I just hope the defense that they have been working on since August for these next two games works better than the failed Mizzou defensive game plan in '08.
Seriously people you are almost living in a shell if you do not expect to see something different this Saturday. My concern is a lot like knapp's though, the base defense hasn't exactly been on lockdown like Alcatraz.
Personally, i think a front of Stache, Baker, TMoore and Crick would be a huge asset and serious threat.
That game had far more to do with Chase Daniel, Chase Coffman, T-Rucker, Tommy Saunders and Tony Temple starting their 33rd consecutive game and future NFL wideouts Jeremy Maclin and Danarius Alexander starting their 16th consecutive game. Meanwhile guys like Prince Amukamara and Eric Haag and Matt O'Hanlan were making their 4th career starts. Armando Murillo was overmatched athletically, and walk ons like Matt Holt and Lance Thorell saw their first action ever. The only guys with any experience that day were Larry Asante and Murillo, neither of whom was very good in coverage.
The scheme had little to do with that game. The Huskers were overmatched from the first snap. In fact, the defensive improvement that team made throughout the season was nothing short of amazing. Its not about X's and O's its Billys and Joes. When the Billys and Joes can match up, then scheme can make the difference.
