lo country Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 So they say we have a chance? The whole, oh they are out for blood after getting embarrassed by Purdue/Urban's health/whatever will motivate them for the first series or two. Then it comes down to football and desire. I think we make this game much closer than people think. Maybe even a November surprise. IIRC, most on this board predicted one win that was a surprise. We have three left. OSU, MSU and Iowa. Might as well start with OSU. Quote Link to comment

But I seriously think if we can weather the initial storm and make some thunder of our own to counter right away, we have a puncher's chance of winning this game. Quote Link to comment

If we can get through the first series or 2, we stand a chance. I'd like to get them on their heels with a quick score or 2 and have them start thinking, here comes Purdue again.....Our guys (and Frost ) have a lot more confidence going into this one. This alone bodes well. I added MSU from the pre-season hype and the fact they are one of the "better" teams in the B1G. I totally agree we have had their number for quite a while. I still liked the Bo (2011?) stand up DL that gave them fits all game. Quote Link to comment

Who knows, maybe OSU will commit many fumbles or interceptions? One can dream, right? Several years ago we came back from what looked like a blowout against OSU. I'm thinking of that Iowa State game many years ago....we must have lost 8 turnovers and couldn't get out of our own way. It could happen! Or we could get whipped to. Quote Link to comment
olddominionhusker Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I got 21.5 on Monday from a Buckeye fan. I like my odds 1 Quote Link to comment
xlbder Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I think the huskers will put 35 point on Ohio State. But I doubt that will be enough to win. Quote Link to comment
Undone Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 It's interesting to me that none of the pundits above that predicted the actual score didn't have Ohio State cracking 50. Quote Link to comment

Unfortunately Joe Bauserman is out of eligibility. I'd like the chances a lot better with him subbing in for Haskins. Quote Link to comment
