For the Big10rs in the room, a taste of the insanity you will be greeted with at your athletic stadia this autumn.
From Huskerpedia (13 page thread):
Texas=power, coruption and gold Over the weekend, an announcement was made that the University of Texas endowment fund had decided to take delivery of $1 billion worth of gold. This was an absolutely huge development on multiple fronts.
First, the UT endowment fund’s gold purchase was a radical deviation from the standard institutional portfolio, the possibility of which we have considered for some time. Since UT has about $20 billion in assets, a $1 billion gold allocation would indicate 5% of its assets in gold. The standard institutional allocation to gold is 1%; a 5% allocation is a huge increase
Dallas ***hedge-fund manager*** J. Kyle Bass helped advise the University of Texas Investment Management Co. on taking delivery of 6,643 gold bars, worth $991.7 million yesterday, that are stored in a bank warehouse in New York.
HUSKER FANS I DONT THINK ANYONE TRULY UNDERSTANDS JUST HOW POWERFUL AND CORRUPT THEY ARE DOWN THERE. THANK TOM EVERY TIME YOU SEE HIM FOR GETTING US AWAY FROM THEM. THEY WILL BUY YOU OFF AND THEN SELL YOU. LOW DOWN AND DIRTY AND HAVE THE MONEY TO DO WHATEVER THE HELL THEY WANT.
Everything you could want from a huskerpedia post. Texas new world order conspiracy? Check. Bizarre adoration of Dr. Tom? Check. Fiat money, Gold or Gold Standard talk? Check. Complete lack of self-awareness? Check.
Also, they seem genuine in their "well wishes" for Cody Green which makes me think he sucks. Whenever someone good leaves they flip out.
Remember when they gave Nebraska a share of our 97 national title for a Tom Osbourne 'retirement gift' ?? OMG !! That was lame as crap..
Must feel totally hollow to Nebraska fans to have that 'title' that everyone knows they don't deserve..

Who has the crystal and who has the wooden trophy??
It was Vegas who had NU as 2 td favorites if the two met for the championship.
tOSU was averaging 4+ yds a carry against your defense that year. NU had the #1 rushing offense in the country at the time. Would of ran all over MU.
Crushing the Peyton Manning led Vol's 42-17 while MU barely got by Wash. St in their respective bowl games.
That's some convoluted logic you've got there.
We have the Sears trophy dude, it's literally on display at Schembechler Hall, (you can get your picture taken with it totally awesome) also that Vegas thing is pure myth.. So let me get this straight, Vegas released odds on a game that was never played and never scheduled to be played ?? and you were 14 point favorites ??
Washington St. was ranked about the same as UT at that time and UT was notorious for losing any game that mattered, we were ranked #1 for a longer period of time.. had a much higher SOS, beat both of our common opponents by like 35 combined more points, had the #1 rushing defense in the country (and total defense and still one of the best D's stats wise of all time in college football, but I don't wanna brag), and didn't need to play illegal kickball to beat anyone, let alone Missouri..
There is really no conceivable way that we didn't deserve it over you, I didn't even think you guys recognized it, wasn't it universally understood that it was just a going away present for Dr. Tom.. I mean, Lloyd didn't have to beg for it at a press conference even, it was just understood we were national champs, Dr. Tom lobbied and everyone felt bad because he ws retiring.. You seriously didn't know this ?? You gotta start following the Huskers man, you're missing some good football and historic moments..
In your mind I suppose that holds true ANYONE who watched both teams play knew better. Tom lobbied no one. He already had 4 NC's How many did Carr have? Who got the gift???
Oh, And by the way when I get home I'll send you a link to all the above to prove the facts.
Obviously not dude, clearly we had a crap ton of voters who saw both teams and knew we were better.. I'm sure the fans recognized our superiority as well, you guys should of had a loss but you got away with your guy kicking the ball to another receiver at the last second.. Did you not watch Tom's press conference after your bowl game when he was begging the voters to give him a share ?? I guess I don't know what lobbying is then, we were #1 going into the bowl games (where we just ho hum beat another ranked opponent) so Lloyd just got to talk about how awesome it was to win an NC.. We won the AP poll, you won the coaches poll so it was clearly a gift from the coaches, everyone knows the coaches poll is the worst one because coaches don't watch the game..
Besides how were you better than a team with oodles of NFL'ers (Charles Woodson, Steve Hutchinson, Dhani Jones, Ian Gold, Jeff Backus, James Hall, John Runyan, Glen Steele, William Peterson, Anthony Thomas, Tai Streets, Brian Griese, Josh Williams, Jerame Tuman, Aaron Shea, Chris Howard) there is quite a few pro Bowlers in there.. Obviously everyone on Baylor and Colorado (our common opponents) thought we were better too, man tough break for you guys.. I feel bad that I had to drop all this info on you, you had yourself convinced..
