12 Days & Counting Amazing if True Husker/B1G Trivia: NU fans pride themselves on sportsmanship, applauding opponents, win or lose, as they leave the field. It's not quite as it seems, tho: The University stocks the corner of the stadium where visiting teams exit with ringers -- Mormons, Quakers, nuns & the like. In '90, Colorado coach Bill McCartney accidentally led his team to the wrong corner and saw several of his Buffs roughed up by fans. McCartney barely survived; 'twas the day he found Jesus, BTW.
