Fans...

[Count 'Bility]

When a home team falls behind by 17 fricking points in the 2nd quarter to a team that is double digit dogs, the crowd is going to get quiet. It happens, AT EVERY SINGLE STADIUM IN THE COUNTRY, even in the NFL. It's called momentum. It's not pathetic Nebraska fans or an anomoly by any means. It's normal status quo. Everythings fine.

In fact, the crowd noise, even from 85 rows up was ear ringing. I'll admit I dont do my part. I love it as loud as can be, but I just cant yell like I used. My throat just wont take it anymore and I get light headed, so I make my tad bit of noise by clappin. But this game was awesome. I dont miss big games, and very very few can rank with this one in terms of noise. Oklahoma '09? Not even close, and we sat low for that one. Oklahoma '01? Maybe Crouch's TD, MAYBE. Maybe a couple big ones in the 90's. Ohio St. last year not even in the same conversation. But it was probably that fact that the OSU comeback happened last year that kept the crowd in it this year, because we still knew we had that glimmer of hope.

Watching the game on tv now, the crowd is 90's loud. Loudest crowd noise broadcast I have watched since before the pressbox renovation in 99. Before that, the tv cameras were on platforms out from the balcony, so they were down and in the stadium a bit, and more susceptible to the noise. After 99, they were moved out and above the club seat balcony, away from the noise more, and the crowd noise has seemed quieter on tv since. But this broadcast is comparable to 90's videos, and there's even a camera shake or two from some of the ground cameras. It was great.

I wonder how much the East expansion had to do with it.

I jacked the towel off a highly inebriated student one row in front of me.

I ejaculated in a towel and some guy behind me took it from me when I was drunk chuckleshuffle

I was wondering the same thing. To me it sounded louder than any game I've watched from the couch. Loudest in person was 2001 OU when Crouch caught that pass. But I've probably only been to 20 games total since I always needed the money in college.

Was it just the student section waving the black towels? They showed a part of the crowd waving them during the game and it looked pretty cool.

Our fans are pathetic... I see multiple kids around me who are no doubt recruits and every one is sitting on thier a$$... 35 yards line, 7 rows up. I'm disgusted.

Hey bro, remember that girl you tried to kiss, and got as far as sticking your tongue in her mouth before she punched you in the jaw? That wasn't a girl. I hope you enjoyed that pizza though, nevermind that you ate it upside down and dropped most of it.

Dem kids be checkin' their iPhones and not watchin' the foosball, and they're all inebriated and such, and then one of them takes a towel to the eye, and Osborne has to take em' away.

It's always fun until someone loses an eye.

Seriously though, by the 4th Q, my chest, head and throat were killing me! Kept thinking, ok my left arm isn't getting numb all is good.

I know the towel thing has been done...a lot...but maybe the reason it's been done so much is that it is really cool. I was watching on TV and when they started waving the towels you could sense how much the crowd was getting into the game (more than with just fan noise). Maybe they should hand them out (or sell them or whatever they did to distribute) to everyone. It could be a new tradition.
