Heartbreaking. I only met Matt a few times, but every time he was genuine, welcoming, kind, and endearing.
Indeed, ldown and distance indicators were lacking and difficult to see.
Nebraska will get 9 wins, including a loss in the B1G Championship.
Iowa is still too new in the "rivalry battle." I've hated Colorado since Bill McCartney. That level of vehement detesting doesn't fade.
Do you guys ever update this?
