Yes, we all know the game result was an unmitigated disaster. But Steve did some amazing work where the scarlet and cream of Nebraska against the yellow and black of Iowa really made the uniform colors pop in the shots below.

Amidst the loss, freshman quarterback TJ Lateef suffered a tear in his hamstring, making him one-dimensional as a player. That led to 9 of 24 […]

There were 10 of us trying to ignore the obnoxious Iowa fans in our section (unsuccessfully) while we froze and watched an increasingly embarrassing spectacle. If anything has sealed the ranchhand’s ambivalence toward Husker football, this game was it. The ranchhands are between 19 […]
