Funny thing was at the time, Nebraska was playing Kansas State. I believe it was the game in Manhattan when the weather really deteriorated near the end of the game (2000 maybe?). Does anyone else remember this? My friends and I couldn't believe he said it, I still remember it like it was yesterday (although the other details are sketchy) because it was so odd that this official would not know the names of the teams in the game he was calling.

I vaguely remember this, only because I was equally baffled by it.  I 
don't think he ever corrected himself either.
