Speaker 1 (00:00):
And here come the Trojans. That means it's time to
check in with our official Husker fan, Richie and Papillion. Richie,
good morning, good morning, sulations.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Congratulations Gary on retiring.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Oh thank you.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
That's tremendous.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
I might come back for this segment. Well, none of
us like that. I would love that.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Hey, just so you know, shout out one for my
instructor and the Jim Allison acl tear. She's coming in
all the time making sure her classes are done, she's
getting surgery. I just wanted to tell her thank you.
The annual Marching Band was excellent last week. They were tremendous,
and I want that to be out there.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Okay, they have what made him so good?
Speaker 2 (00:42):
They just sounded good, they were into, they were good. Look,
they're good all the time, but it was just one
of you know, sometimes you go to concerts and you
got better concerts. This was one of their best. They
were very good last week, and I just want that
nobody talks about them. They were good military stuff.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
They were doing, and we and we decided that that
as a must win. I got to win, yes, Richie,
So now now here and now tomorrow night, we've got
a problem coming in here.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
What do you think, Well, these are the problems you want,
right you want big games at night, you want national
televised games. This is what we want. And you know
they're they're good. There's no doubt about it. You know.
I think it's basically a playoff elimination game. If you
want to go that far, you win this game, and
you can win next week or eight and two and
with a bye week and all of a sudden you're
(01:27):
in the conversation. At least you know, we're a ready
ball eligible. It's October, so that's good. I just think that,
you know tomorrow night. You just first of all, we
got to start winning November games. That's important. So let's
start that. And Emmett is going to have to carry
this team. We need to start fast. Feed off the
crowd because the crowd is going to be lit up.
(01:47):
We all know that, right right, Oh yeah, more lit
up than normal because of other reasons. But anyway, you
know they'll be drinking. Yeah, that's what it is. That's
the other thing. It's going to be a little cool
in the US. It's play eighty degrees back then. They're
not used to this. I don't know if they hear
it ready or whatever. But cold isn't good. I don't
like the cold either, but I know they don't like it.
(02:09):
So that's gonna be an advantage for us. It's gonna
be a physical game. We're gonna have to tackle, We're
gonna have to stop their run. They got a heck
of an offense. Isn't like five hundred gods a game
twenty in the passing And I think one of the
keys is the red zones on both sides. They're a
top five red zone d We got to get touchdowns.
We got to get touchdowns. And I think special teams
(02:31):
can be a big, big factor in this game.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Again, well they always are.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
The difference is USC has athletes on their special teams,
so it might be hard.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
We have that opportunity too, And we got athlete.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
We got athletes too, I know Northwestern doesn't.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
And you know another thing, but why I remember in
this that was the worst referee game I ever saw
in my life.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Really, that's a highest standard happened.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Again. You know it's always against us.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
We never get no, no, no, no, that didn't have
that they they didn't. It was both that they meant
they did not throw the flag on that I know,
but they did not give him for the flag on
that last hold.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
And Richie, come on, at the end of the season,
it'll be fifty to fifty.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Would one of you talking a time? Please?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
What about the two what about the two shots out
of bounds that we didn't get called? I mean it's
just being held the whole game. It was awful. These
big ten refs should all of them? Should be fired.
Let's thought with firing those guys.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
You know what, this is great. This is almost November.
You haven't fired anybody.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Yet, right, this is fire anybody because you know, and
my coach got an extension. I like that.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Like that.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
I'm not firing anybody was six and two.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yeah, six and two should be seven on the I
can fire.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Look, I'll be firing other people in my other football You.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
Got plenty of candidates to be fired, just Nebraska away
this week.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
So you like the extension, huh, yes.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
I do. I Look, he's the right guy for the job,
there's no doubt about it him. Keep building. We're building
something here next year. Look out, I'm telling you.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Scott Frost said the same thing. How about let's get
through this year let's let's get.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Let's go to the next four.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Morgt Well, I like the extension. He's building something brick
by brick, and that's a good thing. Recruiting. We got
a big recruiting weekend tomorrow, right. I believe all of
this is just playing. You know, Let's go out there
and do something tomorrow. Let's have a good time.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I will say this. I will say this. I think
it'll be a lot of fun in there tomorrow. Nebraska
has constructed everything it can for the environment for this game,
this big November night home game. May not everything they can.
The megot hostile for anybody coming in here.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
First, that's the other thing. You gotta score first. Let
us go down a field, go up ten nothing.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
You know, you said, Richie, You said, Richie, the red zone.
You gotta get touchdowns. I would like to see Matt
take points when they're there once in a while, even
if it's only three.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
What kick the field goal? The field goal when especially
first possession. Take the points all the time, all the time.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
It's going to be except for this, except what we.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Want, guys, this is what we wanted. Lincoln James ni game.
Let's see blue blood the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
That's right. I agree with that.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I don't know they're playing USC be playing the Lincoln
Northeast Rockets in that game tomorrow n based on the uniform,
so I don't know where the Huskers are playing.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Don't get me started on that. That's a whole nother story.
That's just another scam to people buy stuff that you
know they don't have. Who's going to have that? You know,
dark coats like that. I got a red and white
coat with the coat, I don't have anything like. You
don't have a black ones against Michigan.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Well, I guess you can't go down.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
I guess that's the I'm wearing a red one because
I don't have a black one that's warm enough.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
That's that's what I mean that if they wanted to
do this, have that against Michigan. When everybody get a.
