Fwd: RE: [Husker] more data

[Duane Feldman]

Man do I remember that game!  I was so angry and frustrated, that after the third quarter ended, I turned off the game and gave up on the Huskers (then down 19-0).  I went about corn harvesting in just a terrible mood, kicking everything in sight.  I finally turned the game back on  either just as NU was scoring the go-ahead TD, or just afterwards.  I decided I would never again give up on the Huskers even when they were gettnig blown out.  I also remember being very glad of that decision when years later Scott Frost engineered a 60 second 62 yard comeback against Missouri to keep NU the national title hunt in '97.  At that time, I remember reminding myself not to give up because of that Colorado game in the '60's.

Incidently, you mentioned being from Ansley, I was from neighboring Litchfield and we played each other in football and basketball each year (Ansley getting the better more years than not).

Attended a couple of games at Colorado in that time
with the most memorable being a Bob Churchich engineered
comeback from 19-0 to win 21-19.
