A fun one to watch or re-watch: 1988 Okie State

I will have to watch...was at that game. Hart Lee Dykes was amazing.
That was my 2nd year at UNL and that game was amazing! Barry was still great, but it was so awesome to see Ken Clark put up even bigger numbers, especially after all of the Okie St and Sanders hype leading up to the game.
My last Husker season as a single man.
My wife and I watched in our apartment in Colorado. She was relatively new to my obsession, but had seen other games with me. I was alternately loosing it when we'd just blow down the field and score and loosing it when we couldn't do anything to stop Sanders or Dykes.
My favorite comment from her was: "Are they supposed to be scoring this much?" after Oklahoma State scored their third TD of the second quarter.
My answer, of course, was 'NOOOOOO!!!!!!'

This is also a chance to see Mike Gundy back before HE WAS A MAN!!! We know that he was A MAN when he was 40, and we know that his QB wasn't (who I believe was 21 at the time), so I'm curious what the magical age is when a man becomes a Gundy MAN!!!
Ugh. I was a sophomore in college and had to sing at a wedding that day. It was the worst! I think it was only 1 of 2 games I wasn't able to attend over a 5 or 6 years period. Everyone was in their cars listening to the game right up until the wedding started and then everyone ran back out to the cars as soon as they were able to. Bad planning for a wedding but it was kind of a rushed situation. LOL
Well Coach, the only other men that I know of who play college football are the Michigan Men. I don't know that age, but it is a clue. If we can figure out how old a Michigan Man is when he becomes a Michigan Man, we may stumble upon the coming-of-age of the Gundy Man.
I remember that OSU (before OSU meant tOSU) game. Indeed a fun game to watch. I forget if it was Dykes or someone else whom Charlie McBride refused to shake hands with, saying we don't shake hands like that at Nebraska, i.e. with the passing of money. Could have been a different coach, but I remember it being Charlie.

My biggest gripe about the whole NCAA rules enforcement is that their toughest sanctions almost always fall on the players and the coaches that follow the ones who were cheaters. They have no way of punishing the boosters beyond the most obvious--you can no longer be directly associated with the program--and the players who took the money are hardly ever punished. I don't have an answer, but there has to be a better way of doing this.
I thought that they'd get on my nerves quickly, but I actually didn't mind that they were calling the game. They were even pretty good. It might have been different if Okie State was up 42-0.
