NU @ NW Week

[FNG]

spread open at huskers 6 point favorite. Now has moved to 7 to 7.5 this morning. U/O on game total is at 48 to 48.5

I truly wonder if Northwestern is going to try and make a passer out of their QB.

He killed Nebraska last year with his feet. Thorson, 9 rushed, 126 yards. You do the math average. Ok, 14 ypc.

Nebraska should win it, easily.

This will make the fifth road win in the six game B1G history between the teams. Nebraska has the lone home win on the Kellogg Westerkamp hail mary. Otherwise, it would be the home team had lost every game.

But so far this year he has 24 rushes for -2 yards. He been sacked 11 times this year. His best rushing game this year was Ill St. game 12 for 30

Oregon Prukop 20 rushes, 97 yards
Wyoming Allen 7 rushes, 7 yards
Fresno State Chason Virgil 6 rushes, -3 yards

I am hoping Northwestern keeps him in the pocket. Nebraska seems to have a problem with running QBs.

It looks like the Northwestern offensive line is really bad. Justin Jackson ain't doing so hot either.

The fact that people are calling this a trap game is hilarious to me.

I think people are just paranoid after seeing what's gone on the first few weeks around the country.

We know Northwestern. We know what they do, and they've gotten worse at doing it.

 

[HuskerInSecLand]

We need to move our student section up there because this is going to be their worst nightmare.

I don't see their problem. We knew Oregon was going to get yards on the ground and it would come from several sources including Prukop.
The others, 1 and -.5 YPC?

Pelini had a problem with running quarterbacks but that is YSU's problem now.

Hasn't he had some nagging injuries this year so far.

Seriously contemplating making a lot of free money on this game.

7.5 that's funny, in retro that's also how all my vag cash burned hole in pocket

I agree. The paranoia, I think, comes from performances in the past under previous coaching staffs.

Their QB got loose on a couple huge scrambles last season while the boys were in "don't give a shit" mode last season. Our oline got it's shit pushed in. Improvements in attitude and Oline have been evident this season. We should win by at least two tds.

He looked like he was dragging a freaking anchor. I don't see that happening again.

Huskers will look flat at the start -- but then remember last year
aaaand overcome with a win

 

[corn train]

Seems to contradict the overlook theory
