What's Scary About Western Kentucky?

[Blackshirt316]

Lets just say that it's a 35 point spread and still a very easy pick to cover.

 

Idaho kinda scares me a little bit as a potential uh-oh game (not a loss of course but one we scratch our heads over a little) WKU... not so much.

I am sure Michigan was not afraid at all of Appalachian State as well....gotta prepare the same as you would against top teams. I am hoping that the starters can get some good rest and have some of the young guys in there.

One thing i've learned in watching/playing the many years of football is NEVER count the other team out, it's whoever shows up on gameday that decides the outcome.

 

WKU has it stacked against them that's for sure. But i just think people doing like NU 105-0 WKU is just ridiculous..lol

Do you guys ever feel bad for these early season cupcake teams after we rack up 92 points on them? And they score 0?

I don't really feel bad. The School is duely compensated by a check with lots of Zero's on it.

And I guess I'm referring more to the kids. They don't get paid, they just get embarrassed.

Do yourself a favor and go find one of the players that have played against us, or Texas, or Florida, or USC, or Notre Dame, or Ohio State, etc, etc, etc. Ask them if we should feel bad for them, or if they had a blast playing the game.

I'll get right on that

 

Look, I'm sure the kids don't care if we feel bad for them or not, and that they enjoy playing the game, but I don't see how getting beat by 60 points on national TV isn't going to be rather demoralizing. We've all seen players commit stupid penalties late in a game where they're getting completely whipped, and it's because the frustration sooner or later is gonna get to you.

 

 

Anyway, Go Big Red.

 

Final score prediction:

 

Nebraska: 72

W Kentucky: (negative) 10

lest we forget appalachian st. it is upsetting that we pay so much money out for basically a glorified preseason game, just to have an excuse to fill the stadium. it hurts the integrity of the game. i agree with knapplc, but it has to hurt a person's ego a little bit. at the very least, they would probably be playing a competitive game, but they got to understand that you have to be the sacrificial lamb at least once a season to have your season.
