Our pass d has been bad and if minn can throw for 300 any team in our league can

Sean Fluharty

I'm sure he'll have a career day, just like many others have had. This secondary has given me no reason to think otherwise.

every game this year the other teams QB's have had one of their best passing games ever

Dan Cubrich

Yes they have, and not only that, but every one of them has looked like a Heisman contender against Nebraska's badly coached secondary.

Kevin Hamilton

The team will make the QB look like an all world player again.

I am going to guess, Northwestern has a break out day passing, if they don't, they lose.

John Ross Clark

We give up 300 yards to everyone.

Dan Cubrich

More like 300 yards or more.

Jim Stiver

If there is no pressure on the QB he will have a field day. I just wish our dbs would turn around when the ball is coming. That's on Banker to teach them to do that. I am so disgusted with the defensive coordinator it isn't funny. Bring back Charlie Mcbride.

We are going to run the ball and control the clock limiting there passing yards

Eric D Ludvigsen

I hope that is just under 200. They will likely have more success against us than their average, but our secondary played a much better second half against MN so Im hopeful it continues.

Danny Baker

I think the defense steps up, plus Northwestern's passing numbers are not that spectacular.

David LaFever

If pressure is put on QB and DBs learn to turn around.

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 🎈

SEW

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.
