[Husker] Offense? (Payback)

Sun Nov 29 18:11:20 CST 2009

Wow, the Terrence Nunn game, can't believe you guys have already forgotten
that one. :) I said after the Va Tech loss that the '06 Texas loss was
worse. Oh man, if we can avenge that, plus the '96 title game... I don't
know what I would do!
