Stewart Mandel's upset special...

[southernoregonhusker]

is DONU. He has our boys going down to MSU by 3. He talks about MSU's excellent defense without talking about our offense that ranks first in the B1G I believe. Over the last 10 years, I haven't felt too confident in big/bigger games. I feel confident about this one.

Only thing that worries me is this game is on grass. We lost to UCLA and almost gave NW the only other game on grass. Other than that, I'm reasonably certain we are better than them, we just need to play better on grass.

I think that kind of grass is banned by NCAA.

That's kind of funny.

So.

Honeybadger don't care. Honeybadger don't give a sh#t.

But in all seriousness with that defense, this wouldn't be that big of an upset

Does Stewie have a track record?

Meh... they are much worse than last year and we are much better.

If we handle our business like we did against Michigan, it should more than make up for the home field advantage for MSU.

We should win by 10 to 14 pts.

We should win, but not by that much. Check the scores of every single one of MSU's conference games.

i think we win this and even if the score is close, we feel secure in the victory throughout the game. however, i will say that if msu wins, i hardly call that an upset. definitely not worthy of an 'upset special'.

In a way it's kind of complementary for this Stewie guy to consider beating Nebraska an upset. It says to me that people still think of Nebraska as one of the historically elite teams in college football (even though we all know the struggles that we've had these past several years). I think we win depending on which Husker team shows up. If our defense can play as well as they did last week against Michigan and our offense plays sharply without error we can win.

How is this an upset special? It's been pretty-much a pick-em game.

 

[skerfan2284]

I think it will be a great game, and come down to the 4th quarter. MSU has a great defense. I think Nebraska takes another close one..24-14.

Martinez will be forced to scramble more and Kenny Bell will hit a 100 yards receiving for the game.

Michicken lost to App State a few years ago playing on grass! It happens.
