Executing the Friday Show

WEBVTT
1
00:00:00.230 --> 00:00:03.890
Finally, Friday, glad to have you here on News Radio
2
00:00:03.890 --> 00:00:08.369
1110 KFAB with Craig Evans, Courtney Dunahoe and Lucy Chapman.
3
00:00:08.970 --> 00:00:12.460
I'm Scott Voorhees. And one of the most infuriating things
4
00:00:12.550 --> 00:00:15.580
I say to the lovely and talented Jim Rose is
5
00:00:15.619 --> 00:00:18.219
when he starts talking with me about something there during
6
00:00:18.260 --> 00:00:20.559
the words from our sponsors and the news and all that.
7
00:00:20.620 --> 00:00:23.600
It's like, Jim, I don't care what you have to
8
00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:26.320
say if we're not on the radio. Wait till the
9
00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:29.429
microphones are on. Well, I like to warm up. I
10
00:00:29.469 --> 00:00:31.809
like to practice. Oh, that was you. I wonder why
11
00:00:31.829 --> 00:00:33.009
you had the batting donut on.
12
00:00:33.030 --> 00:00:33.490
Yeah, that was it.
13
00:00:33.490 --> 00:00:39.359
I thought that was excessive. You think that Nebraska has
14
00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:42.719
less to lose. No, I think Nebraska has more to lose. Oh,
15
00:00:42.740 --> 00:00:44.960
you think Nebraska has more to lose in this game
16
00:00:44.979 --> 00:00:49.380
than Indiana. That's right. I disagree with your assessment. This
17
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:52.710
is a credibility game. This is a statement game. This
18
00:00:52.810 --> 00:00:55.829
is a we are back on the way back. we
19
00:00:55.890 --> 00:01:00.729
are ready to start meeting expectations game. Uh, and quite honestly, uh,
20
00:01:00.869 --> 00:01:04.900
Indiana has not played an elite offensive line. I'm, I'm
21
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:07.519
not suggesting Nebraska's offensive line is elite, but I think
22
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:10.299
it's better than any offensive line they've played against so far.
23
00:01:10.780 --> 00:01:14.760
They have great defensive stats, but both stats for both
24
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:17.420
teams are with an asterisk. And that is, you haven't
25
00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:21.629
played anybody good yet. Now, after this Saturday, both of
26
00:01:21.670 --> 00:01:23.450
them can say, we've played somebody good.
27
00:01:23.590 --> 00:01:23.909
Yeah.
28
00:01:24.370 --> 00:01:27.799
And, um, I just believe when you're the defending national champion,
29
00:01:27.819 --> 00:01:30.709
you're on a honeymoon. You did all the heavy lifting
30
00:01:30.750 --> 00:01:33.769
last year. And I think Indiana has designs on getting
31
00:01:33.810 --> 00:01:37.510
back into the playoffs this year. But Nebraska needs to
32
00:01:37.590 --> 00:01:41.730
beat a ranked team quite badly. We'll have a few
33
00:01:41.790 --> 00:01:44.950
opportunities yet this year. And going to Oregon next week
34
00:01:45.329 --> 00:01:48.430
holds less promise for that than I think tomorrow's game.
35
00:01:49.069 --> 00:01:51.519
So I just think the heat's on here. And I'll
36
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:52.140
never forget.
37
00:01:52.900 --> 00:01:56.280
Something that Bo Pelini said, oh, gosh, it was probably five, six,
38
00:01:56.310 --> 00:01:56.890
seven years ago.
39
00:01:56.909 --> 00:02:00.189
Are you sure you can say it on the radio?
40
00:02:00.689 --> 00:02:02.989
No, he was on a podcast, and he was talking
41
00:02:03.010 --> 00:02:05.510
about his time at Nebraska, and he wasn't trashing the program.
42
00:02:05.969 --> 00:02:08.229
He said, one of the things that I learned coaching
43
00:02:08.270 --> 00:02:10.680
at Nebraska was how much pressure the Nebraska kids put
44
00:02:10.740 --> 00:02:13.699
on themselves. He may have been speaking about the Nebraska
45
00:02:13.740 --> 00:02:17.039
native kids, but he said the Nebraska kids put so
46
00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:20.439
much pressure on themselves. It's the pressure of expectations. You
47
00:02:20.580 --> 00:02:23.340
walk through that stadium, you see all the national championship banners,
48
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:25.039
and you see the names of the great players, and
49
00:02:25.530 --> 00:02:27.530
the fans are always talking about the good old days.
50
00:02:27.569 --> 00:02:29.370
And so the kids really feel a lot of heat.
51
00:02:29.990 --> 00:02:33.150
And he said it was really hard to overcome that because,
52
00:02:34.030 --> 00:02:35.750
you know, you want your kids to be confident. You
53
00:02:35.780 --> 00:02:37.699
want your players to be confident, but you don't want
54
00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:40.580
them to worry about the outcome of the game. And
55
00:02:40.639 --> 00:02:43.479
he said we had problems in that area. Now, he
56
00:02:43.500 --> 00:02:46.020
didn't blame himself for it, but he said we had problems.
57
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:49.120
And I think that's true. And one of the things
58
00:02:49.139 --> 00:02:52.400
that I've contended for a long time is that Nebraska's great,
59
00:02:52.460 --> 00:02:56.300
great tradition of winning is both a tremendous plus and
60
00:02:57.159 --> 00:03:00.939
a great bane, too, because you're constantly having to live
61
00:03:01.030 --> 00:03:04.669
up to somebody else's expectations as a player here. And
62
00:03:05.030 --> 00:03:08.090
it's hard on them. Now, that said, move to 2026.
63
00:03:08.090 --> 00:03:11.370
We don't have guys that have been in the program
64
00:03:11.430 --> 00:03:15.379
four or five years anymore. We have mercenaries. We have imports.
65
00:03:15.659 --> 00:03:18.280
We have free agents. And they don't have any of
66
00:03:18.340 --> 00:03:21.319
that package. They come in here and say, I'm here
67
00:03:21.340 --> 00:03:23.860
for the money, which is largely the reason they're here.
68
00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:27.509
And I'm here to win, get myself ready for the NFL.
69
00:03:27.990 --> 00:03:31.150
And they don't pay any attention to the stuff that
70
00:03:31.449 --> 00:03:34.469
used to just sort of stew in Nebraska kids for years.
71
00:03:35.069 --> 00:03:38.400
So we'll see how it goes tomorrow. But there's a
72
00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:40.500
lot of pressure on this coaching staff. There's a lot
73
00:03:40.539 --> 00:03:43.210
of pressure on this quarterback. There's a lot of pressure
74
00:03:43.310 --> 00:03:46.810
on the Nebraska kids because this is a game they've
75
00:03:46.849 --> 00:03:50.240
been looking at as, okay, if we can win this one,
76
00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:54.439
now we've established that we're on our way back and
77
00:03:54.620 --> 00:03:55.659
it's not a mirage.
78
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:58.439
Do you think most Husker fans agree with your assessment
79
00:03:59.979 --> 00:04:02.819
that Nebraska has to win this game? I think most
80
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:05.379
Nebraska fans are sick and tired of losing. And I
81
00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:07.580
think Nebraska fans are sick and tired of going 0-30
82
00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:09.819
against ranked teams.
83
00:04:10.620 --> 00:04:14.719
I think Nebraska fans are on the edge. They are looking,
84
00:04:14.979 --> 00:04:17.620
staring down the barrel of a massive receipt of the
85
00:04:17.660 --> 00:04:22.850
stadium next year. And anecdotally, I'll tell you, Scott, and anecdotally,
86
00:04:22.930 --> 00:04:27.470
please emphasize that word. There's nothing scientific about this. A
87
00:04:27.550 --> 00:04:29.810
lot of Nebraska fans are ready to give up the tickets.
88
00:04:29.850 --> 00:04:34.110
They're going, if they take my tickets away, fine. Good
89
00:04:34.149 --> 00:04:37.360
luck getting somebody to donate $ 100, 000 for four seats.
90
00:04:37.389 --> 00:04:37.620
Right.
91
00:04:37.689 --> 00:04:40.100
Well, they can only get that money if someone gives
92
00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:40.600
it to them.
93
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:40.839
Right.
94
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:43.879
At some point, it'll be like the sellout streak, which,
95
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:46.939
by the way, are there still tickets available for tomorrow's game?
96
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:47.360
I don't know.
97
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:48.180
Let me look.
98
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:48.360
Really?
99
00:04:48.420 --> 00:04:49.120
Well, I should know that.
100
00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:49.779
Maybe.
101
00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:52.680
I think Indiana bought– I think the Indiana fans bought
102
00:04:52.699 --> 00:04:56.370
all of those seats. And so– Yeah, I mean, this
103
00:04:56.449 --> 00:04:58.310
is a great, this will be a fun day. It'll
104
00:04:58.329 --> 00:05:01.019
be a beautiful day, more of a summer-like day. I
105
00:05:01.060 --> 00:05:02.899
guess the weather forecast is for a lot of heat.
106
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:05.139
Kind of windy. A little bit breezy out there.
107
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:08.699
But as it relates to football and the investment that
108
00:05:08.740 --> 00:05:13.189
we've made in football, and there are very few schools
109
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:15.769
that have invested as much in football as Nebraska has.
110
00:05:16.329 --> 00:05:18.750
This is one of those games you have to win.
111
00:05:19.170 --> 00:05:21.949
I think nationally people expect Indiana to come in here
112
00:05:21.970 --> 00:05:22.120
and win.
113
00:05:22.129 --> 00:05:22.290
I know.
114
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:28.069
And if they do, I don't think that nationally Nebraska
115
00:05:28.129 --> 00:05:31.410
has as much to lose as Indiana does. Yeah, but
116
00:05:31.449 --> 00:05:34.310
the only thing that matters is the folks here. I've
117
00:05:34.329 --> 00:05:35.089
always thought so.
118
00:05:35.670 --> 00:05:38.680
I just really believe this is one of those games that, look,
119
00:05:39.019 --> 00:05:41.720
at some point you've got to stop preparing to win
120
00:05:41.779 --> 00:05:42.660
and you've got to win.
121
00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:46.319
President Trump says anyone who uses the term artificial intelligence
122
00:05:46.379 --> 00:05:50.629
instead of super intelligence is the enemy. Trump's executive order
123
00:05:50.670 --> 00:05:53.610
last month doubled down on the term, which specifically defines
124
00:05:53.649 --> 00:05:58.810
superintelligence using the existing federal legal definition of AI. The
125
00:05:58.850 --> 00:06:01.389
White House still uses AI as a term, including on
126
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:05.399
the Office of Science and Technology Policy website. I'm Craig Evans.
127
00:06:05.439 --> 00:06:07.579
More news at the bottom of the hour at NewsRadio
128
00:06:07.579 --> 00:06:09.319
1110 KFAB.
129
00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:13.899
Sorry, Mr. President, I can't go with you on the
130
00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:17.230
AI versus SI stuff. As I mentioned the other day,
131
00:06:17.290 --> 00:06:21.350
I hear SIA. And I think of Sports Illustrated. And
132
00:06:21.370 --> 00:06:24.490
I think just about every other guy that grew up
133
00:06:24.649 --> 00:06:30.230
in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, they hear SI and
134
00:06:30.250 --> 00:06:34.269
they think Sports Illustrated. They don't think super intelligence. But
135
00:06:36.540 --> 00:06:39.100
we're still talking about the same thing. It's just a renaming, right?
136
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:42.339
I know, but I call it the Golf of America.
137
00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:47.100
And we've got a big hurricane. Isaias is bearing down
138
00:06:47.220 --> 00:06:50.740
on the Gulf of America here today. Major flooding there.
139
00:06:50.860 --> 00:06:54.220
This is Mayor Ewing and other city officials had to
140
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:57.220
tell a bunch of people who live in a mobile
141
00:06:57.259 --> 00:07:03.399
home park in Millard. Millard Woods, 22 residences in that community.
142
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:10.139
The mayor announced yesterday that these particular homes there are unlivable.
143
00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:14.180
following the flooding of a week ago. And if you're
144
00:07:14.259 --> 00:07:17.660
thinking mobile home park in Miller, there is no such
145
00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:21.199
thing over there. Yes, there is. It's, you know, where
146
00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:25.220
Hobby Lobby, Sergeant Peppers is, there's a Papillion Creek goes
147
00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:29.430
right through there, right at that intersection of Miller Avenue
148
00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:32.949
and like 132nd Street, or is it Q Street here,
149
00:07:33.189 --> 00:07:37.769
where that all comes together on the northwest side behind
150
00:07:37.810 --> 00:07:41.220
the businesses there. There's a mobile home park back there,
151
00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:45.319
and 22 of those residents will not be able to
152
00:07:45.379 --> 00:07:48.220
live there. One guy was talking to First Alert 6 News, says,
153
00:07:48.259 --> 00:07:51.779
I've lived here almost my entire life, and described how
154
00:07:51.819 --> 00:07:54.480
when the floodwaters were about chest high for some of
155
00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:57.800
those residences, it was really weird because all the stray
156
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:00.189
cats in the neighborhood were just floating by.
157
00:08:00.819 --> 00:08:01.230
Brian?
158
00:08:02.730 --> 00:08:03.189
Brian.
159
00:08:03.990 --> 00:08:07.370
Brian Setzer? No, not those stray cats.
160
00:08:07.430 --> 00:08:07.569
See?
161
00:08:08.500 --> 00:08:11.899
Actual animals in that community um that's.
162
00:08:11.779 --> 00:08:15.180
Terrible i can't i can't imagine i mean this doesn't
163
00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:16.839
even register in my brain.
164
00:08:16.779 --> 00:08:20.110
Yeah all right you can't you can't think about all
165
00:08:20.129 --> 00:08:22.490
right we have a flat area land there's no valley
166
00:08:22.529 --> 00:08:24.649
or anything through there how in the world do you
167
00:08:24.689 --> 00:08:28.610
get chest high deep water through you did.
168
00:08:28.410 --> 00:08:29.829
At 370 and 25th street did you know that was
169
00:08:29.870 --> 00:08:30.290
flooded also.
170
00:08:34.259 --> 00:08:37.460
I saw pictures of that. Yeah, Bellevue. Shocking. Oh, yeah.
171
00:08:37.980 --> 00:08:38.480
Shocking.
172
00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:38.919
Yeah.
173
00:08:39.419 --> 00:08:42.360
And that was a week ago. And some of these,
174
00:08:42.500 --> 00:08:44.480
I don't know where they've been living for the past week.
175
00:08:44.860 --> 00:08:47.600
Some of them probably still been living in these houses,
176
00:08:47.919 --> 00:08:52.220
these residences, in this case, trailers. You know, when they
177
00:08:52.259 --> 00:08:54.759
tell you you can't go back and live in your trailer,
178
00:08:55.720 --> 00:08:58.659
where are you supposed to go? It's true.
179
00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:02.799
This is a problem. These people deserve dignity. They got
180
00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:05.480
no place to live. And what we found in Millard
181
00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:08.220
is many of them are living under bridges there. And
182
00:09:08.259 --> 00:09:10.580
we don't want any more people than necessary living under
183
00:09:10.600 --> 00:09:12.700
the bridges over the Papio Creek in Millard.
184
00:09:12.840 --> 00:09:15.860
That is an area of Millard that Sheriff Hanson and
185
00:09:15.960 --> 00:09:17.879
I a few years ago went out there and we
186
00:09:17.919 --> 00:09:21.159
talked to people who were living homeless in that area
187
00:09:21.419 --> 00:09:23.259
and saw some of the debris. There was a kid
188
00:09:23.279 --> 00:09:25.399
who was attacked out there on his bike a couple
189
00:09:25.419 --> 00:09:30.230
of years ago. It's not exactly a slice of heaven there.
190
00:09:30.350 --> 00:09:33.169
But for some people, it is home. What are they
191
00:09:33.190 --> 00:09:37.129
supposed to do? They're working with them. Zoran Mamdani, the
192
00:09:37.309 --> 00:09:39.879
mayor of New York City, wants to bomb ICE.
193
00:09:40.019 --> 00:09:43.580
ICE operates with impunity, that they sow chaos and terror
194
00:09:43.639 --> 00:09:46.460
across our country, that they have killed far more of
195
00:09:46.539 --> 00:09:49.259
our neighbors than they could ever have claimed to save.
196
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:50.879
Oh, really? That's what he says.
197
00:09:51.059 --> 00:09:53.649
You want to play that again? He didn't really say that,
198
00:09:53.690 --> 00:09:55.769
did he? Did he say they've killed more of our
199
00:09:55.830 --> 00:09:58.029
neighbors than saved them? Let's run back the tape.
200
00:09:58.149 --> 00:10:01.700
ICE operates with impunity... that they sow chaos and terror
201
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:04.590
across our country, that they have killed far more of
202
00:10:04.669 --> 00:10:06.669
our neighbors than they could ever.
203
00:10:06.529 --> 00:10:09.919
Have claimed to save. What a moron. Oh, there's more.
204
00:10:09.940 --> 00:10:11.090
There's more?
205
00:10:11.110 --> 00:10:13.539
Yeah, he also said... No, really, I don't need to
206
00:10:13.610 --> 00:10:15.309
hear more because I just had breakfast.
207
00:10:15.330 --> 00:10:16.309
Yeah, yeah, no, listen to this.
208
00:10:16.450 --> 00:10:19.649
New York City will not stand by while ICE agents
209
00:10:19.710 --> 00:10:23.149
shoot New Yorkers. And we will not back down from
210
00:10:23.169 --> 00:10:26.149
the demand that so many, including myself, have put forward
211
00:10:26.490 --> 00:10:30.370
time and again. This is an agency that must be abolished.
212
00:10:30.909 --> 00:10:32.149
I don't know if you can hear it if you're
213
00:10:32.169 --> 00:10:34.490
driving around in your car this morning. I have headphones on.
214
00:10:34.509 --> 00:10:36.029
There's just someone in the background just going.
215
00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:41.830
It reminds me of the protest in France where people
216
00:10:41.870 --> 00:10:44.990
are burning. That same mindset, by the way, that Zoran
217
00:10:45.009 --> 00:10:48.570
Mamdani has is burning France to the ground. Well, maybe
218
00:10:48.590 --> 00:10:51.830
they deserve it. But ICE is the problem. We've had
219
00:10:51.889 --> 00:10:54.389
revolutions in France before. They've survived.
220
00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:55.440
Yes.
221
00:10:55.580 --> 00:10:58.899
One time they chopped off the queen's head. There's no
222
00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:03.899
queen over there anymore. So Mayor Mamdani. Does he know,
223
00:11:04.179 --> 00:11:06.120
by the way, who this guy was? Do you have
224
00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:11.009
any idea? Why ICE shot this guy? It could be
225
00:11:11.129 --> 00:11:13.190
that they're like, I don't like the look on that
226
00:11:13.250 --> 00:11:16.870
guy's face. Shoot him. Shoot him right in the face.
227
00:11:17.149 --> 00:11:21.889
Or it could be that his actions, not just at
228
00:11:21.950 --> 00:11:24.169
that moment, which is, by the way, why you get
229
00:11:24.250 --> 00:11:26.360
shot in the streets of New York City, your actions
230
00:11:26.389 --> 00:11:30.000
in the moment, as well as why ICE was targeting
231
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:32.659
him in the first place, his actions leading up to
232
00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:36.019
why this whole thing happened. Do you have any idea?
233
00:11:36.059 --> 00:11:38.830
Does it matter to you? I'm guessing. It doesn't matter
234
00:11:38.850 --> 00:11:42.529
to him. It's all the political narrative, Scott.
235
00:11:42.629 --> 00:11:45.440
And the Republicans that are running for office need to
236
00:11:45.500 --> 00:11:48.100
take advantage of that. That is the face of the
237
00:11:48.139 --> 00:11:52.179
Democrat Party in this country, Zoran Mondani or AOC or
238
00:11:52.220 --> 00:11:52.980
Bernie Sanders.
239
00:11:53.539 --> 00:11:54.860
And this is what he's saying.
240
00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:59.440
We really, truly need to protect the rights of a criminal,
241
00:11:59.659 --> 00:12:02.929
illegal alien who has at least one conviction for grand
242
00:12:02.970 --> 00:12:05.570
larceny and who is tied to one of the notorious
243
00:12:05.629 --> 00:12:08.799
gangs in all of New York City. This guy was
244
00:12:08.899 --> 00:12:12.600
about to get arrested. He resisted arrest. He tried to
245
00:12:12.700 --> 00:12:15.129
ram the ICE agents with his car. That's what it
246
00:12:15.169 --> 00:12:18.169
sounds like. And yet this guy is the one who
247
00:12:18.230 --> 00:12:21.549
needs protection from the mayor of New York City. This
248
00:12:21.649 --> 00:12:24.649
is where the Democrats are on law and order.
249
00:12:25.250 --> 00:12:27.480
Now, you can sit and say, I'm not one of them. Yeah,
250
00:12:27.500 --> 00:12:27.899
you are.
251
00:12:28.259 --> 00:12:31.740
This is your guy. And this is what America needs
252
00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:34.740
to know about these people. They all believe in justice.
253
00:12:35.210 --> 00:12:39.350
And ending funding for ICE, disbanding ICE, which is immigration
254
00:12:39.409 --> 00:12:43.750
and customs enforcement. That means we have laws that were
255
00:12:43.809 --> 00:12:47.649
collectively debated and then passed into law, signed into law.
256
00:12:48.429 --> 00:12:51.549
And these people are responsible for enforcing them. When is
257
00:12:51.590 --> 00:12:52.289
this group.
258
00:12:52.110 --> 00:12:55.190
Going to start enforcing the customs part of this? I
259
00:12:55.230 --> 00:12:59.289
want people who didn't declare items. You know, they brought
260
00:12:59.330 --> 00:13:02.389
some spinach or something into the country illegally and didn't
261
00:13:02.429 --> 00:13:05.309
declare it to customs agents. I want them shot on
262
00:13:05.350 --> 00:13:07.710
the streets as well. And it seems like it's only immigration.
263
00:13:08.070 --> 00:13:10.429
And I want that customs thing. If you didn't pay
264
00:13:10.470 --> 00:13:13.789
your duty tax on some necklace you got over in
265
00:13:13.889 --> 00:13:16.980
Spain and you're sneaking into this country, you should be shot.
266
00:13:17.340 --> 00:13:19.360
Let me make a note of that next time I
267
00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:20.179
talk to the president.
268
00:13:20.299 --> 00:13:20.960
I'll bring that up.
269
00:13:20.980 --> 00:13:21.600
Thank you.
270
00:13:21.639 --> 00:13:25.019
This is where the country is politically. You either believe
271
00:13:25.059 --> 00:13:27.679
in the rule of law or you don't. And these
272
00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:30.659
people for the last, well, ever since Donald Trump became
273
00:13:30.740 --> 00:13:34.100
president in 2016, certainly since He took over the second
274
00:13:34.139 --> 00:13:38.200
time in 2024. He has tried to get these criminals
275
00:13:38.340 --> 00:13:41.679
out of the country. These are criminals that hurt Americans,
276
00:13:41.750 --> 00:13:44.809
that hurt innocent people. Why in heaven's name would you
277
00:13:44.870 --> 00:13:48.649
support defending them and then ask me for my vote?
278
00:13:49.009 --> 00:13:51.909
Well, he's also asking the president to do something.
279
00:13:51.950 --> 00:13:54.929
I've been on the phone with President Trump and Secretary
280
00:13:54.970 --> 00:13:59.429
Mullen negotiating the release of the man ICE agents shot.
281
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:03.120
Those negotiations were unsuccessful.
282
00:14:04.220 --> 00:14:06.399
Oh, here you go. What's he going to do? Live
283
00:14:06.440 --> 00:14:06.840
with you?
284
00:14:06.860 --> 00:14:10.820
Okay, so my question would be release into what? Into
285
00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:11.700
your custody?
286
00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:12.500
He's in the hospital.
287
00:14:12.519 --> 00:14:17.269
Release them to his native country, which was the Dominican Republic.
288
00:14:18.070 --> 00:14:20.909
Release him to who or what? Just let him go?
289
00:14:21.350 --> 00:14:23.769
Just maybe give him a bus ticket across town?
290
00:14:23.789 --> 00:14:23.860
Yep.
291
00:14:24.659 --> 00:14:28.700
This is so hard for me to process because this
292
00:14:28.779 --> 00:14:31.820
is a country where we are supposed to follow laws.
293
00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:35.120
And to have the mayor of the largest city in
294
00:14:35.139 --> 00:14:39.299
the country stand up and say, we need to protect
295
00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:43.039
the rights of that guy, okay? Forget about what he does.
296
00:14:43.460 --> 00:14:46.419
Forget about what he is. The only thing that matters
297
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.169
is that he be treated well.
298
00:14:49.299 --> 00:14:51.879
Well, he doesn't deserve to get shot for being an
299
00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:55.240
illegal immigrant, but I don't think that's why I shot him, Mr. Mayor.
300
00:14:55.259 --> 00:14:58.769
They didn't shoot him just because they don't like his resume.
301
00:14:58.789 --> 00:15:01.970
It is now time for the Certified Transmission Sports Brief.
302
00:15:02.509 --> 00:15:05.950
Ladies and gentlemen and Husker fans, it's the Husker Buzz
303
00:15:06.169 --> 00:15:08.490
edition with Sean Callahan and Jim Rose.
304
00:15:08.590 --> 00:15:09.230
All right, Sean.
305
00:15:09.250 --> 00:15:10.879
Something's got to give tomorrow.
306
00:15:10.929 --> 00:15:14.620
I'm looking at these numbers, and Nebraska and Indiana both
307
00:15:14.659 --> 00:15:19.629
have about a 54% third-down efficiency on offense. And on defense,
308
00:15:19.710 --> 00:15:23.090
they hold the other team from getting a first down
309
00:15:24.029 --> 00:15:27.059
pretty much 80% of the time. So somebody's going to
310
00:15:27.080 --> 00:15:28.960
have to get a first down on third down tomorrow.
311
00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:33.840
Yeah, and Indiana is not a big blitzing team. They
312
00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:38.019
have a very good pressure rate with four. Nebraska has
313
00:15:38.639 --> 00:15:40.830
had good pressures as well as one of the leaders
314
00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:43.610
in sacks in the Big Ten. So there's a lot
315
00:15:43.629 --> 00:15:46.570
to it. I think for Rob Orch's defense on third down,
316
00:15:46.750 --> 00:15:48.889
can you get him in situations where he can sub
317
00:15:48.950 --> 00:15:50.970
in some of those packages that he likes to bring in?
318
00:15:50.990 --> 00:15:55.169
Because they've had really good success with that. Stopping the
319
00:15:55.210 --> 00:15:57.370
run to me is still– going to be one of
320
00:15:57.389 --> 00:16:00.100
the biggest things for this defense with Turbo Richard, who
321
00:16:00.139 --> 00:16:03.580
Nebraska's actually played before. They played Turbo Richard in the
322
00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:06.690
pinstripe bowl. He's at Boston College, and then Lee Beebe Jr.
323
00:16:06.710 --> 00:16:08.370
Those are as good.
324
00:16:08.250 --> 00:16:11.350
Of a one-two punch as you're going to see, but
325
00:16:11.389 --> 00:16:14.899
they've only played... really, you know, Northwestern at this point.
326
00:16:15.019 --> 00:16:19.230
You can obviously count Rutgers, too, but they're a lot
327
00:16:19.250 --> 00:16:22.509
like Nebraska in that regard. They haven't really played a big,
328
00:16:22.590 --> 00:16:25.070
tough Big Ten game other than maybe their Northwestern game,
329
00:16:25.350 --> 00:16:27.690
but that was in Bloomington, and they won that game
330
00:16:27.710 --> 00:16:28.289
by five points.
331
00:16:28.870 --> 00:16:32.059
Justin Evans says this team, his offensive line, is ready
332
00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:33.080
for this game.
333
00:16:33.139 --> 00:16:33.600
Do you agree?
334
00:16:36.120 --> 00:16:37.009
You know, they have to be.
335
00:16:37.389 --> 00:16:38.289
Again, I don't know.
336
00:16:38.389 --> 00:16:41.529
I mean, you hope they are. I mean, they've trained
337
00:16:41.570 --> 00:16:44.509
and gotten to this point. They've gotten better each week.
338
00:16:45.889 --> 00:16:48.850
They're veteran in a lot of areas. The portal pieces
339
00:16:48.870 --> 00:16:51.929
they brought in are good. The players they kept are
340
00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:54.919
playing better than they have been playing. So the quarterback
341
00:16:54.940 --> 00:16:56.799
play has improved from where it was a year ago.
342
00:16:56.820 --> 00:16:59.399
I mean, there's a lot of things that you like
343
00:16:59.460 --> 00:17:01.720
about Nebraska, and now we've got to find out if
344
00:17:01.759 --> 00:17:02.340
they're ready for a.
345
00:17:02.340 --> 00:17:02.820
Game like this.
346
00:17:03.259 --> 00:17:06.589
If you were Indiana defensive coordinator Brian Haynes, how would
347
00:17:06.609 --> 00:17:08.029
you play Anthony Calandria?
348
00:17:09.750 --> 00:17:12.710
I think you're going to see kind of a midfield
349
00:17:12.809 --> 00:17:17.309
zone where they keep eyes on Calandria or they don't
350
00:17:17.349 --> 00:17:20.710
let him run, and they won't blitz him a lot.
351
00:17:20.789 --> 00:17:23.130
They'll try to do all their damage with four, meaning
352
00:17:23.150 --> 00:17:27.119
there'll be seven back in coverage that will probably concentrate
353
00:17:27.150 --> 00:17:30.460
on Quasi Gilmer first and then Anthony Calandria's legs second.
354
00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:33.140
and they're going to say, you make the throws to
355
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:35.460
Ja'Cory Barney and Isaiah Hunter and beat us that way.
356
00:17:35.839 --> 00:17:38.019
We're not going to let you run, and we're not
357
00:17:38.059 --> 00:17:40.589
going to let you just throw to Quasi Gilmer 17 times.
358
00:17:40.900 --> 00:17:42.009
All right, keys to the game.
359
00:17:43.220 --> 00:17:45.410
Keys to the game, develop an offensive identity of what
360
00:17:45.430 --> 00:17:47.329
you want to be because you know they're going to
361
00:17:47.349 --> 00:17:49.309
have a plan, and you've got to be able to
362
00:17:49.349 --> 00:17:54.150
adjust to their adjustments. Limit the explosive plays on the
363
00:17:54.210 --> 00:17:55.269
ground for the Hoosiers.
364
00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:56.960
You've got to win in coverage.
365
00:17:58.019 --> 00:18:00.980
You look at Charlie Becker and Nick Marsh, two very
366
00:18:01.019 --> 00:18:04.759
good receivers for Indiana. You've got Andrew Marshall, who's rarely
367
00:18:04.819 --> 00:18:07.170
thrown at, winning coverage because those are going to be
368
00:18:07.190 --> 00:18:11.690
some big one-on-ones, especially on some third downs. Adjust to
369
00:18:11.750 --> 00:18:15.130
their adjustments. Whatever they come out with on you, you've
370
00:18:15.170 --> 00:18:17.410
got to figure out your adjustments. Kurt Cignetti, as we know,
371
00:18:17.450 --> 00:18:18.660
is the best in the business, and you've got to
372
00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:21.640
get the crowd in the game finally. Look, no one
373
00:18:21.700 --> 00:18:24.539
likes 11 a.m. games. But if you come out and
374
00:18:24.579 --> 00:18:26.599
play well, you'll get this crowd.
375
00:18:26.339 --> 00:18:27.579
Engaged into the game.
376
00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:30.769
So I do think it's important to make them a factor.
377
00:18:30.789 --> 00:18:33.990
A lot of people have kind of said Memorial Stadium
378
00:18:34.009 --> 00:18:36.349
doesn't get that loud. It does get loud, but the
379
00:18:36.390 --> 00:18:39.329
team's got to play well. We've seen 30 straight losses
380
00:18:39.369 --> 00:18:42.940
to ranked opponents. It's been a while since they've played
381
00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:46.099
at a level that can get up for a game
382
00:18:46.140 --> 00:18:46.920
like this on Saturday.
383
00:18:47.099 --> 00:18:51.200
I've always maintained that consistently the most difficult home field
384
00:18:51.279 --> 00:18:54.460
atmosphere in college football is Tiger Stadium and Baton Rouge.
385
00:18:54.940 --> 00:18:59.740
But for big games, Nebraska shoots into the top three.
386
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:02.940
And that's going to have to be the case tomorrow. Because, hey,
387
00:19:02.980 --> 00:19:05.119
this is a statement game, Sean. This is one of
388
00:19:05.180 --> 00:19:08.210
those games. You've got to win this if you really,
389
00:19:08.269 --> 00:19:09.490
truly are making progress.
390
00:19:10.019 --> 00:19:11.019
Hey, all right, excellent.
391
00:19:11.099 --> 00:19:12.900
We'll have you on tonight at 6 o'clock with the
392
00:19:12.920 --> 00:19:15.779
Husker Online pregame show with your merry band of Husker whizzes.
393
00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:18.460
So great to have you with us here on Nebraska's
394
00:19:18.539 --> 00:19:21.380
Morning News. I'll tell you one thing, though, as you're
395
00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:24.950
going around and you're going shopping, whether you're running into
396
00:19:24.990 --> 00:19:28.769
Hy-Vee for some meat for the game or whether you're
397
00:19:28.789 --> 00:19:32.630
running into Lowe's for some, I don't know, to build
398
00:19:32.670 --> 00:19:34.619
a gazebo for the game or whatever it is that
399
00:19:34.650 --> 00:19:37.519
you're doing, you know what I'm noticing all over town?
400
00:19:38.200 --> 00:19:40.730
They're out. The scouts are out. and they want to
401
00:19:40.769 --> 00:19:44.920
sell you popcorn everywhere I go. It seems like, I mean,
402
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:47.119
one of them, like, jumped out from under the bed
403
00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:49.910
last night. Hey, mister, you want to buy some popcorn?
404
00:19:50.490 --> 00:19:52.670
I'm telling you, they are coming out of the sprinklers
405
00:19:52.710 --> 00:19:56.750
right now. I think you got bigger problems. No, no, this, this,
406
00:19:56.930 --> 00:19:59.950
I'm telling you, you can't go anywhere without a Boy
407
00:19:59.970 --> 00:20:02.990
Scout trying to sell you popcorn. Let's take a call. Charlie,
408
00:20:03.009 --> 00:20:05.990
you're on News Radio 1110 KFAB. Good morning.
409
00:20:07.779 --> 00:20:11.259
Hi, my name is Charlie. I'm a Cub Scout in
410
00:20:11.299 --> 00:20:15.130
PAX 13. I'm selling popcorn to raise money for my
411
00:20:15.170 --> 00:20:17.930
Scouting Avengers. Would you like to support me?
412
00:20:20.210 --> 00:20:21.950
I'm telling you, they're everywhere.
413
00:20:22.029 --> 00:20:22.609
Charlie.
414
00:20:23.029 --> 00:20:26.309
What are you laughing about? Good morning. That's so awesome.
415
00:20:26.430 --> 00:20:30.950
This is a young capitalist under construction. Be encouraging. Don't laugh.
416
00:20:31.009 --> 00:20:33.769
Here's what you do. When Charlie does the pitch here,
417
00:20:33.809 --> 00:20:35.940
you say, Charlie, that's great that you're doing this. Tell
418
00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:38.160
me what it is that you really like about being
419
00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:39.079
a part of the Scouts.
420
00:20:41.740 --> 00:20:45.819
I really like doing the Pinewood Derby's.
421
00:20:47.220 --> 00:20:48.500
Oh, you're a Pinewood Derby guy.
422
00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:49.220
I love those.
423
00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:52.079
Yeah, that's super cool. How fast can you go on
424
00:20:52.140 --> 00:20:53.779
one of those Pinewood Derby cars?
425
00:20:56.140 --> 00:20:59.720
Last time I got second place multiple times.
426
00:20:59.839 --> 00:21:00.440
Who beat you?
427
00:21:00.460 --> 00:21:01.529
No, that was first.
428
00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:09.490
Who beat you, and where does that kid live? Charlie,
429
00:21:10.150 --> 00:21:11.930
I do love me some popcorn. You know what I
430
00:21:11.970 --> 00:21:15.309
like about the Boy Scouts popcorn? I like the microwave popcorn.
431
00:21:15.869 --> 00:21:17.609
Because you get a lot more of it. You get
432
00:21:17.650 --> 00:21:19.509
a box, and it's got a whole bunch of those
433
00:21:19.549 --> 00:21:21.430
packs in there. Are you a popcorn eater? Do you
434
00:21:21.470 --> 00:21:23.710
like popcorn? Yeah.
435
00:21:24.079 --> 00:21:24.400
Okay.
436
00:21:24.420 --> 00:21:25.640
What kind of popcorn do you like?
437
00:21:28.279 --> 00:21:32.119
I like the sweet and salty kettle corn.
438
00:21:32.740 --> 00:21:35.380
Okay. Well, I tell you what. You can put me
439
00:21:35.420 --> 00:21:38.619
down for a box of microwave popcorn. I have your
440
00:21:38.660 --> 00:21:42.069
dad's email address, and I will get with him and
441
00:21:42.109 --> 00:21:44.960
make sure... Or I could give you my credit card
442
00:21:45.019 --> 00:21:47.839
number here on the radio, but it's under my real name,
443
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:54.140
James Rose. Knock it off. So, yeah, Charlie, I will
444
00:21:54.180 --> 00:21:58.539
buy a box of microwave popcorn to support you and
445
00:21:58.660 --> 00:22:01.740
your Cub Scout troop. It's so wonderful that you're in Scouts.
446
00:22:01.980 --> 00:22:05.420
Thank you so much for doing that, and thank you
447
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:07.900
for calling this morning. Are you going to school today? Yeah.
448
00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:08.000
Yeah.
449
00:22:11.309 --> 00:22:11.670
Okay.
450
00:22:11.789 --> 00:22:13.730
Well, have a great time in school. What grade are
451
00:22:13.769 --> 00:22:14.109
you in?
452
00:22:15.789 --> 00:22:16.109
Fourth.
453
00:22:16.670 --> 00:22:20.069
Fourth grade? Wonderful. Well, have a great day in school
454
00:22:20.509 --> 00:22:23.250
and a really nice weekend, and I will buy some
455
00:22:23.269 --> 00:22:24.569
popcorn from you, okay?
456
00:22:25.950 --> 00:22:26.410
Thank you.
457
00:22:26.450 --> 00:22:31.359
All right. That's an outstanding young man. Thanks, Charlie. I'm
458
00:22:31.400 --> 00:22:37.380
telling you, these scouts, they're everywhere. Well, thank God they're
459
00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:40.779
everywhere because Boy Scouts are out of trouble. Yep, Scouting
460
00:22:40.839 --> 00:22:44.059
America is the organization, and you can learn more about
461
00:22:44.140 --> 00:22:53.380
our Mid-America Council right here in the community, mac-bsa.org, mac-bsa.org.
462
00:22:53.420 --> 00:22:56.380
Big fan of that organization. Time for our official Husker
463
00:22:56.400 --> 00:23:00.079
fan here on Big Red Radio. It's Richie in Papillion
464
00:23:00.140 --> 00:23:04.240
joining us here on News Radio 1110 KFAB. Richie, all right,
465
00:23:04.279 --> 00:23:07.160
this is what we've been waiting for. How are we
466
00:23:07.180 --> 00:23:08.400
feeling before Indiana?
467
00:23:10.269 --> 00:23:12.170
Well, we're 5-0, so that's good.
468
00:23:14.490 --> 00:23:14.869
I don't know.
469
00:23:14.930 --> 00:23:17.339
We have to play a perfect game, I believe. We
470
00:23:17.380 --> 00:23:20.319
cannot go down 7-0 in the first two minutes and
471
00:23:20.339 --> 00:23:22.680
have the three and out, and then the crowd is gone.
472
00:23:22.940 --> 00:23:25.039
That's one thing about our crowd. It gets loud, but
473
00:23:25.079 --> 00:23:28.400
it also gets real quiet quick. I think the offensive
474
00:23:28.440 --> 00:23:31.470
line has to play a little bit better. We definitely
475
00:23:31.509 --> 00:23:33.329
got to run the football and try to control some
476
00:23:33.349 --> 00:23:35.549
of that clock and protect it. So we need a
477
00:23:35.569 --> 00:23:39.140
good start. I think when we do throw the ball,
478
00:23:39.160 --> 00:23:41.019
we need to spread it around. It seems like we're
479
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:44.869
only going one wide receiver lately. On the other side,
480
00:23:44.900 --> 00:23:47.569
we have to stop their run. They've got an elite
481
00:23:47.609 --> 00:23:50.650
running game. A lot of people say this quarterback turns
482
00:23:50.690 --> 00:23:54.029
the ball over. I see 15 touchdowns and no interceptions.
483
00:23:54.089 --> 00:23:57.289
I don't see that. Try to get them into a
484
00:23:57.349 --> 00:24:00.380
third and long. We've got to play complementary football. I
485
00:24:00.420 --> 00:24:03.220
think that's key. The special team scares the heck out
486
00:24:03.259 --> 00:24:06.180
of me. I hope that doesn't come in. And, you know,
487
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:09.049
especially it's supposed to be like hurricane winds or something. Now, again,
488
00:24:09.069 --> 00:24:10.430
I don't know if that's good or bad for us.
489
00:24:10.769 --> 00:24:13.710
I don't know. But there's a lot of concerns that
490
00:24:13.750 --> 00:24:18.430
we had last week. And penalties is one. Not playing
491
00:24:18.509 --> 00:24:21.009
four quarters is another. And I don't know what the
492
00:24:21.049 --> 00:24:24.730
problem is with clock management and timeouts. I just cannot
493
00:24:24.789 --> 00:24:27.470
understand why this coach does not know what he's doing there.
494
00:24:27.900 --> 00:24:30.059
And once again, I would love to volunteer to go
495
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:33.099
down there and help him because it's not very difficult.
496
00:24:33.119 --> 00:24:36.410
It's not rocket science. So I just... I don't get it,
497
00:24:36.509 --> 00:24:38.519
how all of a sudden we have no timeouts and
498
00:24:38.539 --> 00:24:41.059
the clock is running. Thank God we scored with, what
499
00:24:41.099 --> 00:24:43.619
was it, two seconds left before the half? That usually
500
00:24:43.680 --> 00:24:48.349
never happens. So that's a major concern with this coaching staff. And,
501
00:24:48.359 --> 00:24:50.440
you know, we're playing up against an elite coaching staff.
502
00:24:50.460 --> 00:24:52.609
This guy's the best coach in football. There's not even
503
00:24:52.660 --> 00:24:56.150
a question. This is a staff elite. And their game
504
00:24:56.190 --> 00:24:58.289
plan against our game plan scares me too. So I
505
00:24:58.910 --> 00:24:59.210
don't know.
506
00:24:59.690 --> 00:25:01.250
What scares you about their game plan?
507
00:25:02.720 --> 00:25:05.069
They got an elite coaching staff, and we don't. And
508
00:25:05.089 --> 00:25:08.210
they adjust, and we don't. These are the things we
509
00:25:08.289 --> 00:25:10.230
don't do. That's what scares me.
510
00:25:11.029 --> 00:25:13.349
Richie, I got a feeling, though. Legitimate fears. I got
511
00:25:13.390 --> 00:25:15.289
a feeling, though. You still think we can win this
512
00:25:15.329 --> 00:25:15.880
game tomorrow.
513
00:25:16.579 --> 00:25:18.059
Yeah, we can win the game. If we play a
514
00:25:18.150 --> 00:25:21.420
perfect game, don't turn the ball over, and maybe we
515
00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:23.799
get a couple of turnovers, get into the fourth quarter
516
00:25:23.839 --> 00:25:26.539
in a one-score game, yeah, we can win it. But
517
00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:29.039
I can also see this thing going real bad quick, too.
518
00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:33.180
So we have a lot of problems that we don't
519
00:25:33.240 --> 00:25:36.900
do well, and they do well. And I don't know.
520
00:25:38.180 --> 00:25:40.200
We're better. There's no doubt about it. This is the
521
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:43.450
best team we've had in four years. This Indiana team,
522
00:25:43.509 --> 00:25:44.910
what are they, 21 in a row?
523
00:25:45.210 --> 00:25:46.450
Right, 21 in a row.
524
00:25:46.710 --> 00:25:49.599
We used to be that way. I mean, they're that
525
00:25:49.650 --> 00:25:52.319
way now, which gives me hope that we can eventually
526
00:25:52.339 --> 00:25:52.940
get that way.
527
00:25:53.059 --> 00:25:54.640
We're here now.
528
00:25:54.660 --> 00:25:55.440
I'm not going to lie to you.
529
00:25:55.460 --> 00:25:55.759
We're scared.
530
00:25:55.779 --> 00:25:56.160
Richie is scared.
531
00:25:56.180 --> 00:25:57.720
Just so you know, Richie, in the last 25 years,
532
00:25:57.740 --> 00:25:58.200
only 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 teams
533
00:25:58.240 --> 00:25:59.359
in the last 25 years have had at least a
534
00:25:59.359 --> 00:26:00.039
21-game winning streak.
535
00:26:00.059 --> 00:26:00.769
Indiana would be the 9th.
536
00:26:11.730 --> 00:26:14.789
Well, you know, look, I think these two games that
537
00:26:14.809 --> 00:26:17.170
we're playing, I want to compete with them. I still
538
00:26:17.210 --> 00:26:19.369
say the key to the season is Halloween night and
539
00:26:19.390 --> 00:26:23.380
the following Friday. Get the seven wins. take care of Rutgers,
540
00:26:23.430 --> 00:26:26.099
and then play Iowa for a January bowl game. That's
541
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:28.619
my game plan right now. Hopefully maybe we can steal
542
00:26:28.680 --> 00:26:30.720
one of these games, but it's going to be difficult.
543
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:34.319
Hey, we got excitement in Lincoln. The national champs are
544
00:26:34.359 --> 00:26:38.559
in town. We got Big Noon Fox setting up here.
545
00:26:38.579 --> 00:26:42.119
Nobody cares about that. Nobody cares about Big Noon and
546
00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:42.539
all that.
547
00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:43.099
All right.
548
00:26:43.440 --> 00:26:43.759
Okay.
549
00:26:43.940 --> 00:26:44.440
All right.
550
00:26:44.740 --> 00:26:48.420
Richie doesn't care about that, but he's the official Husker fan.
551
00:26:48.460 --> 00:26:51.450
Nebraska's morning news, that's Richie and Papillion. It's all business.
552
00:26:51.730 --> 00:26:55.369
Now the 1110 KFAB certified transmission sports brief.
553
00:26:55.609 --> 00:26:55.930
Jim Rhodes.
554
00:26:55.950 --> 00:26:56.410
All right, Scott.
555
00:26:56.430 --> 00:26:57.190
Good morning, everybody.
556
00:26:57.230 --> 00:27:01.089
Lots of chatter about Indiana's vaunted defense. Justifiably, they fly
557
00:27:01.130 --> 00:27:03.890
under the ball, create great pressure on the other quarterback,
558
00:27:04.029 --> 00:27:06.970
forces them to make fast decisions, which are usually bad.
559
00:27:07.690 --> 00:27:10.000
Is Anthony Calandria ready to meet the moment?
560
00:27:10.700 --> 00:27:14.200
All I need are some tasty waves, cool buzz, and
561
00:27:14.240 --> 00:27:15.039
I'm fine.
562
00:27:15.059 --> 00:27:15.920
Okay, that's not him.
563
00:27:16.559 --> 00:27:19.640
His coach Dana Holgerson thinks Calandria is ready to do this.
564
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:22.440
That's why he's here, right? He came here to play
565
00:27:22.480 --> 00:27:25.619
in the best conference in college football and play in
566
00:27:26.109 --> 00:27:30.130
what's the best team in college football, you know, against Indiana.
567
00:27:30.150 --> 00:27:33.069
I mean, they're reigning national champions, and, you know, I
568
00:27:33.069 --> 00:27:36.509
don't really care about rankings and all that stuff. Paid
569
00:27:36.750 --> 00:27:39.049
zero attention to it. They're the best team in the country.
570
00:27:39.210 --> 00:27:41.410
They've proved it. Great opportunity to go play, and that's
571
00:27:41.450 --> 00:27:43.259
why he's looking forward to the game.
572
00:27:43.339 --> 00:27:46.519
He's been really good so far, shaky first half against Maryland,
573
00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:48.339
but he put the team on his back and carried
574
00:27:48.359 --> 00:27:50.640
it to that win in the second half. Indiana has
575
00:27:50.640 --> 00:27:54.279
15 quarterback sacks in five games, but they haven't played
576
00:27:54.319 --> 00:27:58.579
a great offensive line yet. Iowa plays tonight at Washington.
577
00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:02.119
Expect a different quarterback. Jeremy Heklinski will likely start for
578
00:28:02.160 --> 00:28:05.799
the Hawkeyes. The regular Hank Brown has a sore shoulder.
579
00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:09.160
He hasn't practiced all week. The line is Washington minus
580
00:28:09.180 --> 00:28:12.339
two and a half. Big games tomorrow. UCLA at Oregon.
581
00:28:12.380 --> 00:28:15.880
Dylan Raiola will start for the Ducks. Dante Moore has
582
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:18.240
been cleared to play, but Raiola will get the start
583
00:28:18.339 --> 00:28:21.730
in this one. USC at Penn State. Texas, Oklahoma. and
584
00:28:21.769 --> 00:28:25.150
in the Monster Primetime Game, Georgia at Alabama. High school
585
00:28:25.170 --> 00:28:29.829
scores last night, Miller North 44, Fremont 3, Elkhorn North 55,
586
00:28:29.829 --> 00:28:35.680
Benson nothing, Gretna 49, York 13, Ralston beat Plattsmouth 24-13,
587
00:28:35.819 --> 00:28:40.559
and Lincoln Northeast over Lincoln North Star 38-20, which gives
588
00:28:40.599 --> 00:28:43.119
the Rockets a big lead as the best team in
589
00:28:43.180 --> 00:28:46.019
Lincoln this year. The Buccaneers got their first win of
590
00:28:46.039 --> 00:28:49.490
the year last night, 24-16 at Dallas, bad loss for
591
00:28:49.509 --> 00:28:53.539
the Cowboys. Cleveland beat the White Sox 9-3 in Game 4.
592
00:28:53.539 --> 00:28:58.000
Ties that American League Divisional Series at 2-2. Big Game
593
00:28:58.000 --> 00:29:02.369
5 today. Winner advances, loser done. Meanwhile, in the conference room,
594
00:29:02.410 --> 00:29:05.269
the suits keep working on a new players' union deal.
595
00:29:05.730 --> 00:29:06.910
They want a salary cap.
596
00:29:07.289 --> 00:29:09.410
To make it more acceptable to the union, they are
597
00:29:09.470 --> 00:29:13.369
talking about cutting the regular season by eight games, expanding
598
00:29:13.410 --> 00:29:16.359
the playoff series from best of five to best of seven.
599
00:29:16.779 --> 00:29:19.720
Players get more bonus money for playoff games. And how
600
00:29:19.740 --> 00:29:23.809
about this idea? Higher-seeded teams get to pick their opponents
601
00:29:24.190 --> 00:29:27.829
in the wildcard and divisional series. The volleyball team took
602
00:29:27.869 --> 00:29:31.809
no prisoners at Indiana last night. Straight sets sweep. Murray
603
00:29:31.809 --> 00:29:36.049
11 kills. Sigler 10. Big match against Wisconsin Saturday night.
604
00:29:36.269 --> 00:29:39.630
The Huskers are ready. Sports is news on Nebraska's news, weather,
605
00:29:39.650 --> 00:29:39.970
and traffic.
606
00:29:40.130 --> 00:29:40.539
Station.
607
00:29:40.799 --> 00:29:44.079
How are we feeling about the Pentagon live streaming the
608
00:29:44.200 --> 00:29:47.240
execution of the shooter at Fort Hood? And have we
609
00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:52.319
forgotten what this guy did to earn this little stage
610
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:57.339
that we're giving him? In 2009, there were people there
611
00:29:57.579 --> 00:30:02.799
at Fort Hood. who were lined up to, I think
612
00:30:02.839 --> 00:30:08.710
that they were getting their firearms at that time. And
613
00:30:08.730 --> 00:30:14.109
this guy went out there and just started randomly trying
614
00:30:14.150 --> 00:30:17.869
to shoot as many people as possible at the military base.
615
00:30:18.349 --> 00:30:21.740
He killed 13 people and injured 32 others. These are
616
00:30:21.759 --> 00:30:28.069
people who enlisted to protect people like him before he
617
00:30:28.130 --> 00:30:34.390
committed this atrocity there at that military base. Secretary of
618
00:30:34.410 --> 00:30:38.490
War Pete Hegseth says we're going to execute him, and
619
00:30:38.509 --> 00:30:42.430
it will be live-streamed. It's not going to be televised.
620
00:30:42.519 --> 00:30:45.279
It's not like they're putting it on Fox when the
621
00:30:45.339 --> 00:30:49.039
Department of War attacks on a show or something like that.
622
00:30:49.059 --> 00:30:51.559
It's going to be live-streamed, and you can either choose
623
00:30:51.599 --> 00:30:54.680
to watch it or not. As far as I'm concerned,
624
00:30:54.940 --> 00:30:58.730
I don't need to see it. How do we feel
625
00:30:58.789 --> 00:31:03.019
about it? Scott at KFAB.com. In the Zonkers Customwoods inbox,
626
00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:06.259
you're welcome to email. Or if you're in the studio,
627
00:31:06.299 --> 00:31:08.460
you can stop typing and grab a microphone and talk
628
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:12.019
with me on the radio if you want. Jim's not listening.
629
00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:16.349
I'll read this email from Greg. Greg says, are you
630
00:31:16.390 --> 00:31:19.650
listening over there? I'm always listening. How do you, are you?
631
00:31:20.369 --> 00:31:24.900
Always listening. I'm always the coldest. Thank you, the coldest.
632
00:31:25.079 --> 00:31:28.200
How do we feel about the live streaming of the
633
00:31:28.279 --> 00:31:31.029
execution of this guy? I don't really understand the point.
634
00:31:32.049 --> 00:31:33.430
I don't think we need to see that.
635
00:31:33.549 --> 00:31:35.529
All you got to do is turn on Netflix, and
636
00:31:35.589 --> 00:31:40.930
you can see something a lot worse than that. That's fake.
637
00:31:41.619 --> 00:31:43.579
Turn on some of those high-end channels, and you can
638
00:31:43.619 --> 00:31:45.279
see a whole lot worse than an execution.
639
00:31:45.299 --> 00:31:46.980
But I'm not sure what the point is. What cable
640
00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:48.180
package do you have?
641
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:48.259
Oh.
642
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:49.519
I got the package.
643
00:31:50.700 --> 00:31:50.980
Whoa.
644
00:31:51.579 --> 00:31:55.480
I got the package. All right. We will clip that audio.
645
00:31:55.509 --> 00:31:58.769
This is– but I think half– this is half the problem, honestly, Scott.
646
00:31:58.789 --> 00:32:01.970
And the execution, the botched execution down in Tennessee has
647
00:32:02.009 --> 00:32:04.170
gotten a lot of– Now I guess she's up walking
648
00:32:04.210 --> 00:32:04.710
and talking.
649
00:32:05.430 --> 00:32:07.890
Yeah, does this guy, Hassan, want the same people that
650
00:32:07.930 --> 00:32:08.279
tried to execute?
651
00:32:08.299 --> 00:32:08.660
Maybe so, yeah.
652
00:32:08.700 --> 00:32:11.220
Hey, I want that one. Send me to Tennessee.
653
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:14.460
If we would just treat executions with a little bit
654
00:32:14.519 --> 00:32:18.539
more maturity and a little less emotion, then we might
655
00:32:18.619 --> 00:32:20.819
actually get a few done. But we turn these into
656
00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:25.109
circus shows. We turn these into side shows, circus side shows.
657
00:32:25.230 --> 00:32:28.049
And rather than say, okay, here is how we're going
658
00:32:28.089 --> 00:32:31.670
to execute this capital sentence, It's going to happen with
659
00:32:31.750 --> 00:32:36.289
very little fanfare, very few people around, no cameras. We
660
00:32:36.329 --> 00:32:38.789
might get more of them done because that's not what
661
00:32:38.809 --> 00:32:41.910
they're designed to do. They're not designed to capture an audience.
662
00:32:41.950 --> 00:32:46.519
They're designed to execute the law and to carry out
663
00:32:46.599 --> 00:32:50.519
something that has been accepted by many, many Americans. But
664
00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:52.900
the longer we go without doing them and the more
665
00:32:53.539 --> 00:32:57.200
sideshows we have associated with them, the less credible they become.
666
00:32:57.319 --> 00:33:01.400
I don't understand your characterization of it as a sideshow.
667
00:33:01.460 --> 00:33:04.859
The Fort Hood thing, you can say that. The Tennessee, though,
668
00:33:04.900 --> 00:33:08.119
this wasn't live streamed. The requisite number of people are
669
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:11.299
in there to witness the capital punishment of someone who's
670
00:33:11.319 --> 00:33:13.599
been sentenced to death, but it wasn't a sideshow. But
671
00:33:13.640 --> 00:33:15.660
if you remember, and maybe not this one. The fallout
672
00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:16.720
has become a sideshow.
673
00:33:16.740 --> 00:33:20.319
But if you remember when Walkin' Willie Ote was executed
674
00:33:20.380 --> 00:33:23.240
in Nebraska back in the early 90s, that turned into
675
00:33:23.279 --> 00:33:24.240
a circus down there.
676
00:33:25.099 --> 00:33:28.779
You had crazy protests. I was there for Jubert. Well,
677
00:33:28.859 --> 00:33:32.309
I was there for Walkin' Willie. And it turned into
678
00:33:32.349 --> 00:33:36.589
a sideshow. It turned into stupid radio promotions by slapping
679
00:33:36.630 --> 00:33:39.470
the commandant on Y101 or whatever the hell the radio
680
00:33:39.490 --> 00:33:40.069
station was.
681
00:33:40.799 --> 00:33:44.880
And that's the issue that really turned me off, that
682
00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:47.920
rather than treat this with the seriousness that it, that
683
00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:51.160
it deserves, we turn these into stupid activities by dumb
684
00:33:51.200 --> 00:33:53.599
people who have too much time on their hands.
685
00:33:53.759 --> 00:33:56.539
Well, Greg emails here and says, what do you think
686
00:33:56.579 --> 00:33:59.470
the logic is behind the decision to live stream the
687
00:33:59.509 --> 00:34:02.769
Fort Hood shooter's execution? I assume it's to show people, see,
688
00:34:03.289 --> 00:34:05.869
if you do this, this is what will happen to you.
689
00:34:06.089 --> 00:34:12.019
And Greg says, I think it will backfire. I don't know, Greg,
690
00:34:12.059 --> 00:34:15.079
you're talking about backfire. It's going to cause the people
691
00:34:15.119 --> 00:34:18.909
who already want to kill us To further want to
692
00:34:18.969 --> 00:34:22.079
kill us? I don't know that it whips up anyone
693
00:34:22.340 --> 00:34:24.880
into a frenzy and says, you know, that whole death
694
00:34:24.940 --> 00:34:27.460
to Americans thing, I never really saw what the whole
695
00:34:27.500 --> 00:34:30.219
fuss was about. But now that they did that, I'm in.
696
00:34:30.480 --> 00:34:32.590
Let's go kill some Americans. I don't know that it
697
00:34:32.650 --> 00:34:35.989
does that. I'd be anxious to hear your thoughts, though, too.
698
00:34:36.070 --> 00:34:40.389
Scott at KFAB.com. Zonker's Custom Woods inbox is open for you.
699
00:34:42.570 --> 00:34:44.809
Of course, anywhere you are on our free iHeartRadio app,
700
00:34:44.849 --> 00:34:46.670
you can send a message in here with your own
701
00:34:46.730 --> 00:34:51.199
voice as well. It was November 5th, 2009. We had
702
00:34:51.260 --> 00:34:53.800
a number of members of the military lined up to
703
00:34:53.860 --> 00:34:59.079
receive routine medical treatment. And this is before or after
704
00:34:59.139 --> 00:35:02.199
you are either going to or returning from deployment there
705
00:35:02.380 --> 00:35:06.420
at Fort Hood. And that's when this guy went up
706
00:35:06.460 --> 00:35:12.210
there and shot. 14 people injured, more than 30. Really,
707
00:35:12.250 --> 00:35:15.949
the biggest question I have here is if members of
708
00:35:16.010 --> 00:35:19.210
the military at a military base returned fire that day,
709
00:35:19.989 --> 00:35:23.909
how is it they didn't kill him? They stopped the threat,
710
00:35:24.429 --> 00:35:28.360
and he's paralyzed, and now he's going to be executed.
711
00:35:28.460 --> 00:35:32.880
Secretary Hegseth says it's going to be live-streamed. When asked
712
00:35:33.239 --> 00:35:35.679
if he'd made any final requests or reached out to
713
00:35:35.719 --> 00:35:39.880
the Trump administration, Hegseth said, quote, don't care. We'll see
714
00:35:39.920 --> 00:35:43.929
him on December 3rd, unquote. Get in your thoughts on this.
715
00:35:43.989 --> 00:35:47.389
Greg had emailed and started off the conversation, says, if
716
00:35:47.449 --> 00:35:50.070
we're trying to show people, if you do this, this
717
00:35:50.130 --> 00:35:51.769
is what will happen to you. But he says, I
718
00:35:51.809 --> 00:35:56.030
think this will backfire. What do you think? Scott at KFAB.com.
719
00:35:56.510 --> 00:36:00.010
Dave says, live stream execution. I'm all for it on
720
00:36:00.050 --> 00:36:04.250
this trader. And hopefully they get some pointers from the
721
00:36:04.329 --> 00:36:07.699
Rulo tragedy years ago, where they start with a fingertip,
722
00:36:07.719 --> 00:36:09.969
then an earlobe, and then, All right, so Dave is
723
00:36:10.070 --> 00:36:15.159
out for it. Doug says, first, overdue. Next, perfect. Let's
724
00:36:15.199 --> 00:36:18.679
put it on pay-per-view and give the proceeds to the victim.
725
00:36:18.800 --> 00:36:22.039
That's from Doug. Freddie says, I think it should be
726
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:27.110
the Super Bowl halftime show. We have a bloodthirsty KFAB Nation,
727
00:36:27.250 --> 00:36:31.269
but I understand the sentiment, especially when I hear this
728
00:36:31.329 --> 00:36:32.369
in the talkback, Mike.
729
00:36:33.690 --> 00:36:36.840
Hey, I feel that streaming the execution is exactly the
730
00:36:36.860 --> 00:36:41.519
same as when the court will let victims' families observe
731
00:36:41.539 --> 00:36:42.320
a lethal injection.
732
00:36:43.260 --> 00:36:43.840
It's closure.
733
00:36:43.860 --> 00:36:47.829
And the military family is a big, tight family. So me,
734
00:36:48.190 --> 00:36:50.369
as a family member, I want closure.
735
00:36:50.889 --> 00:36:53.030
It's going to be live streamed. You can choose to
736
00:36:53.070 --> 00:36:54.889
click on it and watch it if you want. If
737
00:36:54.929 --> 00:36:57.789
you don't, then you find something else to click on.
738
00:36:57.949 --> 00:37:00.510
YouTube has lots of videos out there. Here are some
739
00:37:00.530 --> 00:37:04.210
of the comments coming in this morning. This one via
740
00:37:04.250 --> 00:37:09.380
the Zonkers Custom Woods inbox. Fred emails scott at kfab.com
741
00:37:09.460 --> 00:37:13.829
and says, Jim, you couldn't be more wrong. Executions need
742
00:37:13.849 --> 00:37:17.409
to be held in a public setting, preferably public hangings,
743
00:37:17.960 --> 00:37:20.440
to show the people this is what you will get
744
00:37:20.519 --> 00:37:23.019
if you choose to commit certain crimes as of late.
745
00:37:23.059 --> 00:37:26.960
There's no deterrent. There's no consequence. No repercussions for your actions.
746
00:37:27.400 --> 00:37:30.420
And we wonder why these dummies act the way they do.
747
00:37:30.480 --> 00:37:34.340
Maybe that fake will bring back the blanking chair. That's
748
00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:38.989
from Fred. So the comments are coming in here, and
749
00:37:39.050 --> 00:37:43.130
they are, as usual, pointed out. The reason that Fred
750
00:37:43.170 --> 00:37:45.809
sent that email, we were talking about how Secretary of
751
00:37:45.849 --> 00:37:49.449
War Hegseth says we are live streaming the execution of
752
00:37:49.469 --> 00:37:52.300
the Fort Hood shooter. As I said, if you want
753
00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:54.260
to click on it, it'll be there. If you don't,
754
00:37:54.440 --> 00:37:57.860
then find something else on which to click. I'm Scott Voorhees.
755
00:37:57.880 --> 00:38:01.099
That's Jim Rose. This is Nebraska's Morning News. Lucy Chapman,
756
00:38:01.139 --> 00:38:04.380
Courtney Dunahoe, Craig Evans, and Gary Saddlemyer.
757
00:38:05.699 --> 00:38:07.519
Well, you demanded that I come in here.
758
00:38:07.579 --> 00:38:11.639
Good morning, Gary Saddlemyer. You want to talk executions or
759
00:38:11.679 --> 00:38:14.440
the execution of a good playbook against Indiana?
760
00:38:14.460 --> 00:38:15.300
Both, I think.
761
00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:19.800
Yeah, okay. Well, the live stream execution of the Fort
762
00:38:19.840 --> 00:38:20.539
Hood shooter.
763
00:38:21.199 --> 00:38:24.280
Go. Fred makes a good point. There was going back
764
00:38:24.449 --> 00:38:29.199
to the Roman Empire and even before. These were public events,
765
00:38:29.949 --> 00:38:31.690
and one of the big reasons, well, there were a couple,
766
00:38:31.789 --> 00:38:34.250
but one of the big reasons was the deterrent factor.
767
00:38:34.309 --> 00:38:37.409
We don't have that anymore anymore.
768
00:38:38.050 --> 00:38:38.809
Partly for that.
769
00:38:38.710 --> 00:38:42.630
Reason and partly because we wait 20, 30 years in
770
00:38:42.670 --> 00:38:45.019
most cases before executions are carried out.
771
00:38:45.300 --> 00:38:47.500
And then they try and carry them out in Tennessee
772
00:38:47.539 --> 00:38:48.219
and they can't.
773
00:38:48.019 --> 00:38:49.800
Get it done. Well, that was a one-off.
774
00:38:49.840 --> 00:38:50.980
That's because she's a demon.
775
00:38:51.880 --> 00:38:54.400
Well, they botched it. They couldn't find the vein. They
776
00:38:54.420 --> 00:38:57.190
botched it on purpose. Just go to Clarkson College and
777
00:38:57.210 --> 00:38:59.889
get a first-year nursing student. She could have found the vein.
778
00:38:59.909 --> 00:39:03.070
I heard an anesthesiologist comment on this and said that was,
779
00:39:03.690 --> 00:39:05.510
in his view, and he's done a lot of practicing.
780
00:39:07.849 --> 00:39:10.730
And he said that was almost certainly a botched IV.
781
00:39:12.130 --> 00:39:13.840
Not practicing for executions.
782
00:39:13.900 --> 00:39:18.400
No, no, no. But he's put a lot of people under. Yeah.
783
00:39:19.079 --> 00:39:23.389
And it makes sense. It was a botched IV, which
784
00:39:24.309 --> 00:39:27.130
to me, they're all botched. I hate IVs.
785
00:39:27.210 --> 00:39:28.860
But anyway. that aside.
786
00:39:28.949 --> 00:39:32.099
Well, how do you get fluids into your system when
787
00:39:32.199 --> 00:39:34.000
they're drained by your lifestyle?
788
00:39:34.019 --> 00:39:36.860
Via can or bottle. How do you expect them to
789
00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:37.420
get in there?
790
00:39:38.199 --> 00:39:39.619
You know, the reason....
791
00:39:41.159 --> 00:39:41.739
Show them, Jim.
792
00:39:44.019 --> 00:39:49.170
But look, I am not opposed to public....
793
00:39:53.110 --> 00:39:57.530
I don't think they ought to be televised necessarily. But
794
00:39:58.309 --> 00:40:01.789
the idea that, well, yeah, let's just get this done
795
00:40:01.849 --> 00:40:06.630
and move on. If you don't have a trial and
796
00:40:07.010 --> 00:40:11.309
an appeal, possibly two, and an execution done within a year,
797
00:40:12.110 --> 00:40:14.260
I think the deterrent factor is largely lost.
798
00:40:15.929 --> 00:40:17.710
You don't think there are more people who want to
799
00:40:17.750 --> 00:40:20.090
be a martyr than be scared off by, well, I
800
00:40:20.090 --> 00:40:20.590
don't want to be.
801
00:40:20.550 --> 00:40:23.989
Put to death. Not if they get a good look
802
00:40:24.070 --> 00:40:24.250
at it.
803
00:40:24.510 --> 00:40:24.710
Yeah.
804
00:40:25.429 --> 00:40:25.789
I don't know.
805
00:40:26.090 --> 00:40:32.199
I just think it's– I just think we have– Rosie,
806
00:40:32.219 --> 00:40:38.039
you were talking about what a joke capital punishment has
807
00:40:38.079 --> 00:40:39.960
become anymore, a joke that's not funny anymore.
808
00:40:40.059 --> 00:40:40.420
That's right.
809
00:40:40.880 --> 00:40:45.719
Because it's just not– how long does it take? 30 years.
810
00:40:46.059 --> 00:40:47.099
Yeah. 30, 40 years.
811
00:40:47.139 --> 00:40:50.840
Really, but in practice, well, we'll set another hearing date
812
00:40:50.940 --> 00:40:56.179
for a year from now. No. No. You referenced Harold
813
00:40:56.239 --> 00:41:01.630
Otey earlier, Walkin' Willie. It was ridiculous. It was ridiculous
814
00:41:01.670 --> 00:41:02.269
how long that took.
815
00:41:02.289 --> 00:41:05.389
The first execution at the time in almost 50 years.
816
00:41:06.130 --> 00:41:09.760
And it turned into a gigantic circus because once again,
817
00:41:09.780 --> 00:41:16.449
the system provided for him to Appeal after appeal after appeal.
818
00:41:16.489 --> 00:41:17.929
Stay after stay after stay.
819
00:41:18.650 --> 00:41:23.030
And it never really ever got to the point where
820
00:41:23.090 --> 00:41:25.199
we could expect this to happen. So when it did,
821
00:41:25.239 --> 00:41:30.440
it was a big shock. It was news. Oh, he's
822
00:41:30.539 --> 00:41:31.519
a poet.
823
00:41:31.780 --> 00:41:32.039
Yeah.
824
00:41:32.099 --> 00:41:35.900
I mean, these people rehab themselves according to somebody while
825
00:41:35.940 --> 00:41:39.900
they're in jail. This woman down in Tennessee begged them
826
00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:43.670
to kill her. She said, please take me out. I'm
827
00:41:43.710 --> 00:41:46.369
a bad person. And I see now that one of
828
00:41:46.449 --> 00:41:50.730
Charlie Manson's girlfriends is about ready to get parole. People
829
00:41:50.809 --> 00:41:53.590
forget 56 years ago what she was up to. But
830
00:41:53.630 --> 00:41:55.949
you don't even have to go that far back. You
831
00:41:55.989 --> 00:41:58.889
just look at what you're hearing from the Trump administration
832
00:41:58.989 --> 00:42:01.230
on the Fort Hood shooter. We're going to execute him.
833
00:42:01.250 --> 00:42:03.090
He'll be dead until he's dead, dead, dead. And you
834
00:42:03.110 --> 00:42:04.969
can watch it right here on this link if you want.
835
00:42:05.369 --> 00:42:09.710
probably at TrumpExecutions.com or something like that. And it is
836
00:42:09.769 --> 00:42:10.889
Firing Squad, if you.
837
00:42:10.809 --> 00:42:12.530
Want to watch that. The greatest execution of all time.
838
00:42:12.869 --> 00:42:14.429
I get along very well with these snipers. The likes
839
00:42:14.489 --> 00:42:17.980
of which you've never seen. But then you've got Mamdani
840
00:42:18.039 --> 00:42:20.539
in New York, who's already taken up the cause of
841
00:42:20.599 --> 00:42:23.800
this hero who was shot by ICE agents in New
842
00:42:23.840 --> 00:42:26.320
York without knowing anything about him or what happened that
843
00:42:26.360 --> 00:42:29.059
caused him to get shot or anything like that. And
844
00:42:29.139 --> 00:42:30.980
you've got a number of people out there who would
845
00:42:31.000 --> 00:42:37.349
probably take everyone from Lindsey Clancy– to Jack the Ripper
846
00:42:37.409 --> 00:42:40.489
and put them on Dancing with the Stars. So there's
847
00:42:40.510 --> 00:42:42.909
a very different tone out there when it comes to
848
00:42:42.929 --> 00:42:44.429
these things. That's really kind of disturbing. All right, let's
849
00:42:44.469 --> 00:42:47.050
talk football here next. I think so. All right, Gary
850
00:42:47.070 --> 00:42:49.389
Saddlemeyer is in here. We'll talk about the execution of
851
00:42:49.449 --> 00:42:51.110
a playbook against Indiana next.
852
00:42:51.429 --> 00:42:54.199
Good morning, Gary. It is wonderful to hear your voice.
853
00:42:54.380 --> 00:42:57.940
Gary Saddlemeyer is here as well, hanging out for us
854
00:42:57.960 --> 00:42:59.840
a little bit here on this Friday morning. It's game
855
00:42:59.880 --> 00:43:02.599
day eve. Gary, how are we feeling about the Huskers'
856
00:43:02.659 --> 00:43:03.940
chances against the Hoosiers?
857
00:43:03.960 --> 00:43:04.119
Good.
858
00:43:04.829 --> 00:43:05.050
Great.
859
00:43:05.090 --> 00:43:07.030
Thanks a lot for stopping by. Is that a win?
860
00:43:07.110 --> 00:43:08.150
Are you promising a win?
861
00:43:08.550 --> 00:43:14.590
No. Not promising anything. However, and this is not sentiment,
862
00:43:14.670 --> 00:43:18.670
although I devoutly hope Nebraska wins, but in looking at this,
863
00:43:20.949 --> 00:43:23.989
I'd pick Nebraska to not only cover it but to
864
00:43:24.030 --> 00:43:24.949
win by a point.
865
00:43:25.889 --> 00:43:27.010
One point. Which point?
866
00:43:27.030 --> 00:43:27.739
28-27. Oh, that one.
867
00:43:29.849 --> 00:43:33.010
So you're presuming a gaffe-free day on special teams?
868
00:43:33.050 --> 00:43:33.889
Well, it has to be.
869
00:43:34.070 --> 00:43:36.480
It has to be, and the turnovers have to go away.
870
00:43:36.960 --> 00:43:40.340
The penalties have to go away. But I'll tell you something.
871
00:43:40.380 --> 00:43:42.780
We've seen this team under Matt Rule two years ago
872
00:43:42.840 --> 00:43:45.119
go into Columbus, Ohio and play them with three or
873
00:43:45.139 --> 00:43:48.909
four points. So this team can rise to the occasion
874
00:43:48.949 --> 00:43:51.849
against good competition and play well. And now this team,
875
00:43:51.909 --> 00:43:55.329
I think, is better than Rule's other teams. And they're
876
00:43:55.349 --> 00:43:59.239
at home. They put it together. Now, this is the caveat.
877
00:43:59.400 --> 00:44:01.820
You can't drop the ball. You can't throw it to
878
00:44:01.840 --> 00:44:03.909
the other team, and you can't be jumping offside all
879
00:44:03.949 --> 00:44:05.349
the time, which drives me crazy.
880
00:44:05.389 --> 00:44:06.329
Yeah.
881
00:44:06.429 --> 00:44:06.969
It does.
882
00:44:07.170 --> 00:44:09.389
Well, we've seen this team overcome all of those things.
883
00:44:09.409 --> 00:44:09.969
Yeah, that's right.
884
00:44:10.090 --> 00:44:12.550
They put themselves in a hole and then got out
885
00:44:12.570 --> 00:44:17.239
of it. I'm saying this happens tomorrow. Well, why not? Now,
886
00:44:17.619 --> 00:44:20.449
the reason I say 28, that indicates no field goals.
887
00:44:20.489 --> 00:44:22.889
We can't make a long field goal. Now, why they're
888
00:44:22.929 --> 00:44:24.929
not using John Hole on the long kicks, I have
889
00:44:24.989 --> 00:44:27.269
no idea. Presumably they have a good reason. Well, because
890
00:44:27.309 --> 00:44:29.690
I don't think he keeps it in the fairway. Well,
891
00:44:29.710 --> 00:44:33.110
Kyle Conanan at this point hasn't either. Well, 50-yard or plus.
892
00:44:33.510 --> 00:44:35.949
Well, why don't you just put the old square-toed shoe
893
00:44:36.110 --> 00:44:37.489
on and go out there yourself?
894
00:44:37.730 --> 00:44:37.949
Fine.
895
00:44:38.480 --> 00:44:40.800
But he could. It's going to be a little breezy.
896
00:44:40.519 --> 00:44:42.519
For 50-yard kicks tomorrow. Maybe we get some shorter ones,
897
00:44:42.559 --> 00:44:45.679
but I'm thinking 28-27. All right. How about that?
898
00:44:45.900 --> 00:44:47.940
I like it. I think there will be something bad
899
00:44:47.980 --> 00:44:49.159
happen in the fourth quarter.
900
00:44:49.380 --> 00:44:50.159
I'll be there to witness.
901
00:44:50.179 --> 00:44:54.059
Special teams. Come on now. The 1110 KFAB National Correspondent
902
00:44:54.119 --> 00:44:56.940
Rory O'Neill on Nebraska's Morning News.
903
00:44:56.960 --> 00:44:57.510
Hey, Rory.
904
00:44:58.159 --> 00:44:58.590
Good morning.
905
00:44:58.719 --> 00:45:01.909
We're going to go outside the boundaries of Nebraska here
906
00:45:02.150 --> 00:45:05.309
a little bit to see what's going on with Isaias.
907
00:45:06.210 --> 00:45:08.610
down there in the Gulf of America. What's happening?
908
00:45:09.469 --> 00:45:12.900
Yeah, well pronounced there. That storm is now a Category
909
00:45:12.900 --> 00:45:16.920
3 hurricane. That means it's classified as a major hurricane.
910
00:45:17.239 --> 00:45:22.039
Winds are sustained at 120 miles per hour. Now, the
911
00:45:22.059 --> 00:45:24.340
forecasters think it might lose a little bit of strength
912
00:45:24.780 --> 00:45:27.440
as it gets closer to shore. But right now, we're
913
00:45:27.519 --> 00:45:30.980
seeing conditions, some of the outer bands already causing rain
914
00:45:31.039 --> 00:45:33.940
across parts of the Florida panhandle. It's going to start
915
00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:36.929
to get pretty nasty this afternoon. And then the center
916
00:45:36.989 --> 00:45:39.449
of the storm, the eye, is expected to come ashore
917
00:45:39.469 --> 00:45:43.590
around Pensacola or Destin, Florida. That's there in the panhandle.
918
00:45:43.710 --> 00:45:47.630
It should come ashore around 11 o'clock p.m. local time
919
00:45:47.670 --> 00:45:48.210
for them tonight.
920
00:45:48.800 --> 00:45:52.400
We have Huskers who just moved down that way. They're
921
00:45:52.460 --> 00:45:56.550
closer to Mobile, Alabama. And for a while there, they
922
00:45:56.590 --> 00:45:58.650
were right in the path. And now you're right. It's
923
00:45:58.710 --> 00:46:03.610
centered over Pensacola. And Brent emails and says, feeling somewhat
924
00:46:03.670 --> 00:46:06.849
like Nebraskans as they hear a tornado warning nearby. And
925
00:46:06.869 --> 00:46:08.670
then they watch it from their front porch with a
926
00:46:08.690 --> 00:46:11.449
cold beer in their hand. Our neighbors don't seem too
927
00:46:11.510 --> 00:46:15.530
concerned about it down there in Alabama. And he said
928
00:46:15.550 --> 00:46:17.610
apparently being on the west side of the hurricane is
929
00:46:17.650 --> 00:46:19.090
better than being on the east.
930
00:46:19.230 --> 00:46:19.590
Correct.
931
00:46:19.849 --> 00:46:24.619
So they're going to hopefully weather this okay. And most
932
00:46:24.659 --> 00:46:26.260
of the rest of the nation is just worried about
933
00:46:26.280 --> 00:46:28.380
the Georgia-Alabama game being impacted.
934
00:46:29.739 --> 00:46:30.260
That's true.
935
00:46:30.320 --> 00:46:32.619
And look, the storm should be out of the area
936
00:46:32.679 --> 00:46:35.670
by the time of kickoff tomorrow night. The issue, though,
937
00:46:35.809 --> 00:46:38.110
is that you've got to get 100,000 fans there, right?
938
00:46:38.469 --> 00:46:39.829
And how do they get there? They're going to be
939
00:46:39.869 --> 00:46:43.670
driving through some very dangerous weather. You won't have any tailgating,
940
00:46:43.710 --> 00:46:46.269
I don't think. And President Trump, I think, is still
941
00:46:46.309 --> 00:46:49.409
on the schedule to go. But, yeah, I think it's
942
00:46:49.449 --> 00:46:51.639
the getting there. It's the hours before that I'm more
943
00:46:51.679 --> 00:46:54.719
concerned about. Game time should be fine with the storm
944
00:46:54.760 --> 00:46:57.159
pulling away by then. And as far as the old
945
00:46:57.739 --> 00:47:01.260
former Nebraska resident there, he's right. That top left part
946
00:47:01.280 --> 00:47:03.079
of the storm, you'd rather be hit by that than
947
00:47:03.119 --> 00:47:05.719
the top right part. But just do what the local
948
00:47:05.800 --> 00:47:09.199
emergency managers say. If you're in an evacuation zone, do it.
949
00:47:09.570 --> 00:47:11.349
If you're in a mobile home, get out of it
950
00:47:12.150 --> 00:47:13.349
and find somewhere else to go.
951
00:47:13.869 --> 00:47:17.289
You hear that, Brent? That's coming from 1110 KFAB National
952
00:47:17.329 --> 00:47:21.469
Correspondent Rory O'Neill with us here for another minute or two.
953
00:47:22.429 --> 00:47:24.539
Where are you in Florida right now and how much
954
00:47:24.579 --> 00:47:26.300
are you going to be impacted by this?
955
00:47:27.130 --> 00:47:30.280
Yeah, thankfully. So I'm in Orlando, and yeah, it shouldn't
956
00:47:30.300 --> 00:47:32.179
have any impact here at all. Tampa Bay's got a
957
00:47:32.199 --> 00:47:35.699
little bit higher surf. Fort Myers, also on the Gulf Coast, yeah,
958
00:47:35.719 --> 00:47:38.739
they won't really notice much of anything. Miami's fine as
959
00:47:38.800 --> 00:47:41.840
a result. But no, all the focus is on essentially
960
00:47:41.920 --> 00:47:45.760
Apalachicola over to the Mississippi River is the broader area.
961
00:47:46.079 --> 00:47:50.099
But it's that Pensacola area, Destin, I think, is going
962
00:47:50.119 --> 00:47:51.800
to be in trouble. But they're hit by these things
963
00:47:52.320 --> 00:47:55.119
pretty frequently. They know what to do. It's a matter
964
00:47:55.139 --> 00:47:55.940
of getting people to do it.
965
00:47:56.219 --> 00:47:58.760
Let's go a little further east of there, Rory, to Iran.
966
00:47:59.199 --> 00:48:02.199
The president said, I probably won't do anything until after
967
00:48:02.219 --> 00:48:05.440
the midterms, which was an interesting statement from someone who
968
00:48:05.480 --> 00:48:08.860
doesn't usually show his hand. What's the latest here on
969
00:48:08.900 --> 00:48:11.260
what's going on with the Strait of Hormuz, with Iran,
970
00:48:11.300 --> 00:48:16.250
with Trump's feelings on the potential deals? Have talks just stopped?
971
00:48:16.289 --> 00:48:16.840
What's going on?
972
00:48:17.949 --> 00:48:19.309
Yeah, so for.
973
00:48:19.190 --> 00:48:21.489
Weeks now, President Trump has said, oh, I have a
974
00:48:21.530 --> 00:48:25.320
decision to make. I have to decide. Should I annihilate Iran?
975
00:48:25.360 --> 00:48:28.760
Remember those comments? Well, then he posts on Truth Social
976
00:48:28.800 --> 00:48:32.219
yesterday that they will not be attacking Iran, quote, at
977
00:48:32.360 --> 00:48:36.420
any time prior to the midterm elections, unquote. So now
978
00:48:36.480 --> 00:48:38.880
that was a bit of a surprise. But does that
979
00:48:38.900 --> 00:48:41.940
mean something is coming after the midterms or what is
980
00:48:42.000 --> 00:48:46.780
really driving his thinking here? But also some are saying
981
00:48:46.800 --> 00:48:50.239
this is ahead Maybe this is to get Iran to
982
00:48:50.280 --> 00:48:52.400
drop its guard. We'll have to see. But look, these
983
00:48:52.460 --> 00:48:54.800
past couple days, a lot less oil has been getting
984
00:48:54.840 --> 00:48:58.030
through the strait. Iran has ramped up its attacks on ships.
985
00:48:58.130 --> 00:49:01.030
Last week, they managed to get a good amount of
986
00:49:01.250 --> 00:49:02.969
oil through the strait thanks to the U.S.
987
00:49:03.010 --> 00:49:03.309
Navy.
988
00:49:03.630 --> 00:49:05.889
But this week, it's been a lot less, so it's
989
00:49:05.909 --> 00:49:08.389
been a bit trickier. So I think the president is
990
00:49:08.429 --> 00:49:10.190
watching those oil flows very carefully.
991
00:49:10.429 --> 00:49:13.820
Today, oil is down about three-quarters of a percent. Brent's
992
00:49:13.840 --> 00:49:17.679
down almost a full percent. And I don't know why
993
00:49:17.900 --> 00:49:21.099
the president would need to head fake Iran. because he
994
00:49:21.139 --> 00:49:23.480
says we took out all their stuff months ago. There's
995
00:49:23.500 --> 00:49:26.440
nothing for him to fight back with. Maybe this signals
996
00:49:26.500 --> 00:49:30.199
that there's some progress made in peace talks, but I'm
997
00:49:30.239 --> 00:49:32.320
not going to hold my breath on that, Rory. I
998
00:49:32.400 --> 00:49:35.760
appreciate your reporting on all of this and more throughout
999
00:49:35.889 --> 00:49:38.809
the weeks here on 1110 KFAB. Thanks a lot for
1000
00:49:38.829 --> 00:49:39.260
checking in.
1001
00:49:40.269 --> 00:49:41.530
Hey, thanks. Have a great weekend.
1002
00:49:41.570 --> 00:49:45.030
You too. That's our national correspondent, Rory O'Neill, here on
1003
00:49:45.050 --> 00:49:49.150
Nebraska's Morning News. That music means we got Greg here.
1004
00:49:56.670 --> 00:49:59.010
Why in the world would you do such a stupid
1005
00:49:59.050 --> 00:50:02.010
thing as to mess with a country boy, especially one
1006
00:50:02.050 --> 00:50:04.670
like Greg Wagner from Nebraska Game and Parks, who now
1007
00:50:04.750 --> 00:50:07.889
joins us. for his regular Friday meeting with us. We
1008
00:50:07.909 --> 00:50:10.010
have a meeting every Friday. We have a meeting. It's
1009
00:50:10.030 --> 00:50:15.889
a big meeting. 1110 KFAB. Greg, it's a Husker football weekend.
1010
00:50:15.989 --> 00:50:16.250
It is.
1011
00:50:16.269 --> 00:50:17.849
First of all, how are we feeling about the game?
1012
00:50:18.550 --> 00:50:19.429
I'm optimistic.
1013
00:50:19.590 --> 00:50:23.469
I'm kind of with Rosie, but we're apprehensive. I like
1014
00:50:23.530 --> 00:50:27.860
Gary's prediction earlier. One-point victory. It's going to be tight.
1015
00:50:28.699 --> 00:50:32.460
But penalties and special teams, just like you heard from Jim.
1016
00:50:32.219 --> 00:50:34.880
And Gary and you, we're going to win.
1017
00:50:34.940 --> 00:50:35.179
One point.
1018
00:50:35.380 --> 00:50:38.739
Hot, windy weekend. What does that do for some outdoor activities?
1019
00:50:38.760 --> 00:50:41.179
We'll start with our state parks. It's summer-like.
1020
00:50:41.199 --> 00:50:44.480
So, you know, this time of year, we don't want
1021
00:50:44.539 --> 00:50:46.960
cool and rainy. We have a lot of Halloween events
1022
00:50:47.000 --> 00:50:52.559
going in our state parks. We've got campground decorating, trunk retreating,
1023
00:50:53.199 --> 00:50:55.059
haunted hayrack rides at some parks.
1024
00:50:55.670 --> 00:50:56.469
That's nice.
1025
00:50:56.530 --> 00:50:59.360
Each park has its own Halloween flair. Lots of those
1026
00:50:59.389 --> 00:51:01.480
going in the eastern Nebraska parks especially.
1027
00:51:01.760 --> 00:51:03.900
It's funny. Growing up in Nebraska, you kind of have
1028
00:51:03.920 --> 00:51:07.440
to come up with a Halloween costume as a kid
1029
00:51:07.920 --> 00:51:10.900
that can be layered. Add more to it and not
1030
00:51:10.960 --> 00:51:13.070
lose the costume. It would take a lot away. That's
1031
00:51:13.110 --> 00:51:16.849
why every year it's either Jason Voorhees. You can add
1032
00:51:16.869 --> 00:51:20.230
bulk to it. And be tougher or take a lot
1033
00:51:20.269 --> 00:51:25.309
of that stuff off, and then you're sexy, Jason Voorhees. Ooh, there. Yeah,
1034
00:51:25.429 --> 00:51:26.210
it's very.
1035
00:51:27.829 --> 00:51:28.250
Capable.
1036
00:51:28.309 --> 00:51:30.929
So what about fishing? Fishing has evened out a little
1037
00:51:30.969 --> 00:51:33.349
bit because of no rain.
1038
00:51:33.929 --> 00:51:34.650
Nice days.
1039
00:51:35.289 --> 00:51:37.300
Our crappie bite has picked up quite a bit.
1040
00:51:37.780 --> 00:51:39.110
That's good news for anglers.
1041
00:51:40.320 --> 00:51:42.960
Zurinsky Lake is a nice place to go, maybe where
1042
00:51:42.980 --> 00:51:45.219
the box elder is kind of feeding in. You need
1043
00:51:45.239 --> 00:51:49.360
to work real tight to cover. with Jig's Jig Minnow
1044
00:51:49.389 --> 00:51:52.079
presentations as we talk the lingo here.
1045
00:51:52.360 --> 00:51:53.460
And we're going to stock trout.
1046
00:51:54.079 --> 00:51:56.300
We have trout that will be in Lake 18 at
1047
00:51:56.380 --> 00:51:57.460
Fremont for the weekend.
1048
00:51:57.860 --> 00:51:58.480
Good.
1049
00:51:58.500 --> 00:52:01.860
12-inch pan-sized rainbows. More coming to the metro lakes next week.
1050
00:52:02.539 --> 00:52:04.920
Last week we were talking about flooding impacting a lot
1051
00:52:04.960 --> 00:52:07.460
of that activity. Everything kind of back to normal in
1052
00:52:07.519 --> 00:52:10.099
terms of what we normally have as lakes and streams
1053
00:52:10.159 --> 00:52:10.539
around here.
1054
00:52:10.840 --> 00:52:12.000
Yeah, got some water.
1055
00:52:11.760 --> 00:52:13.739
Sitting here and there in the low-lying areas, but by
1056
00:52:13.780 --> 00:52:15.239
and large we're.
1057
00:52:15.139 --> 00:52:16.599
Sitting pretty good. What about hunting?
1058
00:52:17.250 --> 00:52:20.889
Well, out west, firearm antelope hunting season getting underway. Our
1059
00:52:20.949 --> 00:52:25.429
fall turkey season is also underway statewide. The big thing
1060
00:52:25.550 --> 00:52:29.340
is our crop harvest is now going strong, full throttle.
1061
00:52:29.780 --> 00:52:35.139
So don't impact negatively that farmer with the fields you
1062
00:52:35.159 --> 00:52:37.400
want to hunt maybe to try to get in for
1063
00:52:37.559 --> 00:52:41.409
archery deer hunting. So talk to your farmers. Again, don't
1064
00:52:41.449 --> 00:52:42.429
impact their livelihood.
1065
00:52:42.650 --> 00:52:45.610
And on the outdoor bulletin board, Greg. Speaking of deer.
1066
00:52:46.389 --> 00:52:49.860
It might not seem like it with high temperatures this weekend,
1067
00:52:50.480 --> 00:52:53.489
but you need to start watching out for deer on roads.
1068
00:52:54.170 --> 00:52:56.190
Their rut is just kind of beginning.
1069
00:52:56.210 --> 00:52:59.280
The crop harvest is going, so they're stirred up in
1070
00:52:59.320 --> 00:53:03.289
the countryside. Got some hunting for bow hunting, and look out.
1071
00:53:03.429 --> 00:53:04.989
So be careful driving.
1072
00:53:04.710 --> 00:53:05.150
At low light.
1073
00:53:05.510 --> 00:53:08.119
Always a pleasure, Greg Wagner. Go Big Red, and have
1074
00:53:08.159 --> 00:53:08.880
a great weekend.
