Red November Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 Barrett Ruud had 15 tackles. He needs about a dozen or so and he's got the all time record here at Nebraska. If the "D" doesn't play this well, we would have lost by 20 Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 Agreed. Again we rely on our defense to salvage the game. Quote Link to comment
Eric the Red Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 I'd like to give mine to the Defensive backs. Couple injuries, Huston coming up pretty big, Safties never got beat deep. Good run support. This wil be a common theme throughout the season.... Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 I would give my game ball to the entire defense. They played great and continue to impress me each and every game. No one besides (Rudd and maybe J. Bullocks) are All-Americans this year and we are still great. Each player knows his role and goes out and does it. Quote Link to comment
Benard Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 Fabian IS awesome, pro corner. Ruud, if he don't make a tackle it seems like they get a good gain. And Huston as the suprise player so far this year. Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 I agree Bernard, Huston has done a great job so far this season. I think that he will get the most improved player so far. Quote Link to comment

And Huston as the suprise player so far this year. Huston made some great plays against Kansas. I was pleasantly surprised. I hope he keeps it up because he could definitely be an X factor for the defense. Quote Link to comment
Benard Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 With that being said we need Lornell back. He isn't the greatest but he is bigger and stronger and more experienced at the corner. Grixby didn't look real good this week to me. He's alright at covering but he's not strong enough yet to be a sure tackler. Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 Bernard, do you know if Lornell will be back at 100% next week. I think that we are going to need him. Huston has done a great job of filling in, but I think that we will be sitting in nickel and dime coverage all game against Tech and I would feel better with him out there rather than watching Seigel tackle some guy three seconds before the pass gets there.

Blackshirt Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 How bout Rigoni?! That kid was EVERYWHERE on special teams. Just a human bowling ball. Unstoppable. Without him who knows..? He seemed to be in on every play and the first one down the field. Kids amazing. http://www.huskers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?SP...9&Q_SEASON=2004 Rigoni have a game beer on me brutha!!

I would think he will be back. I'm 80% sure he'll be back. It's hard to tell with these coaches though. they act like they are going to play and then they don't play. Quote Link to comment
