HowlingHusky Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 You'll have to excuse many of us Husky fans. Many Huskies are not used to being 2 and 0. They think that holding someone to 20 points is domination. They weren't around for the late 80's and early 90's version of the Montlake dawgs. Don't take offence to it. I've had this game circled on my calendar for a while now. I like the Huskies chances, but I fear the Cornhuskers. The Huskies first visit to Lincoln was on my honeymoon and I was unable to fully enjoy the atmosphere. I would like to be there for this game, but I will enjoy it from home on San Juan Island. We don't get many Huskers out this way, but over the years I've enjoyed conversations with Husker fans: classy and passionate fans. For the most part, that's what you'll find with the traveling Husky fans in Lincoln next week (but, unfortunately, 60% bandwagoneering dawg fans on this board.) So, I hope you'll excuse the Husky fans that appear here over the next week. If the Huskies lose, you won't hear a peep from them again. Me? Win or lose I'll be back here to talk again.

zoogs Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Welcome to the board! Of course, visiting fans are not obligated to come here quaking in fear and kneeling before the supposed superiority of our Huskers. Naturally, though, we are going to disagree with any predictions of a Husker demise! Quote Link to comment

Naturally, though, we are going to disagree with any predictions of a Husker demise! What's your prediction zoogies? Just wondering... I think Washington will win a close one like 28-27. Similar to the USC/Cal wins of last year. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Based on what we have shown this year, anyone would expect it to be a close and hard-fought team. However, I think the Huskers have a lot they haven't put on the field yet. I think this team is building towards something special and they know it. So I'm going to go bold with my prediction and say 41-20, Huskers. Quote Link to comment
Minnesota_husker Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Fresno State hurt Washington. The Bulldogs woke this husker club up and I honestly think Washington is going to get a very mad team. I say it is 28-3 at halftime and final score of 45-13 Quote Link to comment
HuskerGBR Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I actually like Washington's chances in this one. I can't say Washington will win, because my pride won't let me. But I will say...NU-35 Washington-31 Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Bo should have a good idea what Washington is going to throw at us offensively. If he doesn't use this week to adjust for it, I'm going to facepalm hard. Quote Link to comment
Saunders Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 If it's the team we saw in the first half against Fresno, UW 35 - NU 17. If we actually play 4 quarters of football like I know we are capable of, NU 38 - UW 13. That's the mystery. We haven't played 4 quarters of football yet. Quote Link to comment
Husker NoNo Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 If it's the team we saw in the first half against Fresno, UW 35 - NU 17. If we actually play 4 quarters of football like I know we are capable of, NU 38 - UW 13. That's the mystery. We haven't played 4 quarters of football yet. FACT! Based on our trajectory I predict 3 quarters of effective football. 31-17 NU. Washington is a good team, and is getting better by the minute with Sark...I'm glad this is the last time we play them for a while. Quote Link to comment
EbylHusker Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Every fanbase has people that go to the other boards and troll for some reason. I think everyone here knows those people are the minority and don't represent the majority of a team's fans. Quote Link to comment
melscott62 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I think way to many people are forgetting that bo's team have a game or 2 per year that they look terrible. (ISU, south Dakota state anyone?) I think we see a bo pelini defense on this week. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 One more thing, you guys really aren't used to being 2-0? Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Overkill Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I'm officially jealous - would LOVE to live on San Juan Island. Quote Link to comment
Hammerhead Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Let's not kid ourselves, Washington has a shot at winning again. I still like Nebraska in a closer-than-advertised game, though. Quote Link to comment
