I don't feel personally embarassed one iota. I refuse to allow
the Huskers' success or failure to rule my life. It's a form
of entertainment, and some days I am more entertained than others.
When they win, I cheer with other Husker fans.
When they lose, I commiserate with other Husker fans.
On balance, I got to cheer a lot more than I had to commiserate
this season.
Character shows in how people react to unexpected or undesirable
events. The bowl game will be a chance for this team, and their
coaches (and, yes, even their fans), to demonstrate the strength of
their character.
So, yes, I will be interested in their bowl game and I will cheer
for them in that game, regardless of when and where it is or who
they play.
But I have this sinking feeling that Northwestern and Nebraska will
be playing games at roughly the same time on January 1st, making it
harder for me to follow both of my teams in their bowl games.
