When I wake on Husker football Saturday at home I plant one of my two Cornhuskers flags into the front porch flag pole holder depending on if it is a home or away game, usually flip on ESPN Game Day to see what the talking heads say and start my busy day of following College Football.
This season I have not changed that routine but that excited anxiousness that crawled into me the night before and daytime hours before the kickoff of a Cornhusker football game has changed slightly over the past decade. I know why. My emotions now shifted often to nervousness before games because I more than likely will be cheering but watching more impending mediocrity showing up again and again on the field of play whether at home or away.
