Husker Power Chant?

[BIGREDIOWAN]

Hey everyone,

 

I went to the game yesterday and it couldn't have been a better day for a Husker football game. Took 3 Iowa fans with me and they were blown away! My question is I went to the Western Michigan game as well as the Baylor game and at both games they didn't do the Husker Power Chant? What the hell is up with this as this was one of my favorite things to be a part of at the games? It just would've been neat for the Iowa fans to see this on top of everything else.

Cheerleaders messed up both times...they were too busy running around and such to do the cheer.

 

It has been done at the other games, you've just been unlucky both times.

Well I guess I'm unlucky then. I'm happy to hear they haven't stopped doing this because it's cool to be a part of.

They only do it when there is a lapse between band/tunnel walk. Yesterday, there was no more time to do it. They had the signs on the field, but the tunnel walk started and the team was out on the field 3 mins before the game. I was mad, too, but you've just been unlucky!

i noticed that as well. i havent been to a game in TOOO long, (think... years) and yesterday i had the chance to go. i first thought that they didnt do it anymore, but on the alltel text vote thing, it was listed as still being a tradition. oh well, maybe that will teach me to go to more games.

The student section still got it going after the Tunnel Walk so that was cool

That sucked yesterday... the whole pregame seemed rushed!

 

Usually everything gets shut off for a couple of minutes and then we do the Husker Power, but like right when the band finished yesterday they went right to the Tunnel Walk within seconds!

 

 

Also they were playing Can You Feel, the kick off song, before Baylor was even on the field.

 

My guess is it was due to the early kick off and maybe just bad timing that caused everything to be rushed

Pregame was running as usual for the SJS game earlier this year, which was also an 11:30 start. I woulda thought they'd have the kinks worked out by now.

That's disappointing, but my favorite pre game ritual has to be the

. Now that s&$t is PUNK ROCK!!! Gets me fired up every time!

Actually we did do the husker power chant... i don't remember if it was before or after the tunnel walk, but i definatly remember shouting "power".

 

And btw, i'm not confusing it with another game because this is the first one i've been to

Well the whole stadium didn't do it because I was in the stadium and in my seat 30 minutes before kickoff. You could hear a few sections trying to do something, but the stadium wasn't doing it as a whole.

yeah i went to the game too, I was suprised when the tunnel walk started so soon. The student section had it going for a while in the 2nd or 3rd quarter. I went to the Mizzou game and it was in Full form there.

Yeah...and I don't remember the loud echoing "GOOOOOOOOO BIIIIIIIIIG REEEEEDDDDD!" At all. Stadium did a pretty good job on 3rd downn noise. But keep in mind...it was 'just Baylor'.

went to the game yesterday, from denver....my brother and I noticed it wasn't being tried by the cheerleaders too...we tried to get it going a couple times in the north end zone and had a lot of participation, then the damn loud speakers would come blasting in some ad for valentino's or something.

 

also, the student section in the top of S. endzone had NOTICEABLY empty seats. 200-300 probably

 

but overall, i would say it was loud especially after the 4th down stops and the safety...

I would imagine that most of the stadium would be empty and you wouldn't hear the cheerleaders if you went to the game yesterday....because the game was on Saturday.
