Miami and Nebraska rekindle an old rivalry under the bright lights of primetime television. Get hyped.
The staff made the decision to roll with a true freshman this year at QB, and they finally opened up the playbook for him last week. To piggy-back on what k9cane said after the Arkansas St. game, I want to see more of it. That doesn't mean pass every down and ignore Duke Johnson. It does mean that this staff needs to keep letting Kaaya use all of the tools that are at his disposal, and to not be afraid to pass down field. Otherwise he won't grow, and this season is just a big waste of time.
Miami Notes
1. Miami's OL says they are ready for a hostile road environment.
2. It looks like Al-Quadin Muhammad has had a bad week.
3. Brad Kaaya started playing football at the suggestion of Cornhusker RB Terrell Newby's father.
Nebraska Notes
1. Nebraska's kicker is stupid and hurt himself.
2. The Huskers are bringing in a ton of recruits for this game.
3. Randy Gregory wants to get his 1st sack of the year.

Allons-y
Miami's history with Nebraska includes several legendary bowl match-ups. The showdown in the 1984 Orange Bowl is still considered one of the greatest college football games ever played. They've met each other 4 additional times since then, 3 of which decided the national championship. When 2 teams play each other in the postseason as much as we have, it's only natural for hatred to boil over amongst the fan bases. I hate everything about these guys. If you're old enough to have seen the 1995 Orange Bowl, you would too. Everything about them sucks. Even the 2 different versions of the letter "N" they have for logos.
Then there's the one they put on their helmet. Did you ever scroll through all your font choices while typing something and ask yourself, "What kind of idiot would you have to be to ever choose Arial Narrow?" Well Nebraska of course does for their helmet.
So dumb. Whatever.

Official message for this game: Let Kaaya be Kaaya.

Last time they met: January 3, 2002
Grassy was the only place that was around back then. I tried to look up stuff for it on the Internet Archive, but I got nothing. So instead just watch these highlight videos.

So bitter-sweet watching those. It's awesome to go back and watch, but it sucks when you realize neither of them are in HD. It really drives home how long it's been since we won a title. This game happened nearly 13 years ago. There's also this:
This dude's face was legendary on grassy at the time. The pic generated at least 10 million threads about it. He thought he was making a great decision when he decided to walk out of his hotel looking like that. So funny.
