THE 2024 HUSKERS - Wary Optimism vs Red Flags: Opt for a Belief in Miracles

And, no, it’s not Coach Taylor from Friday Night Lights again. But don’t you dare tempt me.

Don’t worry, this isn’t going to be a list of the 10 Husker games since 2014 which made me want to chug a fifth of Sailor Jerry like Bluto when the movers were cleaning out the Delta house. Or dare Mike Tyson to punch me in the face like Steve-O. Or juggle some cactus…never mind, you get the picture.

But there was one which was different.

That miserable, goddamned Dublin Northwestern game. To me, it hit worse than the 62-36 2001 Nebraska-Colorado drubbing, though I couldn’t describe exactly why.
