Husk City: What is happening?

Nice athlete that played out of control with no shot. We lost 17 fucking straight to close the season. I mean, whatever.

 

Feels like 12 here

 

55 in Western Iowa. Keep that cold front, please

 

Probably say the same thing about Mrs. Dantes. Yes, you're missing out.

 

I've developed a taste for bourbon and scotch. My life just got exponentially more expensive.

 

My go to scotch is Glenfiddich or Glenlivet.

I tried Longbranch, Matthew McConaughey’s bourbon, recently and it was pretty damn good. Bottle did not last long.

 

In lieu of reading about coronavirus all night every night, I've started rewatching reg season Husk games from 99-00. Several takeaways:

1. This was the era of having lumpy runningbacks that did not pick up their feet when they ran, and they specialized in taking an option pitch and falling over for 19 yards then smacking the turf out of frustration that if they just had knees instead of their femurs inserting into their ankles directly, they probably would have gone the disstance

2. How fucking obvious was it that Frank was a dogshit coach? Very. Christ, these teams were pretty well stoked, and it's embarrassing how dependent we were on the big play. Wouldn't ya know, it's hard to stay on schedule with an offense that goes dive-->option-->put up a duck to Trent Winstroms on 3rd and 13. Then every once and a while Crouch would run away from everybody on the field and we'd forgive how fucking inept our dogshit offense was.

3. Defense was definitely warming up to CU 2001 for the better part of 2000. Depth was already starting to fizzle

4. God we looked cool.

5. Crouch was delusional AF thinking he deserved a shot at QB in the NFL. What a terrific athlete and turd QB

6. Teams started hanging around in games against us in 2000. Even bad ones. Any opposing coach worth a shit knew how to keep our offense perpetually behind schedule. Oh no! What if John Gibson get's behind the secondary!

7. Vandenbosch and Kelsay

 

8. Can't imagine a bigger indictment of the NFL than that Sage Rosenfels had a long and relatively successful career there

 

I'm still very green. Japanese whiskey was gateway.

Polished off a bottle of Basil Hayden's with the quickness last week. Enjoyed the bottle of Eagle Rare I took back east last September as well.

 

The offense under solich was crazy predictable. The amount of times I’d say option into the boundary only for it to happen is crazy...I like to watch games with one or two people, have it incredibly quiet and I’ll every now and then try and predict what’s going to happen.

 

Out of seeming annoying and desperate, can I request a live stream of Pinkcrynasty announcing these games?

Because all of these points I would love to witness live. Especially with the narration of a legend. This is sarcasm and seriousness all in one. Seriously, I would like this.

Edit: Love this, I would love this right now.

 

The boundary option at Penn State’s 40-7 victory was a debacle. I was around 9-12 years old during those times and could predict most of the calls. Solich makes Ron Zook look like a good HBC

 

2002 had the woat jerseys. The giant red stripe was awful.

 

I remember when Matt Herian was gonna be a senior we’d win the natty again

 

RIP to Herian’s leg. Loved him in the NCAA games back in the day.

 

I can barely remember watching top 10 teams and having the reasonable thought that we'd beat the shit out of those teams

 

I saw Frank Solich and Mrs Solich at Arby’s once.

 

Also, while our team looked dope in those 99-00 unis, people in general looked horrible during that time

 

*tim

 

A buddy of mine played against him when he was in HS and he said they pretty much fed him the ball and they'd win.

side note: if you google just "matt herian" the autofill adds in "nebraska was he good"

 

Pitt transfer. Will sit out a year. Yuge get.

 

Vs. Tennessee Fiesta Bowl '99

1. One of the biggest reasons our teams have struggled this millennium is that we no longer have a guy yelling "HANDS!" from the crowd every single play.

"Hands! HANDS! Watch those HANDS!" -- on a punt

2. Willie Miller kiestering UT defense is the pinnacle of my childhood

3. Color commentator callin the shit out of these punts. "Line runner." "Tail-wagger." "Side bender."

4. Also every incomplete pass in the 90s was "allllllllllllll-most intercepted"

 

The John Levorson of his tim

 

I would totally watch this on twitch

 

As an alum of a primary Pierce High School rival I can confirm. Dude was insane

 

Alright maybe I'll find a way to let you guys watch me hang out with myself

 

The standard for what qualifies as entertainment is in sharp decline these days

 

The other thing to do would be to set a tim to youtube up a random old Husk game from the 90s and Husk like we do for real games complete with bad takes from DTO

 

Yes let's start with the games where we and #Colorado Buffaloes fans trade haymakers making fun of dead kids

 

I'd say let's start there. That's a good call

 

Huskerwiz definitely making millions for his interweb content on twitch.

 

I got some real extensive and deep butt rock comps on plug.dj if you guys ever wanna elevate to my plane of butt consciousness too.

 

90s was Fuck Us getting us marinated for what was coming

 

This feels like the Owa or Andrus Peat of the 2021 class.

 

How in the hell are we even going to recruit him?

 

I’ve also been watching a ton of 90s games. Mostly the 93, 94, and 95 seasons so far. So many bad mother fuckers on the field.

Definitely going to watch 96 ASU game at some point.

 

Got dam does Keith get my blood flowin'

 

the voices, the intro songs, the uniforms. Everything.

Edit: minus Nebraska shooting up their players. That was not awesome.
