Street Novelist Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I hope not. Clemson had a monumental collapse this year. I think a NU/FSU would draw better ratings. Quote Link to comment
husker B-rent Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 agreed, if true then this is disapointing. Quote Link to comment
Apathy Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I hope not. Clemson had a monumental collapse this year. I think a NU/FSU would draw better ratings. That is very ture but Clemson has won 5 of their last 6 games when Bowden stepped down. Quote Link to comment
holvy83 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 agreed, if true then this is disapointing. New Years Bowl game disappointing... They made it there, can't control who we play, I think we match up pretty well with Clemson, FSU would be a tough one. GT would be a struggle also. I am just glad that they are in a good bowl, that does nothing but set the tone for years to come. Quote Link to comment
Huge Husker Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Is everyone forgetting that Clemson has looked MUCH better the last half of the year... Not to metion they have two of the best most explosive backs in the country. With the coaching they have now at the begining of the year they might be in the NC hunt. Speed can hurt us and they have a ton of it Quote Link to comment
Vince from ShamWOW Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 From a Gator Bowl perspective - it's all about putting people in the seats. But I am disappointed because I wanted Bowden's last game as FSU HC to be a loss to NU. Nobody said it's a perfect world. Quote Link to comment

Speed can hurt us and they have a ton of it I havent watched them, but looking at the last half of their schedule it isnt that difficult. GTech = Loss 21-17 BC = W 27-21 FSU = L 41-27 Duke = W 31-7 Virginia = W 13-3 S Carolina = W 31-14 Sure BC is decent, but they got spanked by FSU. Duke, Virginia and SC are all a joke. Needless to say I am not real worried. NU by 17. Quote Link to comment
PhillyHusker Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 http://huskersgameday.com/2008/12/breaking...ska-vs-clemson/ I'm starting to see it pop up on other sites. Should be a good test for the Huskers! Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 It's not official yet, but it might as well be. With that said, Clemson will provide a better economical boost than FSU, and I don't know why we are complaining, because we have a better chance to win. Sure, FSU would be great for nostalgic reasons, but more than anything I want to finish this season with 9 wins and huge momentum going into winter conditioning. Quote Link to comment
Axl_sued_me Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 The stadium is going to look like a giant grapefruit. Quote Link to comment
huskerpilot Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Well...If its true...we're going to the gator bowl. Thats what I care about. We got the bowl we wanted, lets not complain too much. Sure FSU would have been an interesting game, but like some people have said, I think we have a great chance of spanking Clemson. Its all about rebuilding. When was the last time we matched up against them anyway? Quote Link to comment
Nalow Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Clemson has a much better "D" than Nebraska. We've got the better "O" than they do. I honestly think whoever wins this game wins by no more than a touchdown. Quote Link to comment

huskerstuckinmichigan Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Man, those who go to this game are going to need sunglasses. All that bright RED and orange is going to be to much. Not the matchup I would prefer (want FSU), but should be a good game. Either way, playing in a New Years day bowl after sitting at home last year is AWESOME. Anyway you look at it, what a huge turnaround. Quote Link to comment
