Nebraska will need to be successful passing!

For the Cornhuskers to win Saturday night in the Big XII Championship game, we will need to come out throwing. Penalties will need to be minimal. After we open the game up passing and have some success, we then can run and mix it up. Oklahoma will have some success running the ball and one would think that will be their game plan. The Huskers will need to execute and execute. It should be a great game. With 60,000 fans attending from NU, it will be almost like a home game. Great advantage for the Huskers.

Nebraska plays North Texas tonight in what is called to be a great game. North Texas has beaten Tulsa this year and Doc Sadler says this will be our toughest opponent so far. Wasn't Creighton out toughest?

Adrian Peterson will not play Saturday for OU.

Will Johnny Rodgers be back returning punts Saturday. We need to break a big one!!

Nebraska women are rated 27th. They beat Texas-Pan America by 77-37 last night.

Frank Solich becomes the first coach in NCAA history to take teams to a league's championship game in two different conferences. He has been named the 2006 MAC coach of the year.

Nebraska in an upset over OU, 27-24.

Johnny will be in Scottsbluff Saturday at Copperfield's Book Store from 1-3 p.m. signing copies of his book, An Era of Greatness: Coach Bob Devaney's Final Four Seasons in University of Nebraska Football.

Sunday, he'll be in Sidney at the Book Corner from 1-3.

If you don't have the book, or need a gift for a Husker fan, visit his website: www.jr20.com.

Thanks for the info Deborah! Congrats to Coach Solich on a great season.

John, did you get the stain out of your pants from Thanksgiving. I heard Jimmy and everyone else had quite the laugh. Wish I could have been there.

I have a suggestion for this blog. Remember, it's just a suggestion. I think you should have a "Throw down" weekly where you put a team or a player and have people debate why that person or team is the best or not the best in there sport.

Also, if you need more sports info for the blog, I got some for ya. I am in a Pro football pick'em, where I have to pick the winner of the NFL games each week. As of righ now, out of all 1,500 people from Nebraska, I am in 8th place. And out of all 22,182 people that are Dallas Cowboys fans, I am in 194th place.
