I was not that familiar with Nebraska fb except for Johnny Rogers and the great coaches thru history. I had already heard the fans were GREAT, and was planning on going to Lincoln for a game. (on my bucket list, as I am 56 with a disease, but love away games and have been to every stadium in the big 10 cept for Huskers.) Concern- I know, we have some really bad, ignorant fans. eg-I saw a kid in his 20's literally spit in an older gentleman's face who was only with his wife at a Mich game here in Columbus. I wished I could have done something like when I was in shape like when I played for OSU. (walkon-neck injury-1 yr only in 1975) I HATE seeing that crap. Then I heard how hospitable Neb. fans are and how fun it is. The night b4 the game I even met a Neb fan in Kroger. VERY nice older man (70+). shook my hand and said "may the best team win." I just loved that attitude, and said "same to you sir." Now..............Bo Pelini has seen script Ohio over 100 times. he grew up here. watched in on TV as a kid for years, and at pep rallies when he was a captain here, etc. etc. Why put the huge duffel bag of footballs EXACTLY where the dotting of the "I" happens. Indigent people save for years to take a kid to see the game and script OH in person. Was Neb. actually going that direction in the 2nd half. Not accusing you, but just asking. (I rewatched the game and I think they were.). I CAN SAY that has NEVER happened in the history of script OH. (over 105 years??) MUCH more important question/comment. I should have found the specific strings, but too lazy to find them and I just registered for this post. Some poster under something about "I hate Urban" or something similar. I will say, he may be the most hated coach in America. eg-My own Mother, summa cum laude from OSU, does not like him!! She says he "looks mean" and is too serious. well.........she is 79 and loved woody. so there you have it. she has alzheimers. He is hated. I agree. Did he run it up? Compared to Tress, yes. Tress was a "pollitican", but remember a liar and cheater. Too long I know..............question. why did your poster say "he hopes someone does not give a crap and give Braxton a hard cheap shot that ends his career." That is sad. That would be like doing it to Martinez. Even Urban would not endorse that crap. I guess it could become a "fad." Maybe Hoke does it vs. Mich, then the next great player gets his ankle twisted 360 degrees in a pile and ruins his college and pro career. Who knows? Why because this fan did not like seeing 60+ would he say that? sure, i hate seeing 60 dropped on osu, but that is the game. WE WERE running our 2nd string RB the whole game. remember Hall is injured. Hall is by far #1. He has been out most of the year.... Hyde #34 is #2 and Rod Smith is actually #4 who scored the prior TD. Dunn is #3 but had some "issues" in practice with staff. Are these few fans with these posts representative of Husker Nation? I cannot believe that. The cheap shot post really concerned me. This could become a national thing. Say Cam Newton was dominating a game for Auburn. Send in a 4th string or walk on to get him in a pile up and twist that ankle 3 times ina circle and put him in a wheelchair for 10 years. It IS POSSIBLE. I never really thought about it, until reading your member/fan's post. Hoping someone cheap shots Miller. Come on now folks.
