JJ Husker Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 A must win for a chance at the CCG and making it over an obtainable hump? Yes. A must win to prevent another HB meltdown? Yes. A must not get blown out? Absolutely, every week that is the case (at least until Bama is on our schedule) A must win, if we still play well, don't turnover the ball, and don't have a plethora of embarrassing moments on national TV? No. Quote Link to comment
hskerprid Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 We have a lot to lose, I believe more than Michigan. Not only do we need this win for our trip to the Big 10 Championship, but we need this win to boost our morality up, and to help our recruiting. For those kids that are on the fence, this could be that game to help sway their decision. This game I also believe is important to Pelini's career, to show the media, that he can win more than mediocre games, even though I believe Michigan is mediocre. Is our team "Morality" in question now too? Oh the Humanity!! Quote Link to comment

Landlord Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Didn't read through the thread, but no; there is no such thing as a must-win game. If we lose, life will go on Sunday Quote Link to comment
Redmusky Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 BO said we must win out so it's a must win game. Quote Link to comment
Vizsla1 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Yes- and Bo told me so. It is another national tv game- so let's show up and win it in style. Quote Link to comment
MLB 51 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 IMO. They are all must win from here on out. This game is probably the most important though. This is another huge recruiting weekend for us. Quote Link to comment
ladyhawke Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I read in the OWH this evening that the Huskers have been prepping for this game since the spring. It will be interesting to see if all that preparation pays off. http://www.omaha.com/article/20121023/HUSKERS/710239871/1002#notes-nu-prepping-vs-3rd-down-pass-defense Is this a must win? Aren't they all? (1 down 5 to go!) Quote Link to comment

Yes indeed...watching the language on this board..and the insinuations...we definitely could use a boost to our morality.... (Sorry Husker NationNick...I'm normally not one to fall in with the grammar police...this just cracked me up) Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Yes. Lose and we are out of the hunt for the B1G and the Rose Bowl. It will also get a lot more ugly for Bo and Co in a loss and leave more questions than answers about the direction of the program. I am not even going to fall into the "moral victory" if we lose in a close one. Initially, against NW a close loss would be improvement, but have sense decided we are Nebraska and need to start acting/playing like it. Losing is losing. no silver lining in that. We need to win IMO, plain and simple. Quote Link to comment
grandpasknee Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Yes it is....for Michigan. I see a future where we have a great game, we pull out some previously unseen wrinkles on offense and we have a defensive scheme that actually works against D Robinson. It is our turn around game..and after the loss...Michigan's house of cards unfolds...others see what we did to beat them and UM loses three more games to end the year. So yes...it is a must win for them. Quote Link to comment
Husker no ka oi Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Thanks for wasting bandwidth on such a silly question. Quote Link to comment
averyator Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Absolutely yes! Quote Link to comment
RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Gotta win this weekend and then root for tOSU in their game against Michigan. Then beat Iowa and go to Indy! Quote Link to comment
