Publisher's Synopsis
PUREBRED is the story of many Nebraska Football fans. Nebraska's third-largest city. Kent Cowgill is one of those fans. Every Saturday of every football season of his life has been devoted to the Big Red.
Diehard sports fans ride the emotional wave of the season from the highest highs to the lowest lows. From the beginning, Cornhusker red has run deep in Cowgill's blood. Family bonds were strengthened while listening to Big Red win (and sometimes lose.) He followed his team from his small town in Nebraska all the way to medieval French monastic ruins and back.
Along the way, life happened, but the love of the game and the Big Red have never waned. Cornhusker football is ever-present. This is a reminder to those whose teams are on top: the tides change but loyalties do not.
