I am in between on this one but I thought the comeback showed lots of character and guts. I am with Riley - the team really competes. I just don't think this year's team has all the pieces in place. I don't really fault anyone in particular - not enough of an expert to say how to fix it.

Gerry Greim

the team fought back and didn't give up...if they can learn from this get out there and win

Jerry Williams

What happened the first half, not sure could have been the climate change having relatives in Fla, I know what it is like this time of year. But, they showed they could last the 60 minutes while Miami began to crap out.

John DeCastro

adjustments are keys to success. Games aren't aways going to go as planned early. The resolve to fight, unlike last year's Wisconsin game, and the know how to make adjustments - again unlike last year will help

Trip Conroy

They certainly never stopped fighting, nice to see...unfortunately that doesn't win games and they will still go 6-6 at best this year

Dick Plock

We didn't give up. We kept on playing!!! GBR

Rod Shuman

People are WAY over reacting. These were gonna be two of our hardest games all year and we barely lost. BYU has proved their worth and kayaa is probably the best passer we see all year

Scott Chastain

I STILL have great confidence in this staff and it definitely was a learning moment for many of the players and especially Armstrong. I feel terrible for the young man but I think he grew up in the game.

OffexchangePro

Last couple of years it was "we can't adjust in game or at the half." Now these adjustments are made and everyone is upset. Hey, no one said this was going to be easy.

Losing the first 3 quarters 10-30, turnovers played horribly and unacceptable

You can't win playing catch up like that!

Manuel Jimenez

We only got back in it because Miami thought it was over and could not turn it back on.

Alan J Farrell

Worried about lack of focus.

Danny Baker

Still no pass defense. Non-existent pass rush and DBs who can't cover.

Stephen Johnson

The only reason the huskers came back in Q4 is because Miami took their foot off the gas. The Huskers are the team in quarters 1, 2, 3.

Randy Henkel

Same as before slow starts. Riley to old to turn around a program headed the wrong direction.

Chris Phillips

Besides avoiding an epic Bo like embarrasment, the come back doesn't mean anything. Miami got so far ahead of us that they took their foot off the pedal and allowed us to make it close. When both teams were playing as hard as they could, Miami completely dominated us.

Rod Shuman

I rather show heart than get destroyed. We gave ourselves a chance to win at least. If we hadnt shot ourselves in the foot with penalties and drops first half is close too

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

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
