I predicted a 34-31 win for Nebraska in the prediction video. I said if Nebraska could eliminate the turnovers and penalties, the Huskers would win easily. It looked like Nebraska would take control of the game, and then POW! BAD THING HAPPENED and everything turned to after that.I have a book out! On August 21st, 2015, I unexpectedly dropped dead of a widowmaker heart attack. I was shocked five times on the way to the hospital with no response. I was shocked two more times in the ER. I was dead for over 20 minutes. A stent was placed, and I was induced into a coma. In January 2016 I received a second stent and in June I was diagnosed with an anoxic brain injury.I wrote a book about my death and recovery. The title, “Been Dead, Never Been To Europe” reflects the ironic nature of life, what happens versus what we want to happen.

So how much worry is there, really?Also, conference alliances are brought up, and the trio looks at ways to simplify the telecast experience. Greg wonders aloud if there is a market for PPV games again like in the Big XII days except higher quality and fewer commercials. As in...no commercials.And we are DRINKING THAT KOOL-AID and running down our win/loss predictions for the entire season.Lastly...something got screwed up on the audio at times so we apologize and while we sometimes have a backup audio feed, we didn’t this week and you can tell. So sorry in advance.GBR! Always. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
