I miss any competent running back tbh. We had a great run of them with Helu/Burkhead/Abdullah and since then have had a lot of meh.
Rahmir running against OU reminded me of Ameer against Miami. Dude ran way more physical than I ever thought he could
Too bad they don't make em like they used to... Instead, we are stuck with the likes of Honas and Kolarevic.
- Brook Berringer (saw his first start against Wyoming. Dude was tough as nails and I wish he got that nfl shot. I think his arm and athleticism translates at least to a long-time backup spot.) - Trev Alberts (fucker had 3 sacks against Florida State in the natty with 1 damn arm) - Barron Miles (maybe the best definition of lunch pail guy the team has ever had. Bulldog. Punt blocking specialist) - Lavonte David (this motherfucker overtakes Farley because he had the same instincts and ability and worked his way from JUCO to become a hall-of-famer in the nfl. If he doesn’t make the hall of fame, we riot, glad he is finally getting his due) - LP (the others had a sense of shit both on and off the field…this one is strictly watching play. The most jaw-dropping runner I’ve seen outside 2-3 guys in the nfl) I have favorites before I can remember, but 1992 season on is when I remember most, so that’s what I posted. honorable mention: - Alex Henery - Zac Taylor - Ameer - Suh - Mike Brown
That Colorado come back with Henery’s kick and Suh’s pick 6. Oh boy, probably one of my favorite moments in Memorial.
Shit this goes on my honorable mention list. I maintain he would be the most perfect back since Ahman Green for what Frost wants to run. Good patience with a great foot in the ground and go. He also has excellent hands and was tough through the tackles. He also had 1,147 rushing yards and 5.2 ypc in 2009 when he was literally the only consistent thing we had on offense. He was a stud among a sea of swimming dildos on offense.
No lineman are my favorite because it will always be the ‘pipeline’ which is an all-time great nickname. It’s mind-blowing that they gave up one sack in 2 full seasons. I don’t care if you only throw 15 times a game. Those pass plays were often long-developing. It’s still one of the most absurd stats I’ve ever heard in any sport.
Javario Burkes. Played pickup basketball with him and he was a nice guy. Also saw him do a 360 dunk in a game, which was crazy considering he was like 6'5 and 300lbs. He passed away last year, was only 31.
I feel like it was a fever dream but am I the only one who remembers when Cody Glenn switched to LB and fucking dominated until he got kicked off the team? Or am I putting too much emphasis on his ability to lineback?
1 year playing backer and was drafted in the 5th round. Meanwhile, we have 4+ years of experienced LBs now getting nowhere close to the 5th round
Definitely remember the first game that season, think it was against WMU and he was just flying around making plays. Pretty sure he led the team in tackles that night too.
I seem to have gone mindcrazy but AMart made some fuckin awesome throws last week and I think Nebraska might win and I’m sorry
Come spend a day with me and I’ll bring you back down to reality. We have yet to go out and win a game that matters, and until then, fuck Frost
Waited tables here all through college. Watched the Crouch va Mizzou run on break between double shifts. If a tall blond balding American served you a lobsterita here between 2000-2003, rest assured his eyeballs were injected as frig
Maybe they went belly up on account of all their weedpot delinquent youth staff were pocketing all those delicious, buttery 'blegs on the reg
When I started I couldn't tell a bleg from a blowhole but I left a skilled blegsman. Not a great idea to let a few spent crabshells fall into your little server pocket apron thing as you're clearing a table and then leave said apron in your in the hot hot Nebraska sun during class the next day. It's like Grumpy Old Manning oneself
lose every game please. I have no emotional connection or investment in this team. Every win just introduces more likelihood that we're stuck with this staff another year. Season exists for one reason only and that's to serve as Farts' last
I’m emotionally invested in trying to understand how our best lineman can’t perform his most important duty consistently through a single game in his third year as a starter. It’s a personal problem, I admit.
