NU 24 BAYLOR 3 RUSH 120 PASS 270

Got to trust the coaches. Just a very talented young man who is looking to be the anchor of the D line when Suh leaves. I believe I heard in a Bo interview a list of guys that Bo was excited about that Red shirted this year. Steinhuhler was on the list as well as Osborne, Courtney and Compton, Will.

Guess you missed the last two times you boys came to Lawrence. It will be close. I think we will win. As mentioned previously, though, our schedule could mean still not winning the North. The last two times in Lawrence were also coached by Callahan. Who was out coached by Mangino all four years. Callahan is gone, thank you T.O. KU has some positives going into next year with Reesing and Mangino. But the game is won in the trenches and NU has Suh. Suh will be the highest DT in next years draft and is going to wreak havok in KUs backfield. NU improves more than expected from year one to year two and takes care of business in KU. NU 31 KU 6

Nebraska 38 FAU 3 I'm going to be looking for Nebrakas first shut out. I don't believe it will be our first game. But it might be our second. It is going to be very difficult for teams to move the ball on us. Our D line is going to be one of the best in the big 12. Plus the huge amount of red shirts we had makes me very excited. Let the koolaid flow like a river of red.

Who did Texas get the play from?

So? Sell your ticket!!!!!!!!!! Or even better give it to me or any of the thousands of fans that would love to go to the game!

I do think that Bo's tirades are immature and unprofessional. Many others do too. His use of language is inexcusable and an embarrassment to the university. No educated adult should speak that way at all, much less in a public setting where you are an ambassador of a sort (representing, in this case, the University of Nebraska). The negative publicity is to be expected. I'd expect more to come. Also, I'd imagine that the refs in the B12 are less than impressed with Bo's antics and the benefit of the doubt on penalties will continue to go to our opposition and our guys will be flagged more often. It is natural, refs will do that if they dislike the coach. Obviously not all refs --- but Bo was not earned much love from the refs. Until Bo changes, expect that NU will be penalized often and that borderline calls will usually go against NU. And, if you do not think all the penalties against NU have hurt the team than well.... I disagree. I've never met a coach that didn't swear like a sailor. I watched the OU NU game from the begining to the end. He had every rite to get than angry. To me it shows he cares. However the perception is that he is out of control and unprofessionsl. Perception is in the eye of the beholder. As a fan I like it. How it goes over with others may not be in the best interest of the program.

BC was given 4 years to improve from his first year where he went 5-7. Nebraska went 10-3 the year before. Husker fans didn't call for his or any one elses head. Why? Because Solich went 7-7 the year before. Bo rignt now is 5-4 with 3 winnable games left plus a probable bowl game. We have a good chance at going 9-4. This Oklahoma loss is what it is. An outmatched Nebraska gave the Sooners the ball 4 times on turnovers. The ball on I believe the 45 yard line, 20 yard line, 5 yard line and a pick 6. Resulting in 28 points. We lost by 34. Bill Calahan was given more rope than Solich ever had. BC was allowed to lie straight to our faces after every loss with his coach speak. The entire State heard what he said and we all thought he was watching a different game than the rest of us. But there was little call for his job untill year 4 and at that point the wheels had fallen off of the wagon and it was a no brainer that BC had to go. Bo has the benifit of a longer rope than Solich and probably a shorter rope than Bill Calahan. I don't believe Bo would want it any other way. Bo likes the challenge and I don't forsee any 5-7 seasons in our near or distant future. I for one will be a patient but demanding husker fan. Go Big Red!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OU - 41 NU - 31 NU passing: 245 rushing: 96

Not to make excuses but the Big 12 and NCAA have done many things to pull the power away from Nebraska. 85 scolarships, higher grades, visits, food, title game ... We have one strong hold left and that is the walk on program. This was once a halmark of the Husker program that was all but destroyed by BC. Yet this will quickly be rebuilt because we have a fan base like no other state. Many of our boys would rather play for NU than take a scolarship from another school. They will play with the heart of a Husker and the day will come again when we are feared because their teams will be sore the week after a Husker game. We have to be patient with Bo, he has to teach these kids the right way to play and it is going to be hard to get the best recruits to come in here when we aren't winning. However in four years we are going to have a system in place where walk ons are Seniors and are doing the right things in our system. This will allow us to reload not rebuild. I just hope we will get better sooner than 4 years. I believe we will. Man the big 12 is tough this year. What are the chances that 2 teams from the big 12 play in the title game?

I think we have a good chance of winning. But I think we need to go a different direction than the general pulse. Fist off this idea that we need to establish the run first then we will win. I totaly disagree. If we try to force the run early we will lose. We don't run that good and they will stuff our attempts. MU's biggest weakness is against the pass. They are not ranked very high. We need to test them early. If we score first and get up by a couple of scores early we can win this game. The crowd will rock this team to a victory but we need to start strong. If we do our team will play with a lot of energy. It will be very difficult to come back against these guys but it will be just as hard for these guys to come back against us (they are supposed to blow us out). We don't need to over think ourselves, we pass better than we run. We need to pass to set up the run. Black shirts need to hold MU to under thirty points. GBR

I saw him drop more than a couple balls in the Red / White game.

I hate when people use this as a philosophy. Don't use a guy on special teams because he might get hurt. The last I checked you can get hurt on any play. Special teams IS 1/3 of the game. Look at how important they have been in all our games so far. 2 TDs, field goals, field position and blocked kicks. If you don't play your best players you are killing your chances of winning games. Do what every you have to do, play who ever gives you the best possible chance to WIN. To give less than your best players to 1/3 of the game is what Bill Callahan did and it was flat out wrong headed. How many red shirts did he burn???
