HOLD UP........

[Armistead]

The Tigers...went 4-4 last year in the big12....losing to OU...NU...and aTm

they lost their best defensive players and they a little help on the O-line....they also lost Woods their backup RB.....but somehow this team is now a powerhouse?

Tiger will need to score on big passing plays....cuz they are the worst running team we will see all year....Temple would not start for ANY of the teams we played this year and that my friends is a fact.....this is a finnesse team that lacks the mobile QB that makes the spread offense dangerous....

The Tigers have only played one decent team(ILL) and that was the first game of the year....they could not run...and were fortunate that Juice Williams was knocked outta they game or the Tigers would have easily lost that game..........

I know that Ball St. and SC rolled up same huge numbers...but I still like Assante, Octavien , Turner and SUH......Ruud and McKeon need to step up and Zach Potter will also have to have a decent game....but this opponent is tailor made for the Huskers ....They got NO running game......Daniels will not break big runs off....and the Duo of Macklin and Franklin are good but the lack of a running game allows the Huskers to play different coverages and mix in the blitz............

Now lets talk about the basics of Football

You have got too run the ball too win....period.....the team that runs the ball ,wins this game....Hell , you will win all your games if you run the ball better than the other team.....Nebraska will run the ball better than the Tigers....the Huskers have decent recievers and they have a big O-line that will give Keller plenty of time to hit them with the play action passes.....The Huskers O-line's ability to control the Tigers will be the Key to this game....not Daniels or Temple or any other crack headed scheme the Tigers come up with...We need to play sound special teams...run the ball and keep the Tigers from making too many big plays....the Tigers will score ....but this game will not gett into the high 30's as most people expect....

Huskers take the Air outta the ball and return to basics...blocking ...Tackling and taking care of the ball

NU 29

MU 21.....and it's not as close as the score will look.....Just remember we have been plaing BCS teams...Bowl Teams......Conference champs........and we are 4-1

Great point. Ball control is going to win this game for the huskers. Daniels cant throw TDs if he doesn't have the ball.

I fear a track meet..

Turnovers and field position will be key.

Special teams as well.

are you drinking heavily before the game again Armi?? when the hell did Ball State and Nevada become BCS teams? even Iowa Sate for that matter?? and Chase will need to be contained, he can and will run all over us, if given the chance. our O line? the reason the running game sucks is they can't run block, all we have now is finesse pass blockers.

you can be excited about our chances, but at least get it right!

This is a small point, but just to clarify, we didn't lose Marcus Woods. He is still one of our backup running backs. He has had some carries this year. I am not exactly sure where he is on the depth chart. We have 3 backs that receive somewhat equal time after Temple. Woods had some fumbling issues last year that limited the playing time he got. So far in the few carries he has had this year, he has seem improved.

 

[nepolo7]

I remember the 05 team that got better and better each game. Hopefully it happens in 07 just on a quicker pace.

Nevada last year won thier conference and lets face it, Ball St is good period. You don't just put up 40 points on the road, even if the opposing defense is that bad.

Our Defense did a good job at stopping the run against Iowa St, that's a good start. MU can't stop a thing. Lucky, Glenn, and Castile will be run all over the Tiger Defense. Keller and Co. will have a great day with at least 3 TD's.

If the Defense can stop the run, the game is ours. Daniels will throw too many times and get two interceptions in the process.

Kudo's to Missouri on the win over Illinois and help our conference's power rankings that get factored into the BCS formula.

Illinois is a good team...ie beating Penn St. and favored to beat Wisconsin tomorrow by Vegas oddsmakers.

But IMHO, they were fortunate to win due to their D being in the right place at the right time. A fumble return for a td when the Illini were in the red zone and a late interception sealed the win.

That is why we let the kids play the game on the field.

 

[BIGREDIOWAN]

I hope we do run the ball alot that way we can keep their offense and our defense off the field. That's the best thing we could do in this game is control the clock. If we control the clock and run the ball well this game is ours.

 

[Armistead]

uh.................last time I checked Wake and SC are both BCS Bowlteams....Mizzou has played NONE

I am not drinking but I will be at Faurot and I will be hittin it pretty hard

do have extra ticks for a price

well i don't have the break down, but giving them 28 first downs is just plain embarassing. nobody at home on the defense.
