NU-Colorado night game!!

That was a fun game, Cory Ross out of the backfield catching short passes snd moving the chains. Good times in Boulder, our seats were right where cu went to the locker room, i was able to congratulate them on such a fine effort. I will never forget that look on hawkins face.
2005 was actually Gary Barnett's last season at cu, was fun as hell watching Nebraska kick that can down the road for his last home game.

I don't buy the defense getting gassed argument because it would have had to happen at halftime. Momentum is another thing and hard to get it with an ineffective QB.

CU's biggest loss last year was in the coaching staff. Those guys violated every practice rule last summer and got them prepared for the early games and their lack of depth didn't hurt them as much.
Gassed is probably the wrong word. They had to feel like they had to play a perfect second half after they stopped Colorado on their first 4 drives. 24 plays 50 yards.
Nebraska fumbled on the first drive at the Colorado 31,
then went 3 and out after a defensive stop,
then punted again after a 3 and out.
then missed a FG after a 6 play 14 yard drive
then fumbled deep in their territory after a 3 and out
Colorado went 4 plays and 6 yards for a FG
Nebraska threw a pick deep in their territory
Colorado scored a TD
Nebraska punted after 5 plays.
Colorado drove 50 years for a FG

Defense was outstanding in the first half. Colorado had 136 yards of total offense and a 13-0 lead after what should have been and zero points. Agree momentum was difficult to obtain because the offense continued to give the ball away. If Nebraska gets 3 points on the drive where they fumbled, 3 points on the missed FG, and dont throw a pick inside the 30 yard line with 1:37 to go in the half, The second half is completely different.

Shitty QB play deflates the entire team.

Winning QB play inspires the entire team.

I was roundly mocked by a gaggle of clueless morons for making this extraordinarily obvious and 1,000,000% factual comment during our winning streak last year.
 
If ever this wasn’t a must-win game, well, that’s no longer the case with it being a night game. Place is going to be complete bananas.

It appears you are, too, clueless moron.

If you honestly believe offense, defense and special teams occur in a vacuum you should stop with football and watch real housewives fulltime
 
Maybe Rhule is hosting football for wives/moms again this offseason

@Lincoln100 would probably be good for you to attend
 
Sorry, but Colorado at Nebraska doesn’t belong on that list.
Agreed - it would be on the list if it was only Nebraska and Colorado schedule review. 9 total wins between us last year it doesn’t mean jack on the national level but my word I hope we crush them. Hoping this will the game I go to this year and hope we dominate from start to finish.

people didn't believe me when I said Klatt gaslights Husker fans professionally

perhaps now you're a little closer to recognizing it
 
I think he's right as far as NU concerned. We've all said or felt that that game is a must win and would be pivotal towards the success of our season

Yes! I predict this will be the loudest game ever at Memorial stadium. And I predict we are going to win convincingly.
Would not miss this game for anything. Booked my plane tickets home to God’s country five seconds after this was announced.
I always get my rental car using Costco travel. It cost be 2 extra dollars to upgrade to a Ford Mustang at the Omaha Airport when I am back for the game. I thought it would be nice to have a fun car that weekend. I am staying out in SE Lincoln with friends. They have no desire to go to the game. I will definitely use Uber to go downtown Friday and Saturday nights. Talking to my other friends who are wanting to drive in from out-of-state for the game they are complaining their usual sources for tickets are not committing they will have tickets available for them for the CU game. I think the sellers can get too much money elsewhere for their seats. I bought my ticket with another friend two months ago. I think we can already make money selling the tickets we bought. Hope to fly down the coast later in the season to watch the Huskers play USC.
