> Believe me, I am enjoying getting caught up in the upset over Nebraska.  By the way, in yesterday's NY POST, Lenn Robbins, their College FB (and Hoops) Beat Writer, "ranked" NU No. 25 in his Top Ten list.  Every week he picks as No. 25 a team which upset a top-ranked team.  I gave a happy fist-pump when I saw our "ranking".:-)  I actually went looking for it, hoping we would be "selected".

Back in the days when Brent was doing the NFL pre-game show, he usually
reserved 5th place in his personal Top 10 poll for a team that pulled off
a big upset.  

I had a friend from Tennessee call me yesterday to congratulate me on
Northwestern's great victory and console me on Nebraska's crushing defeat.

I told him:  I may wear red, but I bleed purple!

Anyway, I plan to use the purple and red shirt that my wife made again,
possibly even on days when Nebraska and Northwestern aren't playing each
other.

It looks like this week's games and next week's games for NU and UNL
will all be in the 11AM time slot, which makes watching them both 
difficult.  But at least the final week's games aren't on the same day.

:sigh:
