Thanks for the tag. I wouldn't have known about this at all if you hadn't talked about it. The only way to get college games over here is to have one of those shady black boxes and then be the only person in the bar that is actually interested in it. Combine this with the fact that most of the games are on in the middle of the night and well, I don't end up seeing any of them.
The result isn't surprising but yeah, pretty heartbreaking to go up 21-9, totally control 3 quarters and then completely fall apart in the 4th. In front of a home crowd too.
I suppose completely missing a 3-9 season has been good for my mental health

Yes, it has been a really depressing season for them. I was honestly so excited for them in that game. It was looking so good. Totally heartbreaking!
It would have been a great ending to an otherwise horrible season. It was many years ago that I last checked but someone was telling me that despite their rather lackluster performance in the past decade the season tickets for the Huskers are still a 10 year waiting list or something like that. I'm sure Covid affected that but if the Big Red fans are still turning up en masse, that would make me happy that they aren't just fair-weather fans.
Does Tom Osbourne have any offspring we don't know about?
Haha, I guess I don't know... The facility looks really beautiful, so I guess maybe it is the experience of going to watch them lose that is worth the money more than the actual game. I don't know. I will be interested to see if they stick with Smothers and how he grows over the next couple of years if they do. It could be really good for them.
