     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.
