Nebraska Stands Alone Against UConn Women's Basketball

by Jon Johnston on Feb 19, 2010 2:00 PM CST in Nebraska Husker Basketball

One of the things I love about Husker fans is their sense of eternal optimism.... well.. for the most part, anyway. Nebraska women's basketball stands at 24-0, and ranked #3 in both polls behind undefeated juggernaut UConn and Stanford (whose only loss is to UConn). UConn is an incredible program with a 65-game winning streak while the Huskers are having their greatest season in school history. This fact does not deter Husker fans, however.

(The HT on this one goes to Mike Nolan's Husker email list, where the most knowledgeable Husker fans still hang out. BTW, this one is rather fun, interesting. Do me a favor, and use the Facebook icon below to share on Facebook so it spreads to other Husker fans. Thanks. )

Optimisic.....

but UCONN is an unbeleivable womens team this year. I watched them play a couple of times along with the Huskers. Anything can happen in a one game tourney but the Huskies are better than the Huskers, unfortunately. But, if they meet and don’t bring their A game Nebraska could beat them.

I love this

Oh man…just a great illustration of the loyalty and optimism. I also love how the “no” just happens to be colored red. Maybe a little forshadowing here? The last state standing?
