[Husker] Things could be worse...

Just an interesting (at least to me!!) statistic that I picked up at
College Basketball News RPIratings.com.  If you thought having to play
Kansas twice this year was a tough row to hoe, in 1909 Nebraska had to
play Kansas 6 times in one year.  We lost two at Kansas, one at home,
and went 1 and 2 at neutral sites.  And no, Allen Fieldhouse wasn't
built until 1955.  We played them 4 times a year from 1908 through
1912, and actually won all 4 in '12.  I'd be willing to bet no one out
there on the list may have been at any of these games, but I could be
wrong.  Sorry, there aren't any box scores or game clips on video for
those games.
