I have no idea what BB is asking me, or why. Do you Gustav?
BearsBud is an interesting individual. A complicated man, who doesn't feel the need to adhere to conventional social norms. As to your query concerning why he is asking you that, my best guess is that as you age your thoughts become increasingly disorientated. This is why you see many elderly men yelling at squirrels that are in their yards.

ND is horrible.
Will nebraska ever get back to top 10 program status?

Do you regard them as a top 20 program currently? 25?

O/U on how many NC's the B1G gets in the next 12 yrs?

Was moving to the B1G a good decision for Nebbie?

Do you like trains and the history of trains?
Yes to both. My family has long been employed in the railroad industry. As far back as 1905, I have had as many as 20 members of my family tree work for the railroads, specifically the Rock Island. My great-grandfather actually worked long enough to receive the 'Golden Ticket' which essentially gave him a free ticket on any train, to anywhere in the country. Another fun fact is that I myself was the 4th generation of my family to work at the train yard at 123rd and Vincennes in Blue Island.

Given my history, I must say that I am very appreciative of your efforts to put forth the history of trains on this website.

I think it is going to be very tough battle for Nebraska to get back to the top 10 status. The homer in me puts them 15th nationally, but realistically they are probably outside the top 25 currently. I think long term moving to the Big 10 was a wise move for the Huskers, but it's going to be tough for them to compete nationally let alone conference wise.

As for your question of the conference as a whole, I can see at least 3 to 4 national championships coming to the Big 10. I think the more competitive the conference gets (because I feel they've been down for the last 5 or so years), because of coaching (Harbaugh, Jerry Kill, Urban Meyer) will be the deciding factor.

This is actual an almost letter perfect answer.

Now, don't forget to leave out the new PSU coach as he is recruiting a top 10 class currently and as much as it pains me, he has a good chance to get PSU to top 25 status at some point.

Thanks for the strong reply.....we should do more CFB stuff on here!

My apologies, you're absolutely correct about Penn State.
