I can't speak for others but coming out every year by losing or sucking takes the wind out of the sails for me. Plus no tailgating eliminates a lot of the cultural excitement.
Even the rabid Husker fans are pretty subdued about now playing in empty stadiums. The university said that the lots will all be closed and there are still limitations in the Lincoln bars. One of our greatest assets is the fans at Jack Trice or Hilton...just need to be loud and supportive whatever the number allowed in.

Who knows who shows up today...just another weird 2020 day.

any news on Kolar and Downing are good to go or still a day to day gametime decision type of thing?

Defense usually shows up for 56 minutes a game. It's always just that 4 minutes or less prior to half when they head to the locker room early.
That is actually pretty spot on....for Ksu, it's usually 45 secs before half, lol.

Hope our defense can create today in terms of pressure and maybe some.turnovers. I feel we will still be pretty vanilla on offense, so hopefully Breece gets in rhythm and Kolar plays.

Hope Purdy ignores coaches' play calling and throws the ball DOWN the field. Milton needs to be involve on every pass play.

Totally agree with your first sentence. And I agree Milton needs to be WAY more involved today, but not on every pass play.... that's a little much!

There's gotta be an empty parking lot or something you could go tailgate in to get that old feeling back, no?

Sure it's an away game and your friends might hold an intervention, but Cyclones! :)

I won't be able to watch but I'd like to see someone like Shaw get going today. Maybe some timing has started to unfold there.

If they play like they did against Louisiana, 24-3 TCU. If they play like a normal Campbell team, 27-24 ISU.
