"PRACTICE"



"Like totally omg- just got my spring game tickets"



I swear if one more person asks me if I want to drive a total of 5 hours with them to go watch a practice............





Just a drive by...........

 

[Brasky]

I can walk to the stadium. So yeah, I'm going.

 

[jedburks]

I agree Kstatehater.

I wouldn't go to the glorified practice if I lived in the stadium.

 

[iruletheskool]

shit, I'd watch every practice if i could.

 

[HawkeyeHater]

If I lived in lancaster county I would probably go tailgate.............


No way in hell am I coming down from Sioux City to go watch a scrimmage...


I did once- and the tail-"getting" was the only interesting part of the day....

Big recruiting day, I'm going in order to do my part there.

WOW..hope that people aren't seriously dogging the spring game. The fact that our spring "scrimmage" is about the only one in the country to put 70,000 people in the stands every year is a huge testament to our fan base and loyalty to our team, which is very important to our recruiting. I will go...if it was televised I would watch...just like the majority of the husker fan base.

The spring game is a significant event, even though it may not be appealing to some fans.

In 2006 Ohio St had the highest reported attendance for their glorified practice at 63,000. Nebraska was 2nd at 57,000.

In 2007 Alabama had over 92,000 for 1st. Ohio St and Penn St were both over 70,000 for 2nd and 3rd place. Nebraska was in 4th with just over 54,000.

In 2008 Nebraska was #1 with just over 80,000. Alabama, Ohio St, and Penn St were all over 70,000.

In 2009 Ohio St was #1 at almost 96,000. Alabama was over 84,000. Nebraska and Penn St were both over 76,000.

So we are not the only team that goes over 70,000 people wasting their time at a glorified practice. In fact we have only done it for 2 years.

I agree Kstatehater.

I wouldn't go to the glorified practice if I lived in the stadium.

i wouldn't go to the glorified practice if i was the stadium.

am i bashing the glorified practice? DOG forbid! i believe it is one tool, among too many to count, to help the coaching staff put together a gameplan with the right personnel to help win ballgames.

am i bashing the people who think it's something other than a glorified practice? you're goddam right!

I'm sure it's a very helpful tool for the coaches to lead our team to the next level.

 

[Brasky]

of course that's all it is, but like irule said, shit i'd watch every practice if I could, and it just so happens that I get to watch this one, so piss off assholes you're not gonna ruin this for me. I'm gonna fill my belly with brats and brews, chase some skirts and watch some husker football practice. That just sounds fuckin awful. God there are some crybabies on this board. Shut yer yaps you friggin girls.

I'm pretty sure it's pretty much sold out every year. I know at least one of our "down" years there where 20,000+ seats blocked off due to renovation. I haven't missed one in about 8 years since i've lived in Lincoln, but it really has more to do with the fact I don't have anything better to do. The tailgaiting is fun and I know we're going to win I'd skip this year but I'm getting free tickets. It's good for recruiting, other than it's not worth the hype.

 

[Brasky]

Everyone on this board knows it's a scrimmage idiots.

Bitches' gonna bitch. It's sad some people get more plessure by hating on others fun than they do having their own. I say fuck'em!

"PRACTICE"



"Like totally omg- just got my spring game tickets"



I swear if one more person asks me if I want to drive a total of 5 hours with them to go watch a practice............





Just a drive by...........

If I could give myself a rep point for that post I would.....


Gotta love trolling your fellow fans........



Think about it- How often do me and Jed agree on something???????




I really have no opinion on the event... however I still will not drive 5 hours to go to a practice- I however did go every year I was in college.........

 

[landon410]

i would love to go watch, but yea..... buyin tickets, driving from omaha, fighting grandpa driving down the interstate so i dont get side swiped
racing for first come first serve seating

only getting to see the good players play a little

then driving back home

while i would love to be there to watch it, it isnt worth the trouble for me

 

[jedburks]

Would I want to watch a practice? That is a definite yes.

I realize that I have misspoken in this thread already. I called it a glorified practice. I meant to say that it is a glorified scrimmage. Practice is something completely different. I would love to go watch a practice with all of the different individual drills from all of the different positions and all of that. That is something I would go see.

What is going on on April 17th is not a practice.

 

[HuskerPower52]

Fucking cry about it. Jed you say the same bullshit every year like this is new. we know your two cents on the spring game, glorified practice we get it. you dont want to go dont go. but dont make it out like we are all a bunch of morons for going an watching the spring game.
