Forget wet, worry about lightning.

 

Delaying the game a few weeks would probably be to our advantage.

No delay required- This game is a win/win for Nebraska - no matter the outcome.  We aren't supposed to even be competitive according to the national narrative.  Nobody thinks we can win so if we lose, no big deal to anyone outside of Nebraska.  If we are competitive or even find a way to win, we start to change national perception.  OSU on the other hand has everything to lose and nothing really to gain.  If they beat us by any less than the spread, it's a bad look for them.

That's my feelings exactly.

Nebraska has absolutely nothing to lose on Saturday....and everything to gain.

We can't kick Field Goals, dampness hurts us.

Not really, we weren't gonna make any either way

It might really help our program if the game gets canceled.

How? Everyone expects us to be blown out so if that happens everyone just looks and says yup, but if we make it competitive or win it is a huge boost to the program.

When you are trying to win a NC every single year, every single game is high stakes. They do have something to gain every week no matter the opponent. It is just some times you gain more against certain teams.

Posts like this are why we need the eye roll back

Instilling confidence into one of our lowly kickers won't be achieved in the rain.

We call timeout to attempt a game winning field goal, when Nebraska calls timeout and from the North Stadium gates out comes Barrett Pickering!!! He makes the fg and the rest is history.

I can hear Good Ol' JR right now: "Bah gawd that's Barrett Pickering's music!"

Ugh, OK. Does Wisky have something to do with the possible wet conditions on gameday this Saturday? Not asking to be mean… I’ve always liked you Mr. David Carr (I’m also a Fresno State fan).

Maybe lightning and a cancellation?

 

I’d take the season without playing them right now.
