Nebraska vs San Jose State Pay Per View - You Buying?

It's a given that I'll be watching the SJSU game Saturday, plopping down another $29.95 to Fox. It's looking like the pay per view ordering process is about the same as it was last week, except maybe the Dish Network and DirecTV channels have changed a little.

I talked my sister who lives in Lincoln last night and she said that there were tons of people in line at the cable store to buy the game. You have to stand in line? What friggin' century is the cable outfit living in?

Are you buying this one? Are you like me and you have to watch because of a Husker dependency problem? Or was your experience not worth the effort this week? Or do you think it's just too much of a stinker?

Hi, My Name is Jon. I'm A Huskeraholic.

Just like last week, we'll be here with a Game Day thread. I won't have nearly as many beers in me by the time rolls around (at 11:30 am I can pretty much guarantee it will be zero), and I'd love to have the company.

Yes - I am a husker-holic

My name is Becky and I am afraid it is true… I am a Husker-holic. I live in Idaho, so I have to pay the Pay-Per-View (extortion) price to see every game! It is a sickness, I can not control myself… And the worst part, I do not want to be saved. LOL

Yes...

I will be watching just dont know where yet. I did not get to see any of the first game (hilights included) and I am supposed to attend another wedding this weekend but I dont think so. Pick one of the nine months the Huskers aren’t playing and I am there but two weekends in a row???? No way.

If I get it at home you will have me here. If not and I go to the bar you wont. Have to decide by noon tomorrow.

SJS Game

I’m buying but I’m in Hilton Head. Still worth watching to see if the improvement continues. As long as the hurricane doesn’t hit I should get it.

No PPV 4 me

One thing that Pederson and Callahan did for me over the past few years was teach me that there are other things to do on Saturday afternoons.
Our new radio guy is doing a great job, I get my stuff done and still get my Husker fix.

No PPV

Like last week, I’ll listen on the radio and be entertained by Jon trying to type while drunk. If you get the chance, come by and watch…. hehehe

Yeah that is fun...

I have been doing it for the last couple of years. It gets funnier as the game goes on. Its real good if you get the game a couple of seconds ahead of him and you type in something about a play he is still watching.

man

you guys are cold. cold. cold.

No drinking beer tomorrow, though.

Glad you enjoy me tearing my heart out sometimes, though.

Not buying directly, but watching.

We now seem to have 2 watch sites in SW Missouri. I’ll be at one of them.

GBR!
