Nebby has rematch with UGA WTF?

[NCHawker]

I have to believe both UGA and Nebraska fans are underwelmed with this match up. Surprised the BWW picked Michigan instead of Nebraska. Maybe they didn't have a very good rapport with the Gator Bowl people and just could not work out a deal.

This isn't a Nebraska board Mr. We already beat those chumps. Forget about it

Word is that the Big XII forced the BWW Bowl to pass on Nebraska. That left Nebraska to the Gator Bowl.

I would have laughed had the Gator officials felt the same way and picked Minnesota instead. Another knock to Nebraskas prestige.

UGA will shred Nebraska. Fo realsies, y'all.

If the huskers could cut down on T/Os they'd have a fighting chance in some of these games.

I feel Iowa is somehow to blame for this. Don't you all feel terrible?

Not really, they could have picked Minnesota instead of Nebraska. Since Iowa beat both of them I do not feel Iowa is responsible at all. Had they checked the scoreboard they would have seen Iowa beat Nebraska more soundly than they did Minnesota. Minnesota was the better team, they should be the ones preparing to play Georgia.

Go Big Red...what the fans don't care about their bowl game. Well, think how Georgia must feel. We have to beat them down again? This is the yawner of the year bowl. I can see the Georgia players playing cards on the sidelines during bowl prep.

Eric Olson - @ericolson64Thru week of Gator ticket sales, Nebraska reports 2,759 sold thru ticket office. Neb sold 3,622 total for Cap One Bowl last season

Nebraska and Michigan fans are the same. The new normal is you're just above mediocre. 8-9 wins is what you should expect, 10-11 will be overachieving.

 

[NCHawker]

Nebraska fans just starting to realize that its not 2007 anymore. Sorta sad, their fan base was known for traveling well. This will not endear them to bowls in the future. Especially if the hawks beat 'em last game of the season.

^I think you mean 1997.

I wonder how their ticket sales compare to Iowa's Outback bowl? I know many people who are going to the bowl game that are not getting tickets through the UofI ticket office.
