You must be a terrible fan then. You must also be a jaded old man or just a fair weather "cultural fan". Shame on you! Why are you even on this board then?
Who's excited for the bowl game?
- Thread starter SilentCommit
- Start date
I'm excited for Ryker Fyfe and some of the other players that will have a chance to play.
Actually it is the one thing I am excited about with this game. I really hope it is not a beat down because I want to see how Fyfe plays and how some of the younger guys play. I also want Maurice to end strong. That dude was a warrior all year. An unsung hero.
I wouldnt say you arent a true fan. Just seems a little fair weatherish to me. Seems you were only excited for the big games you thought they would win or had a better vhance to win.
Hel ya I am excited as any bowl game win can give you momentum going into next season. Not only does it gove you that, it gives your fans a reason to be excited for spring ball.
Go big red
A fair weather fan? How dare you sir! Lol. I will have you know I stayed to the very end of our 2007 game against Okie State when half the fans left at the half. Of course, that may also have been caused by the fact that I was there with a cousin of mine who kept buying me one Runza after another. I love Runzas....
Hell yeah. Me too.
I want Fyfe to have a hell of a game. 4TDs, 1 INT or less, 350 yards, 60%+ along with a big game for Ozigbo and Wilbon each getting a TD or two.
I am excited to see some of the other players too, like Reed in for Gerry for instance, along with the receivers having someone distribute the ball around again.
The question wasn't directed at me, but I actually feel that way about basketball.
The games don't matter much at all until March Madness and games that count to win your conference to get in if that's the only way in for your team.
30 games vs 12 games. 12 games have more importance. Each game matters.
Make the playoff 8 or 16 teams, and then no one cares if you lose a game or three, as long as you finish in the top 8 or 16 to make the playoff. Severely diminishes the importance of winning all games.
What you "non-excited" Husker fans need is a good old Husker win. Let's be honest, the game itself isn't what doesn't excite you. It's the pain we feel after we get beat badly that is unappealing. Hey, no one loves that. But that's part of it sometimes. But on the flip side, not much better than a good Husker win.
Looking forward to new looks next week on offense & I really think Banker dials up some nice blitz packages next week and kind of throws caution to the wind. GBR

I'll watch the game, and I'm somewhat excited about it. Whether anyone else watches is their business, not mine. I don't feel the need to lecture them about their lack of enthusiasm, even if it might solidify my JohnnySuperFan bona fides.
You said, "Perhaps someone can help me explain why..." I suggested you might be jaded with life, but countered that if that were not the case, then only you can say why you aren't excited about the game. Fair enough? I didn't say anything about not being a true fan if you aren't excited bout the game.
I wish cellphones had video back then at the Penn St game so I could have videoed all the people flipping me off and swearing at me before the game. No one believes me when I tell them how bad it was.
Fair enough. And yeah... that PSU game was amazing. Never been treated so poorly. Had my 14 year old daughter with me. She was wearing an Eric Crouch jersey. A man in his 40's or 50's walked right up to her and threw his Coke all over her jersey. I had to be restrained by my friends and my daughter or else I probably would have been arrested for murder. Lol
Exactly eight would be disasterous to the best refular season in all of sports.
I am excited for it, I am excited for all the Husker games. I am not always excited by the final result but it is always a good time to hang out with friends, catch up and watch the Huskers play.
