Zaire Anderson to start at WILL this week

Not only did someone fake it, but someone who looks an awful lot like me posted the original here and acted as if he thought it was real.

 
I think that picture is hilarious, although, obviously exaggerated. Not sure how anyone could take that seriously. :confucius

Papuchis added NU has always lined up 6 inches off the ball, but they went to a foot because they thought it would help the DL read the gaps

A foot? I would like to see that ruler!

"But we also played 30 more plays than we would have three years ago, five years ago," Papuchis said because of those fast-tempo offenses.

Yeah, but the clock changes also reduced the number of plays, so it should be about even.
 
Hopefully Zaire brings some speed at the linebacker spot... but he ain't gonna help the D-line and their lack of push.

 
I would honestly be surprised to see a 3-4. I haven't heard any of the coaches say anything about switching to a 3-4, only a few posters on this board who have speculated about it.

If anybody has a quote/vid/audio clip of Bo, Papuchis, or any of the coaches saying anything about switching to a 3-4, I would love to hear it.
This isn't evidence that we are switching to it, but that it is in our back pocket. I can recall at least one time during UCLA and I think USM seeing us in a 3-4 look where they pulled either Merideth or Martin off the line and they became a 4th backer.
Bo was asked about it after practice this week sometime and mentioned possibly using it and having had practiced it. Said it's basically nothing new, kind of same thing we used against Misery couple years ago. It was on the husker radio show Sports Nightly where I heard it.

 
Whaley and Zaire both run a 4.6 40. He won't be bringing lightning speed to the field, but if he can wrap up behind the LOS I'll take it. Whaley could have 4-5 sacks right now.

 
Game speed vs. clocked speed. Maybe Anderson will have it and maybe he won't but look at Zac Lee. He was reported to run a 4.6 and there were reports that he smoked someone significant (can't remember who) in a footrace at practice before. He never looked like a 4.6 guy to me on Saturdays...

 
Good point. I just looked and Lavonte ran a 4.59 his senior year. Apparently it's not the best measurement for how a guy moves around the football field. Guess we'll find out tomorrow.
