by either way did you mean nu losses by 2 td's or 4 td's. Cause i could see them going either way if thats the case
I know this is a husker board, and you do reserve all rights to drink :koolaid2: , but I think your batch has a little something'extra'
, if you know what i mean :wasted
lol from one extreme to the other.... you better hope your coach and team arent as overconfident as the fanbase is.
I wouldn't worry too much. with every Joe Husker fan pointing out the lincoln streak and every media person bringing it up I'm pretty confident that Mizzou will be more than ready for the game.
My smart butt comment was simply because I am pretty confident, as most of you should be also, that MU is a better team than NU. People are talking possible NT and I am in now way confident enought to rattle a statement like that. I think there are a lot of games MU should win, but "been there, done that" before.
Truthfully though, way does husker fan overlook mizzou as a threat but is scared of TT. I have talked to and seen posts on here where everyone thinks they have such a good shot at upsetting MU but is marking TT as a loss. Tech is a one dimensional team. MU runs and throws, (ran for 176/g, threw for 314/g) scores (over 30pt/g avg for 3 seasons in a row) and was faster and physically stronger than NU last year. Everyone says NU is improving and thats good, but do you think MU is standing still just hanging out. Plus MU has kicked TT rear end the last three times they played, if you want to know to beat tech, watch the game film.
Besides husker fan, althought the national media is paying you no attention, I would bet that every BIG 12 team still wants to kick you butt. What, do you think one year is enought to satisfy the taste buds of teams that took it up the rear for years. Your team is a target, and will continue to be one for the while, even if there is no improvement. You WILL still get everyones top game.
wow, thing is though, this is all PRE SEASON. last season, nebraska was supposed to compete in the north, and possibly make a run after upsetting a USC team that we were supposed to be pretty equal to. while on paper, mizzou is better than nebraska, it isn't like Bo is coming into a bare closet here.. there IS talent here.. this is the most "talent rich" era i've seen... if they all finally come together and actually play as nebraska and not as the name on the back of the jersey, this could be a team to watch. will they win the big 12? no. the north? no. but mizzou and ku both better watch out......
now on the colorado topic. being behind them wouldn't be overly surprising, because they are getting better, no matter how little we all would like to admit it. but, since the game is here, i would expect us to win that game, and that game being the difference between us and them this season...
how sweet would it be for both KU and MU to lose to NU and CU?
