I agree that it is dangerous for the players...I seem to remember some play, years ago in a CU - NU game, where the Husker QB (Mickey Joseph? Keithen McCants?) got hit out of bounds very, very late and was literally thrown into one of the benches...I was probably about 6 or 7 at the time, and mainly remember how much my dad was yelling at the TV, so I might have this confused with some other opponent.
I thought it was strange that they cleared the section this year, given that during all those games while McCartney was still in Boulder where there was snow on the ground, the fans routinely through snowballs and iceballs at the players with nothing ever happening.
