I guess we're no better than them then if we can't rise above the pettiness that makes for bad fans.
I went to Nebraska at Penn State in 2003 (I think) and their fans were the worst I've even seen. By a huge margin. My Mom was in tears and honestly I was one more insult from committing a murder. Since then, I have absolutely hated PSU. If you nuked Happy Valley, I'd laugh.
So I agree with Chris on this one, I don't want Husker fans to ever be seen in that same light.
I was there too, what a bunch of morons
I think you've hit the crux of the issue 99. It reminds of the issue parents have with their children's friends. They always look at who they hang out with, because for better or worse, it will influence how their own children behave.
Make that the three of us, guys. (FYI, it was 2002) I suspect that night was an outlier but --- My God, the students (or student-age hoodlums) were out in force that night. Every Husker fan leaving the stadium got harassed -- I heard even the Chancellor's delegation got verbally assaulted. I never served but it was as close to a war zone as I ever want to be.
Over the course of my Husker fandom, I'd rank CU, Miami, Mizzou, and Wiscy fans in my all-time Worst Four, but the chaos that night outside of Beaver Stadium gives Penn State fans a dishonorable mention.
It's never a category I ever want to see anyone list Nebraska fans in. Keep it LOUD but keep it classy, Big Red.
Watched this whole video and it this was nothing but spin. Instead of crediting Nebraska for dominating on both sides of the lines they simply focused on how bad the Colorado lines were. In fact they did not have one complimentary thing to say about Nebraska or Rhule, their entire focus was on Colorado. They were making excuses for Deion not having the "dogs to hunt" because he is only in year 2, ummm Rhule was hired the same time as Deion but he has Nebraska trending in the opposite direction. Some people will ride the Deion hype train all the way off the cliff, good riddance!
Also, there will be a backlash as teams lose the week following us. No credit will go to Nebraska for the beating that was so physical they feel it the next week. The pundits will say our opponents are overrated.
Ol' booger putting guys on blast
Chase gave Raiola his props during the game as well
It's been my experience that most nice people are nice because they expect to be treated nice back. When they are treated badly in return, they can be very unpleasant. You just don't want to piss off a nice person.
Yup, I'm nice as pie until you piss me off. If you continue to piss me off, you will find out just what lengths I will go to, all legally. Like my neighbor who decided she didn't need to tether her 100 pound greyhound mix (aggressive as hell BTW). I gave her umpteen chances and the final straw was when twice it was let out of the yard as I was walking by with one of our dogs. Animal Control lit a fire under her backside. We get along wonderfully now and I honestly consider her a friend. BTW, I think the crux of the problem was that her boyfriend at the time was a real tool. She kicked him out and her behavior changed almost instantly. Go Figure!
One thing I will say about sCUm is they brought the wood with their defense - over the line a few times but overall the played hard. It seemed as though sCUm's skill players tried - but the oline getting owned just made any consistency on offense impossible. I don't think the coaching is worth a turkey on offense either but that many new guys - tough ask. Rhule cleaned house in Lincoln too but he kept around most of the players that could help - look how many seniors we have that are major contributors vs sCUm.
I think something that is being overlooked is the fact that Neyor only 4 catches for 31 yards and Banks had 2 catches for 2 yards. If you would have been told that's all those two were going to get this game I think we all would have been pretty nervous about our chances.

I put the Philadelphia Eagles fans in that same category. They take pride in being A-holes.
I watched it as well, and I didn’t get the same impressions as you. It was two pros who were friends of Deion talking about CU. I just wanted to hear them crap on CU and the coaching staff, which they did plenty of. That they didn’t spend time praising NU makes perfect sense.
