TAKODA Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 If we play this game the way we played against Georgia in our bowl game last year, we will thump them by whatever Bo feels comfortable with. I am not trying to take anything away from Wyo and them having one of their better teams since (whenever) but I just don't see this being a nail biter and if it is, we had best change our outlook come UCLA and other games later in the year as well as our Win - Loss totals.

The King Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 They think they can come into Memorial and beat us? They are in for a rude awakening. At the very least, our defense will be above average (barring injuries) this yea - and probably elite in the secondary. Have fun throwing the ball around on us. I'd bet we put up at least 55 on them.

EZ-E Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I read someone actually quote a stat that we were 8th best rushing the ball last year, they were 118th at stopping the run, but the strength of their defense matches up with the strength of our offense. Wow. Quote Link to comment

Guy Chamberlin Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Remember that when Wyoming players come down to our lower elevation, they turn into oxygen-engorged supermen. 2 Quote Link to comment
mrandyk Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Win totals for the teams Wyoming beat last year: 4, 4 (2 against FCS teams), 2, and 1.They lost to Cal Poly at home last year, beat no one remotely respectable, and are suddenly going to be good enough to win at Nebraska. Must be the intensity of the rivalry that pushes them over the top. Quote Link to comment
The King Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Yeah, Taylor that sh#t talker. Just said "Wyoming may play for the national championship" Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 by YankPoke » Sun Aug 25, 2013 12:47 pm Without those brown and gold blinders on, I think that the poke offense will definately score on a mediocre Husker d, but the Huskers pull away in the fourth for a 38-31 victory. With the goggles on, the Huskers d gets shredded early and Wyo pulls out to a 21 point lead in the first quarter, only to slow down and have the Huskers come back and make it a close 35-31 Wyo victory. Yeah, we could pull away and win by 7 or they could keep it close and lose by four. They do realize we aren't playing futbol, right? Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted August 26, 2013 Author Share Posted August 26, 2013 The funny thing is, they keep bringing up Wisconsin to justify why they think they're going to beat the spread or even win. I don't think some of them realize that they aren't Wisconsin. Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 They are just trying to get people excited about the game. Even Custer had to get his troops pumped up before the attack at Little Big Horn. Quote Link to comment

Possibly Knapplc; however I suspect they are thinking that "this" Nebraska Team is not one of those from the golden years or at least are hoping it's not! Quote Link to comment

teachercd Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I think only Nebraska fans predict themselves to lose when they play better teams. We tend to be the finest at being self loathing! 3 Quote Link to comment
