Husker Spring Game Attendance
Husker spring games saw a resurgence during the Callahan/Pederson era, but this was the first sell out in school history.
The NU staff reportedly did not want this year's spring game to be televised to prevent opposing teams from getting game film of the new program. Once that decision was made, the push was on to sell out the game. Husker fans were happy to oblige given the renewed optimism surrounding the return of Tom Osborne and Bo Pelini.
