Best singular memory of Nebraska football
- Thread starter The Big Red Lebowski
- Start date
On a personal level: new job in Nebraska; my two grade-school age sons and I visit the stadium in the summer of '83. Everything's open. We walk by the offices of the coaching staff. I held the door open for former coach Devaney. On the field there's Turner Gill throwing passes to Irving Fryar.
On a team level: Corey's two TD's vs Miami.

Fun thread. Too many to mention. One though stands out as it was just damn funny........1995 sitting in the student section against Arizona St; after the team got to 63 points in the first half, a student just a few rows above yelled that he wanted to play: the exact quote was him yelling: "I played football at Fremont Bergan!"
Miss those days.

Actually put a pic of Spurrier doing one of his 'hand swiping over his clenched face' in a 5X7 and put it on my desk at work after that game..lol. Good times.

Back around 1998 or so I started "talking" to a girl I met who played volleyball for Florida, and her roommate was Jesse Palmer (apparently co-ed roommates was a thing). Anyway I remember he broke his leg or something and was in their room when we were chatting, and she told him I was a Nebraska fan and he started running his mouth about how great the Gators were. I told her tell him this: "96. Fiesta. Bowl." His response: "F*** you"
Just tore em loose from their shoes!
I believe it was 2011 when Nebraska and Penn State pregame when Ron Brown led both teams in prayer!! Never been prouder to be a husker fan!
I respected Spurrier after that game. Made no excuses and just said we got whooped!
I grew up listening to Lyle Bremser but to listen to that call makes me kind of laugh .. "he's to the 30, 35, he's to the 40, 45, 50, he's to the 45, the 40, 35, 30 ... "
This is where Bo was authentic and absolutely perfect for the moment.
Sitting in the stands with family watching Nebraska take down the 'canes! Amazing moment.
There are a lot of great memories for me...but every time I think of Warren Sapp on the sideline sucking oxy it makes me smile. 
That game and the game we played in ASU’s stadium prior to the first game of the 1996 season set us up for that 19-0 shutout. Hard to think you weren’t going to stroll into that stadium and deliver another beat-down. We ran into a buzzsaw.
Wait, you and Jesse “buzz lightyear” Palmer are Eskimo brothers?Back around 1998 or so I started "talking" to a girl I met who played volleyball for Florida, and her roommate was Jesse Palmer (apparently co-ed roommates was a thing).

I have lived 87 years, have both college and post graduate degrees, taught English composition at an Ivy League school, practiced law for 60 years and must confess I don't understand bulletin board language.
What the hell does "you and "Buzz lightyear" Palmer are Eskimo brothers" mean in the English language?
