Anything goes, have at it.
Beavgopher — feel free to invite Nebraska fans to the thread. I’d love to hear their thoughts as that game moves along. I’m going 20-17 Nebraska, accounting for the -7 Riley factor!

I think this was in the other thread but I don’t want it to get lost there.
Does that mean Gameday will be there, too?
Yes. In East Lansing
Our AB fantasy football draft is tomorrow. I’m going to send out an email now — respond to confirm, else I’ll look for a replacement.
Anyone interested if we do need a replacement? It’s a 10 team auction draft, ppr.
“Slow start” Riley will be fun to watch.
Poor N fan. #schadenfreude
Shaw shows he’s no Harbaugh.
Stanford looks like a team we could beat.
Agree. They got handled.
Two year Harbag greatness halo long gone
Yeah I’m surprised it lasted that long, tbh.
They have been slow for years now and skating by on Harbaugh’s guys. They’re all gone now.

Hey guys, MR holds his players responsible and accountable, announcer guy said so
He funny
Well Riley sure as shit isn’t accepting responsibility or accountability for shortcomings
Hahaha this telecaster just said Mike Riley has been successful at every level (even mentioned the NFL), then said Riley holds players accountable, and not to confuse his niceness with weakness. This is hilarious.
Brenda Tracy would find that comment bitterly ironic.
“Success at every level”??? 14-34 NFL record? Interesting definition of success. The “Riley Narrative” really is a national phenomenon.
If anyone can break this 30 game opening day winning streak it’s Riley.
Here’s to a history-making day! Hip hip hooray!
“Little Biley on the Prairie” starts now!
Gain of 14 on first BYU play, got Bankered
There’s Bruce Read earning that paycheck as the kicker almost falls down after kicking off
“The great thing about (Riley) is he embraces the standards that Nebraska fans have for him”
See it’s the fans’ fault we lost to Sac St. and EWU. We just didn’t expect enough!
I’m reminded of an earlier comment by someone about MR knowing he could get away with being mediocre so he strived to be nothing more (and therefore what an asshole)
One thing we’ll see today IMO;
1) UCLA is overrated!
Go Beavs!
Athleticism from Pelini players bailing Riles out
This will be Riley’s best start at Nebraska. All down hill as Pelini memory fades
That was a gift
it’s early yet. Hey BG, I responded to your last post in the post-game thread about anyone going to the Michigan game, just fyi. answer here if you like
McDonough is the guy who trashed Dennis Erickson and the Beavs during the Fiesta Bowl broadcast vs. ND along with that ex-Husky Ed Cunningham so you can expect a lot of love going Riley’s way from him.
Good observation!
Well that sucked….I was about ready to type “another red zone flame out” for MR. BYU secondary looked a step slow on that first drive.
Bear in mind the Pelini halo is still in effect. Team hasn’t been fully Bileyfied yet
just got my first glimpse of Banker
Hand jive baby
Did he have a derpface? How was the hand jive tempo? Dammit man don’t keep me in suspense!
Portland State only down three to the Cougs middle of third quarter, with the ball and driving. Getting Stanford at home I’m now seeing a six win season well within reach
PSU-Cougs, tied. PSU has all ten points in second half
ADMINISTRATIVE PENALTY
you can tell the Anderson has made real point of Admin Penalties because in his post-game interview Villamin was talking about having made one, but it wasn’t, in fact, an ADMIN but garden variety. Coach has really hammered that home, which is a good thing
McDonough on Langsdorf: came back to Riley so he could be “associated with a great program like Nebraska.” Lindsay couldn’t have said it better
“Watching film tomorrow, the first thing the coaches will say to Tommy is “You can run, Tommy. You can run.”
Not with Riley he can’t.
Two penalties and a short throw on 3rd and long. This looks more familiar.
That guy not knowing how to down a punt is the best part so far. ST Coach read is so worth it!
The $300000 touchback
First punt of the Riley era! Wheeeeeeeee!
There’s the banker d we all know and love
Now that’s a Signature Banker Drive ™
Four plays, 99 yards, 1:31
That looked familiar.
Beat on the longball – check
Pass Interference – check
Gave up TD on QB run – check
Classic
Will the real Banker defense please stand up?
Pass Interference, on the defense, 15 yard penalty, automatic first down.
There they are
viks with the ball start of 4th quarter, chance to take the lead
This is like watching your ex date someone else and smiling to yourself and saying, dude if you ONLY knew. LMAO
I know it’s early but this is something that could affect Saturday’s game:
http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/l/Ann+Arbor+MI+USMI0028:1:US
Looks like Thunder and Lightening is being forecast for the mid week forecast with some rain. Hope that worst case scenario that there is only rain on the weekend! I hope the Beavs will be dunkin’ some balls to practice with a wet ball and be ready in case.
Go Beavs!
I think with our spotty passing game, and UM’s stud TE looking to be a factor, heavy rain will play in our favor.
I’m pretty sure Michigan’s a grass field still. I’m not sure rain is in our favor unless our O Line drastically improves. And if Michigan loads the box and forces us to throw, it could get ugly quick. I think us throwing the ball when we want is much more advantageous than having to throw because of down and distance.
Either way, this game will be a huge game in terms of learning for the Beavs. Being competitive will help bring in some more confidence to this young team. I think this should be a close game (barring a meltdown). So it could be a possible shocking victory for us but the pressure is all on Michigan to win. How we respond to this game (win or lose) will be paramount to the results of the rest of the season IMO.
Go Beavs!
We’ll have to practice outside. Should get some weather in Corvallis this week.
PSU recovers fumble on Coug 11.
The coug special is being served, coug’in it
PSU takes the lead
This Is typical Riley, looks like the eastern Washington game, last team with the ball wins, final 43-42.
Seth Collins with a little note on the ABC ticker for 152 rush yards
No hurdle highlight?
Not enough pixels on the ticker
The Pac-12 is off to a terrible week one.
Arizona only beats Texas – San Antonio by 10.
Stanford losing to Northwestern.
Colorado losing to Hawaii, and WSU potentially losing to PSU. At least I can feel better about the odds of beating WSU and Colorado.
don’t forget UW losing in Boise. before the weekend is up the Beavs may be looking at breaking through that 9 win glass ceiling!
Let me think over the time, but the golf course is good.
thx
and folks here thought the Reser crowd was lame last night? the stadium in Pullman may have 10-15,000 people in it. and there the students ARE already on campus
I was thinking that too. Why is it Corvallis gets such a bad rap from the stale media? Over and over we hear how OSU is the worst place in the PAC, is that because the don’t even know Pullman exists?
Pretty sure people just forget about WSU and Pullman entirely.
George Raveling quote from the 80’s when asked if Pullman was the end of the earth.
No, but you can see it from there
“He didn’t play the ball or the man there”… So, so familiar.
“Banker trying to figure out what went wrong there.”
Story of his life?
+100
“Mark Banker trying to figure out what went wrong there”
Yeah some things never change
JYNX!!!
Great minds think alike :)
Deja Vu. QB run up the middle for a TD.
containment of a mobile QB? priceless
This couldn’t have been more predictable so far!
WSU ties it up
Looking forward to Leach’s presser no matter what happens
Huskermax forum starting to implode about Banker.
Surprised it only took 1+ quarter. We tried to tell you.
#poorbastards
Nice name!
Falk ties it for the Cougs, but it’s astonishing to see him struggling to put up points on the Vikes when he walked all over the Beavs last year, in Corvallis no less. But then, the PSU team is lined up and ready to play at the snap, unlike a Banker D.
I hope Mangum is mobile
luck o’ the Huskers. Hill out
First I was worried about Hill being injured… Then I realized getting stomped by a backup QB is also classic Banker
look at that, Riley was scanning a play card
He was looking for a gum selection for next quarter.
Bicycle catalog
crowd is already silent, and it’s only the first game
Five penalties in just over one quarter, yep Mike is all about accountability.
Don’t forget Mike Riley is a really nice guy. Every time they’ve met him, he’s always lived up to it.
BUT DON’T CONFUSE THAT WITH WEAKNESS
Riley & Co. remind me of my attempts at running. starting out strong with lofty goals, then winding up panting and on the verge of vomiting on the side of the road.
All these false starts for the huskers… Gotta smile and shake my head.
Vikings on verge of taking the lead, 4 minutes left. Based on opening week play Beavs look like they are no worse than the 3rd best team in the Pac North
WSU defense is a sieve.
Leach looks like he has a bad case of agita
Port St 24-17 late in the 4th
Hahahahahaha COUGS
That is a big crowd of people in red, quiet people in red.
Falk with what looks like a serious injury.
He got up after landing on his head then damn near collapsed. Looked scary. Concussion?
I’d say separated shoulder or collarbone
Agree.
Portland St picked off Bender. Game over. North is up for grabs
lolololololol Cougs!….!!!!
is it just me or does it seem like a lot of Huskers have hobbled off the field today?
Also very rileyesque
You can take the stripes off the tiger but it’s still a tiger ;).
Go Beavs!
This is the worst secondary play I have seen from Nebraska in years. Please get better.
#HuskerFanQuotes
;)
“It’s not hopeless yet fellas. ”
the fan rationalization sounds reaaaally familiar
Leeched
Leach only needs one more FCS loss to tie Riley for the conference record
Is it fair to say that they are a Husk of what they once were?
..I’ll just see myself out
Fumble, work that gum mike
classic Riley pose there; hands on knees staring at the ground. I’m so happy I’ve got tears in my eyes
Banker looks panicked
Banker: “taking better angles for tackling”??
anyone think we’ll hear boos as the team heads off the field at the half?
Wow. Good idea to not bring Rod Perry along to Nebraska. Secondary looks great.
Oh, td, defense must not have been in right call, that’s my boy mark
Classic Riley, fumble on a simple exchange leads to points for BYU. I’m wondering if the Nebraskan fans are realizing they made a mistake in their recent coaching hire?
Once the deal with DirecTV somehow fell through for the Pac-12 it has been a downhill slide. Millions more per school would have been a big deal and the conference would have been riding a high. Instead a poor start. Embarrassing loss for the Cougs but a nice victory for my other alma mater in PSU. Colorado still stinks and their Mac might not survive a 2 or 3 win season. Don’t think they do any better than 3 wins. Huskies have a couple skill players but bad loss for them too. Oregon State is in good bowl situation with 6 wins. Other teams like UW and WSU may not get there.
based on an objective assessment of play the only teams that one can posit being better than the Beavs in the north are the one’s that haven’t played yet.

#poorbastards
We need to all join that huskermax forum
looking forward to the discussion about Nebraska’s second half adjustments. It’s a great day to be an Angry Beaver
Anyone up for going in on a thank you card to send to the Nebraska athletic director???
hey, that’s actually a great idea. send a cc: to Ken Goe and Lindsay
We’ll send Lindsay a thank you cake instead. She’d prefer that anyways
I’m in.
I’m sure Riley will assume his part of the blame for this too, just like he always does. #poorbastards
“(riley) May be going to the screen a little too often”
Well duh.
Right. The strange thing is for someone that is supposedly so well respected it’s hysterical to hear announcers seem so surprised by Riley idiocy. How do they have ‘so much respect’ for someone they have never seen or paid attention too? Do they just read fat Lindsey talking points? Because while the announcers watch the game, they see and say the same things we’ve been saying for years.
Their research consists of watching the two USC wins on You Tube.
Cannot wait to see the angry pirate’s postgame press conference
smirking?? check Gum chewing?? check Hands on knees? check
Nebraska taking our coach…Priceless
I was wondering how long it would take before he we heard the “easier to recruit to than Corvallis” trope
more good body language from Riles on the sideline; looking at his shoes.
Riley bailing on the run.
#ThankyouNebraska
time to keep an eye on time outs remaining
I didn’t get an email for Fantasy Angry, but I’m still in.
Which team are you?
Gosh Darn
Let’s re-evaluate this schedule:
9/4 vs. Weber State W 26 – 7
9/12 at Michigan 9:00 PT -Tough probably a loss
9/19 vs. San Jose State 5:00 PT-Close game but a win
9/25 vs. 21 Stanford 7:00 PT-very tight game winnable but I say Loss
10/10 at 22 Arizona TBA- Loss
10/17 at Washington State TBA- Tight game Win
10/24 vs. Colorado TBA-Win
10/31 at Utah TBA-Loss
11/7 vs. 13 UCLA TBA-Tight game Win
11/14 at California TBA-Loss
11/21 vs. Washington TBA-Win
11/27 at 7 Oregon 12:30 PT-???
6 wins is very possible at this point. With this coaching staff, more is definitely not out of the question! This is a good season for the PAC 12 to be “down”!
Go Beavs!
I think UCLA is at least as good as Utah. Rosen isn’t going to win games for them, but their O-line is solid and they have a stout defense.
UCLA is definitely not #13!
Go Beavs!
Rosen is fucking outstanding.. I’m guessing you posted this before seeing him play? I was impressed by this guy.. He’s scary good already
I did post it before seeing Rosen play but “overrated” is not saying they’re not good, they’re just not the #13 team in the country. Rosen played well against a very (and I’m being nice here) average Virginia team. The defense played better than I expected and Perkins is really good. I just don’t believe Rosen can bring this team to be #13 or better in the country. that’s all.
Go Beavs!
“Mike Riley needs to keep an eye on the clock” said without apparent irony
The Mike Riley 2-minute offense is always good for a laugh.
and that’s all it’s good for.
I almost wonder if he thinks that ‘2-minute offense’ means it’s supposed to take 2 minutes to get the play call in and run the play.

those poor people truly have no idea what they are in for
Slightly OT…
Canzano said – “This wasn’t good enough and we all know it.” – talking about the Beaver performance last night.
Riley being Riley lol
we came within one second of a vintage Riley end of half close-out. and then the shank.
Yes. Classic Mike.
Armstrong be taking 10 yard sacks like Mannion. One third of that fan base is going to turn on Riley tonight.
At OSU it appears 2016 could be pretty good and by 2017 Andersen’s Beavs could be a very serious threat to contend for the Pac-12 North crown. I think that Louisville back who visited and other recruits need to take a strong look at joining what has indications of a program headed the right direction to make some real noise. WSU and UW fans both could be looking for new coaches by then.
OSU’s situation will be among the better ones in the North in the next couple years. Coaches need to start selling that now cause with a few more quality pieces and strengthening the running attack and O line play, Andersen will no doubt have the Beavers relevant and trending higher soon. Seth if he stays healthy and this team have real potential.
At least n special teams come through for Mikey, er, uh…
“good thing we have a ST coach ”
#poorbastards
So far everything playing out as expected, including the interview going to locker room at half where he blames the kids.
#thanksnebraska
I missed it. What did he say?
I can’t remember exactly but something to the effect of it was poor communication by the players and the penalties are why they were behind. All said with stupid smirk.
By contrast GA going to half ahead btw was not happy said we need to clean things up and the offense was unacceptable not pointing to a play or player or penalty.
Rank these comedians in order:

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhahah
schadeNfreude
Coach Cav, “BEARCRAWLS!!!!”
10 penalties already for Nebraska early in the 3rd. There’s that Riley discipline
Rest assured the jiminy christmases will be flying at the responsible parties later, by golly
Hip Hip Hooray!
Want a good laugh. My brother has been saying “it will be good to have coached that don’t put up with dumb mistakes!”
Nebraska 37 yards rushing first half. It only took 2 quarters of play and Riley has trashed the school’s reputation as a ground game power house. Isn’t that what got Callahan in trouble?
That and giving up 70 to Mike Leach.
Huskers block a Cougar into their punter who gets carted off the field.
GO BRUCE READ!
Coug gets blocked into punter and nebbie fan goes apeshit thinking there should be a penalty, do they know anything about football? It may explain why they thought MR was a good hire.
Nebraska has some life. Here comes Langsdorf to fix that.
I know I’m bummed by the pick but is McDonough rooting for Nebraska?
Nice blatant block in the back on the reverse that wasn’t called
Yeah I’m guessing big 10 refs?
The refs have been good.
The only reason that play sprung was an o lineman pushed the first guy straight down on his face.
But in general, they have been good. They’ve actually given BYU most of the 50/50 calls.
Banker and those pesky mobile QBs.
Collins would’ve hurdled that safety.
There you go…
I feel like we’re losing our superbowl :(
Nebraska’s playcalling has actually been good the last two drives and has BYU completely off balance.
BYU’s defense has been on the field for most of the 3rd quarter. They look gassed
That Int will help
BYU with the pick
Why is the BYU O-line so bad? I thought they had all the beefiest mormons in America
4th and 1(on your side at the 45 or so) and you try a rollout with a pocket passer? WTF was that? Then he throws up a miracle and it’s complete (thank god Banker’s the D coordinator). Is BYU trying to lose here?
Go Beavs!
Of course banks was caught off guard.
Remember when dudes wanted Leech as our coach? Lol.
What happened to Hill this time?
I think he hurt himself in the first half. He went to the locker room after he scored BYU’s first TD
Missed that too
Kansas becomes 3rd Power 5 team to lose to FCS, do they not count Michigan losing to App St or Va Tech losing to Coastal Carolina because it wasn’t Power 5 then?
They were talking about twice since 2010, not ever
Kansas loses to South Dakota St. Joins OSU and Iowa St as the only teams to lose twice to an FCS opponent since 2010. Welcome to the club boys lol
Okay Cougars, time to drive down the field and save our season
BYU should have gone for it there. They won’t see the ball again.
yep
looks like Nebraska will hold on. too bad
Yep. Way to use all your pathetic opening game performances on us, Riles
He used all his timeouts, too
They still have almost 4 minutes to fuck it up
Wow… What a finish… You were right after all…. 4 minutes is a lot of time.
and it took all 4 but fuck it up they did
what was the line on this game?
so, Angry, now that you’ve seen the Anderson/Riley coaching performance back to back, what’s your thinking?
What do you mean? GA is clearly awesome and Riley is mediocre. Same as we knew all along.
another Bruce Read special
This one isn’t over. BYU will get the ball back with about 50 seconds left after Nebraska shanks another FG attempt
Riley should have challenged that spot, but he doesn’t…QB was short on the run
Nebraska fans shitting their pants right now
I posted this during the timeout before the final play. Clairvoyant? No, we’ve all seen this go down before lol
Bike Riley using all his timeouts? What the fuck.
Oh my god.
HOLY SHIT!!
Ha ha ha Southridge kid wins the game!
Go Beavs!
LMAO
Fantastic ending!
You know I almost feel bad for them. I do kind of feel bad for Riley.
I don’t
Did Ya see that? Lmao! Banker fucks it up again lol

Classic Mark Banker defense against a Hail Mary into the endzone!
yeah when have we ever seen that before lol
There were eight Nebraska DBs down there and just three BYU receivers. So many redshirts just standing around. Nice D, fellas.
I guess mike continues to bring first to team lol
With receivers that are 6’5″ and 6’6″ etc, run them downfield and tell ’em to “rebound the football” (highest point) and take the ball away. We have a couple of those guys on this team :).
Go Beavs!
as we said all winter and spring long for Braska fans.
“Those poor bastards”
just like SC last year. my phone is ringing off the hook from text messages from friends
from HuskerMax:
“We played not to lose . . . and lost. SImple as that. ”
welcome to the Mike Riley era Husker fans.
Kid’s got a nice arm.
so Riley screws up with timeouts once again by calling them so that BYU can collect themselves and cohere a strategy.
Gina Mizell is great btw.
Mizell is the Anti-Schnell
Yeah she’s awesome
I’m going to be sad when she leaves for a higher paying job someday. Best beat writer they’ve had ever IMO.
Yeah easily.
Schnell is in Corvallis/Eugene for the games. In her wisdom, she tells us OSU is going to be pretty ugly for a couple of years. There were some responses to that – you’ll need to go to her twitter account.
So that’s why the Safeway bakery on 53rd was unusually low on donuts this morning.
she should know what pretty ugly looks like. She sees it in the mirror daily
Biley getting a quick start at Nebraska. One game and he already has his signature loss
he is a man of firsts
Mark May lighting Riley up
What’s he saying?
Blasting his use of the time outs, player fundamentals in the endzone, ect. Everything we’ve been saying for years.
Coming on the heals of Mack Brown making excuses about it being a first year coaching staff. Mays starts with a very demonstrable ‘this is not a first year coaching staff’ with comments as outlined by Afghan
RILEY LOSES THEM THE GAME!!!! STUPID TIMEOUT! ACTING SCARED WHEN THERE IS ZERO REASON FOR IT.
If I was the Nebraska AD I would cut my losses tomorrow and end much more heartache. Losing that way means HALF the fanbase at least will be pissed at Riley.
So glad we aren’t forced to take another 7+ years of that being stuffed down our throats as competent administration of a football program.
THANK YOU NEBRASKA!!!
I’ll just leave this here………………………

Usc all over again!
I was originally going to play a 3 team parlay with:
Virginia +18 @ ucla
Temple +6 vs. Penn State
Byu +5 @Nebraska
Then I thought to myself self… You know dam well a Riley led team is not going to be ready to play the opening week of the season. Screw the parlay and put 100 on Byu and call it day.
Paid off as Virginia pushed with UCLA
We know Biley so well, it’s not gambling. It’s practically insider trading
+5 is a gift
I feel like I’ve seen that game about 100 times before.
now it’s time to see how good ASU and the Dux are
RILEY LOSES NEBRASKA THE GAME!!! WHAT A STUPID TIMEOUT! BEING SCARED WHEN THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON FOR IT.
If I’m the Nebraska AD I cut my losses tomorrow morning and save the fan base much more heartache and the slide into a loser’s mentality.
OSU is so fortunate to not have to be force fed Biley at the helm for another 7+ years.
THANK YOU NEBRASKA!!!
Remember folks, huskers are paying $3,000,000/yr for this privilege!
Thanks for the half-mil and renewed life, Nebraska :)
schadenfreude
its so funny BYU fans calling it a miracle, of thee of little knowledge, its a Riracle!
Luck of the Beavs seems to be getting better,eh?
From Corn Nation:
“Riley is smiling!!”
“He’s HAPPY he lost????!”
BAHAHAHAHA poor bastards
That was a neat deal for the BYU players to win the game like that
Hey, Corn Nation — you dont get it…..dude is smiling cause he milked you poor bastards for millions. Smiling all the way to the fucking bank….
Watch the replay. Number 11 for BYU comes over and gives the referee a hug while he’s signaling for the TD. LMFAO!

Well, we didnt have long to wait for Riley & Co to show Huskernation what they are all about.!!!
Godaaaamn!!! LMFAO!!!!
A MILLION THANKS, NEBRASKA!!!!!!!
Bruce Read and Banker certainly earned their paychecks today lol
Beavs win
Biley loses
Nebraska loses
Penn State loses
Great college football season so far!
Who beat a team from Utah this weekend?

its almost so bad i can’t even gloat at this point. I’m speechless.
Why? We’ve all seen this play out many times in the last several years. Better them than us
of course i’m glad its not us. no one should have to deal with this bullshit though
He needs to retire for the sanity of Americans.
You do when you get paid 3 million dollars
See, that’s the problem with having too much money. You tend to spend it on stupid crap like a coaching staff on the decline
Nebraska already lowering their expectations, and we see that word “hope” in there…
http://nebraska.247sports.com/Board/142/Contents/How-Many-Wins-39195384
it’s called false hope. Nebraska fan hasn’t succumbed to this just yet. Give it time
Shucks, Riley has them right where he wants them!
Btw, there’s a particularly intelligent long-time poster on HuskerMax:
“9 Wins will be a struggle
Welcome to Beaver football..
This looks like the last 5 years of Oregon State. “
one guy in there is predicting 7-5, possibly 5-7 for Nebraska. How sweet would it be if the Beavs had a better record at season’s end than Nebraska!
How about the beavs play them in a bowl game instead?
:-)
Soon it will be hard to recruit to Lincoln.
Does it have an airport? Does everyone look the same? Is it in the middle of nowhere?
They need tartan endzones.
Riley era starts at Nebraska…fucking awesome!
Huskers on the forums already lowering their standards…. “can we get 8?”…
Husker fan wanted to hate on us for fair warning, sour grapes says they… 30 years of opening season wins wiped out in one year/one game of Bike Smiley. Sour grapes indeed.
Someone may have said this already, so correct me if I’m wrong
BUT
Those poor bastards!!!!

Husker nation, welcome to our hell. Bad play calling, crappy clock management, terrible D-Coordinator. Sincerely, Beaver nation #Huskers
He left out poor special teams play
yep; two missed field goals.
Taysom Hill out for the season, again…
Yup was just going to post that. Broken foot. Third time he’s had a season ending injury
He should probably consider giving up football and becoming an accountant at this point.
Poor guy. At least he’ll go out as the guy who helped win the most important game in angrybeavs football history.
Is he out of all redshirts/medical exemptions? That’s a bummer the guy was fun to watch.
Sometimes there are 6th year waivers, he is a really good college QB, it’s too bad. He might also be 28 years old with going to BYU.
They’re advertising “The Southeastern Conference Academic Initiative”
So it sounds like they might finally initiate some academics down there? Nah, why start now
That’s an oxymoron.
Maybe it’s an initiative to push back against pressure for those pesky academics to inject themselves into the campuses
that just means that each player now get two tudors to take tests for them instead of one
They get two houses?
Banker defeated by a 2nd string QB again, right?
That just adds to the awesomeness.
It’s truly incredible how psychologically liberating it can be to see all the mistakes of the past (the bad plays, the hand jives, the terrible use of time-outs) being played out on another team and knowing that you are never going to see it being played out on your favorite team ever again.
Have we given thought about sending Sean Eichorst an angrybeavs thank-you card? Maybe we could all chip in and get him a $50 gift card to Olive Garden.
Maybe a gift card to the liquor store.
Might be able to find him a neat deal on gum
This reminds me of the “old guard” for OSU

They’d always write stuff like this after a really bad loss. Groundhog day!
I like the poster who says “next week is South Alabama” almost as a “God I hope so confirmation”because he couldn’t live through another game like today.
It was so clear from day one that Riley was a bad fit for NU. This will be Callahan part two. I can’t believe Husker fans can’t see that yet.
“Gerry said there were no halftime adjustments.”
and water is wet? Shit anyone here could have told you that ahead of time

If anyone can break this 30 game opening day winning streak it’s Riley.
Good call Angry
The mans right 99% of the time. It’s a scientific fact
I still wanna see his books….. think it might just be 98% …
who else had BYU winning in their college pick em pool? Show of hands
Whiskey did
so, the official tally is in; this thread has more posts (and still counting) than the Beavs vs. Weber.
has anyone found a link to Riley’s post-game press conference? I’d love to see that.
http://www.huskermax.com/games/2015/vid/01/05riley.html
Between my howling laughter, I actually felt some pity watching this… for NU.
we can correct some of that stuff. the penalties
OMFG! No. No you obviously can’t lolz
The scrutiny is gonna wilt the poor fella. Where is Banker’s post game commentary?
That’s what pisses me off about this, 5 players have to answer questions about why they lost, but Banker, Langsdorf and Read get a pass.
That was painful to watch. He’s deteriorating quickly.
He’s been deteriorating for years. This is the same post game he’s given fat Lindsey et al since what 2009?
Starting with the stupid smirk, the stammering, “we’ll get it fixed,” “we have a good group,” the staring at his feet…
This is EXACTLY why we all would get so frustrated after a tough loss, especially after loses to fcs teams it was hard to watch.
He should have nutted up and retired when he had a chance. His legacy will be that of the guy that didn’t know when to walk away. He’s a selfish prick.
He is definitlely a prick for the reasons y’all are saying. But when folks are tossing millions at ya, I am sure its a hard thing to process. Whether its dememtia or just loss of competitive energy, he started a downhill slide but the millions kept coming….so he kept going…. Manning up got harder and harder, I bet.
There was a bit on his coaching career during that BYU game and someone should have noted that he wasnt really all that successful, all the stints he had, except for a string of years after he came back to OSU. And even that was studded with occasional strangeness.
What is amazing in all that is how the GOOD GUY/FAMILY image kept carrying him onward.
Dont see how it can end well … ….oh, wait! Yeah… he finally flops and writes a book on it….! (the cover features that shit eating grin…)
there’s something wrong with him
That was my thought……how did he pass an interview or was he even interviewed for the job? If I didn’t follow him or know anything about him, I would seriously think he had a stroke and was recovering from it.
I kind of feel bad for him. Once it’s generally accepted that HE was the problem at OSU, I’ll wish him well at Nebraska (though, he will likely be failing for that to happen). Too bad he doesn’t just admit he coasted for years. If he admitted he coasted and milked OSU and they could do much better than him, I’d root for him.
first it must be said that Angry was right about this (as he is 99% of the time) :) when he suggested that there was something “off” about Riley.
And his post just above is equally insightful because I was wondering all day just why I wanted BYU to win so badly and it’s because until it is generally conceded (by Parker, Goe, Schnell, etc) that Riley was the problem, not Corvallis, or the university, or the airport, or the facilities, or the resources, or the lack of tradition, or, or, or … as a fan of OSU you can’t root for the guy
“Well i think….like i said…when you look at …what we would like we did better but we’d like to more consistently throughout the game be better with our tail back running game”
DUDE
WHAT
that was about as coherent as the presser after the ASU game down there in 2013
I never did attend one of his practices, I wonder if that’s how he coaches to the players to?
besides the fact he’s a mediocre coach that is past his prime? with outdated schemes?
Jesus Christ. He is so defeated and has been for a long time. Put him on suicide watch, his press conferences throughout the years are getting more and more depressing. This man single-handily destroys programs.
anyone find the full post game riley interview?
http://www.huskers.com/SportSelect.dbml?SPID=22
You’ll need to scroll down some
i’m really starting to think the guy has dementia or is going senile, none of his sentences make sense
not to mention all of the stammering
I suggested dementia to Gina Mizell and she went postal … like — a relative of hers had dementia and so its a horrible thing to suggest … or something like that. So I’m now a bad guy to her….
But something is definately wrong with our ….oops! … THEIR … Riley. God I feel good its THEIR fucking Riley now….
It’s not really a horrible thing to suggest, it affects millions of people and Riley could easily be one of them. Everyone is noticing there’s a problem with his speeches and how incomprehensible he sounds during interviews. Could be nervousness or it could be something worse idk. Guess it just touched a nerve or something and she got irrational which sucks
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uy8N0PGvq8A
I said “stroke” sarcastically, he is definitely “stammerish”, but I think it’s just him being nervous, I think he does understand that expectations just increased tenfold with this job and it’s probably a little unsettling to him to have this worst case scenario start to the season no matter how long he’s been coaching.
My Mom has mild to moderate dementia and one thing I notice is she doesn’t understand some questions you ask at all and then she tries to cover it up in her own way. Riley understands the questions that are being asked.
I remember watching singer Glen Campbell on the TV being interviewed a few years back after my Mom had been diagnosed and I said to my wife, he has dementia, I wonder if it’s been diagnosed? You could see it on his face, he couldn’t follow all the details in the questions. Riley is not exhibiting that type of behavior.
Looks like Mullaney is getting a lot of snaps for Bama, is he a starter? Remember, Riley didn’t have anything to work with according to Ken Goe.
2 catches for 38 yds going into the 4th q
EWU hanging with the fighting Oprahs. 34-21 with 6 minutes until half
Catching a few minutes of the Ducks game…..34-21 Quacks.. Eastern has almost 300 yards passing and it’s not halftime yet.
Funny exchange on a husker board right before the losing hail mary play.
“DAMN IT, play your normal defense like you were Banker. This patty cake BS sucks ass. Prevent defense only prevents you from winning.”
Doesn’t this sound all tpo familiar with old Riley?
Ayy. Lmao!
twitter blowing up with fire riley sentiment and a couple sad sacks going “mistakes are correctable”
“Mistakes are correctable”
How much is Riley’s buyout?
I hate that cliche from coaches. The mistake happened and it had an effect, so how is it correctable? It’s done, it’s over.
It’s correctable. You get rid of the entire staff, except the receivers coach. Thanks Nebraska!
Surprised I just noticed this but when ASU fans and cheerleaders make that pitchfork with their hands, it looks the shocker
Been out all day and haven’t seen any football or scores yet. Any good games I should check out?
I would say starting at the top of this message board and reading the comments through the Nebraska game will be more fun than any games going on today.
Watching some of the hole game, notice they don’t line up to go for two every time like they used to.
Despite lacking media credentials, I was able to sneak in and get a photo of Riley’s post game presser.

Arizona State overrated again this year. Surprise surprise
Or Ass To Mouth is pretty good
Wait that didn’t come out right
Ass To Mouth wins 38-17. Arizona St offensive line was terrible
All these PAC-12 losses are really going to drag down the conference’s perception.
Also, I’m not ASU fan, but now we’re going to hear how tough the SEC is for the next week at least.
I think I’ve stopped caring. It’s kinda nice
The whole conference is overrated this season!
Go Beavs!
And someone needs to tell Texas A&M to change their logo as aTm stands for something else to our younger generation
College Gameday will be in Michigan next week!!!!……
For the Ducks @ Spartan game.
EWU just took out Vernon Adams with a cheap shot late hit after he was already down. EWU player was ejected
Sorta cheap, sorta late slide and the EW guy couldn’t pull up if he tried.
EWU with 42 points and 549 yards of offense. Yikes.
Oregon defense has been uglier than a two bit crack whore. That is not a championship caliber defense
Oregon’s defense has been quietly terrible since last year. They would’ve lost to Washington State last year had it not been for Mariota’s heroics, and the defense got completely annihilated by Ohio State in the championship game.
You can pretty much run all over them, and I hope that’s what Andersen does in Eugene this year.
The PAC 12 is not going to be very good this season! I find it amazing that EWU basically has a third string QB that can replace Adams leaving but the Ducks have nobody (that they’re confident with) to replace MM. What a joke!
Go Beavs!
Seriously, how have they not been able to recruit talented QB prospects??
*FACEPALM*
You sound like EWUs head coach lol. They recruited Mariota (He won the Heisman is that good or nah?) and until just this year they’ve been playing with their own recruits at QB. And it’s not that they weren’t confident in the replacements it’s that Vernon Adams is really good. He put up 400+ TDs on FBS schools with an FCS supporting cast.
*DOUBLE FACEPALM*
400+ YARDS not TDs.
I think his question was more like this,
their last 3 qb’s have been Dennis Dixon, The guy who picked his nose in the national championship game against Auburn (sorry but his name escapes me and I’m lazy), then Mariota. The question was why did they need to go get Vernon Adams when they’ve done so well recruiting mobile qb’s?
Honestly, I think Adams is pretty good. But we’ll see how he does on a week to week basis against D1 defenses. I don’t think he’s big enough to hold up and winds up injured. Kinda like Seth Collins.
Darron Thomas. Just came to me. That’s the guy who picked his nose on national television
http://i.ytimg.com/vi/g2PPCWOhJjM/maxresdefault.jpg
I guess I can see that. I read it as him wondering why they’ve had so much trouble in the past not just this last year which I thought was a dumb question since I can’t even remember the last time the quacks had a bad QB. Shit even the nose picker put up good stats and took em to a natty.
No matter what was meant, many teams wanted Adams regardless of their QB situations. I even remember people wanting the EWU coach to take over at OSU just so Adams would come with him.
How is it a dumb question? I’m asking why they didn’t have any good options already on the roster to replace Mariota.
They had to rely on a transfer student to replace Mariota. They should have had a young recruit ready to replace him in my opinion. Seems inexcusable considering how good they’ve been that they wouldn’t have anyone on the roster already.
Jeff Locke does not seem that good. He would be the starter if not for Adams, correct?
If I’m mistaken, you can inform me in a less asshole manner, I was asking a question because I don’t follow the Ducks recruiting.
Alabama has 2 national titles in the last 5 years and their starting QB is a transfer. Florida State won a national title and their starting QB is a transfer. It’s not inexcusable to do this anymore. It’s college free agency and it’s the way big programs are making sure they contend for a title every year.
I think if the Ducks were actively going after an experienced graduate transfer QB it shows a lack of confidence that Lockie could get the job done, so what were they going to do if they couldn’t find anyone (remember there were a few Golson rumors going around also)? It’s only one game, but Adams is no Mariota, but he’s probably a lot better than Lockie. So what are they going to do next year, same situation or does Lockie get bumped by one of the ‘superstar” underclassmen? Until defenses stop Freeman, you don’t need a running QB anyway.
And when you only have to play one FBS team a year (and those teams you play aren’t that great) putting 400+ yards isn’t a super feat my friend, sorry!
Go Beavs!
Huh?! How often does an FBS team recruit an FCS QB, have him come in after Fall Camp has started, talk about a “dual QB competition” and then a week later, the FCS transfer is the starter? Are you serious? Just look at any team in America basically that has lost a QB or two (in some cases). They bring in the guys that they recruited and in most cases, those guys are serviceable. Am I missing something here???
Go Beavs!
You are missing a lot of things but I don’t feel like trying to have a logical discussion about football with someone who think Wazzu is going to beat UO this year.
Oregon with almost 500 yards rushing.
Royce Freeman is scary. Tyner getting hurt is actually probably bad news for everybody else because this guy is gonna run wild. Like Jonathan Stewart but not in a Mike Belotti offense
Royce Freeman is going to get a pounding this season. MSU will pound the crap out of him. And looking at Oregon’s D, this will be an easy win for MSU. Freeman will not last all season.
Go Beavs!
He’s really good, but he’s not as good as Stewart. He’s Onterrio Smith without the wiggle… except you don’t need to see the wiggle in their current system… so I really wouldn’t know about Freeman’s wiggle.
you mean Felonterrio Smith
Bongterrio Smith.
Wasn’t he the whizzinator guy as well? Steal of the draft?
Stewart was studly but even he had his ass kicked by late season and it slowed him down from early season form. See 2007 CW game.
Freeman doesn’t have Tyner to rely on as a back up anymore. Adams is going to take some shots too!
Go Beavs!
So a friend of mine posts a pic on Facebook of her and her son at the game at Autzen stadium. Her son is a duck fan. So I post a joke to the pic
What is the difference between Autzen stadium and a porcupine?
A: a porcupine has the pricks on the outside.
A duck friend of hers then replies “I don’t get it”
I wish I could say I’m shocked lol

“There was no reason for the Cougars to get completely gashed on defense. The new look on that side of the ball appears to be a dumpster fire that takes half an hour to get roaring.”
LOLOLOL
OT: Hey Jack, got any idea how to get my Gravatar working on my new AngryBeavs registered account so it shows up like my old email account? I asked angry, but he told me to ask you lol.
I’m not understanding… maybe. I think we had a problem like this in reverse with someone.
I think it has to do with logging out of gravatar. It will time you out after a while, and your gravatar will start showing up. You’re waiting for your gravatar page’s cache to clear, which happens when you log out. No biggie. Just don’t go back to there and not log out. That resets the timer.
So, what you’re saying is to log out of Gravatar, wait for some time, and then log back in again so my avatar will show up (instead of that…bunny thing that’s currently my avatar)? Alright, I’ll try that. Thanks!
I’m not quite sure with that place. I honestly have not been there since Jeff Perry trolled me with his nasty nasty shit. Jeff Perry is nasty for even imagining that shit. And yes, I’m talking about JP the Beaver… or whatever he goes by now that he’s hiding himself here. Dude is scum.
I know you read this and do whatever JP. You are the scum that I don’t allow my children to come near when I see you in public. I hope you’re happy with that. You more than earned it.
Sorry… Jeff Perry the Disgusting is way OT. He’s still scum of the earth… at best.
Football is all about matchups. I’m going to talk a bit about Oregon here! There are several teams that I feel match up well with Oregon this season. One of them has seemed to play them tight, every season in recent years, and even if they did lose to PSU today they still have a chance against Oregon (that’s WSU…duh!). Personally, I think Oregon loses at least 3 games this season. MSU for sure ASU, WSU (their good match up), Cal, Stanford and USC are just a few teams that I think will possibly beat the Ducks. Yes, they may lose more than 3 games guys! Obviously teams that spread them out and throw the football are going to have success this season (per EWU). But then you add in a PAC 12 defense with that and Oregon looks pretty average, comparatively to the past. I say at least 3 losses and WSU or Cal will be at least one of those (if not 2). We, however, may still be a year away.
Go Beavs!
The Cougs beat the Ducks! ? You must be happy it’s legal now!
No shit lol
Not at all. Match ups. Look at the last few seasons games between Oregon and WSU
http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/recap?gameId=400548267 (last season)
And that was during a 3-9 season.
Don’t let the PSU game fool ya here. WSU can put up points through the air and they seem to match up well with Oregon (even on D they can keep them in check). Oregon is not as good as they have been the last few seasons, especially on D but also on offense. They are very limited at several positions as oppose to the last few seasons! I’m not saying that WSU WILL win, I’m saying of all of the mentioned teams, they may be one of the teams to beat the Ducks. Put the pipe down and read the post properly there Spicoli.

Talk to the Mr. Hand.
when was the last time Wazzu beat the ducks?
2006 at Martin Stadium. Before Chip Kelly and the current regime. Not happening
It may not happen, but it is possible. That’s why I gave a list of about 5 teams. Using the fact that Chip Kelly and the current regime haven’t lost to WSU as the reason why they never will is weak my friend. In fact, last season, the Ducks barely escaped the game with a win. Point of the original post, Ducks lose AT LEAST 3 games this season.
Go Beavs!
That is what is so infuriating about that ass-hat Leach: he faceplants against weak competition then rallies against a few big conference opponents. Makes the whole conference look like shit. Kind of reminds me of Riley in that respect.
I get what you’re saying. I think Cal poses the same danger and likely has a little better defense this year.
I think the Ducks come back down to earth this year. They have a terrible DC and mediocre OC and HC. Stanford is showing the effects of the Harbaugh glow wearing off. I think the Ducks might do the same post Kelly.
I know the main guys on the staff (Ducks) and they’re good guys and coaches but they’re not great or elite coaches. Radclife (their strength and conditioning coach) is an elite guy though (really knows his shit and is a big reason for their success). I think you’re right Jim. I think the Ferrari is breaking down a bit and it’s time to find a new car. I don’t see Helfrich starting something again like Kelly did. It’s going to be really fun to watch all the bandwagon fans freak out when they lose 3 games or so. Ha ha. What a joke!
Go Beavs!
The PAC 12 is below average this season at best! I say no teams from the PAC make the playoff this season.
Go Beavs!
It’s still a young season. Rosen looked good in his first game. Never count out RichRod. Utah is just due for another undefeated season right about now. And Nikegon can still just try and outscore everyone. Their offense is a machine. It’s not as well oiled as it has been. But it’s a plug and play system. As Chip’s guys leave the program the machine will start to find it hard to find replacements.
And don’t count out Sonny Dykes. That guy scared me when he was first hired. His first season at Cal only made everyone get lazy about the Cal narrative. Those guys got a new stadium and a coach who does not lose.
and everyone thought I was crazy when I said Cal not Stanford would be the biggest threat to Oregon’s supremacy in the north. But hey, it’s only one week in and injuries and shit happen
Beavs are the biggest threat to Oregon’s supremacy. Book it, bitchezzz. Air Collins!
Yeah. Goff is a Junior, Collins is a true freshman. Sorry but I ain’t buying. Yes I get it. It was sarcasm
Angry pirate post game presser. It’s pretty anti climactic FYI. I don’t know if it was Leach’s response but around the 5:20 mark you can hear the reporter recording it snicker under his breath. I also thought Leach was going to lose his shit when another reporter asked him about his job security after losing to an FCS team, but alas. He also replied with “next question” when asked if Luke Falk was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure. I think that one annoyed him
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKLJ2RGrOqc
Bat shit crazy pirate is going to be sailing the seven seas soon enough.
The whole state of Nebraska is in free fall. I was reading a game article on the Omaha paper and there’s an idiot in the comments section arguing that the BYU receiver’s hip landed before the goal line and the TD should not have counted. I hope the “coaching buddies” have their San Antonio retirement compound ready to go, they may need it sooner than they anticipate.
Denial. not just a river in Egypt. Sorry Husker fan, that was absolutely a touchdown. Get over it. You lost. Mike Riley is your coach. We don’t feel sorry for you. You poor bastards
Can anyone watching the USC game explain to me why the 4th quarter blocked usc pat was blown dead? I always thought that was a live ball.
Everything I’m finding says you can return a blocked pat for 2 points.
I didn’t know they reinstated the blocked PAT for two thingy. I still wonder if they have done so.
But let’s say they did. And bear in mind I haven’t seen any clips from this game and probably won’t since it’s USC and not worth my time… or my toenail’s time… any one of them. If the blocked (or otherwise) kick went beyond the LOS and hit the ground it cannot be returned. That’s about it. if it bounces in the backfield first it’s a free ball.
well after 1 week only Cal and USC dominated as they should. Didn’t include the ducks because their defense looked awful giving up 42 points and 550 yards to EWU in spite of what their offense did.
1. USC
2. Cal
3. Oregon
4. UCLA
5. Utah
6. Arizona
7. Arizona St
8. Beavs
9. Washington
10. Stanford
11. Colorado
12. WSU
Agree, disagree or flame away
I think ASU is quite good. Defense was stout. Offense not sure. But, that D line of TAM was amazing. The Ducks should take note of TCU and TAM on how good a team becomes when you have a good O AND a good D.
*aTm
So you’re picking Cal number 2 because they beat the hell outta Grambling St? Ok. I think every team in the PAC will have at least 3 losses this season. So whoever is at the top, it won’t be because they’re a top 10 team.
Go Beavs!
Reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit is it?
Look who’s talikn’?!
Go Beavs!
Washington was better than UofA. Colorado worse than WSU. Cal will be good, Stanford will be bad. Looking forward to week 2
I can understand the thinking UW is better than UA since they lost by 3 on the road to a ranked opponent. The huskies looked to have a pretty stout defense. But much like OSU if the offense can’t generate points or sustain drives, the defense will tire. WSU lost at home to an FCS opponent while the Buffs lost on the road in Hawaii. I disagree with WSU being better than CU. And if Luke Falk is hurt and misses significant time, WSU will stay in the basement
Wazzus gonna beat the ducks didn’t you hear?
about as likely as a 40 year old Whiskey starring in a porn vid with Riley Reid
Pull your head outta your ass and read the post ya fucktard!
Go Beavs!
That’s not a fair take. Nikegon’s pass D sucks major eggs. If they face a decent run O, they’re toast. Wazzu does nothing but pass. They will probably roll on O against the Ducks. Stopping the O system that is Nikegon is the hitch. Their Heisman winner can be duplicated with a 5’6″ QB that couldn’t win everything at the FCS level. Their O is the machine. So what if their D sucks? You have to score 50 to beat them right now. Some teams will do so. We won’t.
Mark May’s comments on the postgame. He looked like he was gonna blow a gasket lol
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mNl7sPnaGA
lol @ “first year staff”
gotta cut this inexperienced staff some slack, ya’ll!
I laughed at that comment as well
forty years, first year…same thing.
Mack Brown could be as clueless as Riley when he was a HC, I’m sure there’s some sympathy there regarding befuddled figureheads coaching past their prime.
Pretty amazing that we all here were vindicated in our assessment of Riley in the FIRST game of the Husker season…. The only bad thought I have is about all the dough he will make when they buy out his contract. He heads for retirement and the bank, that shit eating grin pasted on his face….
Oh, well….. bright side — HE IS GONE!
I was telling Nebraska fans about the staff on their board, and they got so mad at me they banned me. I predicted 7 wins, 8 best case and gave reasons why, and they went nuts. A couple other guys from AB were over there warning them, too. They blew us all off and convinced themselves Riley was the answer. I said to them, you’re just doing that because you need to have hope, and they said no, that Riley was a great coach, and it was amazing what he did at lowly OSU. I said alright, sounds like you guys need to see it to believe it, and now they’ve seen it. Some of them still can’t believe it. The mind is a bitch.
Also, I see we have had two “Air Collins” and “AirCollins” sign up for the site. Pretty hilarious. Can’t wait until he posts.
biggest reason?
RiLLLLey
That is all
Ha ha ha! Angry telling people what to do and enlisting his monkeys to harass an otherwise joyful…
… ummm… what fans were we talking about here?
Is there something neat going on? Is it a neat deal? If it’s not… if you can’t positively 100% say yes to that… then I think maybe something.
then I think maybe something
If “something” means you’re a fucking retard. Retard
Funny, because it is quickly becoming lowly NU.
Nebraska are a buncha grand beedes and Riley is an ol’ papere, but they still want to make him into a parran. What a buncha couyon hogwash. He’s got the gumbo now he has to put on his little sun bonnet and fais do-do.

Best post-game presser of the day… I like this guy:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntpsCz7oAd8
I caught a snippet of this on some sports channel earlier today and thought the same thing. No “coach speak”, he knows his shit and is enthusiastic/articulate about it.
This to me is like the Brady Bunch when they go to Hawaii and are cursed by the tiki. Mike Reilly was our tiki. We were able to get the curse in Corvallis lifted by sending it to Nebraska. Today’s game solidified that it’s not the lack of recruiting to Corvallis, but, the incredible mediocrity that was the 3 stooges. Reilly, Langdorf, and banker. Each one failed today by showing everything that is wrong. That coaching staff is gone now, let the rise of beaver nation begin! Let them be 3 and 9! The curse is lifted, thanks BYU, for showing the world that mike Reilly can ruin any program, even on day one!
Who’s Mike Reilly?
Do you make $5286 per week from home?
well played
It’s a fair question.
Holy shit!
That total was subconscious. Someone gave me an inch?
Irving dropped the ball. Get over it.
Rozier dropped the ball. Get over it.
You dropped the ball. I’ll get over it.
Riley dropped the ball.
Riley carrying a ball…. Bwah hahahahaha!
Can we go chat?
are you talking to me?
anyone… we don’t need to populate the thread with general stuff
pass. I’ve already lost enough brain cells
Oh no you have not!
Utilization is the more pertinent part of the whole, “hey, do something,” crowd.
I belong to the :fuck you Jack” crowd
You and my wife have to spend less time together.
I’m an old school type who like s to keep it all bottled up during events because what appears online is much more apoplectic than normal. AND… I’m an old old IRC kind of dude. I’m used to talking to so-and-so from Florida at the same time such-and-such from Australia is coming online… then catching people with shorter names here and there and you get the what’s what.
cool story bro. Pass
Not unusual.
Did you just plus one your own comment… at 1am in the morning?
Seriously… there are some fucks who follow me even here.
I gave that a -1. admitted
yeah. You’re old school alright. If you meant old school in a catholic priest fucking an altar boy sort of way
That’s not even funny considering I happened to escape that fate. Yes, I was an acolyte. I don’t blame myself for not knowing there were victims. I was a kid.
UGH. That was a rough one! This place smells like farts and vomit.
That sounds bad.
the missed FG, game winner and entire post game interviews with BYU players. LOL. There’s some real gold in there. Dejected Nebraska coaches

I was surprised at how surprised McDonough was at it even being a game.
Btw, Irish (Mc) are traditionally insulted by calling them Micks. “”Mack” is a Scot thing, and you have to deal with them for that.
Just saying.
cuss like a sailor, drink like a mick
Why discriminate? You can both cuss and drink.
Sorry. I just have no sympathy or empathy or anything for Nuskers. They were dumb enough to do this.

And then they were dumb enough to do this.
no, I didn’t. But unlike you I can admit there are folks here who don’t like my schtick
Pretty sure this is one of those aimed at me and missing the target wide somewhere.
I feel like you think you think you hate. I am not the anemone. I can be nasty if you want. But that does nobody any good.
This halftime show sucks……..or does it blow?
Kansas State Band Trolls Kansas By Forming A Jayhawk Eating A Dick On The Field

Lol…message from kstate’s band director.

K-State Marching Band
“The chart below represents the drill from tonight’s show. There was absolutely no intent to display anything other than the Enterprise and the Jayhawk in battle. If I am guilty of anything it would be the inability to teach the drill in a manner that these young people could have succeeded. I do apologize for the misinterpretation and I assure you that I meant absolutely no disrespect or malice toward the University of Kansas.”
Frank Tracz
Director of the K-State Marching Band
I thought my job was made artificially hard by me. Who knew?
There was absolutely no intent to display anything other than the Enterprise and the Jayhawk in battle.
Hahahahah!
Caught the last couple plays of MIke’s debut at a buddy’s house. Instant classic!
Let my bro stew for a few hours before texting “told ya.”
Sombody probably already linked this in the past 500+ posts, but if not…..fast forward to 4:10. The whole thing is good though.

If Nebraska just happened to lose all of their preseason games, what are the chances that the three stooges get fired?
Seth’s earring? Lol…
Btw, anybody else notice McM’s rocks in his ears? Gotta be cz, right?
On display here, towards the end.

Didn’t notice 3M’s but StS was fucking with his on TV right after the game. Don’t know if he wore them under his helmet the whole game or keistered them so he could put em in right after. Either way I can’t imagine why anyone would go through the effort of wearing big gaudy earrings under a football helmet.
I’m so pissed!!
Frauds like Leach and Biley scam millions out their respective university’s and I was paid $79,500 to take crap and get canned by a bunch of Corvallis based AARP doofusses! Life is so unfair! JB
It could be worse. You could contribute to the very noticeable degradation in academic capacity at the University of Oregon while simultaneously touting or supporting the wonderful athleticness of Nikegon.
But at least you don’t have a degree from there. That would be embarrassing.
his daughter does….
I’m not picking on his family. I’m not him.
Think we can get this to go viral?
https://imgflip.com/i/qnji3
No.
We couldn’t get anyone to hear us when we had the dude here… and a fashion/donut maven as our beat writer.
I feel like I should pick on Kerry Eggers for not being objective. But that’s all he was even if he was the dude’s best friend. The rest bothered to insert themselves in the conversation, from Ted Miller to Cliff. Although, Cliff was/is low hanging fruit. He may have a different perspective after spending a year in an armpit.
Donut maven…..
This place is on fire this weekend
I would immediately forgive Cliff if he wrote a piece about being so very wrong… in just about every tone and perspective he wrote before he went to hell. And the he waved buh-bye as he left for hell as if he was going to heaven.
Now that he’s back, I see him retweet Horowitz articles. Give me a mea culpa and get on with reality Cliff. You deserve it.
At least Eggers was able to give us more information, hence more insight into Riley than the others. I guess Cliff couldn’t risk his access, so he had to stay vanilla boring until the end. Not much to hang your journalistic hat on during his Corvallis tenure, but Cliff plays in the minor leagues anyway.
Don’t know why anyone would give you a neg over that comment, it was spot on. I just took it back to neutral.
I will print some out for the Husker visit in October.
To me the thing that’s interesting is that it’s not going to take much for “Biley” to be a failure at Nebraska, a lot of the fan base still expects to be in national championship discussions EVERY SEASON. One loss you’re almost done (mission accomplished in 3 plus hours), two losses and it’s season over Johnny! Coaches with 9 and 10 win seasons get fired at Nebraska. MR may say he understands it, but does he really understand it? My conspiracy theory, is that he’s crazy like a fox, this is a retirement package for him and the boys.
Riley committment defects the same weekend they crash n burn:
Erik McKinney ?@EMcKinneyESPN 17m17 minutes ago
A big quarterback commitment this morning for Oregon in Terry Wilson, the nation’s No. 214 prospect who flipped… http://espn.go.com/espn/now?nowId=21-0432229123809613083-4 …
That was in the works already. He’s a dual threat and he sees that every guy riley recruits is pro-style. Smart enough to see the writing on the wall.
can you give a quick breakdown of those who visited this weekend and who to follow?
It’s my understanding that the only visitor this weekend was the Louisville commit RB Malik Staples.
This thread was funny until Jack showed up.
OSU a -14 road dog to Michigan
I might actually buy that line.
I wonder if Riley really believed the bullshit all along about him being a great coach and Corvallis being the problem, and he thought coming to Nebraska and having “real athletes and facilities” would somehow change his obvious ineptitude.
Now he could be coming to the realization that the problem is that he and his cronies suck shit, and his new job comes with a rabid fan base and high expectations. He certainly has that deer in the headlights look about him, not that that’s anything new.
It wouldn’t surprise me if those were his thoughts coming to Nebraska. Given what we’ve seen, his brain is certainly scrambled and I could easily see him thinking that. The fact he didn’t retire from OSU, he went on to something “bigger and better” indicates that he really did think he was the man for the job.
It’s easy to make excuses for yourself until the problem is staring at you right in the face, and I’m guessing that’s where the “deer in headlights” look is coming from right now. Dude should have retired 3 years ago, end of story. Instead, some weird mix of ego and denial is driving him onward until the wheels come all the way off.
In summation, mike Riley is a PUSSY! A total Puussy who doesn’t understand people like us. He is sucking the ADs dick right now!
