I just really hope they both have a really good fall camp. And...yes....a much improved O line would go a long ways to keeping the starter healthy. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yes, but I don't remember in any of those years having two QBs on the roster with the ability to lead the team. We always just had one....maybe. 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm trying to remember - does Sims have 1, 2 or 3 years of eligibility left? If both QBs are healthy, it would be great to see Casey get the start but also use Sims as he is a much better runner. I hope the OL is better than what we've seen in the past. If Teddy can be healthy for a full season, that in itself would be an improvement. I know Rhule has been trying to pump the OL full of encouraging words - I hope it pays off. Quote Link to comment

I hope Casey and Sims see the field quite a bit this year. If there's one thing for certain in the B1G it's that you need s competent 2nd QB, because you're starter is never going to make it through the full season healthy, especially if you run him. 1 Quote Link to comment

He's got this coming 2023 season and then 2024. Sims threw the ball better than what I thought he was capable of in the spring game. He didn't do a lot, but he was fine. I'm still skeptical of what he looks like when it's 3rd & 6 and we dial up a designed passing play. Maybe our run blocking will finally be better and we'll be in more 3rd & shorts than we've seen in the recent past but I'm not holding my breath on that at all. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yes we do, but it's with fun and respect Ok, seeing that I am a good sport, I will take your friendly Bob Wager Although, it shouldn't be for a full year since they play 3 months of games. Can I make a suggestion? Since we both are Husker fans and not crazy people, the Iowa avatar ends after the Wisconsin game. I just cannot stomach neither of us having that avatar during the Iowa week lol 2 1 Quote Link to comment
