[Husker] Thoughts on Today

[ketel97 at aol.com]

Oh come on Bob, lighten up. The fans were thrilled to see BO and Company after a 4 year blah. Let us have fun.? I sat here in Arizona and listend to the whole game and loved the comments of the announcers, the previous players, the coaches and had a wonderful afternoon and then when it was over I listened to the Baseball game.

    This Spring Game thing has really blown into something big.  
I guess it is a good thing for those that enjoy it.  The one thing I 
noticed is it almost seems like the fans and media are treating it 
like a regular game against another school.  The spring game 
typically is not even close to that.  First of all it is NOT a game.  
It is a scrimmage in practice.  Unlesss it is different this year 
uaually there are an amount of players that end up playing for 
each team.  B. Pelini/Watson/C. Pelini are not going to empty 
their play books.  The reason is obvious.  Out of the 80,000 or 
so fans it would be pretty easy for a couple of hundred of them 
to be scouts from other teams.


     As far as talent evaluation I have never put too much 
emphasis on the spring game.  Just because a player has a great 
spring game doesn't translate into a great fall campaign nor does 
it necessarily go vice versa.  


    It seems it is a social event more than anything.  It is an 
excuse for Husker fans to get together and party around a 
"football game".  Nothing wrong with that.  To be honest I am 
much more interested in the NU-KU baseball game this 
afternoon than I am the spring game.
