I just couldn’t do it.
When Fox announced that they were pushing Nebraska’s home game against Illinois to Friday night, I had a dilemma. Which game do I skip? The Husker game or the high school game where my son would be performing at? There really wasn’t any hope of the high school game getting moved; the stadium was already in use on Thursday evening and all day Saturday.
I made the choice that was the right one for my family... and skipped my first Husker home game since 1998. (COVID season excepted) Really, I didn’t have a choice; first things first.
