Among others, I vividly remember sitting through the bitter cold 1976 and 1993 Nebraska-Oklahoma games in Lincoln and was curious how cold it actually got during those contests.? If someone could direct me where to find this information, I would greatly appreciate it.? Thanks.

Tom Osborne's final home game as head coach ('97 vs. Iowa State) has to 
be among the coldest.  I remember wearing about 5 layers of clothes 
along with some of those glove and shoe warmers.  IIRC, it was a 63-0 
game at *halftime*.  Not many people stuck around for the 2nd half.  I 
did, however.

Luckily, that's the only home game I've ever been to that was absolutely 
bone-chilling.  Thanks Global Warming! :)
