"There are a personalities from that era: the consummate winner Tommie Frazier, the beloved backup Brook Berringer, the passionate leadership of Grant Wistrom and Jason Peter, the hard-working in-state walk ons, the list goes on. And never forget legendary coach Tom Osborne transforming from the guy who couldn't win the big one to one of the greatest coaches in college football history."

any pub is good pub, you have to be in the news to get noticed, kids don't care about what ESPN says, they won't consider NU if they never hear of them. Of course a nice write up is what we all want, but the only way to fix this is to start winning again, GO BIG RED!!!

Jeff Barker

Im 50/50 on the subject... and only voted yes because ME as a fan would love to watch this episode. But I never trust ESPN when it comes to Nebraska. They have always found ways to screw us, talk bad about us, etc.. I feel like they will bring up more negatives then positives.

Peter Campbell

There is nothing ESPN can dredge up that isn't already known by people who still care enough about college football. It will show a program that was once not only relevant, but elite. Any team worth its salt for as long as ours was is bound to have some skeletons. We were STILL the best ever!

Visitor

All publicity is good

Terry M Young

A lot of great storylines to go along with a summary of just how dominant the '95 team was.

Rick Klatt

I'm usually not on the fence when it comes to my opinions but I find myself looking for the not sure button. I hope that the production keeps everything in perspective when it comes to the great things NU was able to accomplish as well as those things that we're not so proud of.

Joshua Howard

It has the potential to air some bad laundry but I think that would be good for the program.

John Grabouski

The proof will be in the pudding. Ask this same question a year after it premieres. It is history...a history we are proud of....overall. Yes, their are some skeletons in the closet. A lot of kids gave their all.....yes, including LP. The story should be told. Objective?..I havent said that.

Jerry Williams

Everyone knows that bad, it was a long time ago and what was was. It will also show a great team.

"Nebraska 30 for 30 will likely focus on the things that darken that period. Lawrence Phillips. Christian Peter. Tyrone Williams. Riley Washington. The tension between Tommie and Brook. Tom Osborne becoming a "win at all costs" coach. CBS reporter Bernard Goldberg. Scott Frost campaigning for a title after Osborne's retirement. Where Scott Frost was rumored to be the night Phillips was arrested. The decline of the program after Osborne left. Who knows what other skeletons and whispered rumors may come to life that would cast a permanent shadow over an era that Nebraska fans consider sacred?" Show Less

Don't trust ESPN when it comes to the Huskers

bjb1959

I don't think it will be a focus on the team. I think it is an excuse to document Lawrence Phillips issues. I don't believe they will focus on the team effort.

Justin Carper

There is no way a rah-rah Nebraska piece is interesting to the general ESPN audience. They'll go negative to get ratings.

Anything that can get the players excited and more focused plus get the crowd intensity to rise is good for the huskers. If all black uniforms, like the Famed Blackshirt defense of old lights a fire by all means do it. To upset the Trojans will take a superb almost mistake free effort cause their up

Ron Graf

I absolutely agree with Joe

Joe Putjenter

I’m hoping the emotional, hype, and excitement continues through the entire game. No let downs.

Rick Distefano

We will finally come to play with 50 visitors watching and could mean a few commits early.

N A

It could, it will ramp up the fans and students and make for a very loud atmosphere which could provide us with some helpful USC offensive penalities.

Joe Nigro

Can't hurt

George mcdaniel

It will be just like colorado but better and nebraska will win 27 to 24 my prediction

Bob Flanagan

Yes it will … But emotion only goes so far … thry still have to perform and execute at a high level

No pass rush equals easy win for the Trojans.

VAHuskerFan

Unfortunately the offense and defense has way to many issues and USC is going to expose them, gonna be a route 52-13

Ted Fuller

No one on the field is looking at the stands. Ask Penn State how their white out has been working this year.

Suicide Slush Puppie

We're not disciplined enough, and USC has more talent. This game will not be close.

Mike O

The Funeral Blacks will be no better than the Surrender Whites at changing the outcome.

John Ballew

The game will be won or lost in the trenches and special teams. The color of uniforms means nothing once the game starts.

Ron Joseph

No - but the cold might more so. After the game starts the noise will be filtered out. But if our D can stop them consistently and we establish the run game & control the clock - then I like our chances

Need a new offensive line coach

Arthur Cayette

Finally Nebraska sport writers are taking off their rose glasses and viewing the Line issues which has been growing (girth not strength) since Solich days when I saw the first fat lineman.

Robert Lloyd

Dana Holgorson doesn't know what a run first offense is. I love the aggressive nature of his offenses but we will NEVER be great without being run first. Run first and then air raid.

Patrick O'Brien

If we hadn't lost to Michigan I would have felt it was a one off. The lack of adjustments looks like a coaching issue with multiple coaches offense and defense. The offensive line is pathetic and needs an upgrade.

Joe Kuphal

Nebraska has to prove it is not the same old story…until they do by definition it is.

Jon Howser

Incompetent coaching staff, admitted out coached, the defensive coordinator didn’t even know who was playing in the second half

Joe Hegarty

Need to come up with an offensive that fits the talent we have but doubt that will happen.

No big deal. Recovery on the way

Leave these boys alone. They are going to start believing the BS and senseless criticism y'all spew.
