[NU Sports] Nebraska story

[Dennis W. Brandt]

Just heard a good one on C-SPAN by author Jim Clifton.  He's from Nebraska.  Many years ago when the Nebraska-Oklahoma game was the biggest encounter of the year, a sportscaster interviewed a Nebraska running back, one Clifton refused to name (for reasons you will see shortly).  The kid is holding his helmet, all white except for the big, red "N."  The sportscaster asks him, "We all know that "N" stands for Nebraska, but what else does it mean to you?"  The kid thought for a few seconds, searching for the right answer, and finally said, "Knowledge!"
