Husker Nation - Troy fan here

Walk-on
Just got back home from a long weekend  in your great town of Lincoln.  The fans, ambiance, knowledge, stadium were/was incredible.  Things I learned were:  Misty's cooks a GREAT STEAK; Single Barrel was a GREAT TAILGATE; Railway district (?) and Haymarket were just fun and festive on Friday night, Saturday was a bit slower, understandably;  Stadium experience (other than hot as blazes - this from a guy that lives on the gulf coast in Florida) was phenomenal; KC Argosy Casino are thieves - they took all my money!

Your patience will be well worth it when Frost gets the guys he needs to run what he wants to run.  Both teams have some discipline problems they need to shore up.  No doubt our Special Teams were better - by far and our team speed showed up when running guys down from behind.  Koening (Troy DC) did a great job combating your size and strength on the O line and we got great pressure on your QB;  Our offense was just good enough on that last drive to make some great plays (our speed again) and turnovers are killers, and we just had less than you!

Great time folks - really enjoyed it.  I hope with all my heart that your team gets some things righted internally and Martinez gets healthy and your guys walk into the Big House and take care of business.  Good luck the rest of this season and beyond.

Go Troy - Cry HAVOC and slip the dogs of war!

 
NavarreTrojan, thanks for the kind words, hope you had a safe trip home and best of luck to Troy the rest of the way

 
I'm glad you had a great time here. (Though I wish you hadn't had quite as good a time if you know what I mean)  :) Hope you have a great season.  I was impressed by your team and coaches.  Thanks for the kind words!

He's right you know - 

Sorry if I offended any of you, didn't mean to imply, AT ALL, that we were "much better than you".  I thought our special teams won the game for us.  We averaged 54 yards a punt (including a 79 yarder that was only a 54 yard net) and we took one back to the house.  We did fumble a punt, but D showed up and held you to a field goal, and it looked like we were faster.  IF that isn't what you saw then I don't know what else to say.  

Good Luck Huskers!

Don't worry about it.  We're a fun loving group with some thick sarcasm.  I +1 Landlord's post.  Made me chuckle.

Nah our special teams were mostly garbage Saturday, no need to apologize.  We always appreciate opposing fans swinging by.

The punter for. Troy deserved the game ball. He should get the national award if he continues! 

Troy was faster. They attacked and brought more than could block. NU never countered it. I kept thinking a flea flicker would have worked the way the Lbers were running down hill. 

Fwiw: I LOVE those silver helmets.
