The crowd must get better

[Norm Peterson]

That "Husker Power" chant during opponent introductions needs to be robust. It was pretty good for Michigan and not bad for Iowa.  It's been somewhat lethargic for other games.  That's a problem because that chant seems to set the tone for the game.  My observation, right or wrong, has been that a strong "Husker Power" chant is generally accompanied by a fairly noisy crowd and, conversely, a lethargic crowd during opponent intros stays pretty lethargic.  Some of that might have to do with the opponent but not always.  

 

It's a tradition we have to stick to and the people CWG is talking about who go to all the games and are rarely satisfied with the crowd noise need to keep that thing going strong for every game, because the more we do it, the more people around us will acclimate to it and join in.
