WKU game

[billdozer15]

If we score any less than 50 points I will not be satisfied. If our defense gives up more than 10 points I will not be satisfied. My prediction 52-3.

63-3

Nebraska scores 42 in the first half, and uses back ups in the second. WKU finally scores a Field Goal to end the game against the 3rd String defense.

+ The Blackshirts hold WKU to under 100 total yards.

I'm going to say the defense has a "let down" which leads to a week of heated discussions on the board.

We should win by 7 TDs and run for 400 yards :koolaid2:

I'm guessing it's more like 63-10. We may even pitch a shutout.

:yeah

No way a redshirt freshman led Western Kentucky team that went 0-12 last year scores more points on us than three Sun Belt teams combined, even if our starters are out by the end of the third.

66-14

Hard not to run up the score when your 3rd string QB is also competing for the starter spot. Also, the Blackshirts give up a couple TD's before adjusting to Western Kentucky's new coaching staff.

Good point. This could get excessive.

Personnel, coaching, strategy, confidence....mismatch city.

NU 8x7 TD's = 56 + 1 FG = 59 points.

WKU 1 FG = 3 points.

59 to 3. And that's the facts, jack!!!

This team is going to try to win the defensive scoring title again. Don't be surprised if they have a chance to shut them out, they will not give in.

I'm sticking by my prediction. I think we'll have the usual first game miscues and turnovers which will result in some extra points for WKU. And switching among 3 QB's won't help with a new center leading to some exchange problems. Plus, I think our defense will have some issues early this season, but should get on track during the Washington game.

45-7

someone gets burned deep going for a pick.

watson focuses on controlling the ball, so 60+ points is a fantasy imho.

time of possession will be ridiculously in our favor, like 40-20.

 

[Scratchtown]

if we don't score 60, i'll be somewhat disappointed. We shouldn't have to punt at all.

that said

the defense better not give up more than 7.
