--Senior NT Ndamukong Suh had his fourth career interception, extending his Nebraska record for a defensive lineman, and collected his 15th career sack, moving with within a half sack of Nebraska's career top 10.

--WR Niles Paul had a career high with six receptions for 102 yards, and tied his career high with two touchdowns.

--Nebraska has held each of its first five opponents to 20 or fewer points, the first time that's happened since 2003 -- the year Bo Pelini came to Lincoln for one season as defensive coordinator.

GAME BALL GOES TO
NT Ndamukong Suh -- The senior lineman was simply dominating. Suh deserves at least mention in the Heisman Trophy race, even if the position he plays will prevent him from getting serious attention. Suh sacked Blaine Gabbert and caused a fumble early in the game and intercepted Gabbert to spark Nebraska's furious rally,

KEEP AN EYE ON
DB Dejon Gomes -- The junior college transfer played sparingly in Nebraska's first four games but replaced walk-on Lance Thorell as the dime back against Missouri and was impressive. Gomes intercepted Blaine Gabbert and returned the ball 40 yards to set up a touchdown, and he batted away a Gabbert third-and-20 pass late in the game. Coaches said Gomes earned his playing time by practicing well.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"It just shows our character, how we could pull through at the end with the win and show what this team was really made of. Even though we weren't playing very well early on, it showed in the end." -- Senior Alex Henery.

In looking back at the Decade that was (00-09)  Did anyone really expect the twists and turns that occured to Husker Nation?
My opinion is this and I am curious what other think.
Steve Pederson looked like a great hire, he had roots in North Platte and seemed like a likable guy ( I remember going to a spring game hand he was outside shaking everyones hand), I was impressed.   T

Ok I just watched the high school highlight video of Carnes.  Yeah he looks alright, but check this video out.  He is not the most impresive player to me.  Look at his wide recievers.  # 1 and #11, these guys are awesome.  I didnt do my research to see who they are or where they are going if they are even seniors or not, but sign these kids.  We all know we could use ...(more)

Since we have a couple of months to kill before the Spring Game.On another thread someone began to speak of the most memorable game ever seen in the last decade.  Lets take this a bit further for we that are of a little older.  What is the most exciting game you have ever attended?  Personally I have been to a few over the years that stick in my mind, as a youngster I witnessed the ...(more)

Anybody have any feelings on if NU will land all three of the big recruits we still are in the running for?  Big O from Oregon, Cooper and the QB from Florida seem to all be projected as difference makers for the Huskers.  Lets have a little fun right before signing day and make some predictions on how we are going to do landing these three.  My prediction is we land 2 of 3 and I th ...(more)

Winding down another recruiting season like the last turns of the Jack-In-The-Box crank - the music slowing to that 24-hour Pop! They call Signing Day before the recruitniks smush the Jack back into his box and crank for 2011 - and, inevitably, the talk turns to Bo Pelini’s methodology now, compared with that of methods past.

OK, I just logged on and didn't see a thread for the Big Event today.

I see that Carnes was suppose to announce at 8 am. I haven't heard anything yet, have you?
Cooper is suppose to announce at 9 am.

I'm just getting set up now, I'll be tuning in the radio and looking around on the internet for the most current news on who's 'N' and who's not.

Read an article that Osborn was in favor of this for a Thursday night game in Lincoln with the Longhorns. However Mac Brown stated it wouldn't be good for the kids. They would miss too much class.

Seriously? Come up with a better excuse than that Mac. You just don't wqant to be potentially embarresed on TV with that being the only game on that day.

There is trouble brewing inside the athletic department.

There was a rumor circulating before the Big XII game that

Carl Pelini was having an affair with a booster's daughter
and Tom Osborne was in the process of getting him a defensive

coordinator job someplace else.

All-Nebraska quarterback Bronson Marsh of Millard South has committed to a scholarship offer from the University of Nebraska at Omaha.

Marsh confirmed that he had pledged to sign with UNO on Feb. 3 in a brief phone conversation Sunday night.

Marsh made a visit to Nebraska last weekend but isn't known to have had any major-college offers. Nebraska assistant coach Barney C ...(more)

Bronson Marsh was supposed to go to UNO as a quarterback, instead, Nebraska offered him a late scholarship.  I don't think this is a good thing, in fact I think this makes it nearly impossible for Four Star Recruit Brion Carnes to come to Nebraska, he probably decided to stick with USF and Nebraska scrambled for an athlete at quarterback and went with Marsh.
