I'd take this a step further and say that you're right, Steve, that is
about 95% of football news stories.
From the other perspective - those are the stories people seem to
want. I think this especially applies to Nebraska fans.
I was talking to someone about the next year's version of "A Sea of
Red" last week, and during the conversation the analogy I used was this:
People want to walk into the store and buy something like a cereal box
that says "Husker football" on it. And when they look at the
ingredients, that's all they want to see - Ingredients: Nebraska
football.
Start adding anything else in there, and you're toeing the line
between acceptance and rejection. Or sales and no sales. . That's the
challenge from this side of the fence.
