I would like to thank senior quarterback Joe Ganz (Gator Bowl MVP) for his clam demeanor, cool playmaking and, most especially, his complete class. Joe, you will be missed. So too will senior wide receivers Nate Swift and Todd Peterson who caught just about every ball ever thrown their way. I'd like to thank running back Marlon Lucky whose senior season no doubt was not quite what he envisioned but whose contributions to the program have been both many and meaningful. I'd like to thank defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh who so often this season made like Cosmo Kramer at the dojo and dominated (please come back for one more year, Ndamukong!). I'd like to thank defensive tackle Ty Steinkuhler and running back Quentin Castille both of whose studliness in Jacksonville knew no bounds. I'd like to thank cornerback Eric Hagg who made quite possibly the biggest play of the whole 2009 Gator Bowl (see photo below). I'd like to thank kicker Alex Henery whose field goals are as automatic as my jukebox playlists containing at least one Kylie Minogue song. I'd like to thank wide receiver Niles Paul of whom I said a few very unflattering things during the Gator Bowl and, thus, to whom I'd like to apologize (heat of the moment, Niles). And, of course, I'd like to thank head coach Bo Pelini, so clearly the right man for the job whose awesome factor has proceeded into the stratosphere.

I'd like to thank every other Nebraska player and coach and congratulate all of them on a wonderous 2008 season. I'll never forget any of it. I'm already counting the days 'til the next one. How about we set a date for January 1, 2010, what do ya' say?

Wouldn't you rather set a date for a few days later, since the damn BCS won't let the championship game be played on Jan 1. No it should be on a Thursday. How stupid, a THURSDAY!!
