Silverbacked1 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Posted March 6, 2014 Looks like a go: 'No-Sit Sunday' at Pinnacle Bank Arena By BRIAN ROSENTHAL / Lincoln Journal Star | Mar 6, 2014, 9:39 AM Nebraska head coach Tim Miles welcomes the crowd to the Huskers first practice of the season held at Pinnacle Bank Arena on Friday, Sept. 27, 2013. (TED KIRK/Lincoln Journal Star) A friend of Nebraska assistant coach Chris Harriman texted Harriman on Thursday morning. A Nebraska fan who lives in St. Louis, the friend was expressing his excitement about coming to Sunday's basketball game at Pinnacle Bank Arena between Nebraska and No. 9 Wisconsin. He referred to it as "No-Sit Sunday." That expression quickly stuck with Harriman, who decided to coin the phrase in anticipation of what many are saying is the biggest home game in Nebraska history. "Why not?" Harriman said. "Let's roll with it. We need that place loud and rocking." So, there you have it. 'No-Sit Sunday' has been declared. Coaches want everyone standing, as much as possible, and making noise in the process. What's at stake? A victory for Nebraska (18-11, 10-7 Big Ten) could clinch the program's first at-large NCAA Tournament berth since 1998. It could also clinch a first-round bye in next week's Big Ten Tournament, where the Huskers could be looking to improve their seeding in the NCAA Tournament, rather than fighting to make the tournament. The game is sold out. Students tickets are going for as much as $50, which is basically the price of a season student ticket. Tickets for the general public are going for nearly $100 on StubHub. And with a 60-degree day forecast, you can imagine the energy in the Railyard all afternoon for the 6:30 p.m. tip-off.

PimpMario Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 I think Jean sits in front of me in the booster section. When me and my wife and father doing the Husker power chant for the first game I $h!t you not, she plugged her ears. Red Rum and Silverbacked1 2 Quote

colhusker Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 I am thinking since I can't be there I will just stand for the game in my living room. When the wife tells me to sit down I will tell her one more comment like that your new delta tau name will be Jean! Red Rum, atskooc, Silverbacked1 and 1 other 4 Quote
Nighthawk Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 Has the U made any announcements on plans for the game outside of the normal Senior Day stuff? Marching Band? Tommy Lee? Tim Miles bobble heads? Quote
