Huskers, MotoGP

The Huskers lose a heartbreaker in Lincoln to the 5th ranked Texas Longhorns. I really thought this game was in the bag until the Nunn turnover. I can't blame Nunn at all. It was a solid hit, and it changed the football game. It happens, and I think that the players and coaches have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. It was a great effort against a great team, and hopefully we will get a rematch in the conference championship.

Nicky Hayden and Dani Pedrosa have a tall order ahead of them in this weekend's final race in Valencia. Being teammates for Respol Honda, they encountered quite a bit of controversy when Pedrosa slid into Hayden on lap 5 in Portugal last week. That wreck took both out of the race, and sent Valentino Rossi ahead of Hayden in the points standing for this year's championship. The stars need to align for Nicky to take his first championship. The sad thing: it's the last race of the year.
