Fuskers to start in Ireland in 2022

[helechopper]

Where's me CORN!!!!

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.

They didn't expect the AD to be this incompetent with its football hires. No one did.

Nebraska played Purple Kansas in Tokyo in 1992. Huskers went 9-3 that year. Losing to #2 Washington, ISU and #3 Florida State in the Orange Bowl.

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

Maybe if they beat up on a bunch of soccer players who've never played american football before it will satisfy their superiority complex for a while.

Nah, it would never work.

Just think how much more the Irish will hate the US after having a bunch of Husker fans doing their stupid mating call all over the place in their starter jackets.

I support the idea of having a game in a different country. But ND should be one of the teams otherwise it is dumb.

If you ask Nebby, they are the same level of brand as ND.

I would LOVE it if ND was matched up to play Iowa State in Ireland!

No thanks.

They aren't even on the level of North Dakota, let alone Notre Dame.

Do we have to let them back into the US after the game? This could be a win for everyone if coordinated correctly.

Well, except the Irish.

If it was Huskers vs. Hoks and they both had to stay...wow! Like winning the lottery.

Those candy assed fans wouldn’t stand a chance in those Irish bar fights.

Yes Nebby is a joke but there's really nothing not cool about this, Aviva Stadium is a pretty amazing venue.

What they said about playing in yankee stadium.

 

[Gonzo]

Yeah but Aviva has a field that's actually set up for football. And it won't be in January.

 

[ISUTex]

I understand Notre Dame playing there (They've played Navy there a couple of times already). Or Boston College. Nebraska? Northwestern? WTF???

I remember one year Iowa came to Madison and I was in a bar--Hawk fan called a local pale ale 'weed beer' because it smelled like...a pale ale. Apparently anything that's not Busch Light is weed.

The looks Husker fans will get in pubs. Yikes.

Wonder how many will get their asses kicked by trying to order Irish car bombs

Ireland is awesome ... I would 100% attend a ISU game there.

I went to Dublin for the 2018 USMNT Friendly vs. Ireland @ Aviva Stadium, and it was a fun, fun trip!

UNL would NEVER EVER give up a home game.

Just saw this thread and this was going to be my response. Nebraska always, always, always has 7 home games minimum. Their attempt to cancel Oklahoma this season was so they could get an 8th home game. You see, COVID disrupted their revenue stream. You can probably look back for decades before you might find a season where they didn't have more home games than not.

 

[cyclonesurveyor]

Notre Dame was supposed to play in 2020 to which my Irish friends were like cool its Notre Dame.

They couldn't tell you where or what a Nebraska is LOL.
