The Maudfather Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Did a few of these threads last year, but hoping to make this a regular weekly thing on huskerboard. Myself, I am taking us to cover and I am also taking the over. I think our offense is going to come out firing and I wouldn't be surprised to see a defensive TD, as well as a Jamal Turner punt return to the house. I envision a score in the neighborhood of 52-17.

Blackshirts007 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Defense comes out and surprises some people, but Wyoming has a veteran QB so they will score a couple. Nebraska 56 Wyoming-17 Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Defense comes out and surprises some people, but Wyoming has a veteran QB so they will score a couple. Nebraska 56 Wyoming-17 Beat me to it. I also am thinking 56-17. Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I dont think we'll beat them by 28. Bo always calls off the dogs Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I think this thing gets well under control early. Very few-if any-starters will play deep into the 2nd half. Top defense gives up some points early-7 to 10ish-then then 2nds and 3rds will give up a score or two later on when the games already decided. The offense will get very simple and slow down in the later stages as well. They'll be some pleasant surprise on D but will also be some talking points of concern as well. We'll probably end up being very pleased with the fact that the defense gets one more tune up before UCLA. 49-24 Big Red. Quote Link to comment
tmfr15 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Bo does usually call off the dogs, but I think he lets them run more since its the opener. I think 56-21 sounds about right or 56-17. Quote Link to comment
Branno Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Taking NEB at -28 but going under on 61. I think somewhere around 48-9 Huskers. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I think we can score more than negative 28 points against them. Quote Link to comment
Ulty Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I try to consider myself a "realist," but for this sort of game, the Kool-Aid takes over and I visualize something like a 63-0 game. Huskers to cover and the over! I also think we're gonna roll UCLA, but I thought the same thing last year as well. Quote Link to comment

I have a feeling our top defense is going to be playing well into the 4th quarter during these early games. The team is too young not to give them the needed reps. Only way they get yanked is if depth is a concern and he's worried about injury. Quote Link to comment
IllinoisHuskerFan Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Ill take the big number. I thing Wyoming is walking into a bad spot. Opener on the road, at Nebraska at night, no way they stop us or barely slow us down. We roll. I will add that I been slamming the Koop-aid for a solid week already though... Huskers 55 Cowboys. 17 Quote Link to comment

Only way they get yanked is if depth is a concern and he's worried about injury. Probably so. But I'll expand on my "in control early" thought. I'm talking 21-0 after one. And 35-42ish at halftime. I really believe the offense is that ready to run. I agree the defense could be playing into the 4th, but probably not well into it if that is the case. I also forgot to add the we're gonna see Newby and/or Taylor do something that is going to give HuskerNation a collective hard-on. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Nebraska -28 Over 61 NU- 49 Wyoming- 21 So you're going push on the spread? That wasn't an option, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment
