It was a Friday nightsometime late in August on Cleveland State University'sfootball practice field. "Now guys tommorow will be our first game as a Division I football team, so it doesn't matter if we're winning by 3 with two minutes left in the game, or if we're losing by forty half way through the second quarter, I want you to give it all you got and leave everything out on the field" announced CSU coach jerry davis as the team gathered together in a circular shaped huddle to get a break concluding the hour and a half walk through. Most of the Vikings (CSU's nickname) players couldn't go to sleep that night knowing they were gowing up against the smashmouth Nebraska Cornhuskers. A team that won a BCS Bowl game the previous year and went 11-2.
