I know Nebraska is considered a blue blood and they have been irrelevant for three decades. 

Older people thinking about years past  consider Nebraska a blue blood.   They aren’t IMO in college football anymore.  

that’s how I look at it at least 

How many kids think Nebraska is a blueblood over a Clemson?  Unless you live in Nebraska you probably haven’t even seen Nebraska play if you are a kid lol

Kids know Dabo, Watson, Trevor and see Clemson as a permanent fixture in college football.  

I think NIL and the upcoming conference changes will create a new mix of them.  No one cares about 30 years ago

I'm not opposed to trading out of that spot and amassing stupid draft capital unless you're certain Anderson is a sure fire HOFer.

Yeah I'm seeing a lot of guys I'd like to take shots at in mid 1st-late 2nd than any sure fire game changer in the top ten. Problem is most other teams are gonna think the same and not trade up. I think the 2021 draft with Lance and Fields is probably turning teams off from getting too excited about prospects. There was some weird trades last year but I don't remember anything like selling the farm to get into the top 10. The Philly/Saints trade was the weirdest and that was mid 1st round

I'm 40 and I still barely remember Nebraska being relevant.

If you're a HS recruit outside of the corn belt you'd probably be legit shocked to find out that Nebraska was once decent at football.

It’s insane how bad Nebraska is now. People under the age of 30 have no clue how dominant they were at one point. Tommy Frazier is one of the first athletes I cam really remember as a kid being completely starstruck by. Lawrence Phillips as well.

That Nebraska team that dismantled Florida was maybe the best ever.  Miami had a few you could argue but who knows

Nebraska Oklahoma was a great game in the Osborne Switzer era.

      Worst Panthers Preseason Yet

      By Shotgun · Posted

      The panthers are such a trash organization at this point that all the huddle can do is argue about which panthers team is historically the worst…good times.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Well, hope they're not worried about a torn Labrum or Rotator Cuff, as someone who went through that myself, I know those don't have anything show up on X-Rays but from the MRI, so this is kinda a nothing update, hope it's not a tear or his season is already over if they decide to do surgery now. Which is basically what would be needed to get him to 100% for the start of next season's training camp if it's a labrum.  If he plays the season with it and then does surgery, he's not going to be ready for camp and probably not the start of the season either.

      Preseason over..2025 predictions

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I always try to not pay much attention to a team’s preseason win/loss record. The 1982 Washington and 2021 LA Rams both lost every game in the preseason and went on to win the Super Bowl, whereas the 2008 Detroit Lions and 2017 Cleveland Browns both won every game in reason and went on to lose every regular season game. There’s many examples of teams that lose in preseason that go on to have good seasons, but equally there are teams that lose in preseason and that continues in the regular season. Which will we be?  I think our floor is a handful of wins, while our ceiling will probably be around the 9-10 win mark. The latter will require significant improvement from the whole team and coaching staff, and will also need Bryce to play like the QB we drafted him to be. I want to be optimistic and predict a winning season, but it’s really difficult as a Panthers fan!
