my dad and i went to that game as for what i was told was my birthday and christmas present, FOREVER. I remember being terrified of losing. Somewhere in the first quarter, my dad told me "dont worry, theres gonna be a lot of points scored in this game." Little did i know that we would hang 62. Unbelieveable memories. Thanks for the post Street.

What an awesome present! We had moved to Arizona the summer before, and were in search of tickets, but alas could not find any. I did make the 1999 Fiesta Bowl, but would have loved to have been able to attend that game.

I wonder if the turf/grass argument was ever brought up again in a college football game..

Loved the joke about playing on grass, lol

Sweet! Nice to see the announcers giving Charlie McBride props. Husker fans sometimes forget how great the Blackshirts were in the mid 90s run.

Amazing times, this is what we need to get back to.

And that is how dads become heros

I hate talking about stuff like this; I’m so used to living in the past with husker football. I’ve probably watched this game at least 10-12 times. I hope that Bo restores the order.

Awesome clip and thanks for posting. Been awhile since I re-lived that game. I was lucky enough to be in attendance.

Really glad my name isn't "Purd."

Never heard it since. Quite possibly the dumbest argument ever made in the first place, and we put 'em all in their place

I didnt see it in this clip, but i specifically remember the woman reporter asking Tom about his decision to play LP or something on those lines and the crowd started to chant "CBS Sucks". LOL

It's in the clip. Go back and watch the whole thing. Michelle Tafoya asked Coach Osborne about his decision to play LP and the entire crowd booed. very funny
