On any given workday, any little thing might send Steve Smith's
thoughts spinning back to Saturday-last Saturday, Saturday two
weeks ago, Saturday two years ago, back into the thrilling minutiae
of game day-until reality reminds him: this is not how
well-adjusted adults act. Steve Smith is not a well-adjusted adult.
He's a Nebraska football fan, and this is his rollicking account of
what it's like to be one of those legendary enthusiasts whose
passion for the Cornhuskers is at once irresistible and hilarious.
A journey into an obsessed Nebraska fan's soul, Forever Red
immerses readers in the mad, mad world of Husker football
fandom-where wearing the scarlet-and-cream Husker gear has its own
peculiar rules; where displaced followers act as the program's
ambassadors, finding Husker subculture beyond the pale; and where
the team's performance can barely keep pace with its followers'
expectations but sometimes exceeds their wildest dreams. Revised,
updated, and expanded from the 2005 edition, Smith's story of
thirty-plus years following the team takes readers back to
memorable game moments from 1980 up through the roller-coaster ride
of recent years. Blending wit and insight, Smith offers to the
uninitiated and the fellow fanatic alike a window on the world
where fantasy and football meet, where dreams of glory and gritty
gridiron realities forever join. This edition features a new
afterword bringing it up to the dawn of the Scott Frost era.
