[Husker] Weather person?

[Tommy Thompson]

Worst game I went to was the Auburn game in 1981.  Cold, wet, and the Tigers 
put on a performance...keeping what should have been a blowout very close. 
Huskers won 17-3.  Can't remember who the running back was for Auburn that 
year, but he was good.  I don't think it was Bo Jackson...I think that was 
before him.  Maybe someone else on the list can remember that game.
