P.S. Nebraska, you'll always be the red headed step child of the BIG 10.

English Bob (Richard Harris): Well, actually, what I heard was that you fell off your horse, drunk of course, and that you broke your bloody neck.

Little Bill Daggett (Gene Hackman): I heard that one myself, Bob. Hell, I even thought I was dead 'til I found out it was just that I was in Nebraska.

Interesting development:

Nebraska parents group hires lawyer, sends demand letter to Big Ten's Warren

https://journalstar.com/sports/huske...b40ab6d88.html

Quote:
"Another big thing is Mr. Warren's son is still playing (at Mississippi State this season), and I know that was a big issue for the parents."

Parents of Big Ten players plan to gather Friday at conference headquarters in Rosemont, Illinois, to try to get answers. But Snodgrass said Nebraska's core group of 16 parents who are pushing for answers won't be on hand.

FSU's coach has tested positive, as I have heard, the entire LSU team has had it and moved forward.

Sorry, I am just now visiting this thread for some reason.


I sense Bigo's quote is sarcasm, and couldn't agree more.

The BIG10 isn't really relevant in the playoff picture anymore, much like Notre Dame.

Now it looks like "little brother" Pac 12 is scurrying to catch up to "big brother" Big 10 and play football after all.
