I attended my first Florida State game last night and wanted to share some observations.

I, like all Huskers, have a long history with Florida State and respected Bobby Bowden so much. Tom Osborne and Bobby Bowden had a great relationship for being fierce competitors. So many great battles we had through the 80s and 90s. They were also my first Husker game in October of 1980.

Granted it was North Alabama (Ryan Held HC last year) and this game was sandwiched in between Miami and Florida games for FSU, but the game atmosphere, tailgating, vibe on campus cannot hold a candle to Lincoln! I just wasn’t sure what to expect! The Seminole fans were very cool and respectful of Nebraska as the four in my party wore their Husker gear!

I was sitting there thinking how much I’m going to enjoy watching them in the college football playoff assuming they win out and then Jordan Travis, their star quarterback, suffered a gruesome injury! And I am sure that derailed their potential!

I’m not sure if the north Alabama kid had intentions of hurting him, I don’t think so, but these hip tackles sure are dangerous in a perilous sport!

Jameis Winston was inducted into the Florida State ring of fame and number retired last night so that was pretty cool. Jordan Travis is so well liked and so respected that Winston wore Travis’s jersey the whole evening. When Jordan was injured, there was so much emotion in the crowd and the other players. It was easy to see how respected he was.

A really tough loss for Florida State and not that I am a big fan or anything, but I was going to root for them until Nebraska returns to being relevant! It wasn’t long ago they sucked like us!!

The Seminole on the horse at the beginning with the flaming spear is pretty cool and the tomahawk chop is pretty bad ass!

Just wanted to share some thoughts from my first visit to Doak Campbell Stadium and Jordan Travis injury!

Jordan Travis injury insight

N the third furthest, behind only USC, and UCLA….

SoCAL teams travel schedule looks brutal.

It’s amateur hour….. junior high level quality.

This loss is on Rhule

I am ignorant to the backstory besides knowing Chubba needs groin surgery. But was his injury so bad that he couldn’t start all year? It seem ridiculous that Sims or HH would start over him

"People last week wanted us to run the ball and kick a FG", giggle giggle.

Fvck you, Matt. Your lack of in-game magement has cost Nebraska an 8-win season to date with black Friday deciding the west.

Lick your chops some more. 🤬

Garbage.

Time for another edition of the Conversations with Clouse live chat from 7-8am. Let's see those questions!


Fire away!

There’s nothing we can do about it now.

But players, former players, fans, coaches, admin, the very essence of Nebraska football itself expects to lose.

And we find ways to manifest that into reality

Played with fire

Best all year

Sorry his HC didn’t let him try to win the game

Volleyball team can win the conference at 2 today vs Iowa. On the Big Ten Plus.

Are we really begging to be Iowa?

That is all I'm hearing.

Run run run the football. Punt. Never throw the football unless necessary while demanding a lights out defense and bend but don't break play.

Another shitty game to lose, like many others the past several years if not decades.

But to outwardly root to be a pedestrian football team, I'm sorry, I can never root for that crap.

His first season at Temple and Baylor were bad, but they showed significant improvement in year 2 and year 3. I believe the same will hold true here as well.

OK, so we went to OT and the offense couldn't score and threw a pick. Everybody bitching about not going for the win at the end. Nobody thinks that maybe the defense could have stopped the QB run they killed us with all gane in overtime? Or stopped a 4 yard run they won the game on?

as a possible replacement. He is our bright spot not only for performance but for recruiting defensive players.

Had it last night and still lost. Please let us know what the next excuse is to keep us current

This ability in practice, how can it take 10 games for him to get a real shot from these coaches? I know he’s had an injury but still.

Looked like he may have taken a pretty bad injury. Any update on him?

Over under not out yet. Guessing it will be under 30. Edit. OU 27.5 lol. So how much are we betting Iowa money line to somehow offset the disappointment of not going to a bowl game?

The current score is the Huskers are up 2-0. To get live updates, you just have to go to huskers.com, women’s soccer schedule for this game, hit live stats. FYI

Can anyone explain why we didn't use a fullback when we went for it on 4th and 1 in the second quarter?
