Nebraska vs Mizzou - To Be Televised On ESPN

by Jon Johnston on Sep 22, 2008 11:25 AM CDT in Nebraska Husker Football

The Missouri game will be televised on ESPN nationally at 8:00 pm central, October 4th.

There you have it, a night game in Lincoln, where the Tigers haven't won since 1978.

Is this an opportunity for Nebraska to stand up against one of the best teams in the nation, or is it another opportunity for Missouri to embarrass us on national television like they did last year?

I have a feeling the answer will be dependent upon where your allegiances lie.

You'd think

obliterating you last year would earn us some respect and some salvation from the “you haven’t done it in a really long time with completely different teams so it’s obviously not going to happen now” card. But no. Sigh.

I think it’ll be a better game than it honestly should be. The Va Tech game should tell us a lot about Nebraska. If they perform well this could be a Big 12 classic.

If they don’t…

Think of it this way. It’ll be a nice chance to see Nebraska’s favorite son Blaine Gabbert in action. Likely scoring on you.

Bones. It's not just a noun it's a verb. Not just a nickname, a movement.

Well......

let’s just say that I hope you keep a sense of humor for the next couple of weeks because I fully plan on banging on Mizzou pretty hard. Nice of y’all to have a bye week before the game.

Respect….? Well, isn’t hate a form of respect? Or we could go back to indifference, but I don’t think either school’s fans is interested in that.

Go Big Red Nebraska!
