Nebraska 37
WF 17

Quick recap of Nebraska game from last Saturday, based on one game, so take it with a grain of salt:.

1. Lucky looked great. The other backs looked better-than-expected. RB depth was suppose to be a problem. I don't see that as one anymore.

2. This is the best offensive line NU has had this decade. I watched the Bill Callahan Show over lunch today, and a consistent thing I noticed was our linemen just burying people off the snap, especially at the goal line. That's a good sign.

3. The defense looked quick to the ball. Overall, I was impressed with the D.

4. The wide receivers -- a supposed strength -- didn't look good. Too many drops; especially in the first half. I'm fine with that though, as I expect them to improve. With Purify coming back, as long as he's not drunk, it'll add another dimension to the offense.

It's tough to get too excited after one game, but my expectations for the season went up based on what I saw. Granted, it's Nevada -- but as this last weekend taught us, you can't take any win for granted.

After acknowledging that he was desperate, Dwight said "people will resort to saying things they know aren't true when they are desperate." That about sums it up!

NU 38
WF 14 1 TD By the D on an INT Late in the game.


PSU- A bunch (48)
ND- Not much (3)

Cornhuskers the winningest college football program of the last 50 years, both by winning percentage and number of wins.

How many yards did they run for? I'll save you the time. Two yards. Yeah, one dimensional offenses win a lot of games against more talented teams.

Like most domer fans you obviously don't know dick about football.

one dimensional teams don't do well? i remember a one dimensional team beating the skers 2 years in a row. one of the scores was 70-10, the other one was a little closer.

He said one dimensional teams don't do well against more talented teams. I believe that was a bunch of Solich's leftovers that got ran over that year and they clearly weren't more talented.

You don't get me upset, because I know that you're a tool that doesn't know dick about football. Just another whiney domer fan with Husker envy.

So you're pretty good at predicting games? Did you predict that nd would lose their last three straight games by an average of 26 points?

envy? copare the all time records, wins, percentage, national titles, heisman trophy winners, strength of schedule and i'm sure there are many more.

maybe you and damn can do a touchdown dance and hope the skers can muster at least 3 against usc.

Typical nd fan douchebagery. Live in the now. Or, at least live in the recent. Your irish haven't mattered since the 80's. Since then NU has won three National Championships, while the dumers have dropped about nine straight bowl games by embarrassing margins...

Nice try!

fixed it for you.

since you want to talk recent history how have the skers done in the last 2 seasons? ND is 19-6.

19 - 7 isn't far from 18 - 9.

That question might backfire on you at the end of this season.

Really, Logan? Funny because no one else here has any problem remembering that I am a Michigan fan.

Consequently, I don't make it a habit to run around falling back on outdated historical facts to bolster my teams current standing. Maybe if I did it'd be easier for you to remember, but I refuse to stoop to that level.

Then again, I have been a Michigan fan since day one. So I can't speak from the position of turning on my original team or maybe I'd better understand your position.

Hey now Logan in all fairness I attempted to talk about history and the past with NU and you called me out on it. I think it is fun to have a debate but you cant switch back and forth like that.
