[Husker] Some Raiders players still hate BC

[Andy Knipp]

Though I find it ironic that Kevin Cochrane led defenses had their way with
both Super Bowl QBs (Flacco at Pitt and Kaperneck at Nevada). That being
said they were both pretty young.

Sort of interesting, maybe more from the standpoint of little insights into
the sad life that underpins a lot of NFL "life style". The amount of money
in play makes for a lot of delusion I think - both for those in the sport
and the fans.

I used to follow pro football just as closely as college but the desire has
left me. 

It will be interesting to see how the evolution of college ball goes with
the advent of mega contracts and 24/7 "in depth" coverage such as the
Longhorn network. Life in the fishbowl isn't fit for most I would bet.
