[Husker] Bitter cold Huskers games

[Doug Gerrelts]

I'm not the weather guy, but I was curious how the games mentioned on 
the list compared to the Packer/Giants game since I was in Lambeau for 
that fiasco (0 degrees at start, about 5 below by the time Brett threw 
the interception in OT).

Huskerpedia tells me the date and almanac.com tells me the temps:

Game              date                min/mean/max temp for that date
72 OU-NU - 11/23/1972  -    27 /30.9 /39

76 OU-NU - 11/26/1976  -    32 / 37.4/ 63

97 NU-ISU - 11/15/1997 -     21.9/ 26.6/ 30.9

93 OU-NU - 11/26/2003,  -    1.9 / 11.0/ 24.1

No one mentioned the '82 OU game that I was at.  I remember being very 
cold at that game, probably compounded by the 7up spilled on my feet by 
the vendor.  In fact I was colder at that game that at the Packer game 
last week - those years of learning how to stay warm in deer stands have 
paid off I guess. 

'82 OU-NU - 11/26/1982 - 21.9 / 29.0 / 45.0 


'93 OU/NU gets the nod as the coldest of the games mentioned.
