The theme throughout the video is a number of people including Rocky Balboa talking about how life is tough some hard and you should never have to back down. There’s also the infamous speech from Al Pacino’s coach character in Any Given Sunday laced throughout the video.
With that background, the video starts showing some truly bad things going on against the Husker team including that kick from the Texas Longhorns in the Big 12 title game. There are other truly negative things happening to the team throughout the last several years.
Then as the upswing of the montage of audio starts, we also see the Huskers start to overcome their opponents in a more regular fashion. The two sides of the video then come together to be something truly special and gives us goosebumps every time.
The video also seems to sum up the Nebraska football team in a nutshell. It’s been down for a little bit, but it’s time to get back up now and start throwing punches of its own.
