iowahusker09 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I know you guys dont pay attention to this but its great for our program. Some great exposure for our guys. Lets hope we play well. RT @CollegeGameDay: Time to "Jump Around." GameDay headed to Madison for #Nebraska vs. #Wisconsin! Quote Link to comment
NoLongerN Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Having this on GameDay is gonna be awesome. However, I still think we get a public flogging and lose by three TD's ... and that's if we play well and don't turn the ball over. Our O and D lines are gonna show ... we have much work to do. I just see this as reality ... but I still have us ranked as a 20-25th in the country. Quote Link to comment
roundegotrip Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Mark, I think that's underrating the boys, but everyone's entitled to their opinion. Wisconsin has looked like a juggernaut, but bear in mind that they've played pretty much literally the weakest non-conference schedule in the FBS this season. No doubt they're a great football team, and they're extremely tough to beat at home, but our guys have been tested and are improving every game. Saturday can't get here fast enough for me.

krc1995 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I think we'll be suprised. I don't know if it will be a good suprise or a bad one, but a suprise is in store Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 UNLV lost to Washington State 59-7 and Southern Utah 41-16. Oregon State is 0-3 and lost to Sacramento State. Northern Illinois lost to Kansas and only beat Cal Poly 47-30. South Dakota isn't an FBS team. I know that we haven't played a ranked team yet or anything but we have definitely played better competition so far. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 "To me, (the atmosphere) is always really good," said Herbstreit, who played at OSU from 1989 to '92 before settling into his current role as a broadcaster and GameDay host. "They've been able to maintain excellence with the home-field advantage. "(It's) the same intimidating, hostile environment that it's been probably since Barry (Alvarez) got it going back in the mid-1990s." Herbstreit has been on the receiving end of that hostility. As a senior captain at Ohio State, he was famously struck by a flying tomato while taking the field against the Badgers in 1992. "We came through the tunnel, and two state troopers had riot gear on," Herbstreit said. "I remember them saying, ‘Gentlemen, we suggest you keep your head gear on.' I'm thinking, ‘Man, what are we going to?' LINK This is gonna be exciting! Quote Link to comment
epocSoN Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Hopefully we don't blow it. But I have a feeling this is going to be a Nebraska vs. USC situation from 2006(?) Quote Link to comment
HuskerfaninOkieland Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I hope like hell Corso picks Wiscy to win 1 Quote Link to comment
It'sNotAFakeID Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Damn...really wish the game was here this year. But it's cool to see Nebraska (and Wisconsin) to be the fore front of the college football world for next Saturday. I think Corso picks Wisconsin, but who knows...looking forward to it.

ESPY Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Corso's picks are generally right these days, aren't they? Just sayin... Quote Link to comment

Nate Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I'm super excited for this game, any Husker fans in OKC wanna come to my house and drink and eat some bbq you are more than welcome, we may very well lose, but our buzz and bellys will be right nice. Quote Link to comment
jsneb83 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 So I guess that means Gameday won't be in Lincoln next week. Quote Link to comment
huskerstuckinmichigan Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I hope like hell Corso picks Wiscy to win A FREAKING MEN!!! Also, quite honestly, any of the teams we have played so far could beat any of the ones Wisconsin has played. Like a previous poster pointed out, the teams the Badgers have played have been getting beat by every body. So what if Wisconsin blew them out, I guess we will see come Saturday. If Wisconsin kills us on Saturday, then I will be a believer. Quote Link to comment
