History Lesson

They have history, tradition, and the worst road trip on just about anyone’s schedule. A road trip to Nebraska ranks on my excitement schedule somewhere between getting a physical and getting my wisdom teeth taken out. The most exciting part of the trip though is actually arriving at Memorial Stadium and getting a history lessen on college football. J.J. Bass told me earlier in the season how excited he was about the team’s first road trip, to Toledo. Imagine how pumped the junior college transfer must be heading to Nebraska. Looking at all of the national championship trophies has to make it inspiring for a young team with a new head coach and their entire futures ahead of them. Several of the reporters will be making the trip to Nebraska along with several other fans I’ve talked to. The game won’t be televised so will any of you be making it to the game?
