5) Favorite Husker memory?

In the stands for the 2001 matchup against Oklahoma (at home). Knowing something "special" was going to happen. Mike Stuntz lived next door to my roomate and I. So we waited the whole game, just waiting and waiting. Then I remember I was eating a slice of pizza and heard; "Eric!!! Eric!!!" I looked up and the OTHER Eric (Crouch) was running down the sidelines and my roomate and I looked at each other and just started screaming before he even caught it. It was one of those rare moments that you know something awesome is going to happen, but you are still surprised to see it. Not to mention, being on the two-page picture in Sports Illustrated (Background).

 

6) Worst Husker memory?

How loud the stadium was in 2002 against Texas when DeJuan Groce nearly ran his punt return for a TD. The crowd was absolutely insane, loud, and just downright crazy. The Huskers later lined up for the last play of the game, the pass went up the stadium went silent, and it was picked off. Only a minute roar from the far tip of South Stadium was making noise. That was it, the upset over Texas...wasn't going to happen.

 

7) Number of home games attended?

Wow, I don't remember...I attended 1 in 94, 1 in 99, and all the home games in 2001, 2002, and all but 2 in 2003.

1...KSU in 2004

 

9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel?

10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game? (section in Memorial, bar, friends house etc.)

The Drafthouse in Omaha. My wife is the bar manager, it's a great atmosphere, great crowd, GREAT food, and the beer is always ICE COLD. 180th and Pacific

 

11) Favorite all time player?

Cory Ross without a doubt. I had class with him in 2002, and always thought he should be playing more. I saw how shifty he was when he was put in for more or less mop up duty. To see him arise like he did with the Huskers in 2.5 different offenses (2002 and 2003 were different, a little), was just incredible. He had so much heart and determination. I loved that kid.

 

12) WCO or Option?

WEST COAST without a doubt

 

13) Stevie Pederson or Billy Byrne?

Pederson

 

14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker?

Herbie, Lil Red irritates the hell out of me

[Landlord]

y helo thar, nice to see all my fellow redclad supporters. i guess the thing to do is fill out this little questionaire, so here you are..

 

 

1) How long have you been a member of Husker Nation?

unofficially for 17 years, but i've only really, really gotten involved and into the sports over the last few years (just maturing i guess )

2) What/who led you to The Nation?

my family? the state? not really sure how to answer this one

3) Where are you from originally?

I was born in Sioux City, moved to Jamestown North Dakota at the age of 2, and then to Nebraska at the age of 8, but always been a Husker fan.

4) Where do you live now?

Columbus

5) Favorite Husker memory?

I was going to say my first game attendance, but since that was against southern mississippi in '04, that would be lying. so instead, i would have to say the '05 alamo bowl (like i said, i'm still a rookie)

6) Worst Husker memory?

the repeated chances at greatness snatched away (texas tech, texas)

7) Number of home games attended?

two so far, looking to change that quite a bit now that i'm out of the house and into higher education

8) Number of away games attended?

heh, none

9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel?

i have a very simple white nebraska t-shirt that for some unknown reason, really appeals to me

10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game? (section in Memorial, bar, friends house etc.

couldn't say, i like to watch different games at different places and with different surroundings every week

11) Favorite all time player?

this is really tough, and call me cliche all you want, but i will go with zac taylor, mainly because he is the face of nebraska quarterbacks that i have been in contact with and familiar with more than any other

12) WCO or Option?

i'm split down the middle; the option is the funnest offense in football history, and is equally as fun to watch, but the wco is also quite fun and is a healthy change

13) Stevie Pederson or Billy Byrne?

pederson will do

14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker?

lil red (and NOT because i'm a rook), i mean he freaking bounces on his head!

15) Favorite Husker play?

Frazier's run, Crouch throwback, or even better, taylor's attempt at a reception

16) Favorite game-day beverage?

heh, diet pepsi or lemonade
