HuskerinSunDiego Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 In a show of support to Penn State players and the entire State College community, I think it would be cool if we replaced the red N on our helmets with a blue N this week. There is a lot of pain that there team and community is going through. Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Why don't we just put on blue ribbon stickers? Quote Link to comment
huskerscott Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Why dont we just show up and play. Then graciously shake there hands at the end of the game and say......"We are thinking of you guys and the families of the victims, hopefully you guys can get through this tough time. 6 Quote Link to comment

I head that too. I think it would be very cool if Husker fans wore some blue to the game. I like the idea of a blue sticker on our helmets too. Quote Link to comment
Omaha-Husker Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 A blue ribbon on the helmet or uniform would be more in place than a blue N. Quote Link to comment

There is a lot of pain that there team and community is going through. I don't necessarily agree with this. A very discreet show of support would be more than adequate. Doing anything to draw that much attention can be taken the wrong way. Right or wrong; to me part of the problem is lumping these tragic events together with this game. It is purely coincidental that NU is playing PSU during this tumultuous time. PSU needs to heal granted. Support the victims first and foremost. Attempt to understand and be empathetic to those struggling to comprehend how people they trusted could have allowed this to happen. It is a sad state of affairs all the way around no doubt. Lets not feed the media circus this has turned into. They will not postpone or cancel this game so our team has to play and move on. Pray for the victims and do whatever they can if so inclined; I just don't think this game should be used by NU as a way to make a statement about the events surrounding it. 1 Quote Link to comment

Osborne said he understand if Nebraska fans don't wear red to the game if they're worried about being singled out by Penn State fans. It's for safety reasons, not symbolism. 2 Quote Link to comment
HuskerCarter Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 +1 that is exactly what Tom Osborne said. Quote Link to comment

Apparently it was mentioned on a radio interview with KLIN. The only actual info I have seenis his statement cited in a huskerextra article which does not specifically reference that: http://my.journalstar.com/post/Husker_Extra_Group/Husker_Extra/blog/osbornes_statement.html Quote Link to comment
Vizsla1 Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 All the drama going on over there, I wonder how large of an audience will tune on Saturday to watch the game? Quote Link to comment

Hoosker Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 that'd be pretty cool. a show of good morals by our university. Quote Link to comment
ShawnWatson Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Blue N's???? What the sh#t is everyone talking about? We don't need some stupid symbolism to show support to child rape; just show up, be respectful, play a game and leave. 4 Quote Link to comment
