I think it depends on where you buy them.  Some places actually sell the whisky versions, but most gas stations sell the malt liquor versions.

Also the front labeling is different as the real version says “Fireball Cinnamon Whisky” and the malt version just says “Fireball Cinnamon”.

Huh, I had no idea!  Interesting!

I have been going to husker games for almost 30 years.   One, or sometimes two a year.  With some luck and some strategy,  I have never been to a game we have lost.   Some very close ones,  but no losses.  I was there for Alex's 57 yard kick to win among others.   I'm going Saturday and feeling good about it. Not because I'm going but because we are a match-up problem for them.  I don't bet but if I did,  I would place money that we cover.   Hope I'm right.

Well ain't that some flex... :lol:   You're far luckier than most (or more strategic as you say).

I haven't seen them win in person since Miami in 2014 and I make it to one per year also.  I also was in college for Franks 's last year,  plus the first 3 of Bill, so I've seen a lot of losing.  I'm over .500 total, but it's actually fairly close in 50+ games. 

 
So, will we play in softer coverage with our corners for at least the 1st quarter and allow them to pitch & catch down around our 25, then tighten up and try to hold them to field goals?

Or will we go all in and try to play a tight man coverage right out of the gate?

Going to be interesting.

I think this is the game where nebraska breaks the CU curse. I mean from 2001. Things havent been right since then.  I honestly think Nebraska is going to stomp CU.  The curse will be broken and we will feel it be broken. This release is building up, i just feel this year things line up for nebraska.

Did it not count in 2005 or 2008 or any of the other years we beat them since then?

 I would like to see if we can get pressure with four first before we start bringing five/six guys. If we can consistenly get pressure with four it'll be a game changer.

11 and 18 need to be on the field this week. Its doesnt do us any good if we get pressure and Sanders just runs around forever.  They are athletic enough to chase him down.  If Tye and Nash dont get him right away they arent getting him.  I think they are rewarding MJ for his hard work and leadership but he aint it

+1. I hadn't wanted to make the comment myself, but you said it so I'll pile on. He just plays kind of slow and his lateral movement isn't quite there.

But hey, maybe he'll find a higher gear somehow and turn some heads down the stretch. I could see it.
