The UCLA pass offense will be too much for NU slower DBs & LBs, hence the DL will be spread out to help against passing and susceptible to the UCLA rushing offense.

With a Top 10 rushing defense, the Huskers can make an opponent one dimensional.

We have stopped the run all year...come out with a purpose and put pressure on qb and we can win this game!

Dan Cubrich

Since West Coast Riley will be certain to allow Armstrong to pass 40 to 50 times, as usual he'll be the key for Nebraska to win or lose this game. Going by what we saw this season, Tommie will throw a few picks, which will lead to another loss.

Robert Dodd

if the (D) plays like they can, that Paul guy could have a longgg afternoon!!

Stephen Johnson

They have done a decent job all year against the run.

Robert Hutsell

They will make UCLA 1 dimensional...hope the pass defense is ready for a future NFL quarterback. Could be embarrassing.

We have talent in the room. They will have the same learning curve that Emmett had. He was an average back at the beginning of last season and look how he blossomed. That said, if a solid back is available, take him of course

Bill Scheef

Nebraska is a 3rd Tier team in the BIG 10 and an after thought nationally and our expectations for recruiting should reflect that. With the powers in the BIG 10 nationally Nebraska's "good old days..." are just. Swept into the dust bin of what once was...Sorry, but...it's the truth as I see it.

Adveresity often brings out the best in a team.

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
