Redux Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Yup, we're gonna make a game of it from the sound of things. Bet accordingly. Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 As far as odds against Michigan go, let's keep in mind that Martinez was supposed to have three games under his belt at this point, but instead has less than one full game of experience right now. Even if he's physically healthy on Saturday, there's no replacement for experience. 3 Quote Link to comment

Should Bunch end up starting, it doesn't throw Michigan off at all. If Martinez starts and struggles -- which could happen even if he's healthy -- it's the Huskers who take the psychological hit. If Bunch starts and struggles, we understand because he's the third-string walk-on. If Martinez starts and thrives, I'll buy everyone pancakes. But I think Frost's answer was both honest and diplomatic. It's a tough call but it sounds like he'd prefer to protect Martinez another week. I think he starts and plays the whole game. I like Aunt Jemima syrup with my cakes please. 3 Quote Link to comment

InOmaha Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I think the emergency scenario that gets him in the game is going to be kickoff. They'll need him after kickoff. 4 3 Quote Link to comment
MyBloodIsRed16 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 If I'm Frost at the podium I just tell everyone AM isn't going to play then under my breath say soccer. Thay way I wont he lying 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 By "pancakes" of course I mean Pancake Blocks: violent knockdowns from huge offensive linemen. Sorry if there was any confusion. Quote Link to comment
broganreynik Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Having Martinez practice all week but starting Bunch because AM isn’t ready seems counterintuitive to me. It not only opens the possibility to further injury, but it inhibits Bunch’s growth with the offense. Quote Link to comment

Sorry if there was any confusion. Still think Aunt Jemima syrup is apropos (I'll let you guess if that is meant in any sexual context) Quote Link to comment

Unless 2AM is ready to play I mean there is always the possibility of injury for any player on the field. If 2AM is ready to go that would inherently mean he is no more prone to injury than anyone else. And, if we don't play him in that situation, it would be like telling all the other players and fans and opponent that we don't really want to win this game. Quote Link to comment
