shpadoinklehusker Posted November 14, 2010 Author Share Posted November 14, 2010 fine. I was hoping for a better and more accurate answer. Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Should do just fine, they have a pretty good RB in Cyrus Gray but we should be able to handle their young OL. Their recievers are good with Fuller and Swope but Prince and Fonzie should do fine against them. Tannehill is mobile enough to hurt us and has a decent arm. Should be fun to watch.

corncraze Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 aTm's running game is merely average which I would say is our D's main weak point. We should be fine Quote Link to comment
TheCheshireCat Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 After last night I'm more worried about our offense vs. their defense. I think our D matches up well against them. Quote Link to comment
GBRsal Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 mizery has no defense and held them to 9 pts next. Quote Link to comment
Gig'emAgs04 Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Like most football games, the battle up front on both sides of the ball will be the deciding factor in who wins on Saturday night. If Bo decides to let Prince cover Fuller man to man and not provide safety help, the Aggies will have to take some shots against him and hope for the best, like OSU did with Blackmon. Nebraska's key will be how they attempt to cover A&M's slot recievers (Swope/Nwachaku) and therefore how many men they commit to the box. Six or less and we'll attempt to run Gray and Tannehill. Seven or more and we'll try to take advantage of the man to man matchups on our recievers. Should be an interesting and fun matchup between two talented units. Quote Link to comment

The slot recievers will be blanketed by Gomes and Hagg, so I dont expect the slots to be a huge factor. Quote Link to comment

It will be intersting to see if Hagg can can follow him around the field all night. Quote Link to comment

BIGREDIOWAN Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 I don't think they'll be able to throw on us. The only team to do that successfully was OSU and aTm is no OSU. It'll come down to the run game and whether our D-line and linebackers can stop their run game. We've had problems against mobile QB's so this could be an issue on Saturday. Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 This season is getting down to the point where individual match ups are all that matters. This season is full of Team 1's beating Team 2's, Team 2's beating Team 3's, and then Team 3's going around and beating Team 1's. From a talent and coaching stand point, I think Nebraska is better than A&M. We definitely have a better defense which plays into our hands well. I'd say we should win this one by at least two touchdowns. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 If our defense can play like they should then our offense doesn't need to do much, but score SOME points. Our defense could shut their offense down and we could wear them out with our running attack. Quote Link to comment
