So you have no problem with the 24 year gap between national championships as long as the team is winning conference titles? Florida's a different story...

I concede that point. Would you be in favor of keeping Pelini as head coach had that incident not happened?

R-E-L-A-X. After about week 2, the Packers were left for dead and the Patriots were done. Neither of those teams make the Super Bowl. You heard it here first.

Nebraska won titles under Bob Devaney in 1970 and 1971. Tom Osborne became head coach in 1973. He won his first national championship in 1994. How long was Bobby Bowden at FSU before winning it all in 1993? Same situation. Neither of those guys would last five years at those schools today without a national title. I'm no Cornhusker fan, in fact, I'm probably a hater of their football team on a level with Notre Dame. I just think it's a shame that the game has evolved to the point of make-us-a national-champion-or-you're gone.

How long did it take Osborne to win his first national championship?

Legendary Tom Osborne was 12-13 in bowl games...

Ve're here to...BUMP! You up.

I'm gonna play devil's advocate, darell...we're now in the day and age of canning coaches for going 9-3 in the regular season?

I'm going to add another coach to the hot seat list: Al Golden of Miami

If I was king, no NFL team would raise a division championship banner for anything worse than a 9-7 record.

I vaguely recall that...what was the story again? Wasn't it an OT loss?

LOL! I thought Rockhurst was clearly the better team as well.

It's usually a good day for your team when you return not one but TWO blocked punts for TD's.

Duly noted. You're right, Kill will generate some interest from other programs.

Ummmmm...one of his teams did (2011).

Who cares? I am more curious about your perspective on Missouri high school football...

That scoop was leaked to me yesterday by YaneA. gfhockey is losing his touch.

No way. I think Jerry Kill is happy in Minneapolis and likes what he sees in his Gopher program.

Brutal.

I've heard of puck bunnies before, but old time Sioux hookers? Oh my!

Someone wake up darell1976! This is the greatest day of his life. How long before Michigan 86's Brady Hoke?

Actually, the Oak Ridge Boys invited THEMSELVES over to REA! They were in their bus en route to the Chester Fritz and noticed a large crowd walking the opposite direction. Assuming that they'd be the only event in town that night, they thought the driver was going the wrong way. When informed that 6,000 or so fans would be watching the Sioux play that same night at the opposite end of campus, the ORB asked the driver to turn around and take them to the game. They literally walked into the arena and were led to someone who asked them if they'd like to sing the national anthem before heading back to the CF for their show. The fans at REA got a real treat that night. Great memory from the old Ralph!

.9?

I thought UND added helmet stickers...
