Tanner Lee is likely out meaning O'Brien will draw the spot start. He could surprise some.

Patrick is the first QB in years that throws while moving in the forward motion. He looked good against MN and really surprised us when running and scrambling. He needs a team to win but it can be done... GBR.

Arlie Rauch

He will be fine. It's finally his turn, and he will show what he can do. Wouldn't it be fantastic if he pulled out an impossible win?!

Jay Safford

He looked pretty good against MN but the line is so bad. If the line can give him any time I think he will do ok.

He holds onto the ball for way too long. PSU will be eating him alive all game

Dave Scott

sadly, langsdorf will continue to place the team in jeopardy and Patrick will not be able to overcome langsdorfs pathetic attempt at being a coach. absent langsdorf and riley, Patrick will do fine.

Rich Leffler

The offensive line cannot or will not be able to protect him. Without protection Penn State will continue to sack him throughout the game. Otherwise I think that he would do ok, maybe 1 interception.

James Traut

Poor OL and no running game. PSU can tee off from the beginning of the game going at the QB.

Danny Baker

It won't matter who is Q-backing the offense. The O-line will still be the same.

Fred Gibson

If we cant beat Northern Illinois, Northwestern, or Minnesota, how the hell are we gonna beat an actual good team like Penn State or Iowa?

Matt Shalberg

Inexperience and HORRIBLE I MEAN ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE OFFENSIVE LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Randy Wolf

It will be the defense that loses the game. No way neb wins.

TXHusker

Not with this O line

Chris Phillips

He's a step or two back from Lee with reading the D and getting rid of the football, so I think he'll take a lot of sacks. It's going to be a real ugly game I'm afraid. Maybe 100 - 0.

Any venue is a good venue, we're in a bowl. Remember where it all began? The Gothem Bowl

Doug Ross

I'm going!

Dick Plock

this is the worst bowl there is we deseve cause little rhule wont get rid of his buddies foley was forced to get rid of Mcguire and Sattersuck we lost at least three game ayear because of these schmucks

Chad Alexander

It's a baseball stadium plus New York sucks!

Bob Healey

No! I was going to Phoenix! Playing in the cold in a baseball stadium. NU got the worst bowl. Don't ride the subways.

Bill Scheef

Baseball stadiums are NOT conducive to FB games...sight lines and angles to the field are designed for baseball and not FB. Will save the $3 to $4,000 dollars and watch it 10 feet from my icebox, and bathroom...Plus, who knows what type of Husker team will we be seeing...Too many nopes for me.

Loren Zimmerman

New York City? Crime ridden, money hungry locals; no way.

Robert Lloyd

No one should risk their life for a football game in hell's pit.

Doug Einsel

And it NYC

Gary Wall

We live in Southern California, toooo cold for us--watch on TV

Bruce Jakubowski

Cold weather bowl. This sucks. Reminds me of the "Gotham" bowl...

Yeah, but it's time to use him. No moire Secrets!

David Dahlkoetter

Very good athlete. Won't make a ton of plays, but can be a serious threat catching the football.

Rich Hovorka

specially designed plays

Loren Zimmerman

He's an athlete, and a good one. He's to valuable to be sitting on the sidelines. He needs to be part of the rotation.

Robert Lloyd

It just seems he isn't a true QB and maybe this (TE) is where he should have been all along. And now with several leaving the position this could be perfect. Nothing is "hidden" these days.

Visitor

Double H is the best athlete on the field.

He needs a lot of time learning how to run behind his pads. If he does not learn that, he is going to get hurt. He also does not come across as a real fluid athlete. Strong and fast for sure but really do not see much flexibility and vision as a runner.

Mike O

This works if Rhule gets a great qb in the portal. Kaelin didn't play a down even though he could have played in four games. And now he's gone. One blindside sack and Raiola is down for the count and Haaberg is back at qb. I do give Haaarberg an extra A for effort as always.
