If I'm not mistaken the Huskers only snapped the ball one time in the Red Zone against KSU and that play resulted in the first touchdown of the game, Taylor Martinez' 14 yard run. I cannot ever remember a win where we only had 1 snap in the Red Zone let alone a blow out win! Pretty cool!
Red Zone vs KSU
- Thread starter BigFella
- Start date
Through 5 games the Huskers have scored 25 offensive touchdowns coming from an average distance of 33.5 yards out. That is a big play offense regardless of who we have played. My point was not about the competition it's about the fact we only had the ball in side the KSU 20 for 1 play all game, we've played a lot worse teams over the years than this KSU team, find a game where we only had on snap in the Red Zone, I've been an avid fan for over 40 years and can't remember that ever happening that's it. Sorry if that fact needs to make you take a negative "glass is half empty" approach to viewing the Huskers, take it from me the glass is a lot more than half full, it's been 9 years since we've been ranked this high or been this good. Enjoy the ride, I sure am!
If I'm drinking Kool Aid so are the voters in both the coaches pole and the writers pole, as a life long Husker fan I'm choosing to enjoy this season and believe it can be special. If you don't want to enjoy it that is your choice, but being a fan is much more fun when you have a positive view of your team, try it you might like it.

I see you are a newer poster so I hope I didn't offend you, but when you put posts on a message board you shouldn't become so defensive about other opinion and posts. You'll wind up bitter.
I'm not bitter and I have thousands of post on other Husker boards, read the OP my point was about a very odd situation 1 snap in the red zone and your reply instead of addressing my post was about our weak schedule and you not believing in this team, you took a post that had nothing to do strength of schedule or level of opponents and used the post to rag on our team, looking for a chance to be negative in a post that should have been about Husker history and nostalgia. My reply point was that I don't understand fans that can view an undefeated and top 10 rated team in a negative way, especially after where Callahan took this program to 4 years ago, I understand that you do I just don't understand how you get any enjoyment out of being a Husker fan if your view of this years team in a negative fashion.
