You mean USC...who you lost pretty handily to? Sure. You played them too...and lost.

We haven't faced anyone near USC's level. They have. Our players will seem smaller and slower, and be less intimidating.

We however haven't faced a defense as mighty as the Black Shirts.

The reason I think we will beat you guys (A&M) is mainly becuase you guys don't have much of a passing game at all and that's about the only thing that will beat us. Your QB also tends to run a lot when he gets pressured and our LBs have done a decent job of hitting and striping those kind of plays. A&M seems to have some good team speed on defense, much like Mizzou and we were able to wear that down so I think we will bring a similar gameplan. One last thing is who has A&M really played/beat this year? Look below for schedule/ results...

 

 

Sat, Sep 2 Citadel W 35-3 - No Suprise

Sat, Sep 9 Louisiana-Lafayette W 51-7 - No Suprise

Sat, Sep 16 Army W 28-24 - Squeking by Army at home?

Sat, Sep 23 Louisiana Tech W 45-14 - beat much like we did

Sat, Sep 30 Texas Tech L 27-31 - Loss

Sat, Oct 7 at Kansas W 21-18 - Same team we struggled with a little

Sat, Oct 14 (19) Missouri W 25-19 - Mizzou gave this away by a ton of unforced fumbles

Sat, Oct 21 at Oklahoma State W 34-33 - Okla St. gave this away completely

Sat, Oct 28 at Baylor W 31-21 - Not a bad win

Sat, Nov 4 (18) Oklahoma L 16-17 - Loss

 

As you can see A&M has just barely snuck by everyone, they are a pretty lucky 8-2 team.

Army wasn't at home, it was at the Alamodome 3 hours West

Kyle Field scares everyone until they win here. You guys won in 2002, so no worries there.

Sorry about the missed win, but I was thinking you guys had a bye week somewhere.

A whole lot of the nation is gonna miss our great game!

The thing is that Fran respects every single team we play. He's very Dick Vermeil (sp?) in that regard, but he doesn't show a lot of emotion lick Coach Vermeil did.

That being said...

34-21 Nebraska wins!

Since we are 8-2 and you guys are 7-3, the logical thing would be for us to lose to you so that mediocrity can be obtained by A&M once again.

However, since you guys will clinch the North with just one more victory and we'll need two, plus two losses to t.u., then I have to ask for the Husker Nation to accept this loss as a goodwill gesture to our program.
