Huskers vs South Alabama Watch Party  #Huskers #GBR #COTNgbr

Where: North: Third Base Northwest, 13301 US 183, Bldg E, Austin, TX 78750
               (183 Anderson Mill Road Exit, Northbound Access Rd, in front of Main Event

Game Time:    7:00 PM
 
Date:     Saturday, September 12, 2015

Very tough loss last weekend. Nebraska did a good job coming back from 10 points down, only to lose it in the final second of play on a BYU Hail Mary pass. A chance for the young Huskers to grow from this teaching moment.

This week's opponent in Lincoln, South Alabama, won their first game over the Gardner-Webb Bulldogs, 33-23. The Jaguers have a veteran squad with all their returning players and the ones that transferred from UAB after their program shutdown. Nebraska has a few players out with injuries. The running game for Nebraska looked good with the greater emphasis in the second half. Nebraska is heavily favored in this game, and hopefully can serve as a tune up for next weeks game at Miami.

Come on out participate in our raffle, the board with a chance of winning cash, and merchandise for sale. The Third Base staff is looking forward to serving all your favorite food and drinks.

           HUSKER VOLLEYBALL TEAM in town last weekend.

The Husker fell in their match with #3 Texas last weekend in 5 sets in a very close finish. Saturday, they made a few adjustments and came back from 2 sets down to win in 5 sets versus #11 Oregon. This is going to be a very good team.

We are looking for help with our ability to maintain a watch party at a South location. Dissatisfaction with our past location indicates we need to find a new location or someone to spearhead the current South location. We currently do no have enough volunteers to manage both locations. Please contact us at cotnme@gmail.com. Please contact us with suggestions for better serving our members while maintaining the goals of our charter.

We continue to have an enthusiastic loyal group of attendees at the North location and invite everyone to join us.

Please renew you membership as it is primarily your dues that allows the group provide a scholarship to a deserving student from our area attending the University of Nebraska. Dues are just $20 per year for a family ($15 if you are currently a Nebarask Alumni Association member). Your support is very much appreciated. All current board members volunteer there time to help see this happen. You can renew at the Watch Parties or at our website, www.cotn.me using Paypal.
