Introduce Yourself


Recommended Posts

1) How long have you been a member of Husker Nation? Around 30 years...8 to 10 years old. Watch NU vs OK games from California. And the bowl games. Listen to the radio - games in Northern Ca were on the radio during the 90's.

2) What/who led you to The Nation? A few things. Family friends live in Lincoln and used to visit during the summers when I was a kid. Loved (option) the style of play since I was an O-lineman. I Love the class of the fans, the program, and the history of the program. Loved the idea of beating schools with top 10 recruiting classes due to working harder, coaching kids up, and long-term focus.

3) Where are you from originally? California

 

4) Where do you live now? California

 

5) Favorite Husker memory? 1994 NC over Miami. Had to live thru a long time with T.O. getting a NC. Oklahoma owning T.O. and the loss to Miami in 1983. I was so excited that I bit thru my tongue, and it was bleeding, when NU scored the winning touchdown. AWESOME!!! Beat the Miami gangsters.

 

6) Worst Husker memory? 1983 National Championship loss. Why didn't they run the ball in. I agreed with going for 2. But run the damn ball. A very close 2nd bad memory would be how the program declined due to Peterson's selfish attitude.

 

7) Number of home games attended? 4

 

8) Number of away games attended? counting bowl games 3.

 

9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel? Homemade Nebraska Cornhuskers blanket by an +80 year old family friend that lives in Nebraska City.

 

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

 

11) Favorite all time player? Offensive side - Scott Frost. Loved the quarterback keeper, pause and let the running back go thru the hole first. He hit it so hard. Of course there are +20 other guys I liked. Loved the O-lineman.

On Defense, I would have to say the D-Lineman during the mid-90's.

 

12) WCO or Option? Loved the option, but a hybrid closer the current offense is better. Have to be able to throw the ball. O-Lineman can't block the speed that D-Lineman have now.

14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker? Neither, both are SOFT mascots.

15) Favorite Husker play? Fullback up the gut

 

16) Favorite game-day beverage? At home alone - Water, Coors Lite with friends, Red wine in the 4th quarter.

17) How did you find HuskerBoard? been reading it for years....search engine I guess...

I am new to the board and was at my first Husker Football game this past saturday. I am from North Dakota. I am trying to find out what the song/chant or what ever it was when the defense was in 3rd down situations the blackshirts word would shoot around the video boards and a chant like priests or monks would be going. Where or how would i find that chant on the internet or how would i look it up? It was really cool. Thanks!
