I was musing about how many ways there are to misspell Nebraska intelligibly.

Nebaskra
Nabreaska
Bennraska
Benraska
Nebbieraska
Nethrathka
Nebrathka

I guess this might leave some flat.

You forgot the most famous one, at least to Omaha natives. 

Aksarben.

I'm sure there are more, I had not heard of that one, nor Nebrathka either, with an apparent lispth.

I wonder what it is spelled backwards?

Wait, Omaha natives refer to UNL as the prison-city in Harry Potter?

That actually makes sense somehow.

My first ever Horse Track I ever went to was Aksarben Park.  That was such a huge place to a little kid.   I think now it's turned into a mixed use village of some kind just south of UNO.  Pretty area.

I was always told the name came from the Aksarben Knights which were going to turn Nebraska around during the depression or maybe sooner

Benraska was my pick to win the B1G this year, so they need to bring it.
this game will tell us if Benraska has a chance to win the B1G

if they're not bringing it to this game, they don't have it

Offensive coordinator Troy Walters coached at Colorado from 2013-15, and he’s looking forward to the return to Boulder.

“When I coached there, you couldn’t wear anything red,” he said. “Great rivalry. I told our guys to embrace it all."


>> Kicker Barret Pickering was still not in uniform on Wednesday. Wide receiver Kade Warner, however, was back in pads. Warner also missed the season opener.

>> Quarterbacks coach Mario Verduzco took the blame for Saturday on himself, calling the outing “piss poor.” He also said he won’t make any excuses for what happened, and that he needs to do a better job coaching and getting quarterback Adrian Martinez ready to go.

>> Offensive line coach Greg Austin said he got hit in the head by an orange thrown from the crowd when Nebraska played at Colorado in 2005, the "Restore the Order" game.

McCartney enforced all of that stuff.  Ridding Boulder of Big Red soda and gum.

I only went out to Boulder in 95, when Skippy was coaching, and he did that dumb War time chant and had the team enter the field from the student section.  Ahman Green took the first Nebraska play for 65 yards and a TD.  No flags, no turnovers, no sacks all game.  I think a missed fga was about the only mistake all day.  Frazier was brilliant that game.

great game, Osborne has mentioned that was as close to a flawless game as he coached
