Comish Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 For the first time in the BiG, the conference schedule starts out favorably for us with early home games. (too bad we're not at full strength) We MUST take advantage and get off to a great start. It's early, but this is the most important game of the season so far...... Quote Link to comment

Exactly. we have an advantage when playing at home. Need to win these games. Get enough wins early to help out. Should be a fun game. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Indiana is sooooo streaky...this is a game that the Huskers really need to win. Lord knows you can't let easy ones slip away like the Illini did yesterday Quote Link to comment
Vizsla1 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Headed down early for some grub and suds. We should take this one from Indiana. I would like to see Walt throw in at least 13. Limit the turn-overs and we are gold. Quote Link to comment

Brian Rosenthal @HuskerExtraBR now Leslee Smith just smiled at me big and shook his head. Don't look for him to play. But the fact he's in uniform is a good sign. Quote Link to comment
