Well after what I saw on Saturday, Nebraska did deserve to drop a few spots, now if this was later in the season I guarantee we wouldn't have dropped at all, that's just how it works. It's early in the year so the pollster's are skeptical of everyone, just look at OU last week they dropped a few spots, and now they are back ahead of us with a good game. Now thinking of what we have done since Pelini came to be head coach, we really don't go out and run up the score on anyone, even though we could/should. It always seems like we start to take it easy on the other team, and I think that's just the type of guy Pelini is. People want to go around saying that we just stopped being so fierce because we got far ahead and they get cocky and don't think they need to try hard. To me that is totally wrong, yes mistakes against Idaho doesn't look good, but there was nothing spectacular on the play calling showing that we were trying to actually get more points after going up 31-0/31-3 at halftime. This early in the season there really isn't reason to go and murder a team just because we can, as much as us fans would like to see it. But why start going all out when you can keep your players rested, and leave room for improvement, when we really don't have to go and try all that hard against these so-called cupcake teams. Early in the season style points don't matter as much as they do in conference play or against the top 25. So does the showing against Idaho worry me, no and yes, no because we knew we were going to beat them but yes because the mistakes (penalties, and turnovers). But really you watch how easily we were able to get the ball down the field when we looked like we were trying, there was no way they ever had a chance. This Washington game WILL prove a lot only because its our first away game against a well known team(not necessarily a good team). I really don't think we will have a problem, and we won't have a problem until we play A&M and to me i think we will still win. But I am probably high on but HUSKERS really have a good chance to run the table this year, at least the Big 12. Go Big Red

Had to go to my cousin's wedding during the Texas Tech game in 08 when it went into overtime. Had to listen to it on the radio in waiting room before because the tv they had in there didn't have cable, I didn't find out til after the wedding that we had tied it up and going into OT. I still missed the end, would've been a great game to watch. I hope no one I know schedules a wedding during Husker Football season, otherwise they are going to get a swift kick in the you know what.

From what I understand, Fisher was the one injured today no one else. But it was confirmed that he broke his leg, terrible news to hear. We will rise above this and our defense will still be great. I wish today was Sept. 4th. I can't wait.
