On To Indy and Wisconsin Part 2

Branno

Branno

All-Conference
Our Huskers overcame the weather, and a tougher Iowa team than was expected to clinch a trip to Indy.

We have a very healthy Rex back, a defense that can shut a team down, and a running game that can get yards when it has to.

I feel good about our chances next week. Let go Big Red

 
I think what Rex showed was the most important development I saw today. I have been of the opinion that Ameer has looked a bit weary lately, not as explosive. Heard is playing well also. I really enjoyed watching Rex carrying the team on his shoulders and back, literally.

 
I think Beck put a lot of things back in his pocket today for next week. Really conservative plan. Just get the win and get out. Wind played a factor in this as well. You can bet we will see things next week we havent seen before. I know we'll be ready.

 
Personally I think we should play a lot of diamond formation when we are on offense. Throw some passes to the flat. Wheel routes. Boots, Reverse. Wisconsin is vulnerable on the edges. Toss sweeps. Play action deep. Take note of the PSU game to see how the their drag/crossing routes work. If they work do some of those. Need to start out fast and put Wisconsin behind so they want to throw more if we can get them to do that.

Defensively I am not feeling that great. They have their line going pretty good and we lost Baker. They went back to their old blocking schemes so we will have to do things a little differently. Maybe slant our line sometimes. We need to play our bigger corners. Bigger DT's. Put a safety over the top on Abberdarius. Do some blitzing on 3rd & longs.

The "Bone" is only effective when ran a handful of times at most in the game. Anything more than that will make it severely ineffective. It's meant to catch teams off-guard and it more a momentum gainer. That said, we need to hit them on the perimeter with our speed. May need to start inside our though because they will be waiting for it.

Defensively we all know Wiscy is gonna try to run it down our throat and probably more so with Baker out. That said Wiscy will still do a lot of shifting and presnap motion, so discipline will be key. We also need to win 1st down. If we can put pressure on them by scoring, then their clock eating style will work against them.
