UCLA / Nebraska
Flew back from Tejas yesterday with a plane change in Vegas....nice representation for the Corn coming in....
Lefty was nice enough to do an even up sig bet as an underdog, so I should do the same...
Huskerfan?

Of course you should....Jim Mora Jr. would be proud..it's less than a TD, homefield, fan numbers....errr...maybe not so much on the last one....The Seer wrote:Flew back from Tejas yesterday with a plane change in Vegas....nice representation for the Corn coming in....

Re: UCLA / Nebraska
I'll gladly take points if I'm betting money, but sig bets have got to be straight up. The whole point of a sig bet is bode. Where's the fun in crafting a sig when your team covered in a loss?

Exactly.
This is the reason I don't play "pick em" (I actually like football for football and don't watch just to see a bet).
The only thing that matters... is who wins and loses.
If I wanted to bet I'd play the horses or some other shit.

That's pretty funny from the guy who claims bode based on box score stats and posts YouTube vids from games in which Cal lost.M2 wrote:The only thing that matters... is who wins and loses.
Re: UCLA / Nebraska
I'm in, Seer. This should be an entertaining game as I don't see one of the shittier Pac defense's doing much against the balance shown this year even though we are only 1 game in. Look for NU to rip the UCLA D-line to shreds between the tackles and when the bruins load the box to slow the run down....an improved Martinez and a great group of experienced receivers will make some big plays.The Seer wrote:Flew back from Tejas yesterday with a plane change in Vegas....nice representation for the Corn coming in....

Only concerns are the Nebraska defense against a shifty QB and a nice Pac 10 offense. NU special teams need to step it up, too.
I'm in on the sig bet straight up....no points.

Re: UCLA / Nebraska
Could there be a worse pregame show than the one the inept Erin Andrews hosts on Fox?

This game is fun. UCLA looks to have a competent team for the first time in years.

Re: UCLA / Nebraska
Punched in the mouth...pure and simple... Franklin will be a Sunday guy and Hunley is going to give the PAC a ton of headaches for a looooong time..nice win UClans..SEER..
Keep that defense playing like they did in the second half and USC and Oregon will need to take major notice..
Young team....looked damn good...

Re: UCLA / Nebraska
Thanks for the kind words....young is right. Three freshmen & a soph on OL, freshman QB, and a young defense. Seeing real coaching here for the 1st time in about a dozen years makes my dick twitch.Cornhusker wrote:Punched in the mouth...pure and simple...

Re: UCLA / Nebraska
He ain't foolin' me...he's OK if OK works for someone, meaning Pelini has tied his wagon to him....He's gotten hype most understanding NU fans know is yet deserved..I still can't buy in and he's got another year after this...Dinsdale wrote:Martinez still kinda blows.
