 | Every Husker home game, Dr. Tim Gay attempts something as crazy as running against the NU defense: bringing physics to everyday life. In one-minute segments shown on the screens around the stadium, he talks about basic physics concepts that play an important role in the game of football. |
| To see these clips, you'll need Apple Quicktime.
Note: lessons may take a few minutes to download over a modem. Select "(Small)" for a scaled-down version. Also note that the video controls (play, stop, etc.) might not be visible unless you zoom in or out of the page (Ctrl+Plus or Ctrl+Minus)  | |
| A special thank you to the people at HuskerVision: Tonya McMillion and Kay Dowd who produced these segments, and Jeff Schmahl who had the original idea and who is responsible for two-thirds of the bad jokes. | |
