NEBRASKA REACTS Survey Results: The New Uniforms Are…Not Great
(This article brought to you by FanDuel) So this week’s survey concerned the Husker uniform change, which was probably as much a testament as to how little is going on this time of year as much as anything else. But when the hype is images such as this: And the payoff is minor uniform adjustments […]
Corn Flakes: Football Commit Taylor Continues to Impress
Even though the World Cup is being hosted in North America, I have been in London and seeing the enthusiasm here is making me enjoy soccer….errr football…more.

First off, let’s just dive right in. I’ll have an opinion here and there, so I’ll try to put those into italics. But let’s just start with the new rules which go into place immediately. Sort of. But we’ll get to that quickly. Here we go. First note: Call me nuts but does anyone else […]
Friday Flakes: Nebraska Matches Best Directors’ Cup Finish Since the Eric Crouch Catch

Today is the day I have dreamt about in terms of USA Soccer, a group stage match where I can relax. Yes, it’s very important to set out to win every time you play any game, but as a fan it’s nice to know this one “doesn’t mean anything.” Will I be unhappy if the […]

Corn Flakes: Oklahoma Wins It All, Johansson Honda Award Winner, and What About Those Uniforms?
Did you watch Oklahoma’s dominate win for the College World Series championship last night?
