huskers lead nation in least rushing yards

Thats pretty misleading because we haven't played a running team. That will go up against the likes of sproles, purify, peterson,etc.

True. It is still pretty early. I usually look at stats like that closer to the middle of the year.

Aww comeon guys..message board people arent supposed to use logic like that...the guy who wrote that headline would be extremely disappointed in you.

Youre practically taking food outta his kids mouths with that attitude.

What about Joe D for Heisman?? That headline stood up... a week.

Yeah I think we do have a good defense but I still am not sold on our d tackles and linebackers besides ruud.

We may not finish the year number one in rush defense, but we need to be strong in that area. Teams are definitly going to try to run the ball on us because are safeties are great at reading the quarterback in two deep coverage. All we have to do is play our positions on defense and not get out of position like we did against Colorado back in 2001. A great defense doesn't have to be full of All-americans, we just need to play our positions and make teams one dimensional.
