holvy83 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 What did Gabbart end up for stats? Seems like he gets into too big of a hurry and misses receivers badly. I was expecting a lot better showing by this great Mizzou team I have been reading about on here the last couple of days... Honestly thought they would have a better performance before they enter conference play. Makes the 8th worth the price of admission Quote Link to comment
cscott2win Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 It was pretty obvious that the Tigers have a ways to go. Both lines are not even average, they have no running game and Gabbert doesn't like pressure and stepping up into the pocket. After watching the Blackshirts contain a vastly quicker Taylor I don't see Gabbert getting much more than a faceful of Suh!! Not very impressive Mizzou fans. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 It's not just his youth - Gabbert is slow. He was chased down twice by linebackers who aren't nearly as fast as what he'll face in the Big 12, and on that run down by the goal line he looked slow, confused and hesitant. Quote Link to comment
cornhuskers4ever Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Watching Missouri vs Nevada, I think we have a chance. Nevada gave Missouri a fight, and could have gotten in the end zone once if they didn't fumble the ball. I think Missouri will have trouble containing the Nebraska Rush too. As long as Nebraska isn't their own worst enemy. Quote Link to comment
Illojikal Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Mizzou v. Nevada just ended. I'll give Tigers fans this, Gabbert is good and will likely be a star soon. However, the Tigers rushing game is weak and Nevada did a great job plugging it all game. With the exception of a couple big runs, Mizzou is one-dimentional. Gabbert bailed Mizzou out of a half dozen third and longs by scrambling and throwing. The game completely changed on Lippincotts' fumble early in the 4th. Otherwise Nevada might win outright. Thats all good against Nevada who does not have the best athletes, but Gabbert won't get that kind of time against Nebraska. And if they can't run it, we'll bring the wood on the pass and trust that Suh is way bigger and faster than anyone Nevada has (Although than Brandon Marshall, #33 is a stud). Mizzou's defense also had no answer for how well Kaepernick could run. Granted Zac Lee can't run like him but Helu can. Nebraska running game is going to set up a couple longer passes by Nebraska and the Huskers defense will render Mizzou one dimentional. Plus with the extra week for Nebraska to prepare, it's over. Once again like I have said in my blog, don't take teams that haven't played anyone seriously. A late win against Bowling Green and a 10-point win over a winless Nevada doesn't impress me.

skerfan1705 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 These announcers need to remove their tongues from Gabbert's balls. A couple completions on third down, and he's the second coming... Love it love it love it! Great comment! Quote Link to comment

BigRedNV Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Nevada IS bad... yet Missoo had troubles with them all night long . Look for Nebraska to roll big! Quote Link to comment
TheCheshireCat Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Like I said I watched Nevada live last week vs. CSU. They got steamrolled, they look awful. If Mizzou is struggling vs. them and BG and we play as well as we did last week minus the big giveups, we're going to have our way with them. Quote Link to comment
BigRedNV Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Nebraska will roll...mark it down!!! Mizzery looked bad against a pathetic NV defense. Quote Link to comment
BigRedPowerWagon Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Nebraska will roll...mark it down!!! Mizzery looked bad against a pathetic NV defense. Last year i drank the koolaid. Not this year. Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 MU did look weak, although they will get up to play us, they sure look weak compared to last year's team. we should prevail. Quote Link to comment
SaturnDrew Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I will give Missouri this: The passing game looked pretty good, and Blaine Gabbert looked pretty good, but he still hasn't been tested the way Zac Lee has been. Suh will make sure to give him a Cornhusker welcome to the Big 12. The Mizzou offense looks 1-dimensional, and I hope our secondary can just play better than Nevada's did last night. The Missouri defense looked plain awful at times, and I really think they are going to have a lot of trouble containing Roy Helu. I give the early edge to Nebraska right now. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 That UNR funble inside the 10 changed everything but at the same time Husker fans need Mizzo to win, we need that to be a big game Oct 8th. Quote Link to comment
SaturnDrew Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 That UNR funble inside the 10 changed everything but at the same time Husker fans need Mizzo to win, we need that to be a big game Oct 8th. It would be nice if some of the bottom of the Top 25 teams (minus Nebraska of course) would lose this weekend so Missouri can be ranked a little higher when we play them. In the AP Poll: Michigan, North Carolina, Georgia and Washington In the Coach's Poll: BYU, North Carolina, and Georgia I left out the Big 12 teams. Michigan has Indiana this week North Carolina plays Georgia Tech Washington plays Stanford Georgia plays Arizona St BYU plays Colorado State Plus we have another week, so maybe, Missouri can climb up to the #20 or better spot so we can get that monkey off our backs of not beating a Top 20 team.
