RedDenver Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I hope Prince is going to read this. Dennard was beat and Prince was beat as well. Alex Henry can only kick so long!! What? Is there an article or something you're talking about? Quote Link to comment
mmmtodd Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 its true. you wanna beat the best, you go after them. bob stoops will go after him, test him. landry and company cant afford to simply give up one side of the field- gundy came after him with an accurate qb and a pro level receiver. its been shown it can work. the best team will win saturday, and i hope everyone brings their A game.

kansas husker Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Let them try in Ubbens article breaking down the big 12 players of the year, he brought up a stat. Prince has been thrown to this year 40 times, 11 were completed and 5 of those completions were to Blackmon. Other than the best reciver in the nation attepts to throw to prince are 6 for 35 good luck with that. Quote Link to comment
Hercules Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I don't really understand the OP, but since Prince is about 12 games overdue for an interception, I say go ahead throw his way... Just tempt fate one more time... Prince = this year's Matt O'Hanlon Quote Link to comment

I think OU's passing stats are misleading. Remember that OSU has a very balanced attack. Some of Blackmon's potential plays are being eaten up by Kendall Hunter runs. OU throws more than OSU, so I would expect Broyles' raw numbers to be higher: he's had more bites at the apple. Quote Link to comment

Just tempt fate one more time... Prince = this year's Matt O'Hanlon I appreciate what you are trying to say here. And Ohanlon had plenty of picks.... but Matt doesnt hold a candle to Prince. Many of Matt's picks were gift wrapped. Quote Link to comment
huskernumerouno Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Try him, Test Him, Challenge him. On average you will lose that battle. Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 let him catch it, just keep him in front...which means we need to tackle real well. Quote Link to comment
Husker Z Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Bring it!! I PRAY that Landry Jones throws the ball 60+ times Saturday night, like he did last week. He's already on the list of QB's that this D has made look stupid, I hope he gets to place his name on that list once again! Quote Link to comment
dave Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 ... 5 of those completions were to Blackmon And how many of those 5 were terribly under-thown? Prince had good coverage but didn't get his head turned around in time. I think if he'd turned to look he would have picked at least 2 of those 5 off. I'm sure he learned this from watching tape of that game. (like tape is used anymore...I suppose their tape is now HD on a 50 foot screen) Quote Link to comment
maskershake Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I watched several highlights of they year yesterday, just to help fill the week, one thing I noticed is Prince has dropped 3-4 picks. Hope he's got his sticky gloves on this game Quote Link to comment
maskershake Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Not to take away how good he is, just want to be clear. He probably isn't used to being thrown at this year haha Quote Link to comment
skerinKansas Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Neither team will have an advantage when it comes the the Broyles vs Prince/Alfonzo match up. Ryan will make catches, and get yards; he's just too good. Where NU will have to win this game is with Hagg, Gomes, David, Cassidy, Osbourne making plays on the other threats. Ou is very similar to OSU with the stud (Blackmon) and a nice, but not spectacular compliment around him. Make no mistake, OU has good athletes, but only one Broyles. If the under guys (Hagg, Gomes, David) are able to cover up the slots/TE's for OU, we'll be able to get pressure on Jones. From there, our D can really open up. If Jones can really spread it around and pick his matchups, we'll play much safer. Think to MIzzou, we got most of the sacks when Gabbert realized he couldn't make his throws right away. Same thing we did to Jones in '09. OSU was able to hit some deep balls early, so the safties had to stay back an extra few steps, which opened up their running game. I would expect OU to go with that type of game plan early to see what they can get over the top. That means the early mtchup of our D line and their O line is the one to watch. This should be very fun!!!! GBR Quote Link to comment
