Halloween Past.. Not so scary for Nebraska


Recommended Posts

I think my favorite Halloween moment was when then 3rd string QB Monte "The Count" Christo was dressed up like "Count Dracula" on Huskervision in his first career Start for Nebraska in a hard fought losing effort over Texas in 1998. The only loss Nebraska ever suffered on Halloween.

I was at the 92 game. It was Tommie Frazier's 1st home start and the game was on ESPN. Both Nebraska and Colorado were ranked 8th in the polls. We hadn't beaten CU for three years straight, actually we tied them 19-19 the previous year. CU had the ball first and our defense intercepted Koy Detmer on the first play of the game, then our offense scored!!! It was all over after that, the Husker's rolled on Halloween, it was a blast of a game. I believe it was about the end of the 3rd quarter beginning of the 4th and the whole crowd started chanting, WE WANT MORE, WE WANT MORE!!! I swear it sounded like thunder. 52-7 Nebraska.

Yeah, that was a great game and the crowd was the loudest I ever heard at Memorial Stadium. Wasn't their a snowstorm before the game if I remember right. It was freaking cold but worth it to see CU go down.

Yes, the weather was god awful!!! It was like a snow/sleet mixture, but we didn't care, we had so much fun during the game it didn't matter. I have numerous picture I took during the game, the best are the ones afterwards. We were in the south endzone and I have great shots of the goal posts coming down.
