Official Prediction Thread (Yikes)

I don't really have a score prediction, but I do have the Huskers +11.5
the thing I am really interested to see tomorrow is if our luck changes at all - doesn't mean we win but the ball never seemed to bounce our way (so to speak) under the previous coach

OU - 52
NE - 31
Im pumped to see what Joseph can do the rest of the year, but six days is not enough to make a difference. Hope I’m wrong

It is so true, it has to start to even out.
I took OU though, I still think NU gets up early.
OU 56
NU 10
I wish Mickey had an easier game for his opener but this one gets ugly fast. You can't fix stupid in five days. And Chinander is still the coordinator. I also see us giving up a ton of sacks for poor Thompson. OU has some tremendous rushers.

Thats one thing that bugged me every time. Every perfect bounce on a punt. Or perfect tip. Every finger tip catch.
52-41 bad guys. Close, but no cigar. More indictive on Chins than Mickey. Chins gets canned and we find ourselves in the bye week.
The last game we won the turnover battle and had two calls overturned that went our way. We didn't lose that game because the ball didn't bounce our way.
With all the hope and kool aid I can muster, I just don’t feel good about it:
Oklahoma- 38
Nebraska- 13
Oklahoma- 38
Nebraska- 13
Ditto; Nebraska 31, Okie 28. They cough it up on our 3 yard line with 10 seconds left in the game.
the kid playing QB for OU has never seen anything even close to what he'll see in Memorial Stadium on Saturday

Hard to picture our defense getting many stops.
Hard to picture our OL holding up enough to sustain drives.
So…
1. How are we gonna get D off the field (without points)?
2. How are we gonna sustain drives if our OL is playing their toughest matchup yet?
3. Will Vokolek or Henrich play? If they play, how limited are they?
Bushini may be our best weapon in this one. Flip the field and give Defense a chance.

It's gonna be rough... if we are to have any chance the O needs to force another shootout. Unfortunately...
