Oh the old out of conference schedules from back in the day. Not every year for sure but there were years.

Yep. In '81, NU played Auburn after losing to Penn State. The Huskers were struggling against the Tigers and were booed at halftime while walking off the field. Well, some guy by the name of Turner Gill started the second half at QB and the rest, as they say, is history.

And despite starting 1-2, we'd have won the MNC had we beat the Fridge and Clemson. Too bad TG couldn't play in that game.
