I'm sure it will be enough to get fans to attend but I will not attend just for that.

Is there a date announced?

This sounds lame AF but it also sounds like a (really bad) excuse to go to lincoln and get drunk

 

[BTF69]

Okay, the more I think about this more more stupid it is...

So the idea now is for fans of Husker football to go to Lincoln to watch volleyball and soccer? What the ****.

This is lame.

Don’t go. It’s not for everyone.

I don't get spreading it out over Memorial Stadium, Hibner, and Devaney. I think that will dilute the crowd too much.

I guess since Husker Volleyball will be playing KU for their "Spring Game" at Devaney, that means not taking the team to a smaller Nebraska town as Cook did for many years? I hope that isn't a permanent change going forward. I think those trips to small town Nebraska paid off in spades for volleyball's popularity.

Back in the 60’s and 70’s Nebraska would have all spring day where they wound have the spring football game at 1:30, baseball game maybe hour later and Track meet following the football game.

This isn’t something the University has never done before because it is..

 

[Vanhusker]

Meh, if anyone in my clan wants to go, I'll do it but I won't be the one pushing people to go/pre buying tickets.

Maybe it'll be great but I've never been an early adopter.

So they had the football game?

Absolutely and a real game. 4 full quarters and no green jerseys..

Usually the 1 and 4 strings against the 2 and 3rd.

Love the Huskers but count me out.

*IMO- could be kind of a cool day for kids. Hopefully they aren't trying to charge $5 for a hotdog at these weird events.

I stand corrected. NU announced that Volleyball will ALSO take it's game on the road this spring and play in Ord. 👍👍
