Much better than freakin' Little Red. I still want to take one of Grandma's hat pins to that sumbiatch!
It was crazy when NU played OSU at Arrowhead Frankie's first year as HC. Inside and outside the stadium, everyone was so pumped up. The ration of Husker Red versus OSU colors was about 96 to 4. It was wall to wall Husker fans.
I shared Jimbosc's post with Mrs Fumble.
Her response was, "Thank God, we're not going to the game." She said she'd be trying to calm me down by reminding me the game doesn't start for another four hours.
When will the BHF chatroom open?
Will we get a live pre-game feed from Arrowhead Stadium?
Yes, I'm antsie.

I am a devious character.
The devious side noticed that the best way to game the predict the score thread is to post very early and then shortly before it closes, edit your post to what you really think will win. If someone else thinks the same, you were first. It's not a big edge, but it's an edge.
My character won't allow me to do it.

Yeah, when hub and I went to the NU/OSU game at Arrowhead during Solich's first year as HC, there was a traffic jam. Because we had lived in Leavenworth and spent a fair amount of time in KC, hub knew an alternative route and we got off 29. We barely got to our seats before kick-off and we had left with plenty of time, even for traffic jams as hub is a stickler for promptness (that was my first lesson as his wife -- you WILL be ready on time - his mother was always at least 45 minutes behind schedule and it just drove him nuts).
Anyway, yeah, if we play another game at Arrowhead, leave even earlier than you think is necessary as there WILL be traffic jams, unless they put more lanes in I-29.
Hey, apparently if Nebraska wins tonight they get a free wok as a parting gift!
I am so excited over that. A little snark, I might add.
When they talk hardware if it's not conference or bowl game hardware, MEH!!!

Game reactions...
1. Nebraska won, barely, but hey a W is still a W whether it's by 1 or 50.
2. Defense mostly played well. I predicted Cincy would score 17...they scored 13 so that's something.
3. I'm a little concerned that, at times, Cincinnati was able to run right at the defense. And their QB has some serious speed.
4. Malcom Hartzog made the play of the game. For Nebraska's Defense, they *FINALLY* made a play to win a game, so that = encouraging.
5. Biggest disappointment? The once again sputtering offense. I get it is game 1, but I expected more.
6. I get Cincy played a lot of 3 safety looks, but we need to push the ball farther downfield. Passes between 10-20 yards were scarce.
7. Happy for the W, but the stuck in the mud style of offense still afflicts this team.
8. Nebraska has no killer instinct. We had Cincy on the ropes and instead of knocking them out, we let them off the ropes, get a breather, and watched as they got back into the game.

Your post violates the 1st Rhule of being a Husker fan today, which is...
We absolutely suck. If we make a play, it's because the other team made a mistake and when our opponents get even a 1st down, all our coaches are terrible and need to be fired.
(I'm only half joking here.)
