Abdullah = complete back

Rex abdulah and heard in the diamond and don't stop running it till they stop us which IMHO not to many teams we face can.

When Rex returns to full-time starter status, Abdullah is going to be running even that much harder when he gets his snaps......

This is a very good thing. I'm telling ye folks........as our Defense gets even slightly better over time, we have the best chance in my eyes to win this Big 10 Conference this season.

If we do don't be braggin we had the best offense in the history of the B1G. Have to ban ya to the Wisky board if ya do it to anyone besides Smart.

NU will certainly be in the running for the Legends Division, but I'm gonna need some more Dumb and Dumber kool-aid before I get too confident.
Although Nebraska has a great rcvr corp and what appears to be a more mature/consistent Martinez to deliver the ball to them, NU relies on the run as their primary means of success. My BIG question mark.. Is the O-line capable of giving this offense the ability to establish the run?

None of the B1G 10 teams that NU plays are complete, but each has their own defensive strengths and unfortunately rushing defense is in the majority.
