B.B. Hemingway Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Glad to hear people mention Rex. I've been wondering if Pelini held him back last week so he'd be completely well against the stout Sparty defense. This will be the best defense we see. Tougher than big brother Meatchickens D was last Saturday. Especially considering it's a road game. Rex who? Blasphamy! Quote Link to comment
Fuzzy Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 From what i hear, Burkhead will not play today, Ameer will get the start. One thing that really worries me, our offense is pretty banged up, and we are going against a pretty stout defense. So I am praying that every Husker (offense and defense) comes away from this game without a serious injury. Dobson, we need you to keep those guys healthy week to week. Quote Link to comment

Indeed, and I am not sure why we would even allow Ameer to play with an injury. Its not like we don't have 3 good backs to feed the ball too as well. Heard, Cross and Janovich should be able to take care of business. I just hope if we do play Ameer, he is truly 100%. Not worth the risk in my opinion. Quote Link to comment
MT949597 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Twitter is blowing up that Ameer is suited up and out there warming up so we'll have to see if he still starts or they still give Braylon the nod if Ameer's really dinged up. Just don't like how the line has been moving on this game in the last 12 hours in MSU's favor, makes me think something is afoot. Also according to Sip, Ameer is taking handoffs and looking healthy, good news to hear. Quote Link to comment
tschu Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Rex not suited up per someone on twitter. Sam or Sip or someone, can't remember who Quote Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Supple just tweeted that Ameer is in warmups taking hand offs from Taylor and moving very well. Says no heavy tape job our wrap on the ankles. We'll see if that changes as we get closer to kick. Also Rex is not sitting up today, not a shocker Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I hope we can get out of this game with these guys being so banged up. Bell went out last week because it appeared he took a shot to the testicles.............never a fun shot in a football game or life for that matter. Heard has the most natural skills out of all the guys at running back and Cross is just a beast. We have the depth there, but if one more of those guys gets banged up we're in trouble! I just hope Martinez protects that ankle because if we lose him, say bye-bye to the season Husker fans. Quote Link to comment
HuskerShark Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 I honestly don't expect Rex back until the bowl game. If we could have him for the CCG (assuming we take care of business and get there) then I will be happy. He deserves one before he graduates. Quote Link to comment

Definately agree with this, I think he'll have a good chance to get back if we make it to the B1G championship. Would love to see him have a huge game on that level and then an additional huge game if we were to go to the Rose Bowl, but you never know what might happen. Quote Link to comment
Hammerhead Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I'm a little more worried about our WRs being healthy for this one. I get the feeling MSU will force us to pass a lot. Nothing against Abdullah, but I think we'd be alright with Heard and Cross in the backfield if it comes to that. Obviously I hope Abdullah's ready to go, but if it's not, I don't think there's any reason to risk getting him hurt worse. Quote Link to comment

I have no faith in him unless he proves it on the field..................practice means nothing and handing the ball off in clean-up duty means nothing. Quote Link to comment

Hayseed Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 That sucks....Abdullah is also our top kick returner and hurts us bigtime in that area. Let's hope it's not serious. Quote Link to comment
