Yeah, the stadium was LOUD all the way through. EVERYTHING got the crowd going. Introductions. Big plays. Penalties. Chippiness. It was crazy that night. 1 Quote Link to comment
Dansker Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Saturday reminds me of the 2009 game @ home under the lights vs. Oklahoma. Neither team was flashy that year save for our defense. We need the crowd to roar all night long. The players will feed off this energy because they don't have a head coach that'll light a fire under their collective asses. There is something about Memorial Stadium under the lights with 85k+ it's a college football player's dream. This is why they came here -- for games like this, to live in these moments. Take care of Wisconsin, stay humble and then put the Buckeyes in your sights for another home night game. Quote Link to comment

We ran all over them that night and Ameer was cut loose. Seems like ages ago. Quote Link to comment
Old Nebraska Guy Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 (edited) 22 hours ago, soup said: Nebraska has been very lucky with injured QBs in night games. Michigan (Denard Robinson left in the 1st qtr), Ohio St. (Tyrell Pryor? left in the 1st qtr, Joe B stepped into clinch defeat from the jaws of victory) and I believe Michigan St's QB was dinged up also. The Ohio St. game was at the time the largest comeback by Nebraska ever. (still may be). Actually, Miller left with 4:46 left in the third and Robinson left 3:51 left in the second. 22 hours ago, soup said: Edited October 4, 2017 by Old Nebraska Guy 1 Quote Link to comment

Ummm...maybe you aren't as old as I am. The "losing respect for them" had very little to do with what was happening that night on the field. 2 Quote Link to comment

We weren't booing them prior to the game. It was more towards the middle to the end once we realized they were getting flagged for unsportsmanlike calls and instigating fights.

Landlord Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 The dirtiness of Miami that night is overblown and overexaggerated by Husker fan's collective animosity towards Miami in general. It mostly related to two scuffles involving Randy Gregory, as well as a weak roughing the passer call on the part of the refs. Gregory was certainly not an innocent bystander in either of those situations. Quote Link to comment

The Miami players could have helped us off the field every play and shook our hands after every play and they were going to get booed. BRB remembers as many of us do how the teams from 70's 80's 90's for Miami played and acted. 1 Quote Link to comment

But there was a lot more going on slightly after the whistle than "two scuffles." 2 Quote Link to comment

All I'm saying is that the crowd wanted blood moreso because it was Miami than because of a proportionate response to any actions on their part. 2 Quote Link to comment

If NU comes to play on Saturday night the crowd will be similar (not because of how Wisc has acted - more so because of our desire to edge closer to being the big brother). Quote Link to comment
