Steven Bailey

Mike Rileys' bowl record.

Ryan MacKay

New Cornerbacks coach and split duties on special teams will provide better punt and KO coverage. Gives Huskers much needed boost.

Gene Baker

Nebraska has a Good team great coaches and we get better every time we take the field.

Rich Regan

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

Joe Lazure

We should get our injured players healthy. We've been a great team when healthy

Keith Petrie

It depends on the health of the offensive line and Tommy and hey... we're playing in Nashville... nothing like a home field advantage. Just ask the Badgers! Darn... did I say that?

Randy Hill

Huskers match up well against the Vols. If they can contain Dobbs, they will win. GBR

Scott M Goertzen

Were not a bad team, and Tennessee isn't a world beater.

Valerie Gilmore

I don't think the football team wants to sit around all winter with bird feathers in their mouths, look for them to come out and every body say....'WERE THE HELL WAS THIS TEAM ALL YEAR?'

Marty Norris Davis

Both teams have had their ups and downs this season. We have this! Go Big Red!

Michael Peters

I think if we are healed up we can play with anyone in the country.

Stephen Johnson

We have the talent. Time for injuries to heal. Time for the OC to learn how to run the option.

Iowa letdown.

Dan Cubrich

I'll be surprised if we are within 20 points of them by game's end, the way our coaches coach. The whipping we received by an average Iowa team gave me much pessimism about this game.

Jody Acree

I'm nervous because I just watched a replay of the beatdown we took from Iowa. TN has much better athletes.

Dave Scott

mike riley mark banker and danny langsdorf..... enough said... totally out matched....

Pete Volquardsen

terrible finish will carry over to bowl

Will the Huskers beat UCLA with true freshman TJ Lateef at QB?

There are 10 other players on the offense.

Robert Lloyd

Let Emmitt and TJ run and run and run and we'll have a victory.

James Smith

Home field advantage in front of family and friends. He will relive his high school glory HUSKERS 27 ucla 24

Mark

Die hard husker

Heart My Doghead

Mr L is from Socal, therefore highly motivated to excel...Huskers by 15

jerry williams

Adveresity often brings out the best in a team.

AK-460Mag Nurse

We have yet to lose two in a row this season, and I think I formation with TJ and EJ has the potential to be devastating. GBR 🤘

Brad Bredenkamp

They won’t come out flat like they did last year. It will be a team win with a defensive or special teams score.

James Key

yes if EJ has plus 100 and TJ has 50 Run and 166 Pass. Then yes. All bets off if over 2 TO.

Ron Joseph

Time for the O to show their potential in support TJ. Once he gets comfortable with the game, he will add a dimension to the game we haven't had- dual threat QB.

Not enough players with the "it factor".

VAHuskerFan

Unfortunately we still have a terrible O-line and now Freshman QB a Defense that can’t stop anyone, I don’t have much hope for the season ending on a positive note. Lose by 17

Will the black-out home game vs. USC Trojans amplify the Huskers’ chance to shine?

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
