[JJ Husker]

I predict Nebraska struggles to run the ball and loses this game. 

 

[NebraskaHarry]

Yeah, I know.

 

[runningblind]

Like most games since 2014, I truly don't know what to expect with any reasonable certainty.

Better be able to run the ball.

Run early.  Run often.  Win the game.  Winning will go a long way in helping the Huskers to get over the mental hump they seem to be unable to climb over.  IIRC we haven't beat them in 3 years...And they pretty much kicked the sh!t out of us.

I'm hoping to see a rebound- emotionally healthy response to last week's game.  Time to build some emotional strength into the team and get rid of the losing mentality.

Rhule put it out there. Tonite we find out about this team and him as the HC.  Time to step up!
