Husker in WI Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 1 hour ago, BigRedBuster said: I blame those numbers against man more on the receivers than Raiola too - anecdotally I can think of a few times he didn't pull the trigger on open looks that I think were man, but I can think of more times where the receivers had zero separation. Curious if Indiana breaks their tendency, but if they do I like the man to man matchups against their secondary more than I did against Illinois and Rutgers. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

admo Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 I swear, if Cignetti says he/his team is "confident" one more time... I will barf. However, I do like the Huskers vibe going into this game after hearing them in pressers 1 Quote Link to comment
Kayvan Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 A team we beat 40-7 is beating a team at halftime that Indiana beat 31-7, so obviously we’re better and will win without issue. 1 Quote Link to comment

Giving up 28 to Maryland and 24 to Northwestern. I think our offense comes out of its shell a little bit and gets us 31. And as I’ve stated a million times already, they have not faced a defense as good as ours. FIU held them to 31. We do better. 31-24 good guys. 31 means we kick a FG? Interesting!! 1 Quote Link to comment

MyBloodIsRed16 Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 I hope we have been working on covering crossing routes all week. After watching highlights of 3 games so far IU really likes to throw across the middle. DB's also need to make plays on the ball when in coverage. IU's QB isn't afraid to throw it to his big WRs when they are covered. He just throws it and lets them make a play. I really hope our D-line just overwhelms IU's o-line. I think the D-line is way better than anything they have face as it has been stated. IU's screen game will need to be on point 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Last weekend same thing happened to OSU and of course they kept the ball when it was identical to what our WR's did though the OSU receiver actually put up a fight unlike our guys just letting them have it while on the ground.

I'd take our receivers fighting hard enough to even cause an incompletion. Even crazier to think they might win a ball like that against those NFL-bound DB types like Northern Iowa has... Dylan needs WR help where the current room steps up, and we need talent injection for next year. Quote Link to comment
