  1. Over. O/U: 2 turnovers by NU. Under. I think we have 0 after last week's debacle. O/U: 1.5 drives with Kellogg as QB O: 2 I say he has one at the end of the first half and one at the end of the game when we are up 14. O/U: 100 yards receiving Allen Robinson
  2. If we undergo a coaching change i would expect this to be the last few games for Abdullah and Mr. Gregory. If we have a coaching change and both these guys have high draft grades I would not be surprised if they both left this year. I wouldnt come back and risk it with a new coaching staff and a new system.
  3. I said coming into this season that we should lose no more than 2 games. Anything worse than a 10-2 regular season should be considered an abject failure based on the schedule. That said, I also assumed we would lose 4 games, because that's what Bo Pelini does. There is no reason, at this point, to believe it will be any different if he is around next year. Coming into the season we had a 4 year starting qb and a loaded veteran offense. Now we are decimated by injury on offense and being carried by a young defense. It was supposed to be the other way around with our veteran O carrying our young D. Look at what Mizzou did last year with their Offense being loaded with injuries and look how they turned it around this year being healthy. I agree at the beginning of the year I thought we would not lose more than 2. But that has changed with the crazy amount of injuries our Offense has endured. THe future for this team is really bright. Lots of talent on defense and we are already grooming our freshmen qb for next year.
  4. Proud of how hard they played. I can live with mistakes. I don't like it but I can live with it
  5. At fullback? No way ameer is coming off the field. This is a win or go home game. Run him 30 plus times if u have to. He can rest up all week before PSU. Let's do what it takes to get this W.
  6. Under 3. Msu will pound the rock at us and not pass much. O/U Nebraska turnovers 1.5
  7. Pretty versatile looking athlete. Would look nice on defense as a hybrid lb type.
  8. Their offense is better?? Didnt they put up 14 points against a stifling Purdue defense. They are better than they were at the beginning of the year, but I think Michigan has a better offense the their little brother.
  9. A couple of predictions by 247 coming in.for him to be a husker. That would be awesome to land him and bond. Let's use this momentum at the end of the year to pull a good class.
  10. But if we beat them we would both have one loss and we would have a tie breaker
  11. Whoever is in charge of covering funchess needs to have a huge day. Need to eliminate him on third downs.
  12. I would like to see us push the tempo offensively on Michigan on 3rd down to keep them out of their exotic blitz packages. I do not want to see what Armstrong looks like when Michigan has time to set their defense.
  13. Ball+Space=Poor Tackling The game is played much differently now than it was back in the day. In a perfect world you could wrap and drive but in open field, that is rarely the case. Their is no such thing as a bad open field tackle. Just find a way to get him down. Wrap and drive is how you are taught to tackle in the box. On the perimeter it is all angles and just get the ball carrier down.
  14. My son would cheer for the opposing team in basketball that I would be coaching against because he liked their color schemes. Kids are a bunch of traders.
  15. 1. 65-35 run pass ratio. 2. Let the young defense played fast and aggressive. Put some pressure on our back end by bringing some pressure. 3. Randy Gregory make lewan look like a fool.
  16. Run away with big 12? They are not even in first place and need help to win it. Ou is a bad game away against Baylor next week from being in the same boat as us.
  17. 1. Our secondary can cover. 2. It's an Injury plagued year 3. Abdullah is a stud. 4. We have grown a little mentally as a defense to bounce back from the bad start. 5. I can be heard 2 houses away on a successful hail Mary attempt
  18. Yep. We couldn't stop jet power read bc of Martinez last week. That makes sense.
  19. Over 3. Bo makes Beck stick to the ground. Also no Martinez. 1 for Abdullah and 2 for Cross # of sacks by Nebraska. 2.5 Over 4. O/U number of rushes for 10+ yards for NW 12.5 Under. With Mark out and us able to key on Colter we should be able to limit the run game. If they beat us with the run game I think it will be more methodical and not a lot of big plays. I think they have 7 rushes over 10 yards. O/U Abdullah rushes 22
  20. Roach could have helped with one aspect of the game which is defend the run. You dont need to be very fast to defend power. He would have hurt in pass defense which we ask the Mike to do alot more than most teams. But our backers didnt do much of anything in the MInny game. You have to do something good. Either fill hard or cover. Our LBs did neither of those things last week. Compton wasnt athletic enough to fill the full role of our Mike and he was not too shabby of an athlete. Roach "possibly" could have helped against a team like Minny, but any team that uses quick personnel would have made him ineffective.
  21. Different ways to teach tackling. Our coaches in college coached a sprint tackle where you ran with correct leverage and forced the issue to the ball carrier. You would never stop your feet while in pursuit. If you missed you had all 11 players running to the football with leverage and if the back broke your leverage he ran into another defenders lane. It is an attacking style that relies on getting hats to the football. Another style is the "shimmy" where you break your feet down and eye the defenders hips and tackle and run your feet. Different philosphies of tackling but can both be effective depending on your scheme and philosophy. And their is no such thing as bad open field tackle, just get the guy down.
  22. Over 3. Bo makes Beck stick to the ground. Also no Martinez. 1 for Abdullah and 2 for Cross # of sacks by Nebraska. 2.5
