for the song is an online poll!?

One of the positives I saw tonight was how well we did on 3rd downs and some of the throws AA made. Especially to Marquis. Man that was great to see. Great thrown balls and great catches when we really need them. Haven't seen that too often.

Ok honest to God, didn't know that at all....

thanks larson I feel like a ******* now...

Wow!
The Huskers are in deep trouble. We are only 3 plays away from being undefeated. A bad bounce on the onside against Iowa, a lousy interference call against K-State and a whiff of wind against Kansas.

Idk man, that was REALLY early in the game, idk if that necessarily decided the game as much as the other 2 games but I do agree that we are extremely close to having a GREAT record but unfortunately we don't get wins for being close...

I think Sweet Caroline is now tradition. And there's no reason it shouldn't be. Just watch the student section during the song...they are having a great time.

BTW, I thing we're two plays from being 5-1. No way ISU was going to win that iowa game with how bad Arnaud was playing.

Please. It is not tradition. Its a lame, slow song that shouldn't be played at any football stadium in this country.

Fortunately, it is a fad that will soon pass. And soon cannot get here quickly enough.

**CyStorm** · 10-18-2009, 12:11 AM

Hey Chris, your prediction was pretty darn good at 31-17. Same deficit. One touchdown too high, but hey, not bad.

**CYKID** · 10-18-2009, 08:22 AM

How about the fans doing the wave and a pretty good one at that? It was awesome to see the crowd loosen up with the victory a certainty. The students also had a towel fight in the fourth quarter that made it look like a blizzard. This was the most fun I have had at the stadium in a long time.
