Football Weather
One thing that all Husker fans need to do is think whoever they need to think for the wonderful weather that we have had for home games this season. Not once was it bitter cold. Not once did it snow for a game. Every home game has been amazing. The only bad weather that the Huskers and their fans had to deal with was in Columbia, Missouri. But I think 27 4th quarter points and a 27-12 comeback victory was enough to keep all of the players and fans that were there nice and warm.
Big 12 North Champions?
What a season so far. Kind of reminds you of last season. A loss to Virginia Tech in a game that you could have won. A couple stumbles early in the season against Big 12 teams. A team that sticks together and figures things out and finds a way to win. And now they're a win away from winning the Big 12 North . . . just like last year. The only difference is that other teams in the division have fell to the side to allow the Huskers to climb to the top of the pile. Now they are one win away from making a trip to actually play in the Big 12 Championship game this year against Texas in Dallas. Will they win that one? Who knows. But all you can ask for is a shot
And with a win tonight against Kansas State, the Huskers will get just that . . . a shot.

'Game Time Decision'
Who will start the game for Nebraska against Iowa State on Saturday? We'll find out when the offense hits the field and we see who's in the middle of the huddle.
Zac Lee or Cody Green? That is all that people talked about today at Nebraska's weekly press conference and we didn't find out a whole lot today. Bo Pelini and Keith Mann, Nebraska's sports information director has to be proud. All of the players said all of the right things. There's always a competition. There's no division in the team. When either QB is named the starter, the other QB will accept it and support them. I don't care who is starting at QB, I'm going to support whoever's out there.
I think that Bo Pelini gave a couple clues as to who we will see in the first series of the game on Saturday for Nebraska. Bo talked a few times about he doesn't overreact to things. He's always said that he doesn't get too high and he doesn't get too low. But today he talked about not making rash decisions. They just keep on doing what they are doing and in the end everything will all even out. Point, Lee. He also said that as of right now, this it is Zac's spot to lose. Point, Lee.
MY GUESS - We will see Zac Lee to start the game on Saturday. I think the real question will be for how long. How long will the leash be for Zac? What if this offense is not doing anything, the way it didn't do anything against the Virginia Tech and Texas Tech and for 3 quarters against Missouri? That is when I think we will see the change. This isn't the Iowa State of the past few years. They're not Texas or Oklahoma, but they're also a team that you have to look out for. If Austen Arnaud and Alexander Robinson are able to move the ball and maybe put a some points on the board early, then Nebraska's going to have to answer and score some points of their own. Not just field goals either. The offense will need to a) move the ball down the field, avoid three and outs and get into the red zone and b) capitalize with 6 points rather than just 3. If we don't see this happening, then Cody Green maybe your quarterback for the rest of game and the starter for the rest of the year.
But we'll have to see because it's a 'game time decision'.

Basketball Season Is Almost Here
We're halfway through football season which means that basketball is right around the corner. The Creighton Bluejay and Nebraska Cornhusker teams hit the floor all together and with their coach for the first time last Friday. Both teams have a lot of things to work on going into this season. The Bluejays need to find a replacement for the invaluable skills and knowledge that Josh Dotzler had at the point running Dana Altman's system and do everything they can to make sure Kenny Lawson is healthy because he is their big man. Nebraska needs to see if they can get all of these young faces to gel quickly and play Doc Sadler's style of basketball. All I know is that the season tips off in a few weeks and it should be fun!
