Nebraskafootball SquareOffs

Liked what I saw.

Didn't get man handled like last year. S&C is finally paying dividends. We still need to clean up things in the area of penalties and execution.

Team looked bigger. Offensive line seems stronger. A few playmakers on both sides. Not real crazy about playing so soft in defensive backfield but guess they did not want to get beat deep. Hopeful!

Effort - they played hard till the end, which they haven't always done the last two years.

We saw for the first time in years our players showing they can play with anybody. We need some running backs, but then we are good to go.

Progress was there in terms of tackling, O/D line play, good offense decision making, and overall depth. No progress in turnovers and bad penalties and being our own worst enemy.

I see hope. Let's add consistency to hope and we should turn some heads this year. We need to stop the mental errors (time mgmt, fumbles, penalties). There is no margin of error. Fix these =Progress

Even the announcers who normally hate us saw progress. Nebraska won the trenches half of the time, offense got north and south quick, linebacker play was solid finally. This team is much improved

Could have been 38-31. Should have been 45-31. But was 52-17. For every 10 good snaps there's always one drive killer. Glad that the offense went North to south and limited the sideline play. GBR

It's all about the big uglies in the trenches, and they have vastly improved.

Progress is there but quite honestly the celebrating of moral victories against upper echelon teams is getting a bit tired. 52 -17 is 52-17. Its a thrashing.

Huskers have it together much more this year than the last 3. Offense has so many weapons and the O line is one of the best in Big 10. Ohio St Defense is down from last year.

.Based on nothing but Husker optimism.

I think the Huskers have a legitimate shot in this game due to their experience on the offensive line. Run effectively and protect the QB keep the Buckeye offense on the sideline. TOP is key.

Yes. The Buckeyes have legitimate holes on defense, at least as far as experience goes.

Experience edge will get the Huskers off to a good start in the game. Buckeyes may pull away late due to a talent gap but it'll be closer than the "experts" think 38-20 tree nuts.

i think we see AD return to form like his freshman year...close game , can we pull out a win in the empty horseshoe?
