Danny Baker

Want to see what the new offense will look like.

Craig Casper

Because it has the biggest opportunity to suck.

David Moore

Passing scheme and how the running game looks will be what's meaningful. Linebacker may be as big an issue, but how they fair against our offense isn't necessarily indicative of performance against other teams.

Buster Crabb

Theoretically the defense will be further along, but I want to see where Riley is taking the bus.

Kevin Hamilton

Interested in seeing solid consistency on both sides of the ball.

Robert Lloyd

This always seems more difficult for a new system and for it to jell quickly. I want to see a great running game develop and an assortment of QBs to look at. Is Nabity (splg?) going to break into the rotation? And most importantly... will they run on first down? If not, it will be a long season.

I just can't wait to see how our D does in a simplified system that turns them loose. I think it will be a good thing

Christian Bengel

It's obvious how much impact the defense can have, just look back at the 2009 Huskers. The offense was horrible, but the defense nearly won us the conference championship.

T David Andrew M

If your defense is so good they score more consistently than an offense, things are good...Playstation Coaching 101

Faye Cook

A great defense can save the game for an not so great offense. stop the other guy from scoring, and you win, win, win.

Matt Maxwell

I just want to see them fly around and make plays. Go Blackshirts!

Kris Kazlauskas

I am excited about the development of the quarterbacks, but I want to see a defense that doesn't suffer blowout losses.

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

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
