@4oh2boNEyard "Not good”? Last year Wilson had 37 punts: only 6 returned, 12 inside the 20, and just 23 return yards allowed all season.
This year: 6 punts, ZERO return yards.
He averaged 49.2 vs Michigan and 55.5 vs Northwestern. Judging an Aussie punter by gross average is a bad take.
🚨 General Dan Caine just laid out the gritty reality of the two Iran pilot rescues.
F-15 Strike Eagle Dude 44 downed in hostile territory. Daylight rescue for the front-seater: A-10 Warthogs in Sandy role went toe-to-toe with the enemy in a gunfight so the Jolly Greens could get in and extract him under fire.
One A-10 hit, pilot still completed the mission and ejected safely later.
Night rescue for the injured back-seater: larger force fought through weather, enemy search, and multiple contingencies. Brought him home Easter Sunday after nearly 48 hours of evasion.
Every American accounted for. Rescue motto in action: “These things we do that others may live.”
General Caine to enemies: we will come get our people anywhere, anytime.

Great stuff from Terence Bud Crawford speaking to the #Huskers the night before the Colorado game.

I can confirm that Iowa star CB/PR Cooper DeJean has sustained an injury during practice. Will likely miss the remainder of the regular season-- status unclear about potential bowl game. (This has not been made official by KF or Iowa.)

Regardless of what happens in the Nebraska-Iowa game on Black Friday, the Big Ten West will complete a full "Circle of Suck" in it's final season.

I've never seen a ref crew have this kind of impact in a game with reviews, calls, etc. That was not pass interference and it should have not been placed at the 3.
