Nebraska-Oklahoma is at birthday game after almost a fiasco uniting fans in disdain: Sherman – The Athletic

LINCOLN, Nebraska – Nebraska won the unthinkable Friday. In these times of division, when it is apparently impossible, through any off-season discussion topic, to bring together a long-suffering fan base and all who watch this program closely and from afar, the Huskers have managed to bring almost everyone together.

With total disdain.

Cancel in Oklahoma? The bombshell fell at 8:57 am CT from Brett McMurphy of Stadium that Nebraska was considering “trying to quit playing” the Sooners September 18 in Norman – a game scheduled for 2012 as the first of a historic home series. This year’s trip would mark the 50th anniversary of the Game of the Century, won 35-31 by Nebraska.

Let’s say the news didn’t go well.
