I agree with others that the video of Hawkins is pretty tame.  In
essense, it says there's no place I'd rather be (which is what you
want a coach to say), whether or not it is true.  What else can he
say during this year?  It really says more about CU's frustration
over the years than anything else.  Reflecting on that frustration
is a good opportunity to talk about favorite Husker wins over CU.

NU has had some pretty big games against CU.  For kicks, I list
here the games since 1962 sorted by margin of victory (or defeat).
Of all the games, my favorite was 1992, when the press was comparing
the size of #8 CU's line to that of teams the NFL.  Just about
everything that could go wrong for CU did (NU recovered a kickoff
in the endzone for one TD) and NU won 52-7 in front of a homecoming
crowd that very much enjoyed the game.  (These games were a long
time ago, so I hope I've not combined memories of a couple of big
Husker wins.  Was it the 1992 game that NU recovered the kickoff
for a TD in a rout?)
