Amazing if True Husker/B1G Game Day Trivia: Perhaps you’ve caught an occasional glimpse of a priest on Nebraska’s sideline and wondered why. Well, Bo Pelini is a good Catholic boy who likes to keep a priest nearby as his soul is ever in mortal danger during games. Indeed, there’ve been a few games where Bo’s had to go to Confession half a dozen times before the final whistle. Father also performs other Sacraments as needed – including the occasional Anointing of the Sick for game officials who run afoul of Bo and, yes, after the 2009 Big 12 championship game, the Last Rites for a conference muckety-muck who encountered the coach in the tunnel. And so, in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, GBR!
