HB Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 I recall a bad storm at the time of the Oklahoma game when Waymon Tisdale was a freshman, in the 80s. Back then we packed 'em in for Big 8 games. This crowd was much smaller due to the storm, but the PA announced that everyone could move down. Those that were there were fired up, and it was a great environment. Great game also. We won, despite a great night by Tisdale. I couldn't believe how good he was as a true freshman. Sent a couple of Hoppen's shots into orbit. One of the most fun times I ever had at the Bob. Beating Billy Tubbs was rare but always worthwhile. Today I think that game would be postponed. Quote
PAhusker Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Does anyone remember an NU game being rescheduled because of weather? Years ago I believe a Texas Tech game got cancelled because they couldn't get to Lincoln. I'm sure there must have been others. yea oklahoma state in 07 and oklahoma in 2010 that was played the same day but tipped at like 7 instead of 1:30 or something since they couldnt get in on time with an ice storm Quote
BigTexHusker Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 How's the weather shaping up there? Does it look like the game was moved for no reason, or is it looking pretty bad? Quote
atskooc Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 How's the weather shaping up there? Does it look like the game was moved for no reason, or is it looking pretty bad? I think the projection for Lincoln is 8-12" tomorrow. Quote
Nighthawk Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 I will be going to the game with a heavy heart. Was going to be taking my girlfriend to the game. She passed away Monday night. My go big red yell will be a lot closer to a whisper. Quote
Silverbacked1 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Holy Sh*t Nighthawk, Sorry about your lose man. Quote
royalfan Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Son of a gun. Very sorry to hear that Nighthhawk. Hopefully it was a peaceful passing. Best wishes getting through that. Quote
BigTexHusker Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Oh my goodness. I'm praying for your situation. Condolences Quote
Nighthawk Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Thanks guys. I'm having a tough time dealing. I've had such a strong outpouring of positive energy from friends and family. That is helping me cope. trickey 1 Quote

That is helping me cope. That's totally understandable. It'll take some time to find a new normal and it'll be tough for awhile. Lean on your friends. That's what friends are for. Hang in there. Those of us who have dealt with loss feel your pain. Best regards, Norm Quote
Nighthawk Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 Hey everyone cheer hard for me. I'm going to be traveling to Iowa tomorrow to say goodbye to my beautiful Kristin. :'( Was originally going to game but her family decided to hold the services Saturday. As much as I love my huskers. My love for her was infinite. Quote
hhcdave Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 I am really, really, really sorry to hear this. I can't imagine what you are going through. I don't know how I would get through it and I'm sure you feel the same way right now. But you will, somehow, someway, and someday, maybe this will make sense. God Bless you, sending my thoughts and strength your way, too. Let me and any of us know if we can help in any way. Dave Quote
Silverbacked1 Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 Will add both you and her in my prayers tonight. Really sorry for your lose man. Quote
hskr4life Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 Anyone have a Big 10 Tournie bracket generator like we did in the Big 12.... There is a chance looking at the standings that we could play Iowa first round. We win this weekend and we jump Northwestern into 10th Quote
hskr4life Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 As an add on if we would get into that 10th place spot our side of the bracket would look like this as of today. Nebraska Iowa Winner plays Michigan State Northwestern Illinois Winner plays Wisconsin Now that would be something where 2 games could be winnable. Hey I like that bracket, but it probably wont happen Quote
