C-4 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 We need all the help we can get versus Ohio State on the big stage. So any guys who are redshirting but have potential to help... this is the time to bring them in. Is Green’s conditioning to par? How will he look? Any special packages featuring Luke? Lord knows we could use his speed at QB. Or is that too much to ask of a true Freshman? Pola-Gates? Hickman? Ty Robinson? Etc. Quote Link to comment
grandpasknee Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I'd like to see Halex Enery play kicker next week! 1 3 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Nobody who hasn’t played major minutes is going to step in and be the hero next week unless there is a major injury. The staff isnt keeping some guy guy on the bench just so he can be put in against OSU to surprise everyone. 2 Quote Link to comment

No one is expecting a redshirt hero, but it’s plenty reasonable to believe Green in specific was kept for our four biggest games (including Oh St). That was the major consensus before the season starting among Nebraska’s reporters. Quote Link to comment

Apsu Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 We may see a two quarterback formation, with AM lining up as a back. Quote Link to comment
Nebfanatic Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Maybe Rahmir Johnson gets some touches, but only if he is ready for that, not because we are trying to catch OSU off guard. Quote Link to comment
Hayseed Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I doubt we'll see ANY new guys who we haven't seen already. Teams that play rookies are much more likely to make mistakes and we need to cut out that part of our repertoire. I was really impressed with the backup RBs who came in though...thought they did a bang up job. I hope we play Adrian Martinez' twin brother, the one who played in the second half.....he was great! We need to see a lot more of him. 2 Quote Link to comment

Jason Sitoke Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 We will see the 3rd stringers play an entire quarter. I won’t get into the why. 2 Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I'm definitely ready to see someone other than Mills as the #2 RB. 1 Quote Link to comment
