Should probably learn karate quick! Depends on where you are sitting. If you are around Huskers you'll be ok, not great but ok. If your around CU fans, wear a helmet.

You'll be fine. CU students started getting the full week of Thanksgiving off last year, which means that this year untold amounts of the rowdiest fans in the stadium will be masquerading as empty seats. Remember, a good 50% of CU students come from out of state, and many of those kids are the ones that have given CU fans such a bad reputation in the past (particularly the kids from the northeast and LA).
The athletic department is actually pretty worried about the kind of attendance they're going to get for this game. They're expecting at least 7,000 students to be out of town, and the Nebraska folks aren't gobbling up the extra tickets like they usually do this year, so CU's being faced with a situation where there might be a bunch of empty seats visible on TV (especially in the student section, obviously).
If these teams were both ranked obviously none of this would be a problem, but apparently... um, that's not the case.

If I was a fan of another team the last thing I would be doing is bragging about how my team beat this Nebraska team.

None taken, and I'm not trying to make a general statement about CU fans here. All I'm saying is that if you're expecting Folsom to look like the Thunderdome 2 weeks from now, you're probably going to be sorely disappointed (or perhaps "relieved" would be the better adjective).

I don't know of too many CU fans anticipating some sort of smack down this year. We don't know which team will show up for us, is is the team that beat OU and Tech or is it the team that laid down against Mizzou and K-State? On paper NU has wayyyyyyyyy more talent then we do, I anticipate 2-3 years of rebuilding before we really start to show some signs of consistency.
rrogersne, you will be fine, all these stories you hear are the same rehashed stories that are now being passed down from Husker generation to Husker generation. Good luck and enjoy the game, I am envious of you.

yep. beating CU would be a good end to a less than acceptable season.
don't know that 6-6 gets us a bowl bid after all, unless we showed the same improvement and smack down against CU.....that would be the only way for us to go post season.....another plus for the players and next year's new coach!

Actually, the box score is wrong. The game was a tie, the refs just waved off overtime for... you know, no reason whatsoever. :angry:Redbolt said:
And NO, I'm not going to let this one go. My Buffs got absolutely SCREWED out of bowl eligibility today, and I am PISSED.
