Nebraska shitting the bed when it matters, and refusing to play a whole game of football. Story of this team my whole life.

Well okay but would you rather be a Nebraska fan born in like 2000 and have missed out on the glory days or be a fan born in like the 80’s and have…whatever this program has become after experiencing the highs

Given that I am literally the former, I'd think I'd rather be the latter. At least I would have first hand memories of Nebraska being good.

As a member of the latter, it doesn't really help anymore, sadly.

I'm considering watching the highlights the rest of the season. Hockey's started back up, and I only have so much free time. I'm trying to remember the most feeling I've ever felt for this team, and I think it was the 2016 Fresno State game.

I expect this team to lose games like this, and they rarely prove me wrong. Apathy helps.

Hell, you only gotta watch the last 2 minutes of the game. The highlights don't mean shit other than that.
