Completely forgot about this game - 1999 Texas wins at home Vs Nebraska 23-20 in late October.

The Longhorns would go on to a 9-2 record before losing three straight to end the season 9-5. This included a 22-6 loss in the Big 12 Championship in a rematch to Nebraska.

For the Huskers, @ Texas was their only loss, going undefeated the rest of the way, winning the Big 12 and a Fiesta Bowl match Vs Tennessee to finish 12-1 and with a #3 national ranking.

I wish I could forget about that game
I wasn't there for it.  Watched on TV
I was in San Antonio for the 22-6 beating

that 99 team was damn good - could have played for a national title w/o that crazy game in Texas
