Halloween under the lights

Admittedly, I read David Copperfield ages ago, but in my humble opinion, Ted Lasso out-Micawbers Micawber.

The wifey and I are on the final two episodes of the new Season 4. :thumbsup: Jason Sudeikis is a great actor but he's an even better writer.
My oldest daughter has been begging my wife and I to watch TL for over a year. I had no interest in anything having to do with soccer, but we finally decided to get Apple TV for a few months to check it out. Glad we did! We just finished Season 1 and really enjoyed it!
 
that 92 beat down of sCUm was my favorite by far. The crowd was fired up. The team was fired up. sCUm walked into a buzzsaw. I was on the ramp going to my seat when sCUm huddled under the stands to go on the field.....and let's just say.....Nebraska fans were letting sCUm know they weren't welcome in Lincoln.\
Sadly, I wasn't in Lincoln for that 92 beatdown. I'm usually big on talking up some old games, but when it comes to fired up crowds, our 24 game against sCUm was one of our all-time loudest. I've never witnessed a visiting team as intimidated by our crowd as the Buffs that year.

I'm hoping fans duplicate that energy Saturday night against the Huskies.

Short version but still the best Halloween night game.
I was at that game. One of the best games ever.
My family and I were living in Virginia at the time. If available in my area, I would've watched it on TV but, if so, I don't remember a thing about it. That makes me suspect that with the way they regionalized TV broadcasts back then, it wasn't available to me at the time.

Since it's Halloween and there's another Halloween Husker game tonight, I sat down at my computer this morning with a cup of coffee and watched Osborne's Huskers vs. McCartney's sCUm team.

A few reactions:
---- Reaction #1, this software version doesn't give us the option for bullets. :confused:
---- One of The Most Dominating 4-Quarters performances I've ever seen by a Husker defensive line. The whole defense was on fire.
---- In this instant replay era, Calvin Jones' long TD run would have been overturned because he let go of the ball before crossing the goal line.
---- Osborne tried a fake FG in the first quarter that was unsuccessful. The trouble with watching it now was that if felt like something Rhule would've done too instead of kicking the damn FG. :) ;)
---- It was cool watching Tommie play as a baby. :)
---- As a cool sign of things yet to come, I noticed that Cory Schlesinger scored on a fullback trap play in wrap-up duty late in the game.

I don't know where in Virginia you lived at the time. I do know my Mom and Dad bith lived in Northern Va and my mom watched the game. I think it was nationally televised. Anyway she enjoyed watching them beat down CU. She was a Misery alum too rooting for the Huskers but that was because I was attending UNL at that time. Lol
