  1. Too many games to count for me been going since 1976.

     

    My first game was against TCU and they won something like 60-3.

     

    Saw Phil Bradley, Kellen Winslow, and James Wilder beat NU in 1978.

     

    Saw Turner Gill Come off the bench in 1981 and lead NU to victory over Auburn in a drizzling rain.

     

    Saw Marcus Dupree run for a big chunk of yards in 1982 but lose the game.

     

    Watched Mike Rozier run 75 yards to score a 3 yard TD against UCLA in 1983

     

    Watched Ken Clark duel Barry Sanders to a draw in 1988 I believe

     

    Watched Brook Barringer beat Wyoming with a collapsed lung in 1994

     

    Saw Eric Crouch throw catch and run for a TD against Cal in 1999

     

    Saw Black Flash 41 in 2001

     

    Saw The stadium empty in 2003 against KSU

     

    Watched NU lose to S. Miss in 2004

     

    Watched NU get its ass kicked by USC in 2007

     

    Left the stadium at halftime of the Okie St. game in 2007 and didn't come back. The only time I have ever left a game with more than a minute on the clock.

     

    Watched Alex Henery kick a 57 yarder against CU in 2009

     

    could go on, got to get back to work.

    Very cool list

  2. I wouldn't draw much at all from a spring game scrimmage. It's just that; it's probably even less valuable than NFL preseason games in terms of predicting what the fall will be like.

     

    It's just something to cap spring practice with a little fun for all.

     

     

     

    Seems to have turned into more of a recruiting tool. Which is not necessarily a bad thing.

  3. Chatelain: Freshman QB Patrick O’Brien’s first act is forgettable, but Huskers still see a star

     

    If all goes well in his development, O’Brien will look back at the 2016 spring game and laugh at his interception — and his emotional response. But Saturday afternoon, only his teammates and coaches saw the big picture. Defensive coordinator Mark Banker approached the “heartbroken” quarterback in the postgame scrum.

     

    “If that’s the worst thing that happens to you while you’re here at Nebraska,” Banker said, “you’re gonna have a great life.”

  4. #21 RB Wilbon - I think one more year and he's our featured back. Good wiggle and strength.

     

    #4 S Anderson - Played good safety and had possible the best hit of the game - driving the TE over the middle dislodging the ball to cause in incomplete pass.

     

    #18 - LB Berry - Seemed to be near the ball, added good weight and can run.

     

    P.S. Didn't catch the very end of the game (needed a beer) but Kasun had his moment that every Nebraska kid wants.
