I lost excitement for this game when Nebraska laid an egg @ Illinois.

Same issues (turnovers, penalties, lack of discipline) that have plagued the Huskers for years.

I'd rather Nebraska lost to MAC Buffalo in trap game than lose to Illinois (a division opponent) in the opener.

My lack of excitement is fairy common around here. I actually don't know a soul that thinks Nebraska can win, it's just more about can they cover the spread.

Even if OU plays their worst game in 10 years, these Huskers will play down to it and lose. It's what they do.

I vote to cancel this game. It will be like watching a 60 year old former rock star trying to sing his old hits, but not quite being able to hit those high notes. Wearing old concert clothes that now show arm flab that somehow becomes hypnotizing as it sadly sways rhythmically to the beat. I want to remember this rivalry as it should be, not in the sad parody that will transpire this weekend

All I’ve got to say is Oklahoma had better feed some children and homeless or they’re bastards.
 
I want to see OU get a statement win but I don't want to see an ass kicking. I like Nebraska too much for that to happen. How about:

Halftime OU 21 NU 7
Final OU 45 NU 21
 
for those talking about nebraska trying to get out of this game...

remember...1996

OU put up no fight to bow down to Tejas to end our rivalry.

Not nice to talk about the Sooners like that.
 


Growing up in the 1980s, a Nebraska kid recognized two mortal enemies: Russia and Oklahoma, and not necessarily in that order.

Big Eight football wasn’t a “Cold War” confined to Hollywood movies and tropic jungles. The Soviets were half a world away. An abstract foe you observed only on the news — or “Rocky IV.” The Sooners, by contrast, were real. They showed up in our backyard every two years and, more often, our nightmares.

Every Nebraska kid understood that the Big Eight season finale might be the best day of the fall, or the worst. Nothing in between.

“But, yeah, I still don’t like the colors of Oklahoma. Won’t wear anything close to it. Still don’t know what the hell a Boomer Sooner is. When that carriage rolled over, I didn’t have any empathy for them.
