Nebraska...not feeling Frosty anymore

[THE_WIZARD_]

Michigan 417 Nebraska 2

[JRB]

One of the toughest things to do in college football is to beat a quality opponent on the road the week after a big emotional home win. It is never easy to win in Lincoln, Nebraska, and Michigan's got to be beaten up a bit after such a tough game with the Spartans. It's going to be a major challenge for Michigan to hang in there in this one-- the Wolverines cannot afford another slow start, because I think it's obvious this Michigan team does not do well when it's forced to throw.

Nice try on the reverse-hex voodoo, Wiz.

The Huskers will play their best game of the season so far, come next week. I'm expecting it.

I make the Huskers at least a 3 point favorite. Probably more by kickoff.

Liney... I'll make a bet that mich wins by 10

UNL tried to give today's game away. It shouldn't have been close

Game recap

[entropy]

“At times it felt like a home game. It's one of the special things about being here (at Nebraska) and playing here.”
— Pelini on the NU crowd at Ryan Field

Btw... NW has the worst stadium I have seen

[entropy]

Fitzgerald said post game that they had to go to a silent count in the 4th Q due to noise

[Mike]

Any word on how serious Burkhead's injury is?

[WM Wolverine]

Martinez has a very good deep ball, he's going to land a couple or more of those if M continues to play 1 deep safety.

[THE_WIZARD_]

Martinez is only dangerous via the air for two reasons...we do have great receivers...I mean the best as a group we have ever had...and when he starts burning you running the ball and the DB's starts inching up he can burn you deep. But teams that stuff our run render NU pretty much useless on offense. M will stuff our run and DR will run wild.

M 817.5 NU 2.5

Entropy:

Yes re NW's stadium. It's JV. Hell, maybe even junior high. But, the visiting fans of big programs do dominate. Which is fun.

M >>>>>>>>>>> Purdue
OSU=Purdue
OSU >>>>>>>>>> UNL

I have to think Wizard is generally correct with his prediction, but it is a tad bit of a homer prediction.

M 820, UNL 2

[WM Wolverine]

Purdue, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota & Illinois are awful. The rest the B10 isn't much better.
