They think volleyball is a top notch sport. Reality is, it sits 6th behind Football, MBB, Baseball, Wrestling, WBB in that order.
They are elite at women's volleyball, bowling, living in the past, and bragging about spring game attendance
Is 1990s football considered a current sport?
Really good at being delusional about where they stand in the college sports hierarchy.
Always yo’ ass talkin’ ‘bout mommas.
Come to Atlanta so we can fight bar.
If you are insinuating I’m a Husker fan you are incorrect Mepo. But it’s not like we are tearing it up in any sport outside wrestling.
However, we are pretty decent in many sports which is why being a Hawkeye fan is enjoyable pretty much year round.
We're putting it together again in baseball, but the ceiling in that sport for us is pretty low. We'll likely never compete with SEC, ACC teams again, even if we were a dominant Big XII team back in the 2000s.
We're good at wrestling, but it's a sport that has only 80 universities competing in Division I, so it's not that big of a deal to be in the top 10. We have a good base of fans for that sport, but obviously not as passionate as Iowa's or Penn State's.
Of course volleyball is awesome, and it makes money for UNL, so it's a big deal to us.
Women's hoops is improving and should be a 9-10 type seed in the NCAA tournament. They're starting to get attention because of Fred's destruction of the men's program.
Bowling and rifle are great, but who cares? They're like field hockey at Iowa — a lot of imports in a niche sport making the athletic department look marginally better than it really is.

I could be wrong….. but I don’t think they really release balloons anymore? Maybe once or twice a season?
Pretty certain it’s still every game. Sometimes it’s just a long way into the game
LoL - i was just being a smart ass. Meaning they maybe score a couple times a year…..
