Everybody, it’s Nebraska week. For the first time in a decade, Nebraska is allowing the Colorado Buffaloes into their “state” to compete on the gridiron. For young fans, recent graduates, this game is a specter of years past and glory faded. It’s a redux of Colorado’s best years and best games. For some more seasoned fans, this game is a nostalgic cannon, shooting the black and gold faithful back to the days of Bill McCartney and Gary Barnett.
One game, however fair or unfair, stands above the rest. On a chilly November afternoon, the No. 1 ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers strutted into Boulder.
