I feel it ends this year. I have already seen a great deal of poeple selling their season tickets on social media. Yes people will still buy them but those are poeple that would normally be buying the extra tickets that are available. But who will buy those now? I try going to a game every year. Best par is if I want to go to the Fordham game next weekend, I should be able to get tickets on Friday for about $20 each.
Sellouot Streak....

Just checked Huskers.com, and there are tickets available in blocks of 8. $73 per ticket. I’m thinking the sellout streak ends this week
$73? That better be a spot next to Frost with the ability to call several plays.
Just don't put your tickets on your windshield with a note the tickets are free. There just might be more there when you return (an old New Orleans Saints occurance).
The sooner it ends, the better, just one more thing the program needs to help it rise from the ashes someday.
My hunch is the sellout streak ends this week. They should never have scheduled Fordham. What a ******* joke and shows how much the money angle rules the day. Moos put money ahead of all else in scheduling this game. I got my doctorate at Fordham. They give tickets to Fordham home games away for free in the student union. Their stadium holds 15,000? Good grief. Now we lose to Illinois because Frost can’t coach. No way we sell out for Fordham. And if we do, it is fake

Is that true? Frost isn't the only delusional one in Memorial Stadium if so.
Only a sucker would pay 12 bucks a ticket.
Scalp for 5 bucks or for free.
11am fordham.
11 am games suck, this opponent sucks, and we suck.
It’s just sad what’s happened to NU.

I’d choose the burrito. It will give you some pleasure, and won’t leave such a bad taste in your mouth.
I think we should buy the remaining tickets give then the state patrol when the pull over a traffic violation give give the person two tickets and say no fine but they must attend Saturdays game
Since so far frost has been a bust he needs to step up use some of his 5 million and buy the rest of the tickets and give them to high school football teams
So they can watch poor football and learn from mistakes? They say never teach something the way you dont want it done, teach it the way you want it completed.
Maybe Coach Frost should buy all the remaining tickets to the game and give them out to maintain the sellout streak and show his appreciation for Husker fans during this rough time.
Those are being re sold though right? I realize buying them for 10 bucks is going to prevent people from buying them from the university.
I agree. If Nebraska had a 5-10 year stint of mediocre football, then recovered, it would be much more believable. This topic circulated around the work email this morning and it was amazing how many think it’s a sham - Nebraska fans and non fans.
NU football and burritos do have an unfortunate commonality: Both lead to butthurt.
The athletic department is essentially assuming the entire fan base is of extremely low intellect if they try passing off the “sell out” streak as anything but over after this weekend.
fans should be insulted that they expected them to go along with the charade for as long as the con has been currently running

Bad part about all of this is that it will affect the players more than anything. I dont think there is one person who thinks these guys dont bust their asses during practice and games. They do whats asked of them by the coaching staff. The problem is what this makeshift coaching staff is teaching them.
This is not really that bad of a game, in the past this would be the game that a lot of people that normally could not get tickets to would get to attend and take their kids or their Dad, something like that.
Heck even if Frost had 5 wins, 6 wins and say 5-3 last year, with beating Illinois last week, this game sells out with ease.
But now when you have a super lame team with a coach that is clearly going to be gone at the end of the year, well, now this game is lame. Which I get and I totally understand.

Speaking of cheap tickets and empty stadiums. I got free tickets to the Mizzou/Texas game in 05. The stadium was more than half empty, just walked down and sat in the first row to watch Vince Young and Brad Smith.
