Nebraska's defense has been trending up and our front line will do their job allowing the LBs and secondary to step up.

I think Nebraska's run defense is much better this year. I worry about the pass defense.

they'd better! I think Nebraska has the edge in the passing Game and Special Teams. depending on Ameer's condition I'd say we're even in the running game. As far as Defense...DB's and Safety's we've got the edge. Backers and D Line Need to come in there with an Attitude! Hit the Badgers Hard and make them Hurt with that cold weather. GBR!

This time around as opposed to 2012 we are light years ahead in team speed enough that if they are stupid enough to try that sweep again? everytime they try it, it will result in loss of yardage. Wiscy is slow as hell as a team. Wiscy is not fast enough to beat us on the edge or anywhere on the field period

I love my Huskers and truly hope they bring their A Game and win. With that said, they've made it real clear, the last couple of years, that when on the big stage, they can't quite measure up and usually lose in embarrassing fashion. I fear Saturday will be no different. Still hoping they'll win though. GBR!!!

Same thing for the 7th season and every "big game". Nothing willl change the fans and media's perception until a Bo Pelini coached team proves it on the field. Nothing this year has demonstrated anything has changed. Nebraska's best doesn't show up week after week and there is no sign of consistent improvement. Take Ohio State as an example, they have improved significantly thru this season while Nebraska has been the same for 7 seasons. Isn't that at some level coaching? Where is the accountability of the coaches to demonstrate an ability to take this team to a higher level?

Recent history has proven that Nebraska doesn't perform well under the bright lights against the big boys. Until they prove me wrong, I'll continue to be pessimistic about their chances in big games.

even in the loss to Northwestern Gordon managed over 250 yards on the ground. We won'st stop their run. But if we can keep the out of the end zone and limit big plays through the air it won't matter.

It was a wise COACHING decision not to let Ameer play further against Purdue. Looked like he could have gone back in after the brace and some treatment, but why risk it. Two weeks to get him ready for Wisky...

Abdullah physical shape will help him recover right on time for the next game....GBR

I think Nebraska's defense will raise their play to compensate. Also the offense will mentally adjust. They all want to win.
MCL sprain to heal up completely in 2 weeks......no way. Unfortunately, it will bother him for the remainder of the season.

His freakish ability to stop and cut on a dime is what makes him who he is and even if he's close to 100% he won't get much practice and I guarantee that injury is going thru his head come Wisconsin game time. I really worry about him coming out and cutting hard the first time and re-injuring it but this time worse.

Because it shows that the coaches of this team have no clue what they are doing.
ReplyBecause recruits can see what most Nebraska fans can see, and that is Pelini is really good at yelling, but not coaching.
ReplyI don't think it hurts recruiting so much when taken simply as a "loss" as it does kids not wanting to play for this lunatic, and parents agreeing with them.
ReplyBo Pelini is not fun to play for in games when he scowls and yells till he is blue in the face. He should be calling plays to win the game and keep calm and so keep players calm.
ReplyAfter watching the Nebraska game vs. Wisconsin, would YOU want to play for Nebraska? Even old Husker players (in the NFL and elsewhere) were saying how embarrassing this week was going to be at work.
ReplyBest players want to play for championships and they sure don't want to be associated with regular embarrassments like this.
ReplyNot just yes, but HELL YES!
