Well, I went to Tech's yesterday and saw a lot of offense, but not a whole lot of D. I was a little disappointed, but some of that might be the learning curve. (If I was upset, I can't imagine how the coaching staff feels.) The team has time to improve, so I'm not entirely concerned yet, but I was expecting more from the defense.

The stadium should look a lot better this fall, especially from the outside. Inside should be a little noisier with more of the sound trapped in.

Definitely The official attendance for this year's Spring game at Nebraska was 78,900. Not bad in a stadium that when packed to the gills on actual, real gamedays only holds around 83,000 or 84,000. Do any others out there get these kinds of numbers?

Only Alabama, I think (correct me if I'm wrong).

I estimated with my eyes that Texas Tech had about 10-15,000, but the guy at the Dallas paper thought it was 4000. I'd go with my guess.

Nebraska fans definitely show up. I think it's my second-favorite team in the conference. I just hope that Sheffield doesn't run into Suh again any time soon (he's on crutches after re-aggravating the foot injury). Hopefully he'll be healthy by June.

Anyway, congrats on the north title, and don't be fooled into joining the lesser competition to the east.

Ohio State has gotton over 90,000 for spring games. Think they got 100,000 in 2009. But it has only been the last 6 or 7 years they been getting those numbers. I went to the spring game at Ohio State in mid-90s and there were about 50,000.

I'm thinking Nebraska is going to join the Big Ten. I predict Kansas comes along too. Add in Rutgers and we got The Big Fourteen.

I hope it happens like that. I think we will know by July 4th.

Was happy OUr D pitched the shutout. I think we might have the best LB corps in the country.

Tennessee's offense looked rough,but i expected that since Tennessee has a new offensive line and qbs. I still think Tennessee goes 7-5 this season.

I'm only seeing 6 wins.

I'm sure the one we disagree on would be @ USCe.

You might have a chance to win in Athens though.
