Corn Nation Blackshirt tradition never dies



Oh, enough with the Blackshirt talk. Enough. It's only a nickname and a point of pride for our starters now; tradition. Charlie McBride isn't here to hand a defender that practice jersey, with Osborne overseeing the grand moment. This tradition started with the likes of players like Broderick Thomas, who looked like he was going to hurt whoever he hit on every play. That attitude kept Nebraska in the hunt for the Big Eight every year despite abysmal offenses that only scored twice in some games. If continued publicly, this tradition risks inflating the egos of some very mediocre Huskers. However, if discontinued, seems like an affront to the fans of Cornhusker football. No more talk about this. It's lose-lose and pointless to argue..........at least until celebrating a conference championship.............Go Bugeaters
