I've thought about this. Might have something to do with sound traveling at 367 yards/sec. If the band is on the field it takes time for their sound to reach people far away, like in the 600 section. Then time for them to clap and the sound of their claps to reach the other side of the stadium.

As a band geek - this is the case and results in a lot of out-of-time noise (clapping, "Go Huskers", and such) that can be distracting on the field if you're not focused/used to it.

This is compounded by the fact that the average human can't maintain tempo even if you tap their foot for them.

If Coach Jim ever faces a team with a linebacker, first name "Hut", last name "Hike"...he will literally **** himself by the 3rd play of the game.

Not only 90’s douche it’s called all time.. where you at on the list.Laughing
Oh I see. You guys have become so pathetic and miserable that you had to dig even deeper into your spank bank of wins no one cares about and travel all the way back to the 70s. Congrats, you guys sure are improving! Best 3-4 team ever!

Would be cool if sometime the Heroes game could be significant, but that would require you guys to be ranked and in the hunt for the West. Something that hasn't happened for 9 years 😂

Its somethimg to be proud of.. its not about being relevant.. we may never see it again but the great news is we have lived it..you can only wish

That's not true. I was guaranteed when you guys joined the conference that you would dominate the B1G and roll to the championship game every year. The only time I remember you guys making it there, Russell Wilson put up 70 on your asses. What happened, I thought the B1G was weak? Maybe you guys wouldn't have been so successful in the 90s if you had to play Michigan and Ohio State every year. But like I said earlier, no one cares about Nebraska 30 years ago anyway so no point in wasting time talking about them.

I came over to talk about the best 3-4 team in the country and everyone can only talk about the 90s here for some reason.

I thought you weren't supposed to clap. Last I knew your Snus chewing hillbilly coach said so anyway.

Iowa still crying about politely being asked to stop blatantly imitating the snap count in an empty stadium. Meanwhile Nebraska is actually penalized for trying to get lined up and Harbaugh is in full on bawl baby mode, after getting the call and winning the game.

Yet here is your dumb *** wasting time talking about Nebraska, seems you care more than you let on. Now go on, your boyfriend Chief Turkey Scrotum needs you to service him.

I do admit Iowa has not had any recent moral victories against Michigan or Oklahoma to brag about lately.
of course you did. your team is 6-0 and nobody even notices.

college football world is abuzz with thoughts on the Huskers, though. relevance is a funny thing.

I know you guys are bragging about being the best 3 win team this year but I think Iowa State might give you guys a run for your money this year. Maybe you can catch them in a pillow fight at the end of the year if you guys can limp to 6 wins.

Hell scarletred, you and I can do those 10 NU teams off the top of our head.
70, 71, 94,95,97 as National Champs for starters.

Doesn't even include the 5 times NU was beaten in the national championship game.

Sorry Hawkeye fans, not even a contest. Put that challenge out nationally and its a laughable topic.
