myselQ ran onto the playing field to
celebrate a game-icing interception,
pulling a delay of game penalty against
the Huskers.
1984: During the Kansas State
game, the Wildcat mascot got bonked
in the head with oranges at least twice.
Picking on the mascot of the nation’s
losingest team is a cry for mental
help.
1986: At the Oklahoma loss, a
Memorial Stadium security officer
was hit in the head by one of the
thousands of oranges that hit the field
that day. But this orange was frozen,
and the security officer has not walked
since.
At the Sugar Bowl in New Or
leans, Louisiana State players told
stories after the game of how Husker
players talked on every play, used
Vaseline on their jerseys to prevent
being blocked and tried to pick fights.
1987: After talking trash for three
weeks prior to the Oklahoma game,
the Huskers again left Memorial Sta
dium red-faced with a loss.
But not until a disgruntled Ne
braska fan threw his Sony Watchman
television onto the playing surface in
disgust
Throughout that season, Husker
fans were irked by the confident
comments of Oklahoma linebacker
Brian Bosworth, but found blurbs from
Nebraska’s Broderick Thomas amus
ing.
Among them:
“I don’t know who (so-and-so’s)
quarterback is, but I’m going to break
his legs. They’re going to take him
out on a stretcher.”
Pretty nifty.
1988: Nebraska fans booed Gov,
Kay Orr during the halftime ceremo
nies of the Homecoming game against
Oklahoma State.
A few weeks later, they once again
booed the Huskers as they left the
field at halftime trailing Missouri.
1990: Oranges, oranges, oranges
And a loss to Colorado.
This partial list undoubtedly will
get longer this season when Okla
homa comes to town for the annual
shootout. There were even a few
oranges tossed at last week’s Iowa
State game. But the only criticism
will come from Husker fans who won’t
like Sports Illustrated’s coverage of
the game.
It’s easy for people to forget things
when it’s beneficial to do so. Espe
cially in Lincoln.

three weeks ago. The Buffaloes fought
off a Nebraska surge when a Husker
lined up just a snag off the line and
was flagged, negating Nebraska’s first
touchdown. Then, when Nebraska
attempted to tie the Buffaloes just
before halftime, Colorado linebacker
Greg Biekert ran back a blocked Husker
extra-point and ran past a bundle of
Buffalo clips en route to a 12-9 lead.
Granted, the block of Nebraska’s PAT
should not have occurred. But still,
the no-calls were simply a pat on the
back that kept Nebraska from
outscoring Colorado in the end.
• The week before, on Oct. 26,
Colorado escaped Manhattan, Kan.,
after not exactly manhandling the
Wildcats (see Nebraska for similar
testimony). The Buffaloes escaped
by a whisker, thanks to four Wildcat
turnovers, winning 10-0.
• Perhaps one could have peered
into a Buffalo crystal ball and pre
dicted all this after the Buffaloes’
opener against Wyoming. The Cow
boys, who finished their season 4-6
1, trailed just 16-13 with 3:25 left in
the third quarter. The two teams traded
scoreless possessions before Colorado
lassoed two late touchdowns to create
a score somewhat characteristic of
defending co-national champions.
Speaking of the national champi
onship last year, let’s play that for
tune in reverse:
• Colorado won at least a moral
part of the national championship when
it beat Notre Dame, 10-9, in the Or
ange Bowl. A more deserving, unde
feated Georgia Tech team was passed

Nevertheless, Colorado escaped an
Irish pickle when McCartney decided
to punt to Raghib “Rocket” Ismail in
the last two minutes. Only an unnec
essary clip on his runback prevented
Ismail and Notre Dame from striking
gold in Miami. Sorry, Lou Holtz, but
Buffalo bits bite even Irishmen.
• Three months earlier, Colorado
beat Missouri 33-31. You’ve got this
story down. Fifth down. Columbia,
Mo., is the Buffs’ lucky town.
• The week before, on Sept. 29,
1990, Colorado withstood two Wash
ington Husky drives in the fourth
quarter to win, 20-14. The Huskies
twice drove within Colorado’s 20
yard line before quarterback Mark
Brunei! threw two rather uncharac
teristic interceptions. Another buffa
blow.
• Go back another week last year,
to Texas_Talk about a hook for the
Longhorns, Colorado scored 15 points
in the fourth quarter for a29-22come
from-behind victory.
But all that Buff luck runs out next
week. No matter the outcome of
Nebraska’s match-up with Oklahoma,
their luck will be blown by next Fri
day night.
Should Nebraska win next Friday
afternoon, the Buffaloes miss a third
consecutive trip to Miami.
Should the Huskers lose, Colorado
earns a well-deserved, much-antici
pated thrashing by Miami in Miami.
Dam the luck.
