Call Your Shot

[HuskerinPA_rivals497023]

For a prediction though I'll go with:

Nebraska 35
Minnesota 31

Minnesota isn’t good. If you’re going by scores, then Maryland and Iowa are better than Ohio State. I think the outcome of that game had more to do with OSU than Minnesota. The Buckeyes had issues with Indiana simply because they couldn’t turn drives into TD’s. A lot of settling for FGs.

I’m putting Nebraska in my parlay this week at -4. Minnesota won’t be keeping with with Nebraska’s scoring.

Love the confidence and I hope you're right. The problem is, even if we're favored to win by 17 (hypothetically speaking), we'll find a way to forfeit at least 21 points in turnovers and penalties. I believe NU is last or near last in both categories.

If we don't cut down on those substantially, and I haven't seen anything that suggests we're even trending in the right direction, then we'll need the offense to hit the 40 mark just to compensate for the Keystone Cops moments.

Score of the game and something B1G that happens during the game.

NU 38-17 - Maurice Washington with 100 yds & 1 run over 40.

Gifford has 10 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, a sack and an interception.

Yep, the offense and special teams are ineffeficient and the defense is a liability.

NU-28
MN-24

Defense has 4 sacks, 2 picks and partridge in a pear tree TD!!!

Nebraska kicks a 55 yard last second field goal, & the Huskers remember what it feels like to win again.

 

[HuskAir]

Minn 35
NU 31

Mo Wash has an electric kick return.

Huskers 34-24. Refs 11- Huskers O. Neal scores a TD on an Int.

Do I win a prize for having the 25 point winning margin? After finally getting to watch a game in person, Neal is a liability at safety IMO. I was not impressed with his play. Granted I didn't watch him every single play but man there were times where he took himself out of plays and didn't get over to help on other plays that it appeared he should have. Time and time again, I would ask where the hell is our safety and then I would see his number and it would be Neal that didn't get there.

Let’s just say the hype doesn’t match the performance on the field.

I'm not sure his knowledge of the D has helped as much as some thought it would and I'm not sure he's any better at being in the right spot than our other guys are.

I’m going to have to disagree. After rewatching the game again he was the reason we were doing so well on defense the first half, jmo. He had a couple good stops and almost had a pick. To me he looked like at least in the first half, he was in pretty good position.

Jah Broni has PLENTY knowledge of the D.
