The Big Red Husker Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Mike Daniels is a pretty good DT for Iowa, if he played for us he would probably be starting right now, other than him their DL is not too intimidating, Binns is a decent DE but nothing spectacular. Their LB's are not as athletic as some but they are pretty decent at the point of attack, I think we can expect to see more yards on the ground vs Iowa than we have in the last two games on the ground. Thier secondary is led by a guy that should be our second lock down cb, but Callahan deemed him to be too short(Prater)but he is very good. Hyde is not quite as physical, but he has the ability to make plays as well, if they have an edge over us it might be here, as their safety play is also better than ours imo. We need to run the ball a lot, so hopefully we rest Burkhead this week. Martinez needs to do more running, and make his decisions quicker than he has been on when to leave the pocket! This is our last game for over a month so if he takes a pounding he will have some time to rest, this game will set the tone for a rivalry for many years to come, we must play well IMO to win. Huskers win a close one! Quote Link to comment
sd'sker Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Stop Coker, and have Dennard shut down McNutt. Game over THEY HAVE A GUY NAMED 'MCNUTT'?!? NOMG!!! LULZ!!1! Quote Link to comment
Caven Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Unfortunately, I agree with more of the Cy thoughts than the typical Iowa fan thoughts. Vandenburg is pretty accurate at home, but he still hasn't figure out how to not get rattled on the road. Coker will probably get his yards - he really is a bulldozer. On the flip side, Burkhead will get his yards as well for the same reason. I am a die hard Iowa fan, but the defense this year has just not gelled and is missing some of the talent we have had the past few years. If this game were in Iowa City I would like our chances, but one road win where we had 3 turnovers does not inspire my confidence that we have figured out how to play on the road.

spartyfan1718 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I feel this game is completely dependent on the pass rush NU is able to generate and the ability of the secondary to keep the Iowa passing game in check. If NU controls the passing game like they did against MSU then they win going away. Time will tell but my prediction is NU 24 Iowa 13 Quote Link to comment
donesman Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Do they have a mobile quarterback? No. Then we win. Seems to be the case this season... Quote Link to comment

Danimal Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Block. Tackle. Catch the f-cking ball when it is thrown to you. Hold on to it. Ya, catching and holding-on to the rock is a very big deal. We've had a string of drops over the last three games and fumbles have cost us dearly in two. Take care of the rock and NW is a win, Mich is a close loss. Who didn't put the damn ball on the turf Satuday? Scared as hell of the rock coming to Bell. If we catch, don't turn the rock over, and play just competent D we don't lose this game. Quote Link to comment

Blaze1up Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 We must have success with our 3rd down conversions. 3 out of 13 just isn't going to cut it. Quote Link to comment
Joe_5700 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 We must have success with our 3rd down conversions. 3 out of 13 just isn't going to cut it. That all depends if Iowa is going to make rag dolls out of our O-line like Michigan did... Quote Link to comment
