Better overall and we have got more overall weapons on Offense than Wisconsin and yet Abdullah has the numbers

Scott Holbrook

I like his vision better, he sees down field really well!

Derrick Jordan

His runs are more than just gaping holes created by the o-line. He actually makes defenders miss as well as attempt to run through defenders. Gordon is a great back, benefits from an awesome o-line.

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

Doug Ross

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.

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.
