** 2021 Opponent Previews : Buffalo (Game 3) **

[Dogs In A Pile]

I see the line opened at NU -11. I guessing it will move down similar to Illinois.

 

Should be an interesting game. Could go a long way in boosting the team's confidence for OU the following week. On the other hand, a loss would be a second devastating blow and would likely mean a 1-3 start which would make it extremely difficult to make it to a bowl.

 

DVR set.

I've been going to husker games for 25 years.  I've never attended a loss.  Some close games through the years but I have been lucky.  Hoping the trend continues Saturday!  

 

My call-. NU 34 - BU 24

You are lucky,  holy cow.  How many games would you estimate you've been to? 

 

I did the math once for myself and have been to 20 something losses out of 50 some total attended.  Went to 2 in the 90s and the rest since 2003.

We’re going to need you to go to the Iowa game too.

Most years only one game but some years as many as 3.  Maybe 35?

 

I was supposed to attend 2 different games that we ended up losing but had work keep me from going.

An actual depth chart was released this week. Would be nice to see Manning, Toure, & Martin w/rotations from Betts & Brown. Falck is also serviceable. I feel more comfy after getting Stepp & some WRs in a rhythm.

I feel like I’ve been that guy for two weeks now but these dudes are seriously deluded if they think Brody Belt & Wyatt Liewer are better than Will Nixon/Alante Brown, & Omar Manning.

The only time I saw Belt in was as punt returner after CTB’s screw up and mop up duty.

He’s logged some snaps in the last two games. Belt fumbled a PR & almost had one touch his leg. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt in the regard that I don’t think he was well prepared for that scenario by the coaching staff. 
 

In the transfer portal era playing dispensable walk-ons over young, scholarship players is going to lead to an uptick of transfers for seemingly no reason.

Then the scholarship players need to work harder.

They play better. End result is all that matters.
