Fuskers to start in Ireland in 2022

[coolerifyoudid]

Can we figure out a way to keep them there?

I figure 15 years of overseas games should do the trick.

Why?

I understand why a pro sports league, like the NFL would want to do this; expanding their market presence. But I don't see how a college football game would appeal to international markets.

You have no idea how many redheads watch Husker athletics.

 

[mj4cy]

Can't win in the US try another country.

Depends...if it were a schedule road game...why not? I take it that Nebraska was supposed to be the home team?

Supposed to be at Northwestern, according to the B1G schedule release from Aug. 2018.

A conference game is way more important than a non game. I guess I just wouldn't care for the possible variability that would go along with a game over seas.

Yeah...for sure! It would/could throw a lot of things off for sure! But I guess that could work for/against both teams. I do feel that MC wouldn't like that change in routine at all...however JP might like the paycheck that could/would come with that game?

Maybe this is the excuse Nebraska has been waiting for to get out of the Oklahoma game. "We need a year to prepare for this game." Going to Ireland is like going to Mars except it's green and has good whiskey while Mars just has a bunch of green aliens trying to attack you and take over your planet.

Have you ever been to Nebraska some of those people especially in the western part of the state literally look like aliens or like this guy from men in black.

I foresee Ireland imposing a travel ban on Nebraskans in the aftermath of this game.

So you are telling me that there are people living in western Nebraska? My last drive through the state would tell me otherwise.

St. Patrick will return and Ireland will be free of snakes and Fuskers (not that there's a lot of difference).

 

[jcyclonee]

You know, Nebraska may need to cancel this trip to afford Scott Frost's and Hoiberg's buyouts.

Frost for sure

 

[Shawker]

They probably have a better chance of winning at football than they do winning at football.

 

[CyOps]

They were supposed to play Illinois in Ireland this year.

 

[heitclone]

They were supposed to play there this year against Illinois, I believe it counted as a home game for the Illini

 

[JP4CY]

They were supposed to play Illinois in Ireland this year.

Nebraska vs Illinois? Woof

Someone feeds that cattle.

Big10 is now trying gimmicks to pump any life they can into a dead Fusker program. They really thought they had something when Nebby left the Big12.

 

[Malone]

What a cute little gimmick for a dogsh1t program. Surely we’re all fooled into thinking you’re relevant now, Nebraska!

UNL would NEVER EVER give up a home game. Maybe at Arrowhead and even then I highly doubt it. They would schedule cupcakes 20 times a year if they could. Morningside? Peru State? Sign them up.
