Well here we go...

...headed downtown to our usual pre-game haunt, then to our usual band of goofies in the South Stadium.  First time in two years.. couldn't make it last season.  We'll be the loudest "Go Big Red" and "Husker Power" screechers in the stadium.

 

Be there or be square!  GBR!!

Loud. Heart sunk first half.  Then hell  broke loose enough times in a row to turn it into the old feeling of a Nebraska game, if you know what I mean.  
 

But yes.. LOUD.

A lot of newbies.  A lot of kids.  What was cool was seeing the hordes of red clad fans of all ages downtown again.  We got there early and it was quiet.  After an hour and a half in the Zoo Bar we headed out and it was like the old days.  Glad to see that after two years and especially after all we’ve been through as Husker fans.  
 

At the stadium the atmosphere was subdued during most of the first half, but got old time loud as we began to get something on the scoreboard.  And yes, the rumors are true:  Frost did order an onside kick after one of our scores. Failed of course.

Headed downtown but this time not stopping at our haunts.  Just the union then the stadium to watch The Upset Of The Century as we outscore The Pretenders To The Throne, Oklahoma.  Johnny Rogers and others will be there, but Johnny the Jet will inspire the win for us.

Yeah, a   is about it for that game.

Young couple (30s) in Husker gear getting into their car on M street by the library.. the guy said, rather matter of factly, "I guess Nebraska doesn't have football anymore." Gal, "The Haymarket is cool for food, then we can go to that rabbit hole place downstairs for the dessert stuff they have cake pops and amazing cheese cake..... blah .(voice trailed off).."   Kansas plates.  Must've driven up for the game.
