DC Husker

What's the old saying "there's no such thing as bad advertising"? While that might be paraphrasing, the fact remains that it's always good to see the Huskers in the national spotlight. As long as they aren't portraying us as country bumpkins and hayseeds I say bring it on!

Lucky's more premedidated in his running style IMO. Helu can take very little and make something out of it. Would love to see them both in the backfield on Jan. 1

You sure you're on the right board Dog? Yes, it wasn't a particularly well played game but aside from a couple of boneheaded calls by our staff and some bad luck we looked pretty good. The clincher for me (aside from the last 2 minutes of the game) was the fact that unlike the last few years teams, this time the Huskers didn't give up. They've shown that grit all season and for the most part, this was the same team we had on the field last year. Give credit where credit is due. I'd rather win an ugly game than lose a pretty one!

The way we played today (minus a couple of long plays) makes me think the Buffs are in for a very long afternoon the day after Thanksgiving. Looks like giving the defense their Blackshirts worked-they played insipred today. BTW, first post on this board. Wanted to say hi to all. GBR!!
