Gotta give them most of the credit. They never gave up as a school, parent group, student group, or a state.

Good on them for not allowing bureaucracy to dictate life to them. On multiple levels.
Having lived in Omaha for 5 years, I can assure you this what they have. That and super friendly people. This is their identity. Really, it is.
Y'all talking about the hot mic thing, or is there something else?

Carter, who is not one of the 14 presidents and chancellors who will vote on the decision, was later asked about the conversation made on the hot mic.
"I think that was picked up a little out of context," Carter told KLKN television. "All I said is there's work going on and we remain cautiously optimistic, like everybody else, that we'll get to discovering when it's safe to play."

Oh really? Perhaps there is, but still Nebraska deserves props for their dedication. Thanks for the info!

I've lived In Omaha for the almost 20 years. They smelled a rat when the season was cancelled and fought back to make it happen. The other schools in the conference owe it a debt of gratitude. It's not a big school or wealthy school but NU loves it's football And is part of the states identity.
Big 10 could start as soon as Oct. 17

Yep
I wish there were more people in all walks of life that had the gumption and guts to stand up to bureaucracy like Nu did.

The Big Ten's football season is back on.
After postponing the season in August because of safety concerns stemming from the Covid-19 pandemic, the league said Wednesday it plans to start games the weekend of Oct. 23-24.
The Big Ten joins the Atlantic Coast Conference, Big 12 and Southeastern Conference in playing football during the fall term, leaving the Pac-12 as the only Power Five league sitting out.
The about-face comes after coaches, politicians, players and parents lobbied conference officials to reconsider, saying safety measures could be taken to combat the spread of the coronavirus. While that pressure may have helped, the improvement in testing capabilities ultimately swayed leadership.
Quidel Corp. said last week that it had created an antigen test that could produce results in 15 minutes and had already paired up with schools in the Big 12 and Pac-12. The University of Nebraska recently acquired 1,200 Quidel test kits.

They will spin all of this too as having done the right thing all along, returned when it's now safer after "careful consideration", for the safety of all of our kids and the country.cavscout96 said:Creative license....... they didn't "postpone" they cancelled.....SECTAMU#1 said:

I'm not a Democrat and they aren't freedom stealing. You only see what you want to see because of which primary you vote in.
