NJDuck Author Moderator No. 3 Share Posted September 19 Posted by Jon Joseph: As Huskers sellout streak hits 400, Rhule highlights fanbase's loyalty The progress shown by the Nebraska football team this season is worth celebrating but so too is the fanbase. Nebraska, no bowl game since 2016 but Friday night will be the Huskers' 400th sell-out in a row. A streak that goes back to 1962 when JFK was in the White House. (Younger OBDers, please do not ask who JFK was, I'm feeling old enough as it is.) https://athlonsports.com/college/all-huskers/as-nebraska-cornhuskers-sellout-streak-hits-400-rhule-highlights-fanbases-loyalty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Joseph Moderator No. 6 Share Posted September 19 POOR-DUE - Toughest Remaining B1G Strength of Schedule Per Badgers Wire. Big Ten football remaining strength of schedule ranking before Week 4 BADGERSWIRE.USATODAY.COM A look at what lies ahead for every Big Ten team with conference play now beginning I'm sorry, Bucky, but I'm not buying OBD at No. 16. This does not consider Oregon's eight games in a row, a B1G 8-Ball, beginning with UCLA in Week 5. And it does not account for games in Ann Arbor and Madison in late November with a game in between against a Maryland team coming off a 'bye.' The Basketball Committee takes playing on the road into consideration. Hopefully, the Football Committee will do the same. Nationally, does any team besides Mario's U have an easier remaining schedule? Miami has played no ranked opponents to date and has one ranked opponent, No. 19 Louisville, remaining on its schedule. The seven at-large teams chosen by the Football Committee will be a subjective exercise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
