I'm sure this was in another thread, but I wante to highlight it here.
Should everyone bring Blackshirt Towles to the game, then?

"There was concern that our red would blend into all that cardinal and gold," said David Max, who lives in Irvine and is president of Californians for Nebraska, 2,000 strong. "So we're going to wave Blackshirt Towels when we're on defense. I think you'll see us.
"USC sold all its season tickets this year because of Nebraska fans. USC put the game tickets on sale, on line, on a Friday in February. We bought 7,000 over the weekend. Then USC said you had to buy season tickets to get Nebraska tickets and we bought them, too.
"We think we'll have about 25,000 there Saturday. And for those who bought season tickets, I guess they'll just put the Notre Dame tickets on eBay."
A USC official doubts the Huskers will make such a splash, noting that only 300 season-ticket orders came from Nebraska zip codes, as did orders for about 3,400 single-game tickets.
But that doesn't count "Cali-braskans." Besides, these people are different. The Nebraska spring game - Huskers vs. Huskers - draws more than 60,000.
