We don't need the score but we need to move the ball and run the clock out a bit just to be safe

Took a lot of time. And with the 2 point miss, I don't think they'll have enough time unless we make mistakes .

Too many empty seats. And at such high ticket prices, the casual fan may not come.

Yeah it was pretty obvious in those last scenes how empty the highest level is but maybe a lot of people left early thinking came over

Our backs are awesome. Sawchuck has looked like probably the best ball carrier the first three games with Himon the Lightning guy and pass catcher and Komo with the most versatility but behind the other two, so of course Komo comes out and looks like a ******* beast tonight while Himon continues to hit bombs

Sad the stadium is half empty already on this historical day.
Unlike Fitz, Braun would at least try to get a FG to run up the score.
Thank you, Coach Braun!

This has been a perfect night, but not surprised by the empty seats.

The students have been incredible, but our fan base is still our fan base. I hate to say it, but it’s true. Hopefully wins like this remedies the situation, but it will take some time.

Looked like it filled in pretty well by second quarter then some people left at halftime due to us dominating and the late hour (for old people).

I offended Sawchuck. What a run.

The running backs will get all attention after this game, but the D was great. PSU only had one real TD drive and that was when we were in a prevent defense, causing them to use a lot of clock.

Yep. NU fans generally suck. At least the students showed up. It is mind-boggling to me that NU fans buy tickets and then either leave early or don’t show up at all. This team deserves better.
