Two toughest games (Illinois/Northwestern) are in Lincoln, and the Husker offense should dominate these defenses.

Offense upside capability.

Wade Williams

I just think the offense is good enough to win those games based on what I have seen from those other teams. Let's face it, the B1G just isn't very good at all so it's no great accomplishment!

Joshua Spencer

just optimism.

Tim Peterson

I have not been overly impressed by the other B10 teams.... Does OSU really frighten anyone? Nebrascal

John Cornett

I'm hoping the bye week and entering Big Ten play with help settle the young defense in a little bit and the offense takes care of business

Keith Petrie

I voted that way because when they run up against adversity they tend to do what is needed at least for the season... maybe not the playoff or the bowl but the season. GBR!

Harold Peterson

offence

Brad Cromer

Bo will fix D.

Jeff Salts Jr.

Because we should be!

RedRush Redalfran

when the going gets tough, BigRed will get tougher!

Michael Peters

If they can make it to the Northwestern game undefeated in BIG 10 play that means they fixed a lot of their problems. if not... they will not win another game after Northwestern. & Bo will be gone.

Mark Plotner

Maybe right on loose the rest of their games, but I still think they will beat Michigan St.

Too many questions...Illinois/Purdue hung with ranked opponents this season, and Minnesota/Northwestern will be battle tested on the schedule.

With our Cosgrove like defense, there's only one way to vote on this!

Ronald D. Bull

Northwestern/Michgan State one of these will win if defense dose not show up.

Shawn Koke

because of the pink skirts

Keith Rayman

uneasy about mental state of team

Scott Dreas

Huskers are too young on defense this year to go undefeated until Michigan game

David Zacharia

Defense has two many holes Offense disappears when game is on the line Adjustments are terrible or non-existence at halftime

Brian Frahm

Too many holes on defense at this point.

Lance Ridpath

NW still too disciplined and mobile for this crew.

Matt Shalberg

Terrible defense and offense can't score points.

Mark Plotner

Like most, I don't think we beat Northwestern. if we do, our D is gonna have to show up at least enough to slow them down. Then it will be how well our Offense actually executes

Phillip Tournor

Our defense is so bad, Illinois wlll run through us, and Northwestern will run us out of memorial stadium. I do think we will loose to Purdue or Minnesota on the road.

Jeff McCauley

As much as it pains me to think it, I suspect Northwestern will rape the Husker defense without pause.

Bart Burroughs

don't trust that Bo can get the defense fixed.

Joshua Howard

We need a Defense to win games.

Anything that can get the players excited and more focused plus get the crowd intensity to rise is good for the huskers. If all black uniforms, like the Famed Blackshirt defense of old lights a fire by all means do it. To upset the Trojans will take a superb almost mistake free effort cause their up

Ron Graf

I absolutely agree with Joe

Joe Putjenter

I’m hoping the emotional, hype, and excitement continues through the entire game. No let downs.

Rick Distefano

We will finally come to play with 50 visitors watching and could mean a few commits early.

N A

It could, it will ramp up the fans and students and make for a very loud atmosphere which could provide us with some helpful USC offensive penalities.

Joe Nigro

Can't hurt

George mcdaniel

It will be just like colorado but better and nebraska will win 27 to 24 my prediction

Bob Flanagan

Yes it will … But emotion only goes so far … thry still have to perform and execute at a high level

No pass rush equals easy win for the Trojans.

VAHuskerFan

Unfortunately the offense and defense has way to many issues and USC is going to expose them, gonna be a route 52-13

Ted Fuller

No one on the field is looking at the stands. Ask Penn State how their white out has been working this year.

Suicide Slush Puppie

We're not disciplined enough, and USC has more talent. This game will not be close.

Mike O

The Funeral Blacks will be no better than the Surrender Whites at changing the outcome.

John Ballew

The game will be won or lost in the trenches and special teams. The color of uniforms means nothing once the game starts.

Ron Joseph

No - but the cold might more so. After the game starts the noise will be filtered out. But if our D can stop them consistently and we establish the run game & control the clock - then I like our chances

Need a new offensive line coach

Arthur Cayette

Finally Nebraska sport writers are taking off their rose glasses and viewing the Line issues which has been growing (girth not strength) since Solich days when I saw the first fat lineman.

Robert Lloyd

Dana Holgorson doesn't know what a run first offense is. I love the aggressive nature of his offenses but we will NEVER be great without being run first. Run first and then air raid.

Patrick O'Brien

If we hadn't lost to Michigan I would have felt it was a one off. The lack of adjustments looks like a coaching issue with multiple coaches offense and defense. The offensive line is pathetic and needs an upgrade.

Joe Kuphal

Nebraska has to prove it is not the same old story…until they do by definition it is.

Jon Howser

Incompetent coaching staff, admitted out coached, the defensive coordinator didn’t even know who was playing in the second half

Joe Hegarty

Need to come up with an offensive that fits the talent we have but doubt that will happen.

No big deal. Recovery on the way

Leave these boys alone. They are going to start believing the BS and senseless criticism y'all spew.
