[Husker] excited about Maine (fwd)

> Is Jack Cosgrove at Maine related to Kevin Cosgrove at Nebraska? 

Jack is from MA and played for Maine, Kevin is from Illinois and played 
for Illinois Benedictine.  They could be distant relatives, I suppose,
but I don't see anything in their bios to suggest even that.

Maine is just the latest in a string of school that Nebraska has brought 
in as the 'bum of the month'.  (The Joe Lewis reference is intentional,
let's just hope there isn't a Billy Conn or James J. Braddock on the 
Husker schedule.)

Nebraska has long had have problems finding schools willing to come to 
Lincoln without a return visit.  Get used to it, it's likely to be even 
more common when a 12 game schedule becomes the standard.
