Tennessee has no defense. They allowed 608 yards against Vanderbilt, 704 vs Missouri and 635 vs Kentucky.

Wade Williams

We can play with TN, especially given their defensive woes. However, we will probably need to score in the upper 30's due to our own against good competition. However, where the bigger picture is concerned, the 2nd Coming of our Lord is far more imminent than our ascension back to relevancy in CFB!

Better team if they show up with some fire.

Shelly Baker

Nebraska has more want to... win that is. Nebraska is just as fast and athletic. Riely knows how to win bowl games. With Tommy A we win for sure, and without him we stll run the ball down there throaght and win.

Ruben Espinoza

yes

Stephen Johnson

I guess it all depends on the ANGLES the defense take on tackling. At least that is what Banker said. But is that an opinion we can trust???

Riley is NOT the coach to bring this program back to respect. He is a nice guy but beyond that he is not the coach for a major college powerhouse.

Norman Curfman

Coaching. The philosophy of both the DC and OC are ok for mediocre middle of the pack and down.,but will not win consistently playing top rated teams..

Katie Hobson

We are going to get killed. We don't have a qb, no Westy, No Gerry, and on and on... I don't know why I wasted a bunch of money and time to go down to get made fun of and embarrassed...

Coaching for Nebraska concerns me immensely as far as scheme and play calling goes. Lets get to far with the special teams issues.

Not after what I saw in Iowa game

Tennessee has no defense. They have allowed 500+ yards per game in their last 3 games. It doesn't matter who plays quarterback for us.

Feature back is important to have but DEPTH is also CRITICAL. If don't have a feature back then either then depth chart is flooded with talent. But in the Big Ten you better have a GREAT 2nd and 3rd string to make it through the season. With EJ it helped he was so quick he didn't take huge hits

Terry Barker

Nebraska was always most stable when we had a feature back that can actually "carry" the team with his legs.

Ron Joseph

Nebraska in the past was successful with one top back. We've fallen on hard times because we haven't developed or recruited a great back. But the others need to be developed so we have a pipeline of backs like we use to have.

Roger Craig & Tom Rathman ring a bell ? Not only a dynamic duo playing for NU, but also for the 49ers !! YES we want multiple RB’s to rotate in & out to keep their legs fresh!! GBR 🎈

Look at the success in the playoff, the teams have 2-3 capable RB's they use to keep them healthy and offer the D different looks. Johnson was unique, most backs can't take that many snaps a season and stay healthy and sharp.

PJ SAid

Every good team, including the NFL, will rotate backs on a regular basis. This last year Nebraska should have used a 2nd running back more often - NEB is lucked out EJ stayed healthy.
