Sports Shorts! Rex Burkhead has a touchdown!

Rex Burkhead  had three carries for fourteen yards today. He also scored on a ten yard touchdown. YES!!!

Nebraska men's basketball pulled out a stressful, error filled game last night versus Cincinnati. It was so bad that I almost turned the channel. Nebraska is definitely not big and they don't have much for shooters after Petteway and Shields and sometimes Pitchford. But they do fight and claw and hustle. That's what won them the game last night in two overtimes.

Now the really sad projection. Pomeroy, which rates by computer the college football teams, has Nebraska at No. 84. They have dropped twenty places in the past week. Pomeroy projects Nebraska to have a record of 13-15 and going 7-11 in the Big 10.  Right now that seems believable but Coach Miles makes them better every year so let's see what happens this year.

NU's next game is December 23rd at Hawaii. Hawaii is 6-3. NU should win that game!

Kudos to the NU volleyball team.  They were great against Washington. They weren't too bad against BYU but BYU swept in three.  NU is very young. Next year they will start the season rated pretty high I would guess.

Calvin Strong leads the World-Herald's All Nebraska team. In fact this will be his third year in a row to win All Nebraska running back.Will Nebraska offer him a scholarship now? Talent wise he looks a lock-in so there must be some other problems he is having for us not to jump on him. Right now Strong is a South Dakota recruit.

CJ Johnson is a wide receiver at Bellevue West. He is a recruit at Wyoming. Nebraska may try to get him now also. We will see.

Johnny Manziel was bad today!!  Only looks to get better.

Four star rated offensive guard Jalin Barnett has Nebraska now his favorite school to attend. Oklahoma is also recruiting him. Jalin is rated 136th overall player in the country , seventh at his position and the 3rd best player in Oklahoma. Barnett is from Lawton, Oklahoma. He visited NU this weekend.

Tight end recruit Matt Snyder from San Ramon, California is committed to Oregon St. but visited NU this weekend. Snyder was blown away by the visit. Snyder has a three star rating and has other offers from California, Colorado St., Fresno St., and Utah St.

Adrienne Talan visited NU this weekend. He is a three star outside linebacker out of Pembroke Pine, Florida. His offers are from Oregon St., Temple, and Nebraska.

Three star Nick Thomas visited this weekend from Bradenton, Florida. He is an inside linebacker. He has committed to Wisconsin but is looking now with the coaching change. He has offers from Hawaii and Nevada also. He plans to make a decision by the end of the week.

Cincinnati coach Mick Cronin said that Nebraska, outside of Louisville, has the best arena he has been in. Awesome praise
