They might be 3-0, but Nebraska's been here before

It's been a fun start to the season for Nebraska football, but it's not lost on the team that they were in this same spot last year before ending the regular season 1-5 while barely making a bowl game. That's why it's easy for them to not be happy just yet: https://www.si.com/college/nebraska...they-want-to-be-nebraska-cornhuskers-football
I'm very nervous for this game. There is so much our team needs to prove this Saturday.

Can our O line continue to be good?
Can our defense defend their rushing attack?
Can our passing attack continue to be dynamic against a much better opponent?
Will our punting and punt coverage be good even though they have only done it 4 times all season with a punter that has never played football before?

Yes, we have been here before. We just need to prove we are this good to the rest of the world.

Can we stop a mobile QB from running around our rush and through our lines. - one of my biggest concerns besides can we establish the run game on our side of the ball.

This is my biggest concern. It just doesn't seem like they have the size in the middle to stop the run.

But our defense isn't built on size. It's built on quickness and gap discipline with the linebackers. Michigan will gain yards you just hope their qb BU doesn't have a field day running up and down the field against us.
