PrintThe first big game of the North Division kicks off in 10 minutes on ESPN. Interesting match up featuring two first-year quarterbacks and what looks like a hell of a lot of rain. Could be a sloppy one.

Bowden
Espn refuses to ackknowledge the real reason pressure has been exerted on bowden. They spend 10 minutes defending him and what he did last decade and they made it an age issue. Well here is a thought….maybe he’s taking heat because, I don’t know…he has not won in a decade!
Something tells me they would care that he’s 80 if he’s still winning like Paterno. And no mark may, he’s not bigger than the program. Yes he built it and yes he deserves his statue but he should also admit he’s damaging the very thing he built by staying AND NOT WINNING.
Your tongue can't repel flavor of that magnitude!!

Just checked the weather for Columbia
already had 4-6 inches
Agree
This ain’t gonna help the conference perception either.

right about that
Like Mack says, survive and move on.
cards just gagged away Game 2 of their playoff series to Dodgers
Two runs with two outs in the last of the ninth. 3-2.
my ankle hurts after seeing that tackle
3/19/2009 - Dogus Balbay Made a Three-Pointer. Never Forget.
off-topic: i noticed the ufl started up tonight
no longhorns thankfully but a handful of sooners are playing for their mobile home payment including teddy lehman.

I'll give it to him
Blaine has a cannon. Not Mallet-like, but strong none the less
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
A ST gift from Nebraska
but Mizz kills themself with penalties and drive stalls. 0-0, start of 2nd quarter. Its great getting to watch the best Defense in College Football—Rain.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
Both teams going backwards
it will interesting to see the yardage for the 1st quarter
We dont play the Corn this year
We should be pulling for Mizzou for SOS, but of course who you choose to root for is your own perogative.
Me personally i’m rooting for Mizz, because I’m a fan of Sean Witherspoon. GREAT kid
Safety Mizz. MU 2 – NU 0
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
Mizzou is use to getting beat twice by a team though...
They have no problem getting their butt kicked multiple times.
Wow
Pelini just Bob Stoops’d his long snapper. Cant blame him though. That was the 2nd poor snap on a punt.
Nebraska Special Teams has been abysmal tonite.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
Add another poor job by the NEB's special teams.
Got lucky though and retained possession.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
helmets falling off
why don’t the coaches make the players wear their helmets with sufficient tightness to prevent helmets flying all over the field? This problem appears to be getting worse
I realize the Mizzou o-line is dealing with some extreme weather conditions, but they don’t look too good, period. Gabbert may be in a couple of very long games…especially Texas.
I would hope so
But still Washington seems to find some decent lanes to run in. Of course we handled him well last year. Suh is sick.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
Neither team
eclipsed past 50 total yards on offense in the first quarter. The rain is a beast.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
OOOOHHHH!
What a hit! Simmons just destroyed that Neb RB
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
team colored star wars characters in the stands
saw a Mizzou colored storm trooper in the stands. The other week I saw a white darth vader at happy valley. We need a burnt orange yoda in our stands
When we're there in a few weeks
We’ll have 11 storm troopers on the field.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
He's trying to cover something up...
He’ll probably end up destroying that program like Hart Lee Dykes.
Craig James's reaction
“He was drivin’ a Porsche? WTF? Why didn’t I get a Porsche?”
You can always tell when you're watching Big 12 North football
Is has a particular feel to it.
You ain't hurt.
What the hell
I go outside to get some fresh air and Nebraska was drivingn when I left. What happened?
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
UFL and Versus executive are giving each other high fives right now. nt
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
By the way
Anyone watching the UFL….are both teams wearing the same uni’s?
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
Mizz has a chance
great return but negated by penatly. 48 secs left in 1st half.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
What happened to the Mizzou QB?
Just tuned in and he looks like he’s limping. Nice throw, though.
In-VINCE-able.
Ouch.
that’s not good. He’s a good scrambler, depends on it. I saw him playing Nevada and he kept getting away and nailing receivers.
In-VINCE-able.

Tough tackle by Suh
Wrapped his ankle under the 300+ lb NT
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
Just started watching
Gabbert looks like he can’t plant on his right leg at all.
the man, the myth, the legend.
Sounds like Madden.
“The one who scores the most wins!”
In-VINCE-able.

Suh is a stud but I wonder if he's big enough to play inside in the NFL
the man, the myth, the legend.
Not in this weather.
Field goals might win this.
In-VINCE-able.

Mizz prolly going to settle for FG
Most likely to go up 5-0 at half. What a great Big 12 score.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
Wow. Risky call.
But it worked out for him. I wouldn’t have done that.
Only the tip of the ball had to be even with the front of the end zone...
I think he got it.
the man, the myth, the legend.
ESPN
Why aren’t they showing a slow mo replay from the side again?
A higher-ranked Mizzou is good for us, right?
We play them soon this year, am I right?
In-VINCE-able.
Wow
Lee: 8-21 for 76 yards
Gabbert: 12-23 for 107 yards.
Tough game offensively. Rain shutting the passing game down.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
LSU is crying right now.
Like the Madden curse, if Doctor Lou gives you the pep talk, you’re almost guaranteed to lose.
In-VINCE-able.

Have a few paper towels handy
Wipe off the slobber from your Tv screen.

Lou is a fucking moron. Of course you change the game plan. After a bad concussion like that one, he’s much more prone to further brain injury for quite a while.
Changing to a running game less dependent on the FB-in-a-QB body also makes the transition to Brantley easier if Tebow is lost for the year.
when colt got concussed in 2007
during the A&M game, do I remember correctly that we weren’t sure if he would even play in the bowl game which was a full month after that? I think Tebow and Urb both know he isn’t playing against LSU.
rain games.
Somebody with a sharp memory: When was the last time Horns played in weather like this? Not counting Iowa State (2006, I think) and C. Florida in 2007, when there were long weather/lightning delays.
Wasnt it Mizzou in like 1998?
at home? Cant remember that well. Crown is getting to me. Shot for every inept offensive play = fun
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
Mizzou at DKR in 1996. 1st Big XII game in a monsoon and fans rushed the field and slid all over it...
1st Big XII game in a monsoon and fans rushed the field and slid all over it…
It's all about the homefield in these weekday games.
Then you add in the weather? Forget about it. Just no reason for the visitors to even play.
In-VINCE-able.
So maybe Virginia Tech
ain’t all that. Nebraska played them even on the road. And Nebraska looks like dog crap.
Virginia Tech
is not that great. ACC is not that great.
9 points should be good enough.
They’re going to run all day anyway, both teams. Each possession is going to take 3-4 minutes each.
In-VINCE-able.
That penalty is bullshit
Kept his head up through the whole tackle.
Looked like a perfect form tackle to me too. That rule sucks.
It should only be if you lead with the helmet. They need to change that rule.
Nebraska should just do a hell mary every play...
Just throw it 50 years up for grabs. If its intercepted then its like a punt. If you catch it, you actually have a chance to score.
I gotta stop taking shots for every poor play
I have to work early in the morning. Shots of water from now on. My God, this is such an abortion of a game.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
Mizz still not at 200 yards total
ALOT of flags in this game. Refs calling holding like the SEC.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
I hope something changes this score quickly.
Bad memories of another poorly played game on the offensive side of the ball.
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
I think it's about to change
that dude Suh at it again

Aight, I'm crashing
This game is too much for me. AMF!
Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
2-pt tries too early, happens alot
if nebraska would’ve taken the extra point on their last touchdown, they’d be up by 2 scores. Since they didn’t now they’re only up by one.
true,
given the conditions of the game it may have been a wise call. But like you said, not from 10 yards out!
Let’s see if the Mizz has a comeback in them
haha
earlier tonight they were showcasing their ‘lose a fumble’ and ‘throw an interception’ packages. Guaranteed to keep defenders off guard.

I hear the bad weather is headed south.
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. If they get mad, you're a mile away AND you have their shoes.
