[Husker] Be sure to wear, um, BLACK

[Rod Wellman]

I decided long ago that I would buy the scariest Blackshirts attire I could find to wear at the game. I want impact on TV. Whether I wear red or black, my voice WILL have impact on the game.  

Red for Thursday and Friday while in Madison.  Black on gameday.

Besides, only by having a banner day by the Blackshirts are we going to win that game.
