[Husker] Soakers

[Steve Curry]

My wife reminds me regularly that I chose that 1981 Auburn game to bring her
into the Big Red fold.  The expression "drowned rats" comes to mind.  Bo won
his trophy in 1985 and Joe Cribbs & James Brooks came before 1981, so
perhaps it was Lionel James running for the Tigers that day.
