I agree totally. These guys, and others, get on other schools as well.
We just notice it a lot more when it is the Huskers. I read the comments
Herbstreit made and to be honest I was a little surprised. I really don't
remember him over the years having an anti NU bias. As a matter of fact I
have always thought Herbstreit, Fowler, and Corso have been rather
complementary or if they didn't compliment it was just more of an observance
and not a bias. More to the point, most announcers really couldn't care
less who wins, who is ahead in the polls, who they compliment, and etc.
They are interested in ratings.

I never learned anything when I was the one doing the talking.
