Once again you demonstrate your ignorance regarding Nebraska.

Everyone there knows the N stands for nowledge.

 

Thanks for the clarification.  I've never heard that one.  [sarcasm indicator]

It's almost Halloween.  May the ghosts of Lula Strigmyer and May Stevens continue to haunt the Cornhusker football team until Nebraska pays its debt to The University of Akron.

A warning to all:

Stop, drop, and roll.

Is it too late to reach out to them to re-negotiate our contract, putting in a clause that states...

 

If Akron needs the game in an attempt to become bowl eligible or improve bowl eligibility (already bowl eligible but could get a better bowl with a W), Nebraska must travel to Akron to make up the game.

I'm at work and twitter doesn't work right here, but Brett McMurphy just tweeted that NC State will host ECU at noon on Dec 1 if both teams are not playing in the conference championship game. I really hope we don't miss the boat on this make up game. I want a 12th game if we are not in the championship.

The highest paid coaches in the NCAA was posted yesterday and a familiar face can be found at #10. Nice to see Nebraska is getting a fine return out of their investment :rofl:

Akron still hasn't been paid per Crain's on 10/26.  Per "Cathy Bongiovi, Akron's assistant athletics director for communications, said there was "no update at this time.""  The trip cost the Zips $165,000.

I've heard from multiple sources that Nebraska's payment was originally scheduled for March 2019. So until that time I don't there's going to be much meaningful discussion on the topic. If there's no payment by next March, then things get more concerning.
