    What's good witcha Rick. Man, I was a Cornhusker NUT in '83. I grew up in the Bronx, New York and I know for sure, me and my homeboy's Llewellyn and Charles were the ONLY Cornhusker Fanatics in the entire City of New York. Well to the extent of how we carried it. I had my own mesh Cornhusker waistline jersey (#1) made and I had a white satin, with red lines around the waist band, wrist and neckline with NEBRASKA on the in an arch. I even had the white turf Nikes with the red swoosh like yall wore on game day. Yeah, yall were my heart. I really believe both you guys and Miami created that swagger of football that is still in style in today's football. You can throw Oklahoma in there as well. It was just something about the way yall carried yourselves on the field. Glad to know you have a page up and I definitely sub'd. Be well #7!

      Fryer for sure. Rozier did sprain his ankle. U can see it in `a different angle than the original broadcast . But fryer dropped that ball on purpose. The evidence is hardly debatable. Added to what we now know about IF.

      I'd like to personally thank them then for that. Not to mention all of the other future Cornhuskers who dropped balls, missed blocks, got sacked, creamed etc. when they played Miami in future bowl games. Thanks, Cornhuskers! We couldn't have done it without you!! ;)
