nebraskapit Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Wow, the crowd was awesome today. From everyone jumping around after our late TD, to cheering our team and chanting "Go Big Red" after the game, I was really impressed with the crowd. It was definitely the loudest I've heard Memorial Stadium. Quote Link to comment
jb61264 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I heard that the new North stadium addition was literally swaying back and forth...anybody sit in the newer section? Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I heard that the new North stadium addition was literally swaying back and forth...anybody sit in the newer section? Yessir, it did. Felt like the stands were on springs. Quote Link to comment
nebraskapit Posted October 22, 2006 Author Share Posted October 22, 2006 Was West Stadium actually jumping up and down before the kickoff after we took the lead?? I'm surprised McCoy wasn't bothered more by the noise. Quote Link to comment
bornNUred Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 This is why Husker fans are the best. What an electric atmosphere. Quote Link to comment
hskrfan4life Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 we do have the best fans Quote Link to comment
big poppa Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Even though we lost it was a fun and exciting game..the crowd was great...sit in the South Stadium by the students and the crowd was more stunned that we lost then anything. If there is any justice in the world then Bevo died a slow and painful mascot death (sorry PETA) AND whoever ate the steaks got sick. Quote Link to comment
I See Red People Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Yesterday at Memorial stadium is what college football is all about. I wasn't at yesterday's game, but I've spoke with a few people who were there. The weather, the snow, made it feel special. Cheering after the loss shows that we know what this is all about - a game. The greatest game in the greatest place to play. Quote Link to comment
Eric the Red Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I've been to dozens of Husker games, home and away, and I've never experienced anything like yesterday. Quote Link to comment

The greatest game in the greatest place to play. It was unreal. The wind started to kick up, the snow started to fall hard. Like a fellow Husker fan said at the tailgate, "I couldn't have dreamed it better". I thought the, we were going to win. The snow and wind got the crowd really pumped up for the that second to last (should have been the last) drive by Texas. It was a great day to be in Memorial Stadium. Quote Link to comment

eliot1171 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I sat in the third row of section 16 next to the student section. I have been to many games and the atmosphere was simply explosive. After the touchdown during the 'trick play series' I somehow ended up two rows up and like 5 seats over hugging some some random girl and guy. <---Thats what footballs all about. I can't remember the last time I was that excited for anything. I still feel like we won and I'm still kind of in denial. The fans of BOTH teams were amazing. When I was driving back to my place I fell asleep because I had probably use all of my adrenaline. The only bad thing about this game besides losing, is my voice is still gone this morning.

TrueHuskerFan Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I wish I could have been there, I thought Texas in '02 was awesome... Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I wasn't at the game but I could hear the crowd through the tv. Moreso, than normal. Great job everybody. Quote Link to comment
huskerdavo Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I was in the newer area of the North Stadium Section 32. I think I magically hurdled a railing behind me on the Lucky TD pass and hugged too many dudes. Like six or seven (there needs to be more women in this section). That being said it would have been great if we had won but since we didnt, I felt dirty afterwards with man-flesh all over me. It was the most electric feeling in the world I was jumping all over the place and the crowd was on fire. I cannot believe it didnt affect the frosh QB but all and all the swirling snow flurries and late comeback on two trick plays one of which I have never seen work(double-reverse) it was the most impressed I have been with this team and fans in a long time. I was and am still hurt by this loss but if ever there was a time you could plead a case for a moral victory(if those exist) this would be it IMHO. Quote Link to comment
