kchusker_chris Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Was reading an article and they were talking about some of the things that plague Nebraska every season. Which do you think will go away, which are here to stay? On the opposite side of that (so this doesn't end up 100% downer topic), do you expect anything exciting and spectacular this season? #boredatwork Quote Link to comment
hskrfan4life Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I chose turnover induced loss and blow out loss. Also signature win, heisman representation, Indy trip, and 11+ wins Quote Link to comment
Abdullah the Butcher Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 All of the above on plagues. Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Injuries and a turnover loss. Injury bug has already started and I think we will see an improvement but still drop a game from 2-3 turnovers Old Blackshirts and 11 wins. Talent is in place and they sound fairly focused on the process, should lead to at least one extra win from standard we're used to. Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 already lost some guys on D.......not sure our D has the depth to sustain a whole season.....we shall see. getting gashed by the run is heart breaking way to lose. Quote Link to comment

I'm not sure we'll have as many issues w/ the run assuming we don't lose any more guys to injuries. We had a pretty mediocre front 4 last year (obviously not including Gregory) and the LBers were clueless most of the first half of the season. We lost Rose but we get back Zaire which is a pretty good trade. VV should be much farther along, Gregory another year better and all the guys we were rotating early trying to figure things out have solidified their spot. Moss came on late, but I expect us to figure that out. Besides, with Gregory on one side we can cheat a LBer over there to help out. My only concern is that Bo goes back to that "patty cake" defense that we saw early last season (and see for periods of the season most years). We're going to need to put some hellish pressure on the QB because our secondary can't be left on an island long. https://twitter.com/swmckewonOWH/status/379059400423383040/photo/1 Quote Link to comment

irafreak Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I'm actually shocked that game riddled with penalties wasn't 100%. I mean this is a given. Seven years of multiple "groan, oh my god penalty-fest games each season and suddenly we're going to have a season without one of these? Quote Link to comment
